Hello everyone,
Since I'm now on holidays and I got tired of flinging through portals, I thought it was time to get back on Plasma and continue working on some things.
I thought one of the biggest was more or less ready to be released, so here goes. I've been working on this for quite a time now. I'm messing again with things that "cannot work on Uru"... and got them working .
I was working on Myst V ages converted with Drizzle, in this case the Tiwah.
These pictures should explain quite well what I've been doing down there in the Shaft. They are quite big, sorry about that.
There are still some bugs here and there, but it works quite fine.
This is for use on a Complete Chronicles/PotS Uru install, you need to have the Myst V Ages converted with Drizzle for it to work. It might work on Alcugs Shards, but is totally untested.
This should work with or without the Offline-KI.
Download the attached content and follow the instructions.
[EDIT] Remember: you MUST make backups of the files you will edit ! In case anything goes wrong...
Legal note:
These are modified parts of Myst V files to modify the age on Uru-Complete Chronicles. You MUST own BOTH Myst V AND Uru-CC for it to work. I tried to release as little content copyrighted by Cyan as I could to make sure you do have both of them. Still, if Cyan asks me to remove those files, I will remove them.
It is not in any way approved/allowed by Cyan, so you are the only one responsible when applying the changes.
You might ask me "What about the other Ages ?"
Well, they basically work fine. But there is still a lot of work to be done in them, and the number of files required to make them work is insane (not to mention I would rather avoid distributing so many parts of Cyan's files, even though there is no model or textures in it).
It also needs a lot of time to do the fixes (most of them are made BY HAND), so I don't feel like spending more hours just to get partially working Ages.
The best would be to create an executable to automate all the dirty work, so that I can spend time on more advanced fixes (things that are specific to the Age). Also, this would allow people to modify easely the Age themselves without having to share all those files. However, my knowledge of C++ and HSPlasma doesn't allow me to create such a converter.
So I probably won't spend a lot more of time on this as long as I don't have a proper converter. I have better things to do.
