Version 1.6.26 built locally from source; using sdl_mixer and freepats, probably doesn't matter in this case. I'm using Fedora Core 5, updated today. When I turn on expert mode in the configuration menu, then turn on weapon gauges, D2X-XL crashes. The end of the log did not seem relevant to this ...

The intro, enter system, and mine exit MVE's work fine for me now. But the robot breifing MVE's still play slow. This only happens when the text is being printed to the left, when the text is fully displayed, the MVE plays fine. Is there some kind of bottlemeck in the text rendering code? Offtopic ...

I now have working code to read oof polymodel files. :mrgreen: Yay!! :D Take as much time as you need to get it right. I can't model either or I would volunteer. :( Might I recommend using a system like the Freespace Upgrade for Freespace2 at Hard Light Productions? This would allow multiple ...

Would anyone like to reccomend good *free* complilers? Gladly. http://www.bloodshed.net/devcpp.html The BEST free C++ comiler for windows. But it hasn't been updated for over a year. If you wan't to use WxWidgets, a cross-platform gui library, then use: http://wxdsgn.sourceforge.net/ It is updated ...

Of course we are! It will be the coolest thing since you started the project.

Look around the D3 development section at PD, some of the OOF tools are opensource. (If you do not have enough info already)

Hires models first. I have already coded preliminary OOF reading functions, but I am not quite sure about the current OOF specs, and I need an OOF file to experiment with (e.g. the D4 Pyro model). http://www.dfiles.de/download/d4/misc/models/d4gx_2.zip This is the D4 Pyro GX in a D3 Hog file. Hope ...

I tried to open this zip in 7-zip 3.42. I didn't work. So I started to do some research. File is compressed using the PPMd algorithim. What is the PPMd algorithim? It is the proprietory new format used by Winzip 10.0. That is the only thing I can find that will open it. http://www.winzip.com ...

If you want to worship someone, worship the Almighty God. ;) Amen to that. now imagine this with novacron's HiRez textures and the D4 ship model This is coming tonight, novacron is releasing a demo pack tommorrow. Now we need to bug Valin Halcyon and Deidel for models and support. *watches keyboard ...

I don't think there is a easy way to prove unless you mail a copy of the reciept or something. That wouldn't work because many people buy D2 off of EBay like I did. Anyway, Great Work D3Hack! Is this complete? If not how much is left? Cna you post a changelog? And can't you just take the files you ...

Yay! With a few level makers, Valin Halcyon's models, and stuff like this, I see great things ahead.

Mabye he could add it to the 'when I'm really bored' todo list

And, Suncho, I agree to the organized code thing. I have worked with C++ some and realize how quickly code can get disorgainzed. Then changing things can get really ugly.

Adding *support* for something does not mean it has to be used. Clarification on MVE's: robot movies are slow. Other movies play fine. Video Card= Nvidia Geforce FX 5700LE, driver 81.98 official. Edit: Dediel, some of the stuff you have added was a lot of work; and seeing hi-poly pyro's and robots ...

Hi everyone; I've been hanging around for a while and decided finally to request a couple things. Better MVE handling: the *-h.mvl movies SHOULD be able to run good on my Athlon XP 1700. But they run at approximatly 2 fps. (No I do not have HQ Movies turned on.) If at least two people request a ...
