On the contrary, it's just what you need, being around other fellow modders and mappers will motivate you. Besides, Learn_More asked about the exact hexedits you made on the exe.
Make sure you garner as much information as you can from your time with him. It might shed more light on how the engine is designed and how it is placed in the exe.
Copy-cat I re-read your PM and I am confused as to why I need to download and install software. You will probably remember how I hate installing unnecessary (and potentially dangerous) software on my computers. I like keeping them lean and clean ;)
What exactly are you guys working on? Why am I needed (ie what can I add). All information regarding the .exe hacks are posted in the Last Resort forums and only involve hacking the screen resolutions. Nothing to do with colour depth.
The only other thing that was done was to allow us to use larger resolution textures.
I take it Learn_more is working on some sort of hack (directx hook?).
Errr, since I didn't get a reply I assume that the intention of my post came across wrong. I always fuck up the tone on posts, lol.
Let me try to rephrase my last post. Yes, I think it would be fun to come online and chat about the 32 bit colour side project but I am hoping you guys can handle it. I am really shitty at multi-tasking and at not getting distracted. I have a horrible problem with procrastination.
Although I would really love to see 32 bit colour get done I have to concentrate on working on the Last Resort launcher and the 2D menus right now.
My reluctance to join in has to do with my faults mainly.
- A new built-in custom chat interface. - Furrycat's modified menu caused bug in single player so added toggle - Modified graphics on LAN MP screens - Modified LR Launcher mod list background - Added blinking arrows on LR Launcher mod screen - Fixed text error on LR Launcher 2D menu screen - LR Launcher now replaces corrupt Swat.cfg and CustomChat.dat after a Swat 3 crash - LR Launcher tabs now "roll over" with mouse to give feedback to user - Added flashbang 3D model by [BBE]Drummer - Added high resolution textures for mission A - Fixed lighting error in mission A - Fixed dialog.dat file error in mission A - Fixed missions R, F, S corrupt entities in .SCN files - Added Stockholm mod by Furrycat (minus the Priest skins) - Fixed LR Launcher updating proper screen resolution info - A lot of miscellaneous code improvements in the Launcher.
I also have a few maps that I started improving the textures on.
