Ok... This modification wont change ANY graphics of the units? Just makes the say... Hero Overlord a Marine?

Questions:

1) What do you mean the spells will look cooler? New Animations?
2) When CAN I TEST IT!!!

EDIT: Just thought of an Uber cool idea... Make your main heros have unique voices... Like when you click them it will have a actual voice

Well, here goes.

1) To make the spells look cooler, I am actually going to DL some of the really cool looking animations from SME(Sovereign Modding Empire). Then, I'll add those into the MPQ. Then, after I add some of those animations, I'll change what some of the spells so, via Aresenal. So, let's say Psionic Storm needs some sort of "water" damage, I'll add EMP Shockwave to give it a watery feel. If that makes sense...

2) You'll be able to test it when I have testable matieral.

As for the voices, I would do that, except that boost the modifications file size immensley. I'm talking from like 1-2Mb's to like 15-30Mb's... That would be WAY too large for SEN. But, it is possible, and quite easy to do.

You know, I may consider doing this. But, if I do, I'll do it later on!

ADDITION:

Well, I am strting on the first towns quests and some mini-bosses right now.

Progress has slowed down a little but because I am getting my license soon. So, on that note, I may not be working on the map as much. But, progress will NOT, and I repeat will NOT stop. It just may put on hold for a litle while. Since I'll be legal to drive and all.

Well, progress has picked up again. I am actually a decent way into the map. I may have a demo released soon. But, if I don't get one out soon. I am in no hurry too rush myself into the completeion of this map. Anyways, been awhile since I've updated but, just keeping the few that are interested at bay! tongue.gif Roffles...

I've been slow on updating this. tongue.gif

Right now, I changed a lot of the terrain. And it is really looking beautiful. But, I have very bad news. Very bad indeed. I need help with my computer again. I can't open StarForge so now I am unable to do triggers. If anyone can help me, I'll be forever happy! tongue.gif The problem can be found here:

Well, as far as trigger production is coming: 0%. I can't open SCXE because I am too lazy to re-place the sprites. But, the terrain is looking not too shabby. Overrall I would say maybe... Get ready...




A whole whopping 1%! w00t.gif [sarcasm]I know, I know, there's a lot done![/sarcasm]

What is your computer? Dell, Gateway, Compaq, Hewlett Packard?
Report, edit, etc...Posted by Forsaken on 2005-07-17 at 22:57:23
Sony Vaio.


It has to do with missing registry files. Something isn't allowing me to open SF, as well as a few other programs that need that file. So, I am assuming the registry file it needs is missing. So, I am trying to find someone that can help me!

Hmmm.... I had this same problem with my StarForge awhile ago. Did you uninstall StarForge then reinstall it? Try searching for the Registry files on your computer to see if they were sent somewhere else. confused.gif
Report, edit, etc...Posted by Forsaken on 2005-07-17 at 23:07:21
Well, I've re-installed 3-5 times. It has nothing to do with SF. It has to do with components on my computer. I know this becausem there are afew other files that have the same errors as SF does. I would google the registry files, but I haven't a clue what too look for.

All it says is just Registry Files? Nothing rather specificwise?

His map hasn't been working because of recent computer problems. sad.gif

Well, I've been busy. But, I have a lot of the terrain done(which takes me the longest). But, I already know what most of the triggers will be like(I plan them in my head) so, the triggers for the beginning will take about 3 hours.

As for the missing files, I have no idea what's missing. I'm assuming that they are registry files. But, I have no idea.

I see. So this map is going nowhere. lol. Well i'm sure you will eventually get to it. I think you should ask someone to do it with you to help you out with it. You got nothing to loose. It will get you started and able to get things done faster.

The only solution that I could think of about fixing StarForge would to post your problem in the StarForge thread and see if anyone helps you. Mainly Heimdal because he knows what to do with StarForge because he made it. biggrin.gif
Report, edit, etc...Posted by Forsaken on 2005-07-18 at 20:36:13
Well, I might ask someone for help. (Someone the community loves...) But, as of now, I'm able to do it. It's just my computer took a dump after I re-formatted. But, the longer I can't start triggering the better the terrain gets! Roffles...

ADDITION:
I've had a thread in SF for like 3 days now. Heim hasn't even acknowledged it. mellow.gif

ADDITION:
Let's see, today I have done:

-Some more terraforming for the next town.
-Storyline Text
-Thinking about how to introduce everyone to the game(Trailer type of thing)

What I am doing now:
-More terraforming
-Thinking about changing a few things with the characters
-REALLY wanting to fix my StarForge so I can start on triggers.

Thanks for the encouragment veryone. w00t.gif
