Assistance Request for the TDM Community: Mandrasola Goes Standalone

[Sotha]

Mandrasola will crash after 2.0 update, because werebeast is not completed.

 

I propose we replace were beasts with zombies.

 

Could someone please do it on my behalf? I really, *REALLY* dislike opening old missions of mine. (Might sound silly, but please understand. Consider it as my kryptonite.)

 

You need to do the following:

* Replace the werebeast AI classnames to point to zombies. All the werebeasts were in the tunnels, I think there were two or three.

* Replace any readable references from werebeasts to zombies. I have done this already, you just need to implement the changes into the readable editor. See below.

* Test and see everything works. Especially pay attention to zombie paths, they don't get stuck, readable text isn't overflowing from pages, etc.

* Add your name into the mission readme "thanks"-section and give credit for converting the mission TDM standalone-ready.

* Dmap and repackage.

 

Workload estimate timewise: 1-2 hrs.

The idiots couldn't even defeat a few animals zombies and now they are hiding in my basement. Even a hired thug cannot swing a sword nowadays! Pathetic!

I sent Julien to discreetly buy some fire and poison arrows holy water and fire arrows so those cowards can finally venture down to the caves and get rid of those pathetic creatures scaring them this time.

Thanks in advance for helping! I really would appreciate if someone would do this for me!

Will do.

[Obsttorte]

Allright, replaced the werebeasts and fixed the readables. However, your mage is not working properly. The magical projectiles do no fly anymore and the shaders are unknown. Will try to fix this.

[Obsttorte]

Fixed. Uploading pk4...

2.0 ready version of Mandrasola. It starts fine and everything seems to work now.

 

Excellent! Thank you so much!

 

You have done a great service to both me and the whole TDM community.

[Moonbo]

Wait, TDM has mages that shoot projectiles? How does one set that up?

[Sotha]

One of the mage AI does that by default. The archmage IIRC. The lower level mage has a melee shock spell attack.

Excellent! Thank you so much!

If you want to thank me, please test the new version of the ASE exporter script with the prefabs you've once built. (See the respective thread)

[Sotha]

Okay, I'll do it on my next opportunity.

It's good to know that this FM will make it for 2.0, and that as a community we're there to help each other out.
