Yay! More campaigns! By the way, in snow and sand maps, you HAVE to use a platform to shoot dialogue! The drifting ground will change height under your "camera" with every load and wreck all your shots in humorous ways. You'll get characters talking framed from the neck down, or just thei...

Hmm not too bad, though it's very similar to the original story and also similar to a couple of mods already created. Could you innovate something more original? Maybe something without raiders, since that's obviously borrowed. Here's a thought - Why not continue the original Lugaru's story. At the ...

Ah you're willing to revise the script, awesome! The rotations may be off as well. I read what you wrote about Lugaru snapping to certain increments of rotation. So you're right, it could be a combo of scale, rotation and location. Yikes. I didn't save the above pictured example. So, instead I creat...

If you go back to your original Lugaru install (or unzip, actually, since it doesn't install) is fire visible there? Can we get some details on your upcoming campaign? Maybe a teaser or something/details/images, etc. I happen to have one in the works as well, though it's development hangs in the bal...

Ok, update on using the script. It's still functioning for me. But it's inaccuracy is killin' me. When the stationary Lugaru map objects are imported into BLender, their coordinates get fudged around. This makes it incredibly difficult to create multi-shape structures. Creating any sort of architect...

Are "Flame.png" and "Smoke.png" still in the "Textures" folder? Maybe you moved or deleted them by accident if editing textures.

And do they look correct if you view them?

All is well so far. I think this modification has taken hold very well.
Behold my expert level design skills:


Hopefully we can make 8+ characters per map work as well. But that's totally different.

So you're saying raising the object cap risks instability? Lugaru's engine is getting worse by the moment!

Ohhh, the script has a limit imposed, eh. Thanks, I'll have to edit it to work on my overstuffed maps. No problem then.

kehaar, surprisingly, my FPS didn't suffer too bad, and I don't have the best graphics card either. Hopefully the campaign maps won't make everyone's comps suffer too much.

Thanks for the tip, tannim.

The planned campaign will stretch Lugaru to it's limits. And beyond. For instance, map object limits.

A thing of the past.

Last level in campaign doesn't work. The zombie bonus level. Even crashes game. Anybody get it to work?

*EDIT Ok, found Lotus Wolf's fix. Thanks, Lotus. viewtopic.php?f=7&t=4633&start=135#p93448

Ok, for the record everyone, Rudel's system is working great for me. We've PM'ed a bit about it, but just wanted to make known that it does work as intended.

This mod may take a while, but at least it's able to move forward.

You speak of Z axis mesh jitter for Lugaru's terrain. I've found that only Snow and Sand do this. Grass does not. I edited heightmap.jpg to be entirely black. Even with a black heightmap Snow and Sand still had arbitrary Z jitter. Grass didn't. Physically, it makes sense, too. You're going to have r...

Excellent, thank you for the info!

If we succeed, this may open doors for other modders to use our improvements, the source will even be available.

Aha, thanks for the info! That is quite crazy! I'll see if I can make use of your workaround. Better be more cautious with my level design. If only there was undo's/redo's . . . Also on the table is increasing number of chars allowed, and adding more objects with better textural diversity. Ideally, ...
