Updated Default SF2 Terrain by Piecemeal V 1.2

[Streakfalcon 57]

Weird huh? I just couldn't get it to work any other way. It would load using the GERMANYCE cat but the tiles were all cattywumpus.( I believe thats the technical term) And higglty pigglty too. but anyway it works and its great. Thanks

[+Dave 2,322]

Did you load it into SF2 only?

[Streakfalcon 57]

No, a merged SF2E and SF2I patched to Feb10.

[+Dave 2,322]

Well that why you had so many issues. It uses the desert.cat from SF2.

[+Dave 2,322]

Updated as of today with various bug fixes.

[+Stary 2,427]

Tried and I like it! Really good rework of original, with all the additional targets and objects. DS tileset fits nicely too!

 

bombing supplies in the downtown is a joy!

Great stuff! But what happened to all the trees? Can't find any:blink:

That's strange, since the tree.lod is included in the terrain file.

 

Just to be sure; here's the tree object file:

 

TREES.rar

 

Unzip this and throw the contents of the 'TREES' folder into the 'DESERT3' terrain.

Hej, thanks buddy! I must have gone blind:oops: Now I definitely spotted some palm trees here and there. I guess I just got used to farmlands heavily populated with trees from TK's desert terrain, while your desert 3.0 looks like a proper desert :) Once again a big thank you!:good:Desert 3.0 and updated campaigns gave the underdog SF2 a second life!

[+Piecemeal 450]

Glad to be of service my friend

 

 

Actually you might be interested to know that I'm working on an update for this terrain as I speak. Keep an eye open for it over the next month or so

 

 

Regards,

It certainly does freshen up an SF2 only install. Great work!

[SFP1Ace 33]

Piecemeal, could you fix this issue in your next update please? Thanks!

 

[Wrench 9,845]

it's a game issue caused by the pit1 lods. There's no fix for it, this side of TK. There are other shadow issues with terrain objects as well, but that's the most noticable

 

Best advice: go through the targets ini, line by line, and replace the pit1 with something innocuis (sp?), like oildrum1

Cheers, mate!

[SFP1Ace 33]

Actually I've found even better way to deal with it - Castshadow=FALSE in pit1.ini solved it pretty well. No shadow's better than borked shadow :]

[Wrench 9,845]

I like that even better! The pit1 DO have uses!

Are those objects were included? Or must be downloaded separately?

 

Also, There are some problem with anti-ship mission route; the ships showed on the ground. Is it true?

Edited March 2, 2011 by Agaphe

[+Dave 2,322]

Those items are already in it.

[AgapheM 4]

Those items are already in it.

 

But only some of them, right? Some ships (almost all of them) and "groundobject" were not included (as i've checked in desert3_types.ini)...., or maybe I was wrong?

No he put all of them in there....

[AgapheM 4]

Ok, maybe you need to check this archive again just to make sure. And so do I. Anyway, thanks for your help, sir. Great work

Hi

 

I just got SF2 after years away and downloaded your terrain and the campaigns for it. I haven't played SF1/WOV/WOE in ages, so I'm probably forgetting something very basic, but I can't get your terrains or campaigns to show up. I put the terrain in the game's Terrain folder (and also made a mod folder to see if that fixed the problem - it didn't) and it isn't showing up. My terrain folder only has desert.cat and the DESERT3 folder.

 

I also didn't see a campaigns folder, but I made one in the mod folder. Still nada.

 

Any help from anyone?
