3DZ Modelling and RS sequence (limited)
MarkEAW replied to MarkEAW's topic in EAW - Skinning, Modding, Add-ons
oh, that. Yeah I have no shame, I'm more or less saying even though a lot of technical stuff comes sorta easy for me at times, this is an other area that's not racking my brain. Its a projected I was close to being able to do, up to a certain point, but the "short cut" is to have an experienced modeler edit and write up some new text. I'm a believer this can be documented correctly once and for all. I also think once its documented that it can be improved either through programming of the tools or game.....But documenting the methods and therefore the flaws needs to be done first to improve anything. A well, life's a bitch sometimes. :) -

Your referring to the old tool version workarounds?, yup, no shame, just pointing it out. -
3DZ Modelling and RS sequence (limited)
MarkEAW replied to MarkEAW's topic in EAW - Skinning, Modding, Add-ons
I have played around with the tools and practices of modeling with the provided package, and beyond as I found other tools as well. Even a few I think you disregarded, updates to the 3dz modeling program for example. I don't remember the specifics, but there was a later version, updated by one, that cured a few bugs that you workaround with the older modeling program. Anyhow that doesn't matter. I lost track with the tools, its been a few years since I worked with them, such as archiving, noting etc....... It was Rotton that had some knowledge, but backed out, never replied to me....unfortunately Col. Gibbon had health issues, but he was able to get his files to me before it got super bad, some updated tools that where on the web shortly or whatever.....However, I'll let it go, for now, again unless help arrives ;) Its beyond me to do this alone. -

I really want to explore finishing or at least updating this help document. So any help after looking at the my help doc and the current posts above, would be appreciated. I know, its old technology and an old topic but still think some more work needs to be done. I'd even be interested in someone co-editing this help document, since I am virtual in experienced with the modeling process. Help was openly offered at the SimHQ EAW Forum, but when I asked soon after, I never got a reply. I even think I posted some information or questions and instructing the user where to find my current progress on the help doc. Anyhow that fell through, and actually I think was a long time ago, 4 or more years. :) -
okay, thanks. I feared they wouldn't allow you to DL the old one that existed before the roll back. Thanks for the Screen shot. Maybe somebody else has access to 128GOG?
-
Thank You, it seems that's what I had already. (Thanks for the installer filename) Hmmm, what the?? Well okay, maybe I'm in error with 128GOG? Do you have that information the same but for v1.28GOG exe? Thanks!
-
I was wondering if anyone that has the v1.2GOG If they could tell me how many bytes in size the eaw.exe is and the CRC value of it?
-
What else am I looking at in that last image? Various types of particles and fires and smoke, and the 3D Clouds you made? :)
-
A big improvement!

SimHQ old Historical Forum EAW Archive 2000-2008?
MarkEAW replied to MarkEAW's topic in EAW - General Discussions
I don't need to research anything specific. Just reading the old forums was fun....you find little issues and someone may have fixed it or today it was fixed. I just never know :) what topic is started back then. CombatSim especially. Those where good archives and had like 3 talented know it all's people on it, heh. Some guy named JWC I think was a very smart person back then, he seamed to know the game well, even though it was new. Like I said aw, well. Next project! -
SimHQ old Historical Forum EAW Archive 2000-2008?
MarkEAW replied to MarkEAW's topic in EAW - General Discussions
Do I have your notes? I have to look again. Been awhile since I been in those folders. But helping on GOG and STEAM, you need yet another account to post. I'm just not willing to make more accounts at this point unfortunately. oh well. -
Now that everyone's running EAW okay....
MarkEAW replied to MarkEAW's topic in EAW - General Discussions
no problems? @RIBob Yeah, you too :) You coming back? -

MarkEAW replied to MarkEAW's topic in EAW - General Discussions
No info on this? Since combatsim wiped there eaw archive I've been pretty bored. Now simhq eaw archive forum is gone, kinda sucks for all of us, since they where one of the few places left for research on this game. aw, well. -
Nice going with the new feature, VBH!. Love your screen shot too , lol omg. :)

Ugh, Sounds rough. I have these devastating EAW moments all the time. :) Any luck on getting the files to work correctly?
