Crude map to explain better: ++++++++++++++ + +B + + + + + + + + + + A+ + ++++++++++++++ If you click point A the engineer will goto B. If you`re supposed to be able to give an order outside the map area then it should at least attempt to go where you`ve clicked and not in the opposite direction. Or...

Engineers given orders outside map Bug

Just tried Darwinia again after a long break and seeing the patch version 1.21. If I have an engineer at 0,0 on a map of say 1000x1000, and click the engineer just outside the 0,0, the engineer will trundle all the way across the map to 1000,1000 co-ords, and it will then bump against an invisible w...

Acceptable mod download size?

My mod is starting to get quite large in size due to all the extra sounds and music I have. The sound for 2 levels at the moment weighs in at a massive 14Mb. I`ve compressed all the sound with ogg. Also I have a bit of a gripe as I`m using chip tunes and have to record them to ogg. For example an or...

I get the same thing with Jimmy Whites Cueball World. I had to change my Performance & Quality Settings in my Nvidia display properties. If you have an Nvidia card (you should allways put your system specs), try altering from high performance to quality (mine is set to High Performance), also yo...

I`ve noticed that the newer graphics drivers for my Nvidia card have mucked up a lot of my older games. Must be to do with dx9 support. Maybe they`ve had to remove some backward compatibility to fix things. I tried Project IGI and it doesn`t run at all with new drivers, I had to go back to dx7 or 8 ...

So I should set my buildings to dynamic if they`re not going to be in the new level then. So they`re not in the map file. I`ll include the laser fences in the new level but disabled and unlinked. One problem I`ve noticed is you have to unload and reload the mod to notice any changes, and I hate the ...

If darwinia checked the mods folder for a language file all would be ok and nothing else would need to be done. I expect the patch (when its released), will do this, and if there isn`t a language file in mods directory it should use the default. I doubt my mod will be ready before a patch comes out ...

Just worked this out

Edit preferences.txt

TextLanguage = englishmod

Use englishmod.txt in data directory as your own language file.
No overwriting is then needed if you package your mod with with a data folder and englishmod.txt

Its a workaround but it works!

I already tried a spawning red army from the trunk port, but it doesn`t quite fit with my level. So instead I have 2 enemy engineers and 50 spirits in the nearby enemy incubator at the start of the level. You have to knockout the red army and engineers, capture the incubator and get 50 greens in a s...

shinygerbil, It should work with or without the Control Centre, you have to follow the instructions to the letter. Go to the location on your hard drive where you downloaded the drivers to, launch the drivers setup program, the install of that will fail with an error message and abort the installati...

For all the ati mobility users without support

Thought I`d start a new thread for this topic. This is a tool that will modify catalyst driver set to install correctly on your laptops. You need Microsoft .NET Framework installed for Catalyst Control Centre (CCC) to work. Get it from here: http://www.driverheaven.net/patje/ The forum thread from t...
