Somewhere between 0 and 100%? From my personal experience, most of the time asking how a mod is coming is seen as somewhat rude, even if you were just wondering and not trying to hurry the maker.

I'd say about this much done

sides and worlds: 99%
mission luas: 80%
localization and common.lvl: 99%
era scripts: 40% done
visual patch for stock sides: 25% done

and as far as Bamdur's animating job goes, he last said that he was almost done with the new animations.

@cody. i think you asked this already previously i don't mind, but if you ask frequently i will

When you say era scripts does that mean you are adding(Well having maps with them) eras?

jdee/barc · Post by **jdee/barc** » Sat Mar 19, 2011 8:57 pm

yeah, for more reference, have a look at my topic about it forums/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=25706

UPDATE
I'm now working on making this into the closest thing one can possibly make of a BF1 era mod.

I took the mission list lua and used parts of it in an addme lua to try an make this possible
What will happen:
in the instant action menu each map will have another version of that map under it, marked as part of the mod, with an era label

example
eras/modes
Force Unleashed Era. label: TFU (still being worked on, but what has been created so far seems to work for the most part)
Hunt Mode. Label: HNT (perfect)
The main mod. label: MOD (this is what i've been working on for the past months and the main part of this mod)
Hero Assault. Label: hero (still need to improve all the heroes)
Order 66 mode. Label: ORD (works perfectly, need to get clones vs. jedi isntead of stormies vs. jedi)
[/hide]

Doing this will allow me and those who download this mod to retain the stock sides for multiplayer compatibility. For the stock sides I've releasing a visual patch that just replaces stock models with improved ones (ie. the regular rebel pistol becomes a dh17 and the republic rifle becomes a dc-15 carbine) and a common.lvl fix which is required for the mod in its entirety.

Have you been successful in creating new icons for the eras? And BTW, where can I this missionlist.lua and how do you compile it and get it into the game?

if you want to change the shell.lvl,
change missionlist.lua

munge

reinsert the missionlist.script into the shell.lvl

ya

Animations Update: Idle: Done
Saber: done
Rifle Shoot: 40%
unused animation bank-turned into a stab animation: 30%
pistol: done

no, i can't get the icons working. they aren't new eras in the sense that BF2's eras work (ie. one map with all eras listed), but they are as close to i can get it. eras are hardcoded into the BF1 exe and therefore you technically can't create completley new eras with new icons. What i did was just a shell hack by using an addme lua. for more reference, have a look at my topic about it. that should answer most of you questions

So am I understanding this right, there's a new era then?

jdee/barc · Post by **jdee/barc** » Sun Mar 20, 2011 3:14 pm

thats one way of putting it

SleepKiller · Post by **SleepKiller** » Sun Mar 20, 2011 4:46 pm

He means there is a new era v=but you will not be able to chose it from the same map that has GCW and CW eras on it'll be on a different map below the other one.

Which icons do you mean, the spawn selection icons?

CommanderCody212 · Post by **CommanderCody212** » Mon Mar 21, 2011 12:54 am

It's looking really good.

Is the rocket pack B2, like the one from the TCW show?
I like that you added a unit from Republic Commandos!
:clone: :stormie:

Yah, the original ones can be found in the common/interface source files. I was wondering if there could be a place for a new era to reference new icons.

jdee/barc · Post by **jdee/barc** » Mon Mar 21, 2011 3:35 pm

nope sorry, like i said, eras are hardcoded. You can however, swap and replace icons.

CommanderCody212 · Post by **CommanderCody212** » Tue Mar 22, 2011 2:40 am

So are you replacing the icons then?

jdee/barc · Post by **jdee/barc** » Tue Mar 22, 2011 7:06 am

only for the imperials. look in my previous screenshots

CommanderCody212 · Post by **CommanderCody212** » Wed Mar 23, 2011 11:24 am

So if your adding a new era, what's the era?

Can we play Order 66 as the 501st?
