Hey ya'll

I just got tired of the Super Battledroid's chunks were the normal Battledroid, so I decided to fix it

all in all (+ munge etc.) it took me about 5 minutes, because it's so simple (I'd wonder why it hasn't been fixed... anyways)

in the Side Folder, cis, you copy the cis_inf_default.odf and rename it to cis_inf_default_sbd.odf

you now scroll down to the Chunks Section which is just below it -

CHUNKSECTION = "CHUNK1"
ChunkGeometryName = "bdroid_chunk1"
ChunkNodeName = "bone_neck"
ChunkTerrainCollisions = "4"
ChunkTerrainEffect = "dirtspray"
ChunkTrailEffect = "com_sfx_chunksmolder"
ChunkPhysics = "FULL"
ChunkOmega = "4.0 4.0 4.0"ChunkSpeed = 8.0

you see the green line? make it call for sbdroid_chunk1 so it'll be like this: ChunkGeometryName = "sbdroid_chunk1"

in other words, you just add an 's' in front of it then you save it, and we're almost done!

now you save that .odf and open cis_inf_default_rifleman.odf
ClassParent = "cis_inf_default"
should be:
ClassParent = "cis_inf_default_sbd"

you save and munge.

so all in all, this won't take much longer than 5 minutes to do it and munge

here's the proof:


I hope you'll all enjoy it

and you're welcome should this be released as a mod, or would anyone else do it?

- Qdin

It might be good to make this a quick, downloadable side so the n00bs can do this easy as well.

Well, okay - but I hope this will be the LAST map with the SBD chunks with regular chunks

I'll upload the cis.lvl right away, and then release it on filefront

EDIT:
btw, what about the cisshell.lvl? should it be uploaded too?

He means just make a side folder as in data/modid/sides/sbd, with all the sbd stuff in it.

Now, I think he mines the whole cis.lvl. Its finally fixed. It took a teenager 5 minutes to do it and pandemic . . .infinity


This is one of those things that make you want to yell : "Oh. My. Go. .osh"

oh, ok i just thought a side would be easier since the cis .lvl would be huge. but whatever

Whoa... why upload the entire CIS.lvl? That means an extra 2-6mb for every download. Just do a separate side just for the SBD and it'll work the same.

*EDIT*

If he uploaded cis.lvl AND cisshell.lvl you could overwrite game's original, thus fixing it for every map.

Do it!

A lot of things where taken out of the game due to memory issues so they would run better in the non-PC market. I believe this is one of those things.

Anyway, nice work.

This is awesome. Would you mind posting this in the Community Patch topic? We'd love to have you on board.

The magna gaurds also turn into regular bdroids. You got anything for that?

Nice fix Qdin! Definitely one for the community patch.
I didn't see any magnaguard chunks, but I suppose someone could retexture some sbdroid chunks to kinda look like it. Or, you could always model some chunks.

lol - you got a point there...

I'm busy these days with B-day for me, my brother and cousin etc. and the exam so I probably won't do it

Is it possible to make this a sticky (Teancum?)

Put it in the FAQ.

I've run into a slight problem and it is this:

A CRASH.

It even happens with my defualt assests folder cis sides.

I don't need to change any reqs or lua calls do I? (therefore rendering this usless as a side mod)

*EDIT*
I got Skyhawk to give me his lvl and now I'm working on a simple easy installer. . .

Ace, Qdin, and I made a patch that fixes the game. You can download this "patch" here:

Credits:

Qdin - The tutorial (Even though I didnt fix it this way, lmao. )

Ace - The handy installer

-_-/Skyhawk - Fixed cis.lvl

Bugs:

This will NOT work online, it'll only work if the server has this patch as well.

p.s- if an admin/moderator wont mind sticki-ing this, it would be much appreciated.

I just posted and told how it was easy to change it more creative ways works too
