MechWarrior 2: Resource Forum

Well I think its funny....

Funded Kickstarter for Battletech and don't have a machine powerful enough to run the Beta. LOL.

EDIT - even funnier is it does work with my half powered machine and plays fine just the loading times are long.

I added a windshield and literally copied the texels from the original windshield WTB and it looked good...thing is I used a Firemoths gun to host the windshield file so it was hovering above the mech. Was trying to replace the Firemoth BWD with a modified one and my mechs went invisible. Need to fi...

*SIGH* OK I am all caught up to where I was originally... Realized that my 3D program was inverting the normals ingame causing a lot of confusion. So flipped it - exported it and converted it and fixed the checksum then replaced the FireMoths Head and it looks good. The next part I want to do is str...

Well this is embarassing...seems like I completely forgot how I converted OBJs to WTBs. I am using the PRJPP and it converts it but the filesize doubles and extra verticies gets added into the file that are not part of the original OBJ from what I can see comparing my old WTBs to the new. Just compl...

Wow I am stupid...forgot to save the UVW mapping for the textures...that is why they look the way they do on the mesh itself - it defaults and gets applied per face instead of say the entire side of the object. Gonna redo this model and apply the upper body only and see how she looks in game with th...

Still here and just finished reading Betrayal of Ideals by Pardoe, an excellent read I must add. I have been busy with other projects and work forcing me to put this on the back burner. Had to get some time back to myself and a routine in order to look at this again. My main issue was the placement ...

I thought the patches did not go forward if you had the wrong version? I guess so seeing as it was DOS back then and did not run checks beforehand. 20/20 hindsight - before applying anything - back up the entire image - rename it and store it someplace safe in case things do not go according as plan...

That looks impressive...voice acting is alright but that normally gets done near the end of development I'd imagine. I laughed at the payraise injoke.

I had a similar issue and I believe the music in the menu doesn't play live off the CD while the ingame music does...(could be wrong) well in my case the CD ROM didn't have its audio line plugged in - (after opening up the tower case and done the music could be heard) Double check those cue settings...
