Spring RTS Engine

Ok thanks for the input guys..........

Hey guys, I have read here and there that Spring is heading towards a new model format. Who is in charge of designing and implementing this? A couple of us are interested in helping out and getting our feet wet and think that his would be a valuable addition to Spring. Making spring more accessible ...

Fnordia, you rock. Thank you very much for finding that for me. The orginal modeller/scriptor misnamed 2 parts of the ship in the script, On the model he had aerialRL, and aerialRR In the script he had aerialLR, and aerialRR Its nice to have more specific errors to be able to narrow down where the p...

Mother and I have been bashing these ships over and over repeatedly. If someone can help out to figure out why, that would be great! Everytime corflag (Archon Core Communication Ship) and armflag ( Victory Arm Communication Ship) die, the client crashes. The error files have been sent via email. I c...

Yeah think it was just the bombers area of effect killed a building that did not have the heap / dead settings set right.

Proved out a crash in the mod to when a core bomber dies/explodes.

I looked at the FBI file, and it looks ok and comparable to the ARM bomber.

Any ideas of what I should be looking for to fix here?

Someone want to make an ARM and a CORE super starship for Final Frontier?

Gives someone something interesting to look into. If thats the case, then maybe buildings are trying to move all the time.

One less thing to cause problems/conflicts.

Thats too bad about the track thing all over the map. That is a neat thought tho Groundzero with the break-up of air off the wings. Usually that only happens on turns or other higher-g maneuvers. Wonder if that would be do-able? Wouldn't work for this mod tho since its supposed to be "space&quo...

It is disabled with the LeaveTracks=0; but I am willing to take it out, I had an idea tho, is there a way we can use the tracks to leave a little burnmark on the ground after takeoff using this system? As for flares, the question then becomes would itbe a good idea to turn it on for some/certain spa...

Odd behaviour happens when you use the ExtractsMetal tag in FBI files. If its greater then 0, it caused my flying unit to fly to the upper left hand corner, and was not clickable or controllable. Bad Code //Energy and metal related BuildCostEnergy=6849; BuildCostMetal=254; EnergyMake=8; EnergyStorag...

It turns out it was something else, so forget I posted this stuff. I talked to SJ about it. Turns out, I tested the wrong mod (my fault, mis-clicked) and the problem still existed. The actual problem was ExtractsMetal=0.003; Which caused the unit to fly to the upper left corner. This is odd, because...

I noticed when I was testing that the unit that I removed this from
Would just fly away and not be controlled. These should get added to the FBI wiki, the ones that actually have an effect with a description?

The FBI files are a mess, with some useless tags as well. There are a couple of things we should think about gameplay wise. 1. The fighters and what not are creating energy for use, should they really be doing that? 2. A new tag allows for flares for countermeasures to missiles. Should we enable thi...

Hey there, I am doing some cleanup of the FF mod FBI files, and using the wiki, these ones are no longer used. If someone could confirm this for me so that I can remove the info, or include it if it is used. Designation=AFD-J17; Version=1; BMcode=1; ThreeD=1; ZBuffer=1; NoAutoFire=0; Copyright=Copyr...

Egads someones posting already before I got the thread setup! All things to work on, the mod is a very rough port thanks to Hrmph. I am learning how to do all this stuff as I go, so I can't say I can say why things are the way they are, but definately put that kind of stuff in here so someone can ad...

Ok slowly managing to get through this stuff, still having some troubles. I have a unit in FF that has a black plane under its body, theres actually two of them. I imported the unit to milkshape 3D, removed the face, and tried to figure out how to export it back to 3do. I tried a couple of formats, ...

Hi everyone. I could use some guidance. I am not finding much help in the department of using 3do builder. 1. in the 3d window, i have a big fat red square that will not show my unit in 3d view. 2. Trying to work on the units, builder gets stuck on loading textures for this mod which I have unpacked...
