New BA Chicken Defense V2.38 depends of new BA 7.68

\o/ Thanx a lot!

I just tried this for the first time this morning and it's really fun, thanks!

I am having a strange issue thats pretty distracting, however. The smoke trails on rockets (like anti-aircraft) and explosions are both being rendered strangely in chicken only (they display correctly in BA 7.68). The rocket smoke is very dark, almost black, while you can see very opaque squares in explosions:

Chicken

Regular BA

(All of this is in Spring 88.0, proprietary nvidia on Ubuntu 11.10, if thats helpful...)

If there is anything than can be done to solve this, I'd appreciate the help.

resource file conflict, odds are they are using the old resource stuff.

Thanks for the reply, smoth. Is there anything I can do as a regular user to resolve this?

There is an automagical resource processing file to use but unfortunately for normal uses it may be a bit difficult to follow. Unfortunately I am working today and cannot really dig into the file for you. Behe or someone else should be able to resolve it though so no worries :)

Wow, I can't believe it, but I think I temporarily fixed this on my first try. I opened "ba768.sdz", went to "/gamedata/", copied "resources.tdf", opened "ba_chicken_defense_v2.38.sd7", and overwrote the same file in that archive. Started a game and most of the explosions and rockets look correct now! The explosions of the chickens still look a bit odd, but I can put up with that...

Thanks smoth!

Thank you, BA Chickens V2.39 available !

yeah the chicken effects are the ones that will suffer now as you have removed the resource.tdf.

I will see what I can do about it later.

sorry man, still working, looks like I won't be able to help you out.

Don't worry about it, smoth, no rush

My accidental/temporary fix makes things playable until you have some free time. Thanks again!
