MODEL EDITING, DEMONKUNGA discussion thread

[Elen]

Well, the fun in model editing is... model editing. The fun part is not downloading someone else's patch but making your own patch, eventually using programs you made yourself. For example, I made a patch to GM Island from scratch. I made a PHP script (No, I'm not crazy ) to clone and move a part of an existing and change the terrain's height. I used the doc from WoWDev - World of Warcraft Development to deal with .adt and .wdt files. My patch is ugly, juste a plain texture, no mountains, no grass, but I made it and it works . I gave my patch to a few friends to make a raid to the island ( [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YGZpsaQkljQ]YouTube - Raid to GM Island Live 2.1.3[/ame] ) but for other public people I just make videos and screenshots.

I understand you want to share your work DK, it's pretty good. You made ModelEditFix.exe. This really rocks because thanks to this program, you reopened our playground :biggthumpup:. But releasing a noob friendly patch to GM Island kills oll the fun of making a such patch because now even the dumbest one can reach it. You give the solution to noobs while advanced skilled people are still looking for it. Only model editors should deserve to go there.

This site supports sharing of all things... that is one reason he released it... so that even the nubs... though very nub... can have access to something that those who are 'better' have... and now if they dont have it... they can.

Yep. This is the reason why I join this forum . But some "secret" should remains secrets because if they're revealed they're not secrets anymore.

If DK had released his patch for the good of the Community and not his own reputation's, he would have released the sources of his patch, I mean the tools he created and the existing ones and make a full documentation about his work so that the Community could learn how to do it.

Maybe he'll do it.... :hsugh:

he didn't do it for the rep.

And maybe he will release his sources.

I don't care... the program is there.

I have a idea:

That it possible to lower the ground under the barrier (see this screen) and sorry for my bad english)

Screen :



this will enable us to pass under the barrier

Looks like Aphoth is a prime example of the "good" that Demon has caused by releasing all that stuff.
I'm all against BG Hacking, but it looks like his brain started thinking ;-)

[S-N-A-F-U]

I full back demon up.

Its hes desicion if he wanted to release or not, if it gets nerfed, heck, we bypassed it before, we can do it again.

Keep it up demon.

No I didn't o.o but I may need to since zmutfx isn't here anymore.

I didn't do it for rep. I did it for the community, and I did release the documentation and tools.
