TDR 2000 map editing

Post by Errol »

Hi Toshiba, I've been told you're the man to speak to with regards to editing TDR2k maps?

This morning I set about playing with dingable and map msh/mshs files and have had some success porting them over to C2...

Converting files TO mshs format shouldn't be too hard although, admittedly, there are large portions of the file I don't fully understand yet.

I discovered a thread on CWA about the internals of the .scol files and .dcol files should be easy as pie to generate. Any ideas what other files I should be looking at? I guess .tx descriptors for tga files but they seem fairly straight forward.

Do you have any insight to offer on the contents of the .hie files? The node list specifically.

Hope you can help

No friggin' idea. Beroc would have been the man to speak, not me. And right now you are way further than he went.
It's been like 4 or 5 years since I last touched TDR2000.

So what you are looking for is where the textures are assigned to their relative node? I have no idea. Maybe the textures list order is important?
Sorry I can't help you there.

Fair enough, Tosh. Any ideas what happened to Beroc? I heard he disappeared off the face of the planet.

Not sure. He started working on other games but yeah eventually disappeared.
Not even sure that there's a way to contact him nowadays.

You could try: beroc (at) lod3dx.net
Not sure if you'll get a reply from him but, you never know.
