Games content currently being ported to C2

Post by cesm20 »

This is only to people know here which games contents are currently being ported into carma2, and by whom, and also future projects which are almost garanteed to be done. So far i think it's only me and toshiba. Even tough most people here already know which games contents toshiba is porting, please toshiba reply here and keep updating the list in this post, so that we get this information only here in this post.

Here's the game content i am currently porting to c2 :

- Grand Theft auto 3 (yes ttr and toshiba, finally i decided to tell this info to the public here!)

And here's the games i already have the necessary tools to port as well to c2 later :

- Grand Theft Auto Vice city
- Grand Theft Auto San Andreas
- Gothic
- Gothic 2
- Ultima IX ascension (not 100% garanteed yet)

About me, I'm porting to C2 :

- The BIL map of GTA2 (The Industrial District)
- City 17 from Half-Life²


I think that Coffey will be interested in working on the NY city from GTA1.

There's no way to directly convert them from TDR so we just remodel them in MAX.
The only thing that is possible from TDR is to export the collision mesh to MAX and about that, I realize that it wouldn't take me much time to convert 1920s to C2 ; the texturing seems pretty basic, and not much to remodel out of it.

Yeah, Coffeycup asked me to downgrade the version of the GTA1 NYC track scene from MAX8 to MAX6 (or at least something compatible), but so far every attempt I proceeded failed ; it looks like the track is so huge that it can't fit any recurrent 3D format (except ASE, but there's no way to import it in MAX (haven't found totally compatible import plugin so far)). If you have any idea how to do this, please go ahead...

If I could find a keygen for Max 7 I could probably get the project moving...
but I think the last warez site(s) I went to infected my 'puter with a nasty virus,
that I'm trying to fix right now:errr:

Max won't open the map without 'em, any ideas?

Well, if the files were made into MAX8, then there's no difference between MAX6 or 7. Both won't load the scene.
Just two solutions : we have to find a way to export the scene to MAX6 or 7 correctly. Or you find MAX8~
