Natty Bumppo's G66 2.0, BETA For PB5.1

[Red Devil]

Most assets changes are finished.

Future updates will mainly be dll updates.

- Have to turn lightning on and adjust things so it doesn't get so dark when the rain turns off/on.

[Red Devil]

I moved all the files into the main folders, so all future updates will be incrementals.

You'll have to install Beta 40 first, though.

[Red Devil]

To Do List:

- Finish adding lightning.
- Put all sun/stars/weather code into separate functions.
- Add colors and other map-specific settings to .trn files.
- Lighten up night sky a tad; too dark for Scions.
- etc.

For me this is the best mod for Battlezone 2 ... the others are very nice (for example Uler), but this beats them all for me!

G66 was supposed to be a non asset breaking map pack.

RD, are you going to ever return it to such a state? where it just goes into addon and doesn't cause bad assets?

Would be pimpin. 

[Red Devil]

Maybe.  Only reason it's not that way now is that it has an mpinstant.dll in it which allows you to play stock maps using the g66 dll and aips.

You could make a 2nd CFG that loads it as a mod instead of an AO by simply including the overriding DLL.

- I've given the Scions their version of night vision.  Looks pretty...Sciony.

- Starting to customize the weather settings according to map.

[Clavin12]

I'm definitely gonna have to try this.

[TheJamsh]

What?? Night Vision??

just a HUGE light im assuming?

[Arbystrider]

If it's really that huge we might as well replace night with day.

[Wraith]

When will this be finished

[AHadley]

When will this be finished

As modders always answer - when it's ready!

[VoodooChile]

hey,

i tried version 40 on mojave, the sun didnt work well, it was dark 90% of the time.
for a short period it suddenly was light but it soon went to black again.
is there a option to turn this off in the future?

a little thing i noticed: when u select a map, the setting is on normal difficulty and scrap boost 1 for the cpu.
when u select hard or easy and than switch back to normal, the scrapboost is set to 2.

[Red Devil]

Good feedback, thank you. 

To turn things off, just select 0 instead of 4/8/12/16/20/24.

I've been refactoring all the environment calculations and splitting them out into functions that pull in the colors for each map, so things should look and feel better next time.  Baby steps and all that.
