So RD.
Is this happening?
cant wait for it. plus itll make my map conversions easier...
Yes, albeit slowly.
What would speed it up?
A construction crew and some lumberjacks.
Cmon... I am really hanging out for this.
As arrogant as I am, I have refused utterly to return to playing FE on 1.2 (even pb3), so this is a matter of life and death for me.
What do you really need??
No, that is really what he needs.
Has the latest version of BZII changed so drastically that FE simply won't run at all under the changes that have been made over the years to BZII? I know that I don't have a clue, but what major components need to be redone? Are the units and other related FE stuff still usable?
mainly, but its changes in physics that will have a dramatic effect, some class changes (like spray building etc.)
the maps from 1.2 DONT open with good results in pb4a, as i found out recently, so that takes time. some mission .dll's will probably need re-doing, AIP's need making etc. to make it FULLY compatible anyway.
It needs tonnes of tiny tweaks to make it compatible with 1.3pb4a.
BS-er told me that he may begin work on a reverse-scriptor which can turn dlls back to .bzs files for RD to fix all the dll bugs.
that would be HEAVEN!
