Stardock's New Modding Commitment

http://forums.demigodthegame.com/356550/get;last



Add this to the io libs available in the sim, and Demigod will deliver on SupCom's modding promise.



Edit:

And loadlib. MMMmmm... loadlib.|||Yaay.|||Yay indeed...|||If Frogboy keeps his word - and I have no reason to doubt he does - I'll probably buy Elementals just for the heck of it. :)



Just imagine how nice a bunch of additional items would be, new skill trees, maps (I was thinking about a Cataract version at dusk with altered lighting and maybe creep portals for the middle lane. :P )...|||You can already put the portals in the middle lane by changing mapXX_save.lua. You'll need to change the paths as well though.



where XX is the map number, 05 for cataract.|||What I'd do is a creepfest map with ten lanes that go off in a rotation.|||I hope GPG would promise the same things for SupCom 2. As for Demigod, great to hear this because I fear they're going to need all the extra features they can get when League of Legends comes out.|||DeadMG|||Was joking with some friends about having a mod that changes every creep to a giant and the creep unlocks would just add 2 more giants to each wave.



Heh, imagine Prison with 6 portals each :shock:|||I feel adding more creep paths than you could reasonably cover would make an interesting addition, as well as tuning the flag xp/gold rewards to place further emphasis on the center of the map and get people away from their towers.|||One thing we really need is changed creep paths in Fortress so that the creeps head towards the forts rather then the Citadel.|||Rake|||Good Stuff.



I've already preordered Elemental. I vote with my wallet and a publisher that listens (and speaks!) gets my vote 8)|||You people are thinking too small. Demigod has LOADLIB. That means you can plug in external DLLs, and it can actually work (with some restrictions). Neruz made a Windows Message Box pop up. And I/O and O/S libs, you could plug in a new f'ing renderer (almost).|||Techubus|||Too little too late, I've moved on.



Mike|||Dude. Too late, maybe, but too little? You could add in your own f'ing renderer.|||OrangeKnight|||DeadMG|||The only thing is, i think they might have shot themselves in the foot a bit by using the Granny3D model format. It's going to be difficult to get a solid mod community going when there's no way to put custom models into the game.



Although there might be a way around that with the LOADLIB functionality, perhaps we can hijack the renderer to use a different model format? Hafta poke Neruz about it.|||Rake|||OrangeKnight|||Z32|||Col. Jessep|||Techubus
