May be create hud and cockpit like in descent 3???
I create graphics and everything what you need

sounds unrealistic...Diedel said that even trying to implement custom reticles would be a challenge, let alone a whole cockpit

What is an MD5 check? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MD5 Auto-Update would require me to implement ftp/http communication in d2x-xl. No way, man! I did say that an external program can do this just as easily....and I did say that this sounds easy enough even for me to do :P I'll make the Swing GUI fi...

XL-Updater 0.1 \"Really Early Alpha\" Released Windows-Only Release Installation & Use: - copy 'xl-updater' into your D2X-XL root folder, then run ;) a few things to note: 1) 'data' folder support is not yet complete....currently, everything will be extracted to the main folder 2) JRE...

love the speedups with the menus :) Some problems with the mission briefings just popped up: D1 Briefings: http://img490.imageshack.us/img490/4596/clipboard018yv.th.jpg D2 Briefings: http://img490.imageshack.us/img490/7627/clipboard024wi.th.jpg also these problems do not happen every single time, so...

Kirby

few more things (cause I'm picky ^^): 1) I just remembered about an old feature that use to be in D1X....it was an option to set how many lines of messages can be displayed at one time. The default is 3 lines, but it makes sense to be able to display more because of higher resolutions 2) No more mul...

Just came up with this idea while sleeping:

Ability to set up a hotkey to toggle on/off dual missle mode...

sometimes we just need that extra umph....but not always

Kirby

Just a few more things: 1) I guess I get that same \"not an entrophy level\" error when entering a netplay game now. But unlike what Snake said earlier, I got the error starting a Coop game AND a Anarchy game. 2) Just noticed that when you pickup a weapon in netplay mode, the messages that...

Kirby

just wanna say that the brightness problem is fixed now....and an extra bonus: the damage indicator is fixed also

will be doing more netplay in the future

Kirby

Netplayed with 1.6.71: 1) I know what he means now with the brightness not working.....when you die or enter another level, the brightness resets to 0 until you start a new netplay game. Guess that intertwines with the damage indicator HUD problem too... 1a) Also, after you die or enter another lev...

some more netplay stuff: 1) Using the old menus do not cause exit crashes in Coop or Anarchy.... 2) Most of the time, my opponent's text messages appear black, which makes it really hard to read in low light areas 3) The 1-9 keys on the keyboard for changing primary/secondary weapons do not work. I ...

I FINALLY got the change to test out UDP/IP multiplayer with someone...everything plays perfect up to exiting the mine after the reactor blows up: 1) I was playing Cooperative on the first Descent 2 level....when we both exited the mine after blowing up the reactor, the next level loaded with this e...

Kirby

1) menus are alot faster and more responisive now :) still a little slow though :/ 2) damage indicator still not showing after the first death 3) D1 exit bug still there 4) Briefing and Automap still slow as hell 3) NEW: I noticed that after flying around for a little while, I saw that the Afterburn...

hmmm...D2X-XL isn't really for Descent 2 anymore....maybe we can hold some type of competition for who can create the best main menu background image....winner gets it used for D2X-XL's main background

Plus a big mention on my D2 Site!

a better alternative would be to create models instead....the weapons are basically just animations in a loop

Kirby

And I discovered the D1 exit tunnel crash again. same here too... another thing: 1) do you notice how your screen flashes red (or blue or yellow) when you get hit or pick up a key or powerup??? With D2X, everything works fine up to your first death. After that, there are no more damage indicators o...

I was using 1.5.61....1.5.63 did not do anything to fix anything that's strange....using that -menustyle 0 thing, I noticed a few more things: 1) the main menu does not work with the mouse...you can click with the mouse in the submenus though 2) No more slowness in mission briefings, but every page ...

time to become a complete pain in the ass :twisted: http://img409.imageshack.us/my.php?image=clipboard015nd.jpg concerning that image: 1) When a missle blows up and the missle monitor turns to snow, you can tell that the animation was created by 4 smaller ones (there's a black '+' line in the center...

Kirby

correct....can't kill X, can't switch between different sessions. Only thing I can do is restart There's little I can do on my part....I could recompile xorg and update to the latest ATi drivers (ugh...ATi). And if that fails, I could try compiling the debug version of d2x-xl again, and hopefully an...

Kirby

with the new Linux 1.5.34 release, my freezing problems just got a hell of alot worse....

Linux freezes now on startup of d2x-xl (before the intro movie even plays)...of course, the only way to get by now is to reset my machine.

what's going on here??

Kirby

what format should they be in???? PNG would be my first guess. as for trying to create something...I am having the vision of a blue crystal orb with lightning around it....something sharp w/o the w32 text on the icon itself.... Might use GIMP, or even Blender...dunno yet...don't count on me, serious...

Kirby

damn....

It must be something you did between the 1.5.27 and 1.5.28 releases.....cause it was quitting fine before then

Kirby

very nice....game is perfect now

now the only problem left is the lockup when quitting (either from the main menu option, or the window's X button) Upgraded to KDE 3.5 and the latest source code of D2x-XL didn't fix it...

btw...KDE 3.5 is freakin' sweet

Kirby

Kirby seems not to have the most recent source code. That bug has been fixed in 1.5.27. you mean 1.5.28 :P one serious bug down...one to go: The robots are hyperactive when it comes to their movements. One second I'm alone in a hallway, and the next second I get rammed a thousand times by one of th...

Kirby

just noticed a serious bug during gameplay: Whenever you fire you primary or secondary weapon, the weapon/missle doesn't move...it just draws itself in front of the ship, and it doesn't move. After about 10 seconds, the laser or missle disappears. You can even fly around the missles and reenact a sc...

My web space is exhausted and doesn't allow for execution of PHP or perl scripts, or compiled programs. The tariff for that kind of web space is quite expensive.

Kirby

hmm....just got a crazy thought...but wouldn't a bug tracker on your site keep everything organized and such??? that way, you only have to look in one place for everything that needs fixing :) http://www.bugzilla.org/ http://www.mantisbt.org/ http://www.zentrack.net/ there are a ton on sourceforge.....

You can download http://www.descent2.de/resources/d2x-xl-src.zip. It contains the latest source codes minus the make files, config files etc. for unix, so you should be able to safely extract them to your D2X-XL source folder w/o ruining the make files (because under windows, somehow the lf linebre...

Kirby

Suggestion: support for custom reticles

the ones in Descent 3 are so awsome, and they are so easy to create, so there should be alot of them

Kirby

before I start game testing, could you update the sources to the new 1.5.26 version? The precompiled binary is at 1.5.25, and the sources are at 1.5.24

I'll be gone till tomorrow afternoon....working till 3AM tonight, and 10AM-6PM tomorrow

oh and check your PM box
