I can see the appeal of loading raw model assets, though their structure usually fits for the needs of the modeling package better than the needs of the rendering engine.

What would really reduce the clutter is a model format that combined the VDF/SDF and GEO files into one file...
(I always found the separate GEO thing baffling. Why would anyone ever do that?)

They may be a long time in coming, but they do come.

Yep.

Holy crap! Has it really been four months?

It's nice seeing something useful come of my documentation efforts.

This particular map (multdm13) has messed-up lava border tiles which makes it harder to grasp what's going on. Check out the largemap image to see what i mean.

Things have finally calmed down at work and I've recovered enough to start working on Battlezone stuff again.

In case anyone was wondering what I was working on:
Batman Arkham Origins Blackgate

We recently released a trailer for it:
Blackgate Handheld Trailer "Under New Management"

Non-integer scale is never going to look good. :) I just added support for printing text instead of drawing sprites but I can't completely replace sprites until I set up localization. Unfortunately, I don't have different language versions to work from to build localization tables. (I'd add everythi...

To answer one of the original questions: Regarding names, I see that in the edit/build menu list, ANY name can now be displayed for an object. So, question for UltraKen: are we going to be able to freely name objects as we wish in future patches? This does not work for in-game objects now, at least ...

Working 60+ hours weeks for the past few months has been taking a lot out of me so I haven't had time or energy to work on Battlezone stuff. I'll get back to it when I can, though. It won't be 6+ months of silence like last time.

Handy.

This build is a quick fix for some issues in version 1.5.2.12. In particular, BZN mission files saved from this version will load in 1.5.1.17 and 1.5.1.18.

This is the first build since I started collecting requrests and bug reports from the message forums in Evernote. Keeping everything in one document makes it much easier to keep track of what needs doing, and should prevent old issues from getting forgotten once they disappear into Old Builds. Edit:...

This build includes the beginnings of a 1.5.2 Asset Pack, so make sure you get it along with the executable. Among other things, it includes the rotation speed and dual weapon changes that make Turrets actually useful. Edit: I just reissued the build with a change that should fix the mode switch pro...

OK. I was just trying to eliminate a few possibilities.
I'll try with my 360 controller once I get home.
