Re: BZ2 1.3.6.4z28 - Open beta & testing

Try again, I just re-enabled downloads of 1.3.6.4n to current. Thanks for this. Looks like I was completely and utterly wrong about which version was the last one I didn't have the At-stab stutter on. It wasn't 1.3.6.4n, it was 1.3.6.2. Not really the same thing... I didn't have my installations/sh...

Re: BZ2 1.3.6.4z28 - Open beta & testing

Hm. Doesn't look good for my system. You can try walking builds forward from 1.3.6.4n with that savegame to try and see where anything changed. I'll have a go at this after the game tonight. Are builds after 1.3.6.4n available anywhere central? Old release thread links aren't going anywhere for me.

Can you provide me a dxdiag log or a battlezone.log file to show your system's specs?

Re: BZ2 1.3.6.4z28 - Open beta & testing

Just to clarify: Overall performance is definitely better. Something about particles is just unusually taxing all of a sudden. While firing an AT-Stabber with high particles on 1.3.6.4n: ~110 (Recent ~50 .. ~250) While firing it on 1.3.6.4z28: ~50 (Recent ~20 .. ~90) It recovers very quickly, but th...

Re: BZ2 1.3.6.4z28 - Open beta & testing

Hey thought I'd pop this in and give it a try. After a few minutes of play, particles seem massively more resource intensive. I'm on a decent laptop that has pulled 600 some fps previously, and now I'm choking pretty majorly (down into 20-30fps from 110) when firing an AT-Stabber at 1280x1024. Inter...

Re: Omega Squadron Instant Action Campaign Release

Just got ahold of this, been playing thru some of the NSDF/BDog missions, and I have to say... wow. Great mission pack. :D Thanks! It's not like I was short on inspiration . :) One minor criticism - I was hoping with lua scripting I would be hearing some voiceovers throughout the missions. Maybe if...

Re: Omega Squadron Instant Action Campaign Release

So the size is because I've no formal training in any language (except javascript) or distribution, so the launcher is HUGE coming in at 93MBish. I didn't build it to be size efficient, I just built it to look and sound nice, show the briefings and launch the missions. The actual missions are relati...

Re: Omega Squadron Instant Action Campaign Release

I hope it's been entertaining to some degree. :)
Some fixes:
omegam01fixed
omegam02fixed
omegam09fixed
Alternatively, a re-download of the pack has these fixes included.

Omega Squadron Instant Action Campaign Release

Hey everybody, I know I haven't been around here much, but I just finished my map pack for Ken's BZ 1.5! Perhaps it could serve as some afternoon entertainment, who knows? This is more or less a translation of this thread . http://i.imgur.com/7opNytJ.png Omega Squadron Instant Action Map Pack by Scr...

If I recall correctly, in the race between the tortoise and the hare, the hare won, so.
