manually extracted the Blind Disposition v1.4.1 folder from the archive (into the FMsel folder in my SS2 folder), pointed AL at it (also chose the FMsel folder as the place for backups, which might not be advisable, but AL insisted on choosing something), no problem.That didn't work either.

. I'm still working on a singleplayer campaign for Shadowrun Returns 2 years on. Working on it, bit by bit over time when I have the motivation.see my Minstrel notes.
On a side note, if you need voice stuff for a later update let me know. Happy to help out.
Having audio logs in FMs just adds to the "Shock" experience. I can't talk though as my FM didn't have any. That was very much intentional though as I prefer working solo.
When the community comes together to improve an already good FM to higher heights it really makes a difference. To compare the original version of "The Minstrel" to the community fixed/updated version, it's like night and day.
wut? you just set up multilevel/dest level and multilevel/dest loc on a Bulk_On_Button, done.
wut? you just set up multilevel/dest level and multilevel/dest loc on a Bulk_On_Button, done.I don't think I will mess with anytime soon due to me trying to get the buttons to work but to no avail and I don't want to mess level changes up as from my experience that can be finickey.
Just played thought the mission again.
I like the little touch-ups you made. The audiologs (while a bit on the rough side) serve a good purpose in giving some atmosphere and game hints. I also liked the "visitor centre" style info kiosk at the crystals.
- You really should consider replacing the automatic level changes with buttons.
- Near the bridge the player can get into a situation where progress is not possible: pushing the elevator button closes the door behind you. If the player rushed back to escape the rumbler there is no way to open it again.
- the bridge feels rather unfinished. Some human characters there, all "death" models with closed eyes, some even standing behind the cargo fence, but no interaction. Maybe you can put the "end mission trigger" on one of them and let them say "well done soldier!" As a last stronghold there should be a few barricades and a few corpses
yeah, there actually have been udates to Shocked cfgs no long ago, and as I have used that when editing the map, you should do too, to be safe.
if you want to finalize a map, you just fire up the build dialogue, select optimized, set shadow type to terrain+objects and that should be all (well, setting lightmap to 32bit would be nice as well).
yeah, I'm pretty sure an annoying video is EXACTLY what will melt everyone's heart.
aanyway, make sure to update to the latest version of the editor if you are about to use the level I posted (SS2tool). also, I find the level name (testnextlevel) strangely irritating.
I'll rather be in Nice than being nice.
//Thank you. I'll see myself out.
sure.I've got no idea what you are talking about there. anyway;
-have SHTUP loaded when working with goos, it gives them more depth, making it much easier to see whether they are positioned correctly.
-texture and lighting problems are quite noticeable even for casual players (especially when using hires texture mods), and they really are better off fixed.
-same goes for objects floating off surfaces, it's not a problem if it's just a few pixels, but some are way more off than that.
-the earth level 0,0,0 is in mid air and not in a blue room, but as this is not a playable level, it shouldn't matter too much.
-the no-bulkhead load zones still annoying.
did notice a few basic logs, definitely a step in the right direction, even though they do feel a bit on the rough edge (no portraits, and linguistically imperfect). not sure whether I will have enough time for a serious playthrough, being yanked around between way too many things these days.
also, yes to the reduced spawn rates.
the fm has no gamesys of its own (as mentioned earlier, you actually can grab the SCP gamesys, rename it to shock2.gam, drop it into the fm root folder and get instant cool stuff), so no surprise.that texture archetype has ended up under Missing in the gamesys
Eh? All you have to do is find the texture name in the texture hierarchy (F5 -> Show Tree: Textures) and drag it under "EarthTex".And as far as my custom soil texture goes (which you didn't mention but I'll mention it) I tried REALLY hard to get the 'Material Earth' sound for texture archetypes to work but to no avail, but again, I figured I would keep it as pure 'soil' I suppose can get away with little to no sound.
I've got no idea what you are talking about there. anyway;I thought it was just that texture and I decided to keep it because I liked the way the tile looked.

well then, after a very quick look;
-the earth level has no lighting.
-sound propagation and lighting still broken around the first level toilets (and other places as well, most likely. view -> show/hide - bad rooms in any modern version of Shocked. seeing pink is bad).
-keycards now work as they should, but the second slot on the first level (obj 125) only says "access needed", without saying what kind of access is needed. a custom MISC.STR required, with Access4:"SECURITY2" (or "BANANAS" or whatever you want) line added.
-in the second level, you can frob the broken door (92) and they will disappear, as they have frobinfo/worldaction/delete set. no door (and probably any other sane object) should have this set (unless it's part of some very intentional setup).
-bad texturing on door alcoves (ahh, fixes so many of those when working on original levels).
-a lot of wormgoos float off their surfaces, and are reversed.
attaching a map where I fixed the bad lighting, sound propagation, door location and door alcoves (jump to obj 695 and compare to the original).
well then, after a very quick look;Blind Disposition v1.2 is currently up as of yesterday.
If you want to go for an ultra challenge, try doing it pacifist style and see if it's do-able. I'm assuming it's not possible with your FM, but a guy managed to make it 3/4 through vanilla SS2 without killing a single enemy himself (he got the enemies to kill each other).
