MS 3.5 Atlas 2 + MS4

by Jeremiah Fulbright · in Torque Game Engine Advanced · 09/09/2006 (10:27 pm) · 4 replies

I have been getting MS4 merged and finally got it all up and running on the atlas terrain that comes with TSE by default. This has been successful, but loading older Atlas 2 files is just crashing left and right with no loading successfully..

With the numerous format changes, I'm not totally surprised, but wanted to confirm as a bug or feature hah

Yeah, its a bummer. I spent quite a bit of time converting stronghold into a really cool atlas2 (ms3.5), only to find out it wouldn't work at all in ms4. So... terrain_water_demo it is until atlas2 methods slow down enough for me to keep up.

We're feature complete for runtime so the latest code should be pretty stable moving forward. I had to rip up a TON of stuff due to unforeseen issues w/ blended terrains, but the new stuff is happy. Like I mentioned elsewhere I have docs written but haven't gotten them up on TDN yet - if someone wants to volunteer to help with that I'd love to work with them.

Actually, Erik already got the conversion done - sorry, I should have posted here as well as in the thread where it happened. Thanks for volunteering though!
