Shouldnt we try to ask Akella to give us proper mod tools for CoAS before its to late and they forget about the game?

ps. I saw the stickie but i mean king modding tools :p
 
"Time to board the great ship Akella!" Well, first of all.. Akella uses some wolf/dog icon thingy. Second, I'm not into animal abusing. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />

Anyways, better tools would be nice. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":yes" border="0" alt="yes.gif" />
 
What do you mean by "king modding tools"?
We have contact with seaward.ru, who made CoAS and have kindly provided us with a lot of help already.
 
I mean even better modding tools, I should of used different terminology.

I wasnt trying to implie Akella arnt helpful <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />
 
But you never know :p by the way i know nothing about the current modding tools but i figure there is something better. I feel i should be quite before a upset someone <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />
 
The modding tools we have are the one seaward.ru used for making CoAS. What else would you want? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" />
 
Modding Tools 9000? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" /> <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />
 
I didnt relize the modding were that advanced :p my apologies <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />
 
There probably ISN'T any other modding tools. We just haven't figured out everything about them yet.
ZarethPL can do ships now and dmaksi62 has been doing some great character-work.
But we haven't made any 100% new characters of locations yet, though that should be possible with what we haven.
Still, it's not going to happen until somebody goes and DO it. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" />
 
Currently the Hard Core Edition is NOT translatable. The program folder is not unlocked in the russian version of the game. They use a different copy protections scheme as well, so russian updates and mods are not currently fully compatible with other localized versions of the game.

Would it be possible to ask for the PROGRAM folder of the Hard Core Edition?
 
I've already done exactly that, Pieter. But I haven't yet received a solid response beyond 'They are not compatible game versions' and '1.2.3 Hard Core Edition is for Russian version of the game only'.

But I've put exactly that request up both here and on the Seaward forums.

"Not compatible"? Well... they might not be compatible NOW but they would be after a WinMerge!
Provided they're willing to give us the PROGRAM folder.
"Is for Russian version of the game only"? Yes... we noticed. But if you send us the PROGRAM folder, it will soon be for the western version too. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" />

In the Russian version is not open Program folder.Have access to the folder just a few people .They have no right to the spread of the Program folder.All questions - to Akella.
 
What problem is there in spreading a modified program folder to people who have the unmodified one anyway?
Unless you simply don't want those people to be able to use your modifications. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/mybad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":facepalm" border="0" alt="mybad.gif" />
