  1. I'm excellent man! It's been a while since I had a hobby project like the one you guys know me for. I'm too busy enjoying life, and lets face it, 8 hrs a day in front of a computer screen is way more than enough. Instead I'm spending my time enjoying life, music and travel. Keep an eye out and you just might get a glimpse of me and my backpack ;-P What are you up to these days?
  2. Hi piibii, i was just asked about this old adventure of mine and when i googled it to find the tool google showed me this thread! :-D I guess this isnt relevant at all these days but id like to answer you anyway. Go ahead and bundle it, if you feel like including a credit or an acknowledgement then please do, but u dont have to. I consider the tool to be in the public domain, it's belongs to you just as much as it belongs to me. Good luck and have fun!
  3. Hello again old friends! A friend told me yesterday that there's a third game in the series. I haven't played it, but i thought i'd check in to see whats new. I never did play the sequel, but i did ask around to see if my tools still worked around the time it was released, or maybe shortly after. Which i was told they did. From what ive read on the official site, both in the modding section and in the forum over there vfstool will still do the trick for Afterlight. So i guess you're set, and with ALTAR now providing documentation chances are mods will be even richer for this game. Good luck to all of you modders out there! What else is up, what have i missed since my last login ages ago?

    Hello again!

    My mail account was closed due to inactivity. Guess everything bounced. Everything is great with me, i finally found full-time employment as a programmer. So i dont have much spare-time over for projects. But i suppose i could still sign up for the modding team. I work with databases daily and have written code for reading excel spreadsheets in the past. There's surely someone of the other modders with great ideas that could use a hand or a useful utility or two. As you know from my track record im not really a moder myself but do enjoy writing tools for modding. Suppose you might be seeing more of me in the near future!

    Hello again!

    Hi again old friends! Just thought i'd check in and see whats new in the forums. I havent tried AS yet and was wondering whats happening on the modding front. From my quick look on the latest topics i learned that they're still using the .vfs-format. No need for any new tools from me then i guess. I hear ALTAR has started a modding team that they'll support with tips and documentation, very good news indeed. Any news from them on their progress? Happy X-mas from sigget!
  6. Nice going! Let me know if there's anything i can help you with.
  7. Ive compared it to version 1.3 now and found that the medic training doesnt match the settings in the skilltool. Since i have no idea what version i used to make skilltool i still need you to post those files!
  8. Yes, i dont remember what version i used when i wrote the skilltool so everything is welcomed!
  9. Could anyone supply me with the config files for the different versions? If i remember correctly the settings are in these files: tactical\configs\game\listofskills.txt tactical\configs\game\listoftrain.txt Zipped and mailed would be the best, and dont forget to say what version they're from. Or perhaps just post them here, since they're only like 2 Kb or so.
  10. Ill have a look at it this weekend. You might even get those tooltips you requested earlier Slaughter
  11. It would be more fun to play this RPG game if you had a skill tool that allows you to select which game versions skill settings to display?
  12. Are you guys sure they've changed the skills for version 1.3? I suppose i could rewrite the skills program so that it takes its values from the installed gamedata.vfs. Or perhaps it would be better if it had the different configurations available from a menu. Anyway, is there an interest?
  13. I suspect they tried having support for facing soldiers but found it was too hard to play with, that the area visible for each soldier wasnt easy enough to determine. In the E3 interview with Martin he said that Aftershock will have a feature where the visible view of a soldier is colored. Which reminds me of the Commandos -games.
  14. Hehe, i think ill be using (Removed by Slaughter) to indicate strong language in my posts from now on!
  15. To be honest i doubt ill be able to insert into these archives. The reason is that they're so tightly linked to the database, and i havent been able to fully understand it yet. And the fileformats of the data files are also in formats that will have to be cracked. A lot of work. I might spend a little more time on the database formats since i have spent a lot of time on it and dont like the idea that i tried and failed. =)
