OK So, how can I extract the availabilty dates from the PeG equipment file? Converted it to OG but during the conversion all dates were set back to 1900. While I reset it globally (since every date data lost during conversion) to 2015 some units appear later. Check one-by-one would be crazy so I am ...

Greetings! Sorry for the late reply but lately I am a rare bird on these forums! As for the icons, I not promise anything. Things are a bit silly now again but I would try at least some of the ideas you listed to make. However I am not sure how you want to use the new icons. The current Modern Warfa...

Equipicons? It is something new I missed? Or just a custom openicons one may rename and put in the right e-folder?
Sorry, it seems I miss much-much things when I were absent...

May update occured, same links work, have more historical and art stuffs. Check it!

Finally! Fantasy General E-file now reached the FG Complete edition! Check the first post, click the banner, download and enjoy! Now two of my e-files are reached the "complete edition" state (Xeno General and Fantasy General). Now think about Dune e-file after some brake. A huge thanks to Bombast t...

So, I not sure how to start this whole thing... I could tell sad story about sad things but I think that would be a) unnecessary, b) took to much time from the readers and c) not think it would be morally adequate. Why? Because sure there are lots and lots of people with more and bigger troubles and...

A heartfully thanks for my promotion and congratulations to the other promoted comrades!

Duke Falcon

Comrade! Comrade!

Best wishes! Things would sure turn to better if you can believe in it. 50% of fate comes from our own will, so forge your better fate! Wish you luck for that!

Uh, struggling toward an FG complete. Made the last 3 nations units, soon put them in the e-file. Then comes the nine maps with their 5000x5000 dimensions +4 smaller ones before the last campaign could be assembled. And need to finish the manual's entries before put them together and drop them into ...

Greetings everyone! I remember there were something about bunkers able to house units inside. If I remember correctly that need to set up on scenario-level and not in equipment (or hangar size in equipment were the corresponding attribute?). Such "holder places\caches" could be used for any unit cl...

Duke Falcon

PeG's maptool worked that one may selected a certain terrain type then right-clicked on the hexes to change them. It is very similar to what Randowe wrote so I will try his method. Not sure how it would work for larger than 3000x3000px maps but seems better than lost 8-10 mins of selection work bec...

So, PeG-MW would late a tid-bit because of some issues. I mean the HDD I collected things, infos and such and used to create icons and maps died. The vital partitions got somehow corrupted rendered the HDD impossible to read. Half year of PeG stuffs (among many other other things) got irrevocable lo...

Finally - since had some time to afford for FG - composed Aer's pantheon: Avantou the Dark Reaper, Archgod of Death Raasar the Lightbringer, Archgod of Aer Rhyn'Annon the Lifegiver, Archgoddes, mother of Avantou and Raasar, abandoned Aer Anthagaar the Thundergod Arach the Spider goddess Handola the ...

Hi Luis! I want to know if it is possible that optionally use the OG Suite's map tools as the PeG's maptool worked? I mean select terrain type then assign hexes by click on them instead of the OG's mass change solution. The reason I ask this is that lately I have hand tremors, shakes and jittery fin...

Duke Falcon

I here to announce that my e-files would delay a bit. Currently "working on" project - FG complete - would be ready toward the end of this year (hopefully) because I accumulated 2 months lag with it... Mostly blame MWO for it, got a bit addicted by Faction Play, but some other issues also exists. Fo...

Duke Falcon

It were long ago, I frankly admit, that a game were such addictive for me like MechWarrior Online. So hard to finish it and not play "just one more match"! Everything I currently working on suffers serious delays (OG stuffs for example) just because I ride my gorgeous KGC-000 Kingcrab mech. Oh, I kn...

@Micha: I highly advice to install the latest version of OG and restart the campaign because: - Units number for both sides doubled and slightly differences may exist or some new units may have very usefull attributes (saboteur, for example) - Got new heroes what are essentially evening the gamepla...

Things so far are not trully better than 2020 were... I managed to transform a 100GB HDD from a dead laptop to an external drive. Installed MWO (MechWarrior Online) upon it, what took ~11 hours. Were lots of joy and happiness when the installer finished and the "Play" button appeared... Earthquake c...

Of Aer many stories may be told, From those not yet forgotten. Save some to which tongues fold, In silence from horror begotten. Much is uncertain, more is unknown. Feeble us mortals borne weakness. By each recounter new bits are thrown, And very little did I really witness. Of common folk comes lo...

Quo vadis Open General? First i want to say sorry, but i had to write this rant. It's been growing for a long time and i can't hold it back anymore :lol I also don't want to attack anybody. I am only angry about myself because i care to much about the game and community. I always wished i would hav...

Duke Falcon

Wow! It seems it were not only me who got so much protos playing this campaign! It seems you even received more often protos than me. But worry not, it will make the middle-to-late part (if remained mostly untouched) a walk-in-the-park :) As I played, I made certain modifications to the campaign an...

Duke Falcon

I'm trying to imagine how mind bending tides are in Aer... Do not get Luna as the basic moon as it is extremely large and thus our moon is an exceptation rather than common. And Aer is bigger than Earth since "super-earths" are far more common yet a lower density may result normal gravity even on a...

Duke Falcon

thanks for recommending Diablo for collection I also recommend Baldur's Gate series (BG1 + Tales of the Sword Coasts + BG2 + Throne of Bhaal)! Immense fun and a genuine game! Of course, first of all there is the usual advice to wash the figures before painting, on soapy water I think. I used cyano-...

I got interested. So when atomic blitz would be included in this e-file I want to give it a certain try!
May even playtest it

Duke Falcon

Right, I officially "mindf@cked". Ultrasound, X-ray, CT and MR are all negative but blood-samples still show tumour-markers (albeit very low level). It means they not declared me officially "recovered" and thus I still need to go to different doctors for different treatments and so on. So f**king bo...

Updated Fantasy General a tid-bit. In the main post the FG banner (if everything set-up well) leads to a ~254MBs ZIP package what (again, if everything done well) unzip an EFILE_FG folder. Put it or overwrite the old one to have the latest version. This is still a WiP version NOT a complete as I sti...

I got a tool called Greenfish Icon Editor and it could make cursors. Question is that OG cursors have any specifics (I know they must be static, not animated) like special palette or fixed dimension? Good editor, simple and free, I use it too! All OG cursors (.cur) are 32x32 256 colors (no special ...

Right, it is time to return to OG for a while. I want to finish the FG e-file if possible in this year. The to-do list is simple as always: make everything...

MW delayes a tid bit because of HDD death + data recovery.

Now equipment has 437 icons for the units. When saved it also generated an error message txt claims more than 400 icons are used... Is this a serious trouble?

Also rewrite the XenoGuide since the ingame unit descriptions and some graphical changes rendered it obsolate. Then I want to fi...
