The editor and XP

hey, I'm about to get a new PC because my old one had a meltdown.
Does the editor work with windows XP or should I stick with 98
Also any suggestions about video cards?

Assassin respectfully,no I can't see that there aren't any games like this because I named quite a few. Dragonriders of Pern although an inferior game is about as close as you can come by almost any definition. Now just out is Gothic and Soul Reaver 2. Even that skittles game Darkened Sky is the sam...

well, if your'e right about PC people being first person shooter people then I'm certainly in the minority. I used to like them but now REALLY prefer 3rd person. I'm sure I agree with you however. Look at all the quality 3rd person games that have come out for the PC Drakan, of coursr, Blade of Dark...

Look under level properties under "flight ceiling" the default is way below the 200000
default layer height. Increase the flight ceiling to 35000-45000 above your layer height and you should be fine.

There is no dragon and it's an older game but I highly recommend Heretic II. Third person fantasy adventure with nice action and graphics. heavier on magic than Drakan. If you download the enhancement pack, you can play as male or female with lots of skins availible. There are also a number of sizea...

making things vanish

I don't quite get how to toggle things invisible from visible. I looked at examples but still don't get it. Right now I make things vanish by linking them to a fast dropping door. actually making them vanish like in some levels seems so much more elegant.

yes,so have I. I'm talking about using those custom skins as NPCS i.e. monsters which is a whole different ball of wax. it's even easy to use the existing Rynn's as NPCs because they have animations included but the custom armors don't have their own animations and so they need to be added making th...

Check the flight ceiling under level properties and make sure it's higher than your layer. if it isn't make it so. 35000 to 45000 above your base layer height is good. the default layer height is 200000.

Note I will always keep the original database intact but yes use the copied one. I had hoped to put the skins in the level database and add animations but as we talked about that would take up about 5 meg per Rynn. that's too large for me. Now I,m using custom skins as the players. that gives me new...

Yep, I figured that out but the level download then would be to big for my taste. But I can use custom skins as heroes and Rynn as npcs

The problem is the custom skins don't have their own animations so you would need to either find some way to load them with animations or copy the system ( or NPC using Tuiri) database and deleate everything unneeded then then change the textures. This would work but make the level a really big down...
