Enhanced Damage, LRT, & Hitman's Optics

02-15-09, 01:51 PM

I'm just about to start a new Wolves at War campaign (http://www.wolvesatwar.org) as it really increases my immersion.

However, before i do I'm hoping some people here might be able to answer a few questions.

1. I reallly really like LRT Full but I don't think its compatible with Racerboy's SH$ effects for SH3. It is compatible with GWX Enhanced Damage Effects so I was wondering what are the main differences between them ?

2. I'd like the use the SeaBed Repair mod but again I'm not sure if its compatible with LRT Full.

3. I think Hitman's Optics Mod is the best optics mod i've seen for a long while and I really like the idea of doing it like they do it on the ....sorry, I mean like they did it for real. But I notice it changes the Camera.Dat and Menu_1024_768.ini files. LRT also changes these files so i'm wodering whether I could install the optics over LRT without breaking anything too badly ?

I think that's it for now...any help would be, as usual, greatly appreciated.

Cheers, Hans

Bump, just because this fellow Kaleun should get some help before the WaW war starts, would suck if he didnt get any help before the war started :O

UG,
I can't answer your questions, but I strongly suspect they are all incompatible. You might get them to work if you merge the files, but .dat files requires special programs to change; You can try winmerge on the text type files.

If not, send me a list of all the mods you intend using and I'll sort it out for you.

What is the LRT mod?

I can easily provide you the minor tweaks I did in the cameras.dat file so you can create a file where the other mod and mine are mergued, but with the menu.ini it might be a bit more complicated.

Hi Hitman,
Longer Repair Times, there's only 4 or so settings in the LRT camera.dat to transfer, these are in the MechShocksPendulum parts.
As regards the menu_1024_768.ini there's 3 changes, 2 font changes and a change of scroll text position.
It was a while back when I made it compatable to OLC's GUI, just before NVDrifter had released his mod patches. I don't think the latest LRT will have any additional changes in those areas.
As regards the Enhanced Damage Effects and LRT, the 2 files Zones.cfg and particles.dsd will need merging, but its very easy to do, especially with winmerge and Silent 3ditor.

Well thanks both of you, if the changes that need doing could be listed then i'll try and make the changes/merges. I'd lover to have LRT and Hitman's optics (as part of Mikayl's Kombi) in my next WaW patrol
