BnW2: OGaM - DEMO Coming Soon //Next Update: June 08//

new buildings added never been in it at all

nuthouse 250pl (mad house with killers/crazy people are keep) were they keep crazy people in so the public is safe from them.

some one blows it up or damage it, a lot of crazy people come out and start killing others near them.

best part who every is god closer (the nuthouse is in their zone of control) can direct them to wipe other out or their own people. you know a some crazy people hear spirts/ gods and follow their directions to do things like in mass killing.

these crazy people would have super stearth and for see events to come they know ahead of time how to act

they would have the option to pickup weapons any location axe, knifes, swords....ect they came across, only they can only use one type of weapons they pickup and not trade up for a better weapon

==================

fishing men they go out to waterways 3-5pl and get fish to feed the people or sell. small water ways they fish off the banks, larger waterways 8pl like lakes and sea's 20-25pl they go out in ships to get larger catch of fish to feed citys, large townships.

Is that for real or is it just an idea of yours? either way its an brilliant or could be an exiting feature


Daxter.
how's it going with BOTG?
have you guys created the skirmish and online tool yet?
what about the new units are they still under progress?
spearmen, cavalry, formations?

something that pop-in to my head

nuthouse would be like a time bomb that a god could use if they really like too

say another god taken over thier town and before they back away they let lose these crazy people.

the game does have farmers so why not fishing men as will. they could only work the waterways in the zone that one god is in control of.

As always the game is not code based so it shall rely on the release of an exporter and its really starting to annoy me that no-one is answering on that topic, so I dont know the progress of the stuff outside of the scripting which moves at a steady pace and as soon as the God AI is finished then the next land can be started on and it will get easier from there.

Actually I've encountered an odd problem with the skirmish tool...every time i click install i get a long error message and the tool crashes...Also when the OGaM folder is placed in the maps folder it will not appear on the main map list either...has anyone experienced this or can help at all?

Hey guys I am starting to find the skirmish tool quit difficult.

It tell me to put the files into CC is this correct?
 Land[2456].bwe/Land[2456].ter/Land[2456].Pat/Land[2456].wal/Land[2456].walk.xml/Land[2456].chl/load_screen_[2456].bmp

I get this message unhandled exception has occured in your application. If you click continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue. If you clikc Quit, the application will close immediately.

could not find a part of the path C:/Documents and settings/Thomas/destop/new folder.
(2)/Date/landscape/BW2/land2456.bwe.

Yes when I first started using it, it was quite difficult to understand, however plz ensure that you have .net framework 2.5 or higher so it can read stuff better.

As for your problems:

CC files are used for custom content such as bink videos, textures etc. the rest of the .sif is created by entering the parameters it says and checking off what you want the tool to find with the number of your land part of the name e.g. "Land2891.bwe" will be found as BWE file with land number 2891 as specified.

Also when creating a new .sif file for your land ensure that it has its own folder in the Skirmish directory. e.g. Black & White 2\Skirmish\Maps\OGaMGame.

Lastly make sure that the location of the skirmish executable and its associated files and folders are in the primary directory of your Black & White 2 game folder.

Hope this helps.

yeah it did kind og help

but still is this order right and am I doing it properly?
Land[2456].bwe/Land[2456].ter/Land[2456].Pat/Land[2456].wal/Land[2456].walk.xml/Land[2456].chl/load_screen_[2456].bmp

No worries it should work as long as you set the number of the landscape to yours (2456) and checked all options that you want the tool to find but apart from that it seems right.

well it dosent really work, it just pops up with the same error. This tool isn't really user freindly, I need a manual which is far more understandable for a noob like me, I mean its only you tough guys who can use this tool. I don't anything about what the files means and which order they are to be placed in.
the old way seems more easy right now

I've been meaning to find a way to put maps in-game easily. I'm a team member of OGAM and I always want to see what the maps I make will look like in-game.

Oh yes if you wish it to be done, send me the map files and I'll write a debug script so that you can view the map in-game with many controls over it but also to give you the chance to see what you can change to make it look better.

It would be SO COOL if you could get ship units and sail across seas and capture towns that way. Having your units run all the time gets pretty boring! Can't wait untill the exp. pack is released. 

Looks unreal so far. You guys can make and get custom effects in game right? Do you think it would be possible to use a custom effect as a water jet and then its effects similar to the throwing version of the shield miracle, just in one direction, so you could use it to kind've spray people over per say?

will this game be availible on disk?

No.

Is this expansion pack something that you need to edit the actual game to use, or does it run seperately from the official game just using the game engine?

In other words, does it effect the normal functions of the official game?

Yes. You'll need to install it (probably manually unless the team's figured out a way to make it automatic) just as with any other BnW2 map.

how's the progress going Daxter, you haven't posted anything new for a while now

If possible play as the japanese or Norse of something similar by changing building type etc?

Access to all content?

 

=D

Hello fellow black and white fans, I have been away some time but it has not been for nothing. Please see the relevant OGaM thread at kayssplace for new info.
