MapConv 2.4 with GUI

2010.04.05 - 16:18:29

category: Tools
description:
This is version 2.3 of Beheriths mapconv: Mapconv advanced version by Beherith. --2.4 minor bugfixes --Version 2.3: Added support for parsing lua files made by the feature placer (available by launching GUNDAM RTS 1.21 in sandbox mode) Example line format: { name = \'ad0_baobab_2\', x = 2184, z = 1976, rot = \"0\" }, Each feature will be placed at the coordinates specified and with the rotation specified. The command line parameter for this option is: -k featureplacement.lua Also included Das Bruce\'s wonderful GUI for mapconv, so you no longer have to mess with batch files, and it should make compiling easier for newbies as well. Packaged the Start position placer tool as well, its really simple to use, and i can only recommend it to anyone wanting to place more than two start positions :) --Version 2.21: three new options added: -z \"string\" Optional parameter. Defines the texture compression method to be used by nvdxt. MUST contain -file at the END! -r [number 0 to 255] randomly rotate the first \"number\" features in featurelist (fs.txt by default). Since first feature in fs.txt is number 255 red on feature bitmap. IMPORTANT: ADDED FEATURES TO FS.TXT You can specify a number between -32768 to 32767 to specify the rotation amount of that feature. Multiple definitions allowed. 16384 is 90 deg counterclockwise rotatio, 8192 is 45 deg counterclockwise, -16384 is 90 deg clockwise. Exception: -1 will force random rotate. Example fs.txt: btreeclo-3 btreeclo-3 0 btreeclo-3 8000 btreeclo-3 16000 btreeclo-3 24000 btreeclo-3 32000 btreeclo-3 -8000 btreeclo-3 -16000 btreeclo-3 -24000 btreeclo-3 -32000 btreeclo-3 Examples: -z \"nvdxt.exe -dxt1a -nmips 5 -fadeamount 0 -Sinc -sharpenMethod SharpenSoft -file\" -z \"nvdxt.exe -dxt1a -nmips 5 -file\" MapConv -i -c 0 -x 250 -n 25 -o Zion_v1.smf -t t.bmp -a h.raw -m m.bmp -f f.bmp -z \"nvdxt.exe -dxt1a -nmips 5 -file\" -q -z \"string\" Optional, -q Enables CUDA for geforce 8 and higher gpus.

UpSpring Texture Pack v2

2010.03.22 - 20:01:51

category: Tools
description:
Features: - Fixed Cavedog texture pack (compared to the one released with UpSpring 1.54 EA) - Guardians of Kadesh textures - Talon Textures - The Lost Legacy texures - Common Textures for both Talon & The Lost Legacy (seems that these two mods share a lot of textures) - Rhyoss textures - Argon textures - Rumad Textures (some of the textures where found in Talon & TLL texture packs, others who have the same name are different from those found in other texture packs) - Some more textures, aka expansion 2 (Exp2) Many of the texures featured in those mods where projectile textures or transparent textures for special effects hacked into the original TotalA.exe . Those files where removed as units that used them arent compatible with Spring. It may seem that this texture pack has fewer textures in Cavedog pack than they where by default instalation of UpSpring. And thats true because many of the textures are subsequent frames of animated textures which are not supported by Spring at the time. By removing those you have more room for textures that actually matter. In order to use this texture pack safely do following: 1. Create a folder for backing up your UpSpring current texture packs 2. Move all .zip archives and .gcf files into that folder 3. Move texgroups.cfg and archives.cfg into that folder 4. Extract this archive into UpSpring folder 5. Run UpSpring and from Settings menu choose "Texture archives" 6. Browse and add all archives you want to use from this texture pack (Cavedog_Textures are highly recomended) 7. From Settings menu choose "Texture groups" 8. Click "Load group from file" and choose the .gcf file for the Texture archives youre using (Cavedog_Textures consist of multiple groups) 9. DONE In order to use any of the textures in your mod make, sure that its located in /UnitTextures/TAtex/ folder. if you use Side/Race logos make sure that they are listed in teamtex.txt in the same folder. I dont claim authorship over any texture included in this pack. Feel free to use them for anything you want.

This is for opening Total Annihilation file formats! Opens .ufo .hpi .gp3 and .ccx files. --------------------------------------------------------------------- HPIView 1.9.1 - Windows HPI file viewer and extractor. This program provides an Explorer-like interface to the HPI file, allowing you to poke around and extract or view individual files from it. Just run HPIView.exe, select File/Open from the menu, and start browsing. You can also specify an initial file to open on the command line. Hint: Place a shortcut to HPIView in your WINDOWSSendTo directory. Then right-click on the file, and send it to HPIView. When you see a file you want to grab, right-click on it, and select File/Extract. To extract all the files in the HPI file, select File/Extract All, and then point to a directory to extract to. To view the file without extracting it, just double-click on it, or select File/View from the menu. The program can view text, BMP, PCX, JPG, WAV, TNT, GAF, and SCT files. If it doesnt know how to view the file, it will show a hex dump of it. The GAF files in TAK will look a bit wonky because of the different palette. I will fix that in the next release.
