I agree with the OP, although Im more up for proper documentation inside the .xml files. Good programming style anyone? xP I think that would help a great deal, of course it involves some extra effort to document all what you`ve done. Oh and yeah, credits do belong in the intro texts, at least in my opinion.
Awesome spells! [e digicons]k1[/e] to you!
Mods usually go into C:\Users\*USER*\Documents\My Games\Elemental and there you can pick a folder, it loads the .xml anyway. If the file requires another location, it is usually said. Hope this helps ^^
Glad to see it may be usefull to someone else ^^
[quote who="wraithstalke" reply="25" id="2756189"]@John_Hughes: Thank you very much! I'm kinda thinking this is all going to be irrelevant very quickly once they release the in game item maker, what takes like a couple of minutes editing xml and a little longer to find mistakes will probably take no more than a couple of dozen mouse clicks![/quote] Still you did it the manual way and provided people with additional items ^^
[quote who="Arkenor" reply="5" id="2754557"]Ahh, I see! Thankyou muchly! K_CityHubs.xml has this going on &l
Hmm ok that usefull thanks ^^ However why does the club show up and not the cap oO? Bugs me really. I just tinkered around with it and realized the OPs problem myself, weird.
Could you post your code? Would make things easier ^^
[quote who="eldrone" reply="10" id="2754473"] Quoting foxunit, reply 9 Dont think it is possible YET. Actually, I think the engine can do it, but stardock has chosen not to use normals or specular on the assets. the water and some other things uses normalmapping to achieve effects, and having looked at the shader code responsible for handling related things, it looks like it does do per pixel lighting, and has references to normal and specular maps. You ar

It is also interesting that some models do not need a texture location specified in their .xml
Aye I would prepare some models for import, but there is so little information about what is needed, BESIDES the converter ^^.
////////INTRODUCTION//////// Inspired by Barranoid and wraithstalke`s mods I decided to throw some things together myself, so people would have additional parts to choose from. Thats it pretty much :-) ////////DESCRIPTION//////// This mod currently adds, 29 different combinations of armor parts and more will come. Currently they are just enabled for SOV creation, but there WILL be altered versions for Unit creation and they will be available for ALL races
Ah I see, well to bad. Looking forward to it ^^
Im currently working on a few things, one of those things is this little mod. It basically adds different combinations of the armlets that are in the game and more will likely follow. At the moment I have 23+ combinations, they still need work: values, description and such. I think I will work on greaves after this one is done. Just wanted to let you know ^^ If you have a request, feel free to ask for it! Three of t
Great Idea, would clean things up! Ausserdem schadet Organisation nie ;)

////////INTRODUCTION//////// I stumbled upon this game like yesterday and I really enjoy it >. However there are some things that bother me, one of them is the lack of mage equipment. The result is, that almost every game I played my Characters were all wearing the same Plate, Sword etc. I wanted to mix things up a bit and I propably will add some more stuff in the coming days. ////////DESCRIPTION//////// This mod currently adds, 4 staves
Hey there ^^, so I tried to read through the forum to get as much information on this topic as possible, but tbh I fail ^^". I know I need the havoc kit, wich I already use, BUT I also need some sort of converter for Elemental. Of course there are other things like, what size do the models use, wich texture format and that alike. Could one of you provide me with that information? Thanks ahead! *EDIT* Nevermin
