ModuleSystem is your friend?

[Millenium]

If you understood a word of that, you should be proud!

[Darwin]

who?

[Darkstar707]

If you understood a word of that, you should be proud!

I did!

I used to edit game files in different games all the time, in this one (tribes vengeance) I basically modded my server to let you have unlimited jetpack *gas* (fun)

[Sibylla]

I haven't tried with the module system but I don't think it would solve the problem since it works like the txt files right???
I'll try it though =]

[The Red Baron]

could we change those body meshes to make dwarves?? Just make smaller humans and put them ingame

[Darwin]

dont think its possible, probably the axe is 1 meter away then

[Sibylla]

we can't for now because if we scale the meshes we'll have to scale the skeletons, & if we scale the skeletons they'll no more fit the native animations. so untill a new version of BRF that allows adding new animations get released we'll have to deal with huge dwarfs

[Goromous]

That would be fine for the first release, I think.

[Jubal]

Give 'em BIG old beards and it'll all be fine.
