Map Editor

Map Editor conversion to Unity is complete. You can import the Unity package into any Unity project and use the "Magestorm" menu as shown in the screenshot.

Note: this is a raw data editor, not a visual editor.

Warning: backup your map files often. I would recommend a backup after each major change to a map.

If you find a bug or would like to request an enhancement, post it to this thread. If you figure out one of the "unknown" variables, please post your findings in detail.

Here is the oldest version of splat I could find. It's old! Not sure where I obtained it from...

Notice the README.txt file:

Developed By Interesting Systems, Inc and AUSI Corp.

If you have a copy of Aliens Online, Splatterball, Splatterball Plus or Spellbinder ---- that has a working offline mode (in win10). Please post!

To test a Mythic game in offline mode:

Code: Select all

MAIN.DAT

(at the bottom of the file)

[socket]
protocol=stream                     <-----------  change "stream" to "single"

address2=192.168.2.100
stream_port=10622

Here is a medium sized original map that I was working on a couple years ago... needs some polish but is beyond a good start.

Hey Slick by any chance do you have pcx editor by fork? I seemed to have lost it!

Kross, you can use GIMP (open source freeware) to edit .pcx files. I've been using it to do some of the textures on my magestorm clone project

can't figure out why I needed forks pcx editor. I have gimp, but I think It handles the palettes better.

I used photoshop, but don't remember what I clicked for the correct palettes.

CIM Converter (from Fork) **slightly modified**

I just now tested this to ensure it's working... works fine under Windows 10 64bit with Visual Studio 15.1 (26403.3)

This is the original VB source from Fork with the addition of the "Batch" button that I added.

Be sure to populate all three file paths before doing anything or an error will likely occur.

--- CIM file: folder with .pcx or .cim files
--- Col file: folder with .col files (usually a 'Light' folder)
--- Output File Location: path where new files are created

Does it let you edit col files? I always wanted to make more transparencies.

If Fork ever appears again, that would be a great question for him. It currently does not edit col files... that would be a great addition if someone has interest in tackling such a project.
