Post by technojunkie »

Thanks

No, the old mods do not work with 2.0.5. The reason for this is, we have recoded the game to use .wz files, instead of .wdg, or .wzw. So, you'll have to remake the mods and AIs. Sorry. =/

If you got the sources to the mod, it's easy: Just zip it up in a standard zipfile and change the extension to .wz.
(It needs to have the *.addon.lev file in it's root.)
If you don't, I heard there is some kind of converter script around... Can't remember where I saw it, though.

Ah, well...that's easy enough.

As far as the .addonlevel...wasn't that generated when compiling to .wdg? How do I get that? Sorry if I seem daft, but some of the technical particulars have escaped me... :P

Yes, it was Rod's script. Lost as is Rod, it seems.

As for the .addon.lev: Yes, I think the .wdgs should have the same file. I don't think anything was changed with the actual data, was it?

Fair enough... are there any 2.x mods currently in existence?[
