OpenZone 7.9

[Windcatcher]

The orcs took longer than anything else...

1. Fixed an engine bug that could cause a crash.
2. Fixed a bug where the ground editor would show textures flipped.
3. Added GeorgeS' orc model (with five subtypes) to the creature library.

The orc models are all a bit different than the ones GeorgeS submitted--I had to make them have the same overall bodily proportions and I had to fix some problems (and had to make them match my skeleton). I also had to change the boots on one because both the live client and SimpleClient demand textures for everything. Since they all have different meshes, they'll likely only work with SimpleClient. I have no idea what the live client will do with them. Try them with it at your own risk :)

Thanks again WC , that makes it easier :)

Unfortunately I found yet another bug in the ground editor and will be releasing 8.0 at some point. It's not a showstopper, though, so I might take the time to do some other things to the program as well.

WC, thank you for such an amazing set of tools.

Am I good with them? Nope.

Do I understand them yet? Nope.

Am I excited that these tools make new zones possible? YES.

Well this is the OZ Q&A forum so if you need help just ask.

Hy WC, remind me once again, What forms of textures does OZ support? BMP and what else? Ive looked and know you said at one time but cant find it.....TGA?? or ? thanks. Not DDS right?

[Windcatcher]

I used to have support for .TGA files but I doubt it works anymore. I tend to only use .BMP and that's all I've tested in a very long while.
