Patch and Editor News

The latest ::

The patch should be completed in about a week. BUT, it has to go through testing and may or may not be bundled with a LEVEL EDITOR application. It will depend on when the LEVEL EDITOR is complete.

So, don't expect it next week. This patch addresses the dual core CPU issue along with other technical bugs, but may include some gameplay and user interface fixes. Don't expect any new levels, weapons or characters, etc., in this patch.

ROFL

was actually a funny one this time in the night

he must be, but so long as they improve this game, I don't care if he's professional or just helps/keep in touch with 'em

I just wanna know if the Devs' likes our 'work'

lol

The developers are keenly aware of the mod community and GT. They want folks to create mods to help generate more interest in the game.

Some of the challenges Pandemic has faced has been resources. Both people and time. That is why we haven't seen really mature modding tools that you get with other big-name titles.

Now that Pandemic has merged with Bioware and gained funding, they will be in the position to take their time and build better games and tools.

As a matter of fact they are already having planning meetings about what is coming up next. (top secret)

Glad to hear it. So, it would be realitic to expect the mod tools in about a month or two? Sounds good, but i think i'll go with "when it's done"

Stable? Not to sound offensive or anything, but this is probably the glitchiest game I've ever played. It's always crashing on me right in the middle of the game, plus there's a lot of system bugs, glitches, etc.

It's a good thing a patch is finally coming out. I was waiting for one. I'm desperate to fix these Diet Dr. Pepper crashes.

Any idea on the the complexity of the mod tools?

Post by **guru** » Thu Dec 08, 2005 7:57 pm

KonKushn is a reliable source of anything swbf , he is with Taw and was a member of the beta with a few of us that actually were active before the private beta forums and swbf2 testing site area was removed. Although he isnt from Pandemic this is welcomed news and is as close to Pandemic as it gets.

Projects Q, X, Y & Z (check the pandemic website) ? Is one of them SW related?? or are we still not going to get a clue?

EDIT:

I also had this problem until Nvidia pulled their fingers out of their arses and produced a decent driver (v81.**) then it worked fine, check out all your drivers and settings and see if that helps.

Where do you find so much information, KonKushn?

dreadlordnyax · Post by **dreadlordnyax** » Thu Dec 08, 2005 10:10 pm

does anyone have any idea of how similar the modding tools will be compared to those of bf1? in other words, if i want to mod bf2 is it worth looking into how to mod bf1?

I'm definitely not alone in my opinion, I see. My point is, this game needs a patch badly.

Thats a good question...what would the mod tools do? Are they editing programs or a utilities that that extract a the files into a format that can be edited with other programs usch as 3d max and photo shop?

Really...

so, great news on the mod tools and patch.
Will the mod tools still use zeroedit and be compiled like psych0fred's old SWBF1 tools?
As for the patch, I only notice occasionaly crashing. Sometimes it runs slow and online I occasionaly "lose connection to the host", yet when I go back I find everyone else still playing and that I can reconnect.

Post by **Qdin** » Fri Dec 09, 2005 8:36 am

well, I never crashed on this new computer

there were a FEW times in the BETA on my old computer though

but that's fixed

I love this game too much to care about crashes and glitches :')

Well, tell the other TAW's that I'll play more with them

lol
and are you a modder or modeller or mapper or something? or are you just a really valuable source?

(sry about the curiousity(sp?))

Excellent news on the patch and tools. This game has too much to offer and far too much scope to be ignored. Many have criticised Pandemic and Lucas Arts about the game. Hopefully this should put the weiners in there place. All games have problems and especially a game built on the Star Wars mythos, it can't be everything everyone wants, hopefuly with the tools and good community support it can become the best Star Wars game yet.
