MMX & avoiding CSF - XTF - 12.10.2011

IIRC there was a way to avoid CSF when using MMX maps. How was this done and does this also work in RA2 or is it YR only?


RE: MMX & avoiding CSF - WoRmINaToR - 12.10.2011

What exactly do you mean by "avoiding CSF"?

I'm also not sure if this has anything to do with Ares...


RE: MMX & avoiding CSF - Renegade - 13.10.2011

It's a bad sign when even I notice something could've been phrased more diplomatically, Worm. Be nice.

Administrative Notice:

Moved to general YR modding area.

Sorry, I don't think there's a way to do that. Blade might know better though.


RE: MMX & avoiding CSF - Blade - 13.10.2011

Not that I know of, was it a feature of Npatch maybe?


RE: MMX & avoiding CSF - XTF - 13.10.2011

Maybe the feature was requested but never implemented by WW. It's easy to implement though.


RE: MMX & avoiding CSF - AlexB - 13.10.2011

Am I the only one not knowing about the feature? Which feature/what's the problem? Wtf

Is it the requirement for MMX/YRO files to contain a PKT file pointing to a name string in the CSF file?

With Ares it should be possible using the NOSTR: prefix to use the tag value as text opposed to using it as a CSF file label. I haven't tested this, but NOSTR: might work.


RE: MMX & avoiding CSF - XTF - 13.10.2011

Yes, that's the feature!



RE: MMX & avoiding CSF - DCoder - 14.10.2011

NOSTR: works in all contexts where CSF is used, but it only allows up to 26 characters.


RE: MMX & avoiding CSF - XTF - 14.10.2011

Ah, thanks a lot! Is that an Ares feature or a YR feature? It's not working in RA2.


RE: MMX & avoiding CSF - DCoder - 14.10.2011

It's an Ares feature. (That's why I didn't mention it initially, under the assumption that if you were looking for Ares information you would have asked in the Ares forum.)


RE: MMX & avoiding CSF - XTF - 14.10.2011

I think I did post in the Ares forum, but the thread was moved.


RE: MMX & avoiding CSF - Renegade - 16.10.2011

...because there was no sign you were asking about Ares features.
