Just Found Op2 Discs Want To Play Again
« on: February 11, 2009, 09:26:50 AM »
I posted in the master thread, making this one so i can respond to people without worrying about spamming. I already pm'd Hooman about modding.


----copied from the master thread----

name: Garrett
favorite games: outpost 2, starcraft ,diablo 2, the sims 1.

I was cleaning out my computer room when I found my outpost 1 and 2 discs and most of the manuals. I fired them up and found out that multiplayer no longer worked sad.gif. I typed ["outpost 2" multiplayer] into google and hit I'm feeling lucky. This site popped up so I joined. I remember this game was awesome back in the day and I'm glad some other people still play. I haven't played this in ages so I probably suck, so bear with me.

About me: I'm currently at a college in my state (I'll tell in a game but not in public) majoring in electrical engineering and minoring in computer science. If anyone else knows how to mod or wants to start shoot me a pm. I just turned 19 on February first w00t. I know C/C++, VB, and Java. If anyone can give me a few pointers (hehe pun) on how to start modding and adding to the game I'm really interested so please shoot me a PM.

Is there a place where I could see all the statistics like range, damage, colonist growth rates at different morale levels?

Howdy.
Check out the programming forum for modding info.
For game stats, check out sheets.vol (you'll need VOL Extractor and Sheets Reader, both of which are... somewhere...)

Edit:
Get Sheets Reader here and VOL Extractor here.

Awesome thanks, I found the programming forum but I couldn't find anything really in depth on the wiki.

That's because the wiki is like a garbage heap: you might find something useful, but most of the time you're up to your neck in crap.

Sirbomber, remember that not everyone seems to be able to use VOL Extractor, so a link to the .rar with the sheets is also a good idea.
