New Colony Game Revised

[Angellus Mortis]

Main topic is here.

Current Version 0.50. 8/14/2010 4:00 EST

This uses Sirbomber's Multitek2 with just a slight change I made (bug that I found) and needs the modloader. Becuase of that, included is a newer version of op2ext.dll from SVN that Arklon compiled. Overwrite the old one. The only possible error is that the OP2 will crash on exit on Windows XP (someone test it and tell Arklon/Hooman).

TO PLAY: UnZIP all the files and place them as is into your OP2 folder, overwriting op2ext.dll. Then use the Outpost2 Multitek2.bat file to open OP2 and use the Outpost2 Multitek2 version.

Post feedback.

still doesent seem to work well for me, keeps giving me an error window... maybe if its just me you could help me on IRC?

thanks

I am sorry, I compiled with the wrong settings. It works fine now. Download and play.

Also, if you are having the error where Outpost2 is always loading Multitek2 and you no longer can initialize the regular colony games, then make a separate copy of OP2 and remove the Multitek2 files from one.

I noticed a few things that seem like bugs, possibly related to multitek2 file or files(depending if the vehicle ini and the rest are included).

the pastebins should last a month unless I did something wrong(they'd die in  an hour)

I have pm'd sirbomber just incase it's related to his files(but by how it seems, it's just research and not the entire sheets but I could be wrong)

maybe pastebin isn't needed...., but another odd one down below

anyway I'm stopping here, maybe consolidate them to sirbomber or something

The only thing I can think of is that it is something with multitek2. I have never seen that before.

The 3rd one is what happens when you use super-powered storms.
