Technical Support / Re: Failed to load game on editor

« on: September 01, 2013, 04:28:14 PM »

This is terrible I can't work on my assets without being able to test run

I've tried uninstalling from steam, ran ccleaner for registery and extra after that, and installed a fresh hammerwatch via steam.

Things I'd like to see for modability:

Customizable heroes/classes
Spells/abilities
Effects triggered by both abilities and scripts.


What kinds of things is everyone looking for?

Some of those things already exist, just to to a capacity that modders can use them. For example, the Mage does set things on fire with combustion, there is frost/slow effects, the warlock poisons, the paladins stun, etc.

What I think would be better would be to open up the modding to include heroes and their abilities on top of everything else. I think much braver and better projects will come along when that can happen

Mine is giving me 'failed to load level' when trying to run any game from editor. Even ones that worked previously like the Test level that comes with it? :*(

This is weird because it was working before, and now its not?

I like the "corpse is here for a few seconds, then disappears" approach too.

Nice scorpion!

Thanks! Means a lot I'm having a blast pouring hours into making these things. I've got a few more almost polished, I hope to make a decent custom map soon to showcase some of these things. I'm particularly proud of one item that I can't wait to show off

Some of the things in the XMLs are self explaining, but others are a bit confusing. Has it ever been mentioned if this game is going to be open source? Would really help the modding out I think.

What is required for that to work? What are the minimum requirements for it to pack a .hwm? And on top of that, I have a .hwm that is not showing up in the game either :/ (But Greywatch, Doom 1.4, etc show up just fine)

Editor Discussion / Behaviors, Spells (actors)

« on: August 27, 2013, 06:36:10 PM »

I'm wondering, is there a list of all the available behaviors for actors?

From the XMLs I gather:

Behaviors:
Melee
Ranged
Caster
Bomb

Abilities:
Blink
Summon
Heal
Nova
Seeker

Are there any others? Or any explanations on how each of them work in the XMLs?

Resources / Re: [Creature] Scorpion ! Almost Finished - Death Animation

« on: August 27, 2013, 08:48:49 AM »

the corpse will spawn at the end of a death animation.

On mine, the corpse spawns at the beginning of the animation, and also at the end. So it looks almost like theres two corpses. The way I have it now though, I like it better I think - it plays an animation and shows the corpse for 5 seconds, then it blinks out. A bit like in the older TMNT games eh?

The towers, spawners, and bosses don't have a death animation though? The corpse.xml is just the one frame, and the actor doesn't have a death animation in their .xml?

Can someone provide an example of a map that is possible to drag over into the editor?
