Dying since 2003™, resurrected in 2024!]]>Creating game installer from game demo, renegade fds maps and 1.037 patch game exe
http://renegadeforums.com/index.phpindex.php?t=rview&goto=492164&th=41124#msg_492164
-installs MP demo
-extracts the 1.037 game exe from the 1.037 patch
-extracts maps and data files from Renegade FDS
-adds demo always.dat into fds always.dat and adds missing sounds (.WAV) as silent sound file to prevent client from crashing:
-use C&C_Under.mix from demo as base (file size ~30mb)
-rename C&C_Under.mix to always.dat
-add demo always.dat files
-add silent sounds for missing WAV sound files(diff sound lists between demo and stock and add silent sounds for those missing
-add FDS always.dat data into the always.dat file
-add FDS maps.
-Install 4.0
-Has renlist as server browser
Issues:
-Missing the M00 single player maps
-Some missing textures
-Some missing non-essential sounds
-No serial
-Mixcheck.exe from 4.0 doesn't play well with this.
Here's what I have no, as a 7z file of the game folder...just need to turn it into an installer after I find something to deal with missing textures.

from what I know, they don't contain textures/sounds. Still it might be illegal..]]>sla.ro(master)2017-04-14T16:13:21-00:00Re: Creating game installer from game demo, renegade fds maps and 1.037 patch game exe

One issue is that XCC Mixer has weird behavior when extracting and inserting files with a backslash (\) in them...so my base always.dat file needs to contain the needed files with backslash.]]>iRANian2017-04-14T17:58:07-00:00Re: Creating game installer from game demo, renegade fds maps and 1.037 patch game exe

So we're just missing a bunch of map textures and the single player maps and TT 4.0 mixcheck doesn't play well with it.

I probably have everything you want separated out. RxD was originally the same thing your tying to do. We made the demo be able to play all maps and added the missing assets.
Using FDS files?
When are u on IRC]]>iRANian2017-04-15T10:09:47-00:00
