Not only did I make an enhanced edition of the first campaign, I also gave some love to the second one – a patch 1.2. Full mod download: https://en.webshare.cz/#/file/SEMccJokoA Patch notes: - Fixed a major bug that caused the game to crash when starting turn-based combat in some late...

Hi, here's my late reply for late reply :) I don't use version control / repository except for work. When I worked on my previous campaigns with one helping hand, we were just sending the files over instant messenger (ICQ/Miranda at that time). We never worked on the same file at the same time...

Hey guys, after a long time, I finally persuaded myself to write a tutorial for the campaign editor. Don't know if anyone will use it, but here you go. I also included some less-known stuff you can do that's not about campaigns. It's a first version, worked on it just today. I might add /...

I used the goliath sprite in my campaign Children of the Apocalypse 2 and I had to make sure the entity is overencumbered, then it moved. I was unable to make the omegabeast work, though I don't remember if the problem was walking or if it was unable to attack at range. Now that I think about...

It's hard to come too late to a project like this. :) Honestly, I didn't do much since last posting here. Some proof of concept work, some graphics stuff, got myself a soundtrack. Biggest thing probably is that now I have a draft of the story and I know what will the missions be about (and on...

It's probably possible (and easy, if you know a little bit of programming) using the Fallout Tactics Scripting Engine.

The vertical bar can be moved, IIRC by holding space and dragging mouse. If you plan to use the editor often, I recommend reading the official manual shipped with the game, there are many useful functions and key bindings (I wish I knew about 20 years ago).

Messing around with nice, but irrelevant stuff. Out of the blue came an idea to give a price tag to each crewmate. Nothing will be paid upon recruitment. Instead, that amount of money will be subtracted from the job (quest) paycheck. I have yet to figure out what will happen if the reward goes...

I am slowly working on the technical background of the campaign. Turning the stones of FTSE and editor, finding what will it let me do. Lot of disappointment, where I was just a step short of making some cool stuff. For example, I nearly had a process of accessing the ship from anywhere on the...

Good news! With some story... A few days back, I returned to my idea of making Firefly: Tactics. I once again started trying new, unorthodox stuff. Yesterday I was trying to simulate environment without oxygen, which would need you to wear a proper environmental armour (space suit). That would...

Well, it's really strange that it happens only to some people and only sometimes. With no way of looking under the hood, there's basically nothing I can do about it. Killing everyone is a viable solution, if you have the firepower. It also makes the next mission easier. I am truly sorry you had...

As you say. Snipe is for long range, while the classic single is for "omg he's around the corner!". On top of that, the 7.62 mm ammo has 15% armor penetration I think (while 5.56 has none). This will increase the actual damage done against most opponents without being visible in the inventory...

No. The possibilities are limited mainly to inventory operations, variable checks, some perks, combat modifications (damage calculations and stuff). Now that I think about it, variable quest rewards are also possible (without creating several triggers and items, for example for each stat/skill...

I was thinking more about changing the portrait with this (would be great when doing the race change, right?). Also if you have the strings prepared in front, you can just switch between them. I know where you aim with the dynamic changes, that's another level. Accessing the entity name and...

A few weeks ago I was thinking about starting my new project (the Firefly campaign) so I started exploring FTSE which I definitely want to use in some way. I had a couple of ideas for new perks. Most of them aren't doable, because it's impossible to access character's current HP or AP (or...

I don't think it's possible. At most, you can get the list of actors by using Tools -> Dump Actors in map editor (creates a .txt file on C:).

The number of weapons is smaller since the game is much shorter. There are some new weapons and most of the old ones are slightly reworked to fit the progression. Armors are slightly reworked as well. Their number is similar to vanilla. Lot of them are unique, but you'll command fewer characters.

I tried all the previous crash scenarios and so far no crash. Looks like you did it!

That's why I focused on small-scale campaigns. If the tunnel is too long to see the light at the end, you're not going to make it. Not alone. It's better to release small but finished thing, instead of joining the many carcasses of great, expansive mods laying around. If you enjoy making puzzle...
