Re: Is it possible to extract character skin?

There is no option to export RECs or REOs of characters in Level Editor. The pseudo-REC of Arokh was created using debugger and it still do not contain correct matrices data (it uses database patcher to restore correct matrices after using this pseudo-REC look in http://www.arokhslair.net/forum/view...

Re: Export Landscape

Yes - as I remember you need to export textures separately (or make your own files with corrent names - you can read names and paths in the .REO).

Also no export textures with alpha maps - you need to generate alpha maps yourself.

Re: Problem with Arohk

May be you insert Arokh as NPC or Animation Demo or other sort of object. You need to insert it with class Dragon or close as game character. Also it is good to make level archive available for download so may be anyone can load it into Editor and look what may be wrong.

You need to manually force on antialiasing (and also anisotropic filtering to reduce texture noise on low angles) in the control panel of your graphic card driver.

As I think anisotropic filtering replaces trilinear filtering with much better result.

445SP1 was designed mostly for NoWhere level and 2 additional special attack animations. What it changes: 1. Removed special camera rotation mode from 'left' special combo (left-forward-attack) and from 'back' special combo (forward-backward-attack). 2. For 'left' special attack added 2 active 'hitt...
