 Re: DarkStorm Military Technologies - Updated 7/11/08 Just like I said before:
1) I download your amazing .zip
2) I use WinRar's amazing right-click "unzip here" to unpack my mod in my CC dir.
3) I then run cortexcommand.exe which loads all other mods except yours.
This issue is dating back from B11 when amrobotics released his metal slug mech. Its some crap with windows that ♥♥♥♥ up the file and when one tries to unzip it and use with CC, it just wont recognize it. Rar instead, works perfectly. Not sure about other zipping formats, but rar works 100%.
Also whats your OS?

Also whats your OS? This always happens to me too I just get a new folder and put all the stuff in there. Works fine then

Re: DarkStorm Military Technologies - Updated 7/11/08 The zipping format native to the windows operating system messes up zip files. The winzip program seems to fix the compatibility problem between "aftermarket" programs. This is in my experience, anyways.
What program are you using to pack these?

Re: DarkStorm Military Technologies - Updated 7/11/08 I have Windows Vista. I use WinRAR to make the archives.
The last time I got into this discussion, I decided not to change over because other people complained about zips. Maybe I should just release both.

Re: DarkStorm Military Technologies - Updated 7/11/08 numgun, instead of saving the zip and rightclick-extractto, just open it off the bat and use the in program "extract to - > <ccfolder>"
i works for me, everytime. zip or rar.

i works for me, everytime. zip or rar. Both new folder "DarkStorm.rte" and copypasta all the stuff into it and this method seems to work. Guess its up to you Darlos, it does require doing either of those methods for the people it doesnt work. In any case if you decide to stick with .zips then give a hint for the people who have these problems.

Re: DarkStorm Military Technologies - Updated 7/11/08 I don't know about anyone else, but I've found that the Turret looks good on top of Lord Tim's stone shafts in his Adventures in Science pack.
(I swear Roy-G-Biv, if you make a stupid comment about this).
EDIT: And I'd really like to see a pack of bunker modules for these guys.

Re: DarkStorm Military Technologies - Updated 7/11/08 wouldnt we all? however, bunkermodules are quite a lot of work, just because of the variation you need. also we have no DS brain yet

Re: DarkStorm Military Technologies - Updated 7/11/08 I've noticed that since the Shoten runs faster than the average clone, their feet don't have as well traction. Maybe you could make a new material for their feet and raise the friction. You also need to lower the PushForce in thier normal WalkPaths, they sometimes seem a bit "jumpy"

Re: DarkStorm Military Technologies - Updated 7/11/08 Although Darlos put the robo in the discriptions, he didn't actually put in the mod yet. He will probably release it in the next update.
