Thanks!
The X-WING 3do contains the following files.
XWING.3DO
XWING.TXT ---- This file.
Installation:
If you don't have DFUSE and want to install the 3do into your game you
will need to have an ungobbing utility. Download UNGOB.EXE from the
Star Wars library on AOL. It is dated 2/10 under Dark Forces Utility PC.
Copy the DARK.GOB file from your Dark Forces CD ( E:\DARK\DARK.GOB )
into a directory where you can edit it. Copy UNGOB.EXE into the same
directory. Type UNGOB DARK.GOB. This will extract all the files in
DARK.GOB. Now you need to decide where you want to put the 3do. Go
ahead and play that level with the cheat code LADATA turned on. You
might also want to turn on the cheat code LAREDLITE to freeze all of
the enemies. Stand in the middle of a large sector. Write down the
coordinates shown on your screen, this will be used as your x, y, and
z in the definitions section ( see the example below ). The YAW is
tottally up to you. For reference, 0 is the top of your map in DF.
90 is to the right of your screen. 180 is the bottom. 270 is to the
left. It can be any angle you choose from 0 to 360. 360 is the same
as 0 though. Follow the instructions below.
1. Copy XWING.3DO into your Dark Forces directory (C:\DARK).
2. Edit the .o file of the level you want to put the ship into.
The .o file contains all the objects in the level, i.e. Stormtroopers,
Kyles ship, etc. Add to the following.
# 3D OBJECTS
# ==========
*/
PODS N ( Add 1 to N number, in this case it would be 5 )
POD: DEATH.3DO # 00
POD: ........... # 01
POD: .......... # 02
POD: ........... # 03
POD: XWING.3DO # 04 ( Add )
# OBJECT DEFINITIONS
# ==================
*/
OBJECTS NNN ( Add 1 to NNN number )
Add the following in the definitions section.
Everything will be the same accept for the "DATA: " number,
which will correspond with the POD counting down from 0. The
following DATA numbers are just an example. Make sure they are
the same as the line you added to the PODS statement in your .o file.
/* xxx : XWING.3DO */
CLASS: 3D DATA: 4 X: 325.00 Y: 4.00 Z: 227.00 PCH: 0.00
YAW: 0.00 ROL: 0.00 DIFF: 0
******NOTE********
The origin point of the X-Wing is right in middle where the imaginary "X"
of the wings cross. When you insert the 3DO make sure it is above the
ground at least 6 units. You should play around with it to see which
height is the best for you.
That should do it. Make sure that your new .o file is also in your
C:\DARK directory. Have fun. Next..................?
