(belated) NEWS: MD files released

Post by Vassenego »

As promised in the last X-Universe News, everything you need to develop your own missions using the Mission Director has now been made available by the Egosofties. Some of you are already making good progress in creating your own mission and game content.

You can find a topic regarding the Mission Director in the Scripting and Modding section of our forums. There you can get answers, download the files, read ongoing discussions about missions in development.

As is mentioned in the documentation you'll find with the Mission Director, this version is only a technology demonstrator and as such is provided 'as is' and is unsupported by Egosoft. That means we won't be making any changes or updates to it. That's not to say we don't care. Volunteers who already have significant experience with the MD are standing by to assist. Translations of the MD Guide are already being prepared for German and Russian.

In addition to the example files provided with the MD we thought it would be nice to share with you the very first mission designed using the MD. This mission was developed by CBJ and Toastie way back in Spring 2006 and is based on the X³ plot's first mission. This first mission was an important step on the way to developing the functionality you see today in the MD. Enjoy.

Gamma Escort Example Mission

It's a rar-file. Just download it and extract it into your MD's director folder. Than you can read it with your browser. Be warned, if you load or start a game with the SE activated the mission will try to run. To avoid this - move the file into the "samples" folder.

Hey, c'mon BugMeiser. You should know better than to dig up a 6 month old thread for no reason. ;)
