Plugin Question

Post by DeadHamster »

Is there anything that phenomena's plugins havent covered in HMT, or has he gotten everything.

A simple yes/no is all I need.

And the stuff he has missed can be done with HMT. I believe I read somewhere that it cannot handle certain things, and that eschaton was set up so that it could.

Entity Plugins, check them out, they open a lot of options.

Recursive reflexives. Basically a reflexive within a reflexive (to whatever depth you wish). That's one of them. Dependencies and loneIDs are not supported, non-4 byte length values, colors, special reflexive related pointers. All of those cannot be handled by HMT. Aside from that though, there's several sections missed by the 64 pack just because of lack of interest in those types of tags.

To help with your entity plugin making here are templates for most tag types.

Note: Some of the .ent plugins may be "finished".
Note 2: Future program <darwin> wiill support type "unknown" in this format.

Code: Select all

<unknown name="unknown1" offset="0x0" Visible="true" helptag="First unknown type"/>
Now here is the template files, converted straight from guerilla.

Okay thanks you everybody. I'll probably look more into making entity plugins, since there is more that can be done there. Thanks again.
