I'm super new to EgoBoo. I actually found out about the game through trying to look for md2 model editors. the first thing that struck me about it was its Bomberman 64 like look and that already brought back memories. I need help with control configuration and I want to have a resolution size of 1280x1024..unless thats not possible. I hope multi-player will soon be working as well Smile

Welcome! Yep that error has something to do with the informe database. Hopefully it will be soon fixed. Next version of Egoboo will support a ton more resolutions, actually any resolution your graphical driver supports! (Egoboo will detect them for you). Current version of Egoboo should support it too. You could try to put it in manually in setup.txt

you can edit the screen size in the setup.txt file to be anything you want (assuming it is a valid resolution on your computer).

In the next update, the video configuration will auto detect your full screen resolutions.

Hey and welcome to Egoboo! I was wondering about 1280x1024 as well, but bgbirdsey has solved our problem. Hope you can eventually contribiute something to Egoboo!

Hey, hi!
Like Agent of Dread said, it'd be great if you want to help us out here, especially if you're good at modeling (I have many models I want right now and just can't do it...), but if you're just here to play the game and such, that's cool too!

yeah, I got the resolution working earlier that way =]

I'm still super new and trying to beat the agent level where you rescue the fairies. I'm trying to do it without respawning, I already beat the gun pirate ship one after..that was so fun. I like how the enemies can be hurt by others and get caught in those bear traps. thanks for the warm welcome and I would be happy to contribute to this neat game. I usually play Quake and I have edited and made some models for it. I was just getting into trying to find an md2 editor so I can fix messy vertices for Soldier of Fortune and Kingpin. I am also a musician and I have been getting into making experimental/ambient type of music..so maybe I can make something. I like the music I hear so far. so is there going to be a server based multi-player or anything cool like that soon? =]

Welcome to the team. I really can't wait to see your stuff.

Welcome to the party. Smile

Great to hear we have a new modeller, and a musician.

As for editing Md2s:
You can use the Q2 modeller ( found in the dev bundle ) or download the golem model editor at Golem3d.com

You do models, that's cool!
You do music, that's not cool!
(That means you'll get to do everything because it takes me so long to do mine... Very Happy

)
No, seriously, it's a good thing, actually.
I think at some point the whole game should have 100% unique music. The music it has now is cool, but still, how much cooler would it be if it was specifically made for the game and all that, right?

Ours was. At least the menu music. That was by Klastek Timrak for us.

He was on the same project as us. How could it be 'isn't'?
