You did? Where!

I thought I'd tidy up the grammar as well, since Sapi isn't the best tts thing
to begin with and it really struggles with messy grammar. (Don't mind me, I'm
just a writer who notices stuff like that.)

If you're talking about Kingdom at War...I think I already updated it.

everything, so I have motivation. :P

I've had a conversation with him on skype about his dropping off the face of
the battleverse, and yeah, all the rewriting the map packs was what drove
him off. I did tell him he should come back though.

In the map pack menu, with the map pack to upgrade highlighted,
press control U.

Okay, I'll do that. :)



One more related thing, though. I know there's a trick to change
the map pack's parser version in one go, but I forget how that's
done. I thought it was a trick in the TB menu but I can't
remember what it is. I can't find it in the user guide or the
map creation guides or anything. :(

I'm
not really sure what's going on with Austin. Maybe a
year ago or so was making two or three really amazing
map packs. He never finished them though. I think at the
time a lot of updating was going on with tactical
battles which would've caused him to practically rewrite
the map pack a couple of times. I suspect he just got
frustrated, but for all I know he is right now training
cybernetic squirrels to steal the moon, grin.

I
would suggest sending him an email and see what happens.
If he doesn't respond... Then I would just say go for it.

I
may be wrong but I think Kingdom at war was the first
map pack to be laid out in the story format.

Hi,



Among other packs, I downloaded the "Kingdom At War"
series when I first got TB. Apart from the frustrating
grammar, the pack seems pretty good, but it's old.
Parser Version 2 old. What happened to the creator? I
suppose I could send him an email but I'd feel a bit
invasive doing that. I just think that pack should be
updated to comply with the current parser version and
maybe have the grammar tidied up a bit and it'd be
good to go. New content would also be kinda cool but
as the guy's probably no longer on the scene, I can
hardly expect that.



I was just curious.



On a slightly related note, does anyone else hate the
default map music as much as I do at this point? It
doesn't suit every situation and the Kingdom At War
maps don't have their own music. I'm doing my best to
give each of mine their own, even if some tracks are
re-used. I like appropriate music for each map.
