CEP Compatible Hakpaks are now complete!

Themicles · Post by **Themicles** » Mon May 31, 2004 7:52 pm

First I want to state that Avlis HAS NOT implimented these haks at the time of this posting, but this announcement is to allow you to download them ahead of time.

That's right. The CoPaP and Universal hakpaks, as well as the CoPaP TLK, are now fully CEP compliant! Once these haks are implimented on the Avlis servers, you WILL need the CEP.

Here are the new version numbers and filenames:
CoPaP Hak version 4.2 (CoPaPHak4_2.hak)
CoPaP TLK version 3.3 (CoPaPTlk_3_3.tlk)
Universal Hak version 4.2 (UniversalHak_4_2.hak)
CEP Version 1.01

On top of making the hakpaks CEP compatible, I've also made new base items for the Avlis custom icons so that we can have more room to expand, without worrying about the CEP, or BioWare, overriding them. Of course, this means that existing crafting items will need to be modified, or remade, but its worth the lack of future hassle.

I've also made three new base item groups for new fish icons that I've made myself.
Small Fish (8 icons) (Base Weight 0.5 lbs)
Medium Fish (5 icons) (Base Weight 10 lbs)
Large Fish (4 icons) (Base Weight 19.4 lbs)

For builders, heres an image that documents the names of the real life fish that the icons are based on, as well as recommended weights. Due to some unknown reason, I could not set the Large Fish category to have a base weight of 30 lbs, as the document suggests. Also a note for builders... DO NOT USE AVLIS MISC LARGE YET. It will crash your toolset due to a lack of any icons for that base item.

Well done Themicles.

Just a thought - if CEP is not in use yet, how come there is a Brownie just north of Elf Gate please?

Aren't they part of CEP, or are they just HotU?

Actually I'm pretty sure they're a part of the preexisting Avlis haks.

FOR BUILDERS:

Module Hakpak order:

CoPaPHak4_2.hak
cep1patch.hak
cep2da.hak
cepanatomy.hak
cepbaseitem.hak
cepcreature.hak
cepplace.hak
cepportrait.hak
ceptexture.hak
UniversalHak_4_2.hak

This order is VERY important.
It is also VERY important to have the CoPaP TLK 3.3 attached to the module! If you do not, you will have a LOT of broken NPCs after making new ones, or even just VIEWING their properties...

Just out of curiousity, is CEP 1.01 fully back compatible with the 1.00 version?

AFAIK, no.. they made some 2da changes to fix certain bugs that were discovered..

A big happy thanks to Themicles for all his hardwork. Also, thanks to Jordicus who is hosting these files.

I got all three files very quickly with no problems.

Best,

I prefer to think of it as "Lucky Le'Or - first to get massive updates".

By the way... thanks to Themi, Jordi, and Maska, for putting this all together for us.

The CEP introduces a huge and exciting range of new options, which I am personally very excited to see. A plethora of placeables, as well as a ton of toys, and even a myriad of monster models, will allow us a lot of new flexibility in building. I do not exaggerate when I say this change is as big as either of the expansion packs, in its own right.

So thanks once more to Themi for doing this, and to Jordi and Maska for helping him.

Wow! The fish icons will be a great addition to Avlis. I've always looked at the bait and tackle stand in Ferrel whenever I walk by it and wondered what the fishing was like in Avlis.

Are the names going to be the same as in the picture?

Seems the site is either overloaded or down because I cant get to it. Anywhere else we can download these?
