Adding new (already existing) tracks? #5

Open Korodny opened 6 years ago

Korodny commented 6 years ago

In 2004, a hacked version of the original Amiga game was released, containing 8 new tracks:

The original author of the Remake (i.e. Dan V) hasn't replied to my mail. Would you be willing to add these new tracks to your version?

I could probably find somebody who extracts the track data of the new tracks from the Amiga game. I don't know if the remake is using the track data as is, or if it needs to be converted to a more suitable format first?

ptitSeb commented 6 years ago

Yes, sure, that would be great! The remake is using track data as-is, so if you can provide the data (and the names of the tracks), I should be able to integrate them.

Korodny commented 6 years ago

I'm in contact with the author of the hacked version, he's going to provide the tracks himself. The sources for his track editor won't be released though (was written in Delphi anyway...).

Unfortunately, the 2004 announcement of the hacked version makes me think it won't be as easy as just adding the tracks to the remake ("Track parameters changed", "AI speed adjusted/changed"), I'll ask AmiGer about that.

ptitSeb commented 6 years ago

Sounds good. We will see how difficult is it to integrate.

ptitSeb commented 6 years ago

So @Korodny , any news on the TNT tracks data?

Korodny commented 6 years ago

Sorry, been away on holidays. Andreas (the author) wanted to get back to me once he located the tracks and whatever other info he had. He hasn't so far.

I'll ask him for updates one of these days, going to check the updated Amiga version with his tracks first.

ptitSeb commented 6 years ago

Great, thanks for the update.

@Korodny: any news on the TNT tracks data?

Korodny commented 1 year ago

Unfortunately not. The author of the hack did respond to my initial inquiry, but didn't report back with more details. He hasn't visited the forum I used to sent him a private message since 2020.

I'll try again, but this seems pretty hopeless.
