Title: Making a Stand Alone
Post by: MetalDestroyer on November 27, 2009, 07:27:04 am

Hi guys,

I'm actually working with Reprobator for his mods End Project (http://www.moddb.com/games/the-end-project-enlight-the-galaxy). And actually, we prefer to make it a Stand Alone but we don't know which specific files from SCP or Freespace 2 we need to make one.

You need for sure whole interface. As far as I remember, debug builds can tell you, what is wrong or missing, in the error log. That might be helpful.

Well the idea of it being a stand alone or total conversion means you shouldn't need anything except the FS2_Open exes. 

That said there are a couple of files that might be hard to replace.  There is gamepalette1  or something like that that is needed by FRED.  There are a couple of others that I can't remember. 

Yes you will need almost all the interface and hud files but you make them and give them the same names.  There are other hard coded file references as well.

Ok, thanks. We have a lot to do thought.
