With all these discoveries, I'm now wondering if there may be the possibility of porting some stuff over from DX2 into the TDS Engine...perhaps even some kind of DX2/TDS editor hybrid....or would I be jumping the gun there? lol

I posted a couple times you can load DX2 (at least the demo since I don't have the full game) gamesys packages into T3Ed. Just rename *.d2u to *.t3u then add the packages into default.ini. There will be conflicts but it works.

Oh, I know you can do that. I even half did that a couple of years ago but didn't get as far as you did. I meant if it would be usable ingame. From what you're saying, I'm guessing it is possible.

This'll contain some ideas of mine (and compaints). Here's today's:

2009/09/26 - I'm finding problems with with T3Ed:
* Unable to add links between actors that are generated through the command line to actors generated by the actor browser
[INDENT]Could be resolved by adding a subclass through the actor browser. Needs to be tested.[/INDENT]
* Crappy editor design by original coders
[INDENT]Triggerscript limitations: One object can't reference another object unless they are linked. See above problem.
[INDENT]-Could be resolved by using flags[/INDENT]
Terrible triggerscript tools: This goes for adding classes with the actor browser too . . . Names are automatically generated with alpha-numeric values! Organization of triggerscripts is buggy and unreliable.
[INDENT]-At least you can bypass the actor browser and declare your own names . . . [/INDENT]
Triggerscripts use properties in the archetypes if the values are declared as "inherited(SomeNumber)". If that number references a hard-coded value then I'll think the original coders are dunderheads.[/INDENT]
* A lot of the game's functionality is hard-coded. This poses a problem with:
[INDENT]-Crouching footsteps (or lack thereof) have been hard-coded out. Could that be overridden with unreal script now that we figured out that we can use it?
-See above problems with hard-coded values and properties[/INDENT]

After changing the DEFAULT.INI I can't see my new class, why?
I've done "CLASS NEW PARENT=Actor PACKAGE=MyT3gamesys NAME=MyT3" in the command line, and after which this is what I added:
GamesysPackage=MyT3gamesys
EnginePackages=MyT3gamesys
EditPackages=MyT3gamesys
Trying both with the suffix __t doesn't work.

Did you close t3ed after doing the command line?

Yes, I followed the tutorial in the same way.

I'm not sure if this does anything in default.ini:
Code:
[Developer]
IsProgrammer=True
But it might be essential for getting that to work.

Yes, already enabled.
Better pasting here the entire DEFAULT.INI, so you can take a look on it:

Try commenting the "Suppress" values. If that doesn't work then retry.
