[quote who="KRayner" reply="47" id="2393119"] Quoting Cranzy, reply 44 It is not available to all. you can goto the ready to play section on the impulse website .. you will need to register .. and if you are lucky .. you will get a key.. So no - not everybody will be able to get this - even if they wanted to ... Are you sure this applies if you go through the process as I have described through Impulse?[/quote] Did you also get 5 "extra" Beta

[quote who="KRayner" reply="36" id="2382546"]I'm not sure, it may as I think R2P launches Demigod automatically. Have you tried it out yet? Oh btw, I've sent you a friend request [/quote] It doesn't... All it does is allow people to find each other & organise games :)

How to convert GR2 files to Max? in Demigod Modding Demigod Forums

Hi folks :) I know that Scottie found a converter to change .gr2 files into .max files. The problem I've got is that the converter I found doesn't seem to be working :( Any chance of posting a link to where I can find the working converter? I'm running 3D Studio MAX with service pack 3... Thanks!

[quote who="oo7_warhammer" reply="21" id="2368136"] Interesting article on south africa internet. Considering Demigod already lags easily. 1 dont try more than 2v2 2 consider hiring pigeon to deliver the packets faster, may reduce lag[/quote] Had a good laugh at this one... Actually I think snail-mail is faster...

I ran the ping tests & just about the only people we'll be able to connect to (without making it a turn based game that is [e digicons];P[/e] ) are in the EU. Pings become ridiculous when I try the states & Oz... I think the biggest problem we have now is that most of the other South African players have given up on ever playing online :(

We'll have to find out what scale we must work to though, otherwise the conversion process will get complicated & tedious...

Reply to What sort of modding? in Demigod Demigod Forums

[quote who="Rocky_Tooth" reply="11" id="2318176"]However making the maps is the real tricky part. Creating the massive backdrops to the area's you can walk and simply the map itself.[/quote] Our BIG problem is actually that all the maps are created in Granny 3D & that costs about $10k :(

Frogboy: I'd kiss you but my wife would object! Stardock itself can start to create maps and demigods to release as well as let players create their own demigods if they want and in a pinch we can take care of the exporting for them So does this mean that if we "build" a new level in lets say 3D Max, we could post it off to you & you'd convert it to a Granny 3D file for us (assuming it's good enough, that is)?
