2013-03-03 Brief Editor News

S’up dudes,

I’m back… I’ve come back from the future (and the past). Unfortunately, the time circuits were a month off on my return and a train destroyed my Delorean, oh well. In any case, time to get back to work. Forgotten World (which was…uh…will be awesome) isn’t going to make itself.

Speaking of making Forgotten World, more work has been done for our editor:  basic water viewing (just wow, what a huge difference visually) and rudimentary object placement. Although it is only rudimentary from an interface perspective, I can place any object I want, I just have to know its default flags/properties, model IDs and Type IDs (most of which I have listed in one file or another).  Baby steps… but this is a pretty significant baby-step.

Of course, this means I now have no excuse to delay fixing almost every bug I have noted.

Oh, and for those interested, the U9 transcript at the Codex Wiki I have been working on has been completed.  In other recent Wiki news, a lot of pages have been added about Ultima 6 Project including detailed maps, walkthroughs, and npcs.  The wiki contributors have really been accomplishing some amazing work the past few months.

It’s been real.
