Hi Tony,

 

for rewriting and expanding my Pason-battleset (for HUD 3) I use your tool H3dsdedit - great one!

 

I´ve got two questions related to that:

 

1. Is it possible to edit an existing dsd-file?

 

2. Is it possible to extract the text from a dsd-file an copy in (using H3dsdedit) into a new dsd-file?

Hi Ralf,

 

I assume that you're talking about the same DSD files used for Battlesets. We have a utility that allows you to create a DSD file. I'll see if I can get permission to post it here.

1. Not currently with H3dsdedit

2. Not easily but you could keep text files of the battleset description and paste them into H3dsdedit

 

Do you expect to be making new battleset files often that would maybe merit me looking at the editing capability?

Yes, this type of tool. But I have two of those: The old one (from AGSi I think) and Tony´s newer one. My problem isn´t to create dsd-files, but to edit existing dsd-files in order to update and expand battlesets.

 

At least to extract the text and import it in a new dsd-file.

 

Regards,

Ralf

thx for your answers.

 

As to 1: ok

As to 2: Yes, that is the way right now then: writing the text for a dsd-file and copy and paste the text (before converting it into dsd) into a separate file. Then copy and paste again into H3dsdedit.

 

No, it won´t happen so often since I´m always short on time and cannot write so many scens/battlesets. It´s an "nice to have" issue; don´t invest too much into it, Tony.

 

Regards,

Ralf
