Hi,

is it allowed to modify the world map or the sector maps?

Reason for sector maps:
The navray is not good enough, because it leads to empty spaces, cellars or simply walls while looking for a GR. After all the years, I'm still bad at running through the city. It's just like a maze for me.

Reason for world map:
I don't want to alt-tab to the tech haven maps for looking up "dungeons" and verhicle depots. I'm still afraid that the game would crash. And no, I can't manage to remember all the locations.

At the time of writing, only modifications to the RPOS are permitted.

Do you still experience crashes when alt-tabbing? Many common causes of this (especially in the Wastelands) were fixed soon after the Neocron Support Team took over Neocron's development. If you can reproduce alt-tab crashing at will, I would recommend posting a Bug Report in the relevant forum so we can take a look.

No crashes if you tab out (my experience is, that this is not happen anymore).

But I don't know if it is allowed. :(

€: But I would love another map (with VHC Depots Signs etc.) - Make it happen, Triv ;p

So, yes?

No (http://forum.neocron-game.com/showthread.php?136215-Clearance-of-Neocron-2-R-P-O-S-(H-U-D-)-modifications-PLEASE-READ-CAREFULLY!) (also crosshairs (http://forum.neocron-game.com/showthread.php?150489-RPOS-Modifications-regarding-crosshairs) now).

No (http://forum.neocron-game.com/showthread.php?136215-Clearance-of-Neocron-2-R-P-O-S-(H-U-D-)-modifications-PLEASE-READ-CAREFULLY!) (also crosshairs (http://forum.neocron-game.com/showthread.php?150489-RPOS-Modifications-regarding-crosshairs) now).

When did this change?


The use of modified world maps is being tolerated and will not be punished as breach of our terms of service. This only relates to the worldmap and the authorised modification of R.P.O.S. files. The modification of other client files is still prohibited and will be punished accordingly.

Touché. ;)

RPOS Files: Yes (http://forum.neocron-game.com/showthread.php?136215-Clearance-of-Neocron-2-R-P-O-S-(H-U-D-)-modifications-PLEASE-READ-CAREFULLY!).
Crosshairs: Yes (http://forum.neocron-game.com/showthread.php?150489-RPOS-Modifications-regarding-crosshairs).
World Map: Yes (http://forum.neocron-game.com/showthread.php?136656-Alternate-Maps&p=2036196&viewfull=1#post2036196).
Sector Maps: No (based on the clause 'Any further modification of Neocron 2 client files is still strictly forbidden and will be punished respectively within the scope of our terms of service').

An aim of our new website (Soon™), will be to centralise all of this information into one resource. As can clearly be seen various information is widely distributed. Apologies for any confusion caused.

Thank you very much.

I hope navray will be fixed (soon). Maybe the navray is as confused by the layout of the city sectors as I am :-)

There are a few navray and mini-map bugs in Neocron. If you do find any, please post a bug report in the bug report forums (http://forum.neocron-game.com/forumdisplay.php?233-Bug-Reports).

I forgot something, sorry. It's not about maps: RPOS_RUNNING.WAV (http://forum.neocron-game.com/showthread.php?71906-RPOS-hummmmmmm&highlight=rpos_running)
Is this a special case and okay to replace it with silence?

I just found out that "advanced search" defaults to multiple content and not single content. And I thought it was not possible to search only the bug report forum or the brainport forum :lol:

That was in the Neocron 1 days, modification of that file in your Neocron 2 client is not permitted as per the below clause as previously linked above.

Any further modification of Neocron 2 client files is still strictly forbidden and will be punished respectively within the scope of our terms of service.

Maybe an option could be added to disable the humming sound in the game, if the implementation only requires minimal effort.
