Ballistic Addon Studios Update Thread

[KyleSarnik]

The installer (I think) doesnt replace the .pbos, but I think it just edits the config and files inside of it. And yes I did go looking through the files (I always do) so don't ask why...

[DeadMeatXM2]

The installer actually "just" uncompresses the pbo, replaces files within them, and then re-compresses them.

If you open the installer with winrar or powerarchiver, you will find all the files that need to be replaced (in the folders, which represent which pbo they should go into)

This way, if the installer fails, then you can update the island "manually" although this may take some time...

to make the installer work correctly you need to have enough free space on your HD. The uncompressed PBO's are large! I'm not sure how much is needed but try not to have less than 500mb (that should be enough)

is any1 using the 1.94 beta patch with the bas addons? and tonal?

[KyleSarnik]

[Cpt. FrostBite]

Probably to make sure the BAS add-ons still work with the 1.94 Beta Patch. Hey BAS if I saw correctly some time ago that you will be getting a new server? Do you know when that will be and when we will possibly get some new sneak peak pics on your upcoming projects? ;D

Always looking for that breaking news story  

[DeadMeatXM2]

We should be switching to the new server over the next 2 weeks (plaing it safe on ETAs)

once we're back online, there may, or may not be lots of interesting news items for you

You'll have to wait and see  ;D

[Iwesshome]

What  

We cant work out some arrangement, maybe slipping you an envelope full of hundreds to guarantee first dibs on that news... LOL  

[Cpt. FrostBite]

You'll have to wait and see

HA! just like in the old days when addon-makers were a respected group of talented people honored by the entire rest of the community.    You have my attention, though. You better come up with something good. But than agian, I have yet to see the day that you come up with something bad

Is the new server for your homepage, testing, or playing??

Homepage.

[Homefry31464]

Well, that makes sense.  I imagine you get a large amount of traffic there.  Well, by any means, take your time.  I can't wait for the new helo's and units.
