Title: Dark Omen Modding Noob Needs Help
Post by: NuttyMonk on March 25, 2012, 03:56:32 PM
Hi all,

i'm in chapter 3 of Dark Omen just now but after coming across this site i'd like to mod my current version (the original one) so that i can get better graphics and sound.

Can anyone give me an idea of how to do that?  Currently i don't have the option (i think) to use 3D graphics in the settings.

What kind of patches do i need to install to uprate all of the graphics and sounds to the best you have to offer and increase the resolution to a more contemporary size (i.e. not 640 x 480)?

Links to specific posts on the forum would probably be enough with a short description of why i need them.

Also, i don't want to screw up my current campaign as it's going really well so any advice on that would be great.

Cheers

NM

Hello, the 3D-System of Dark Omen is broken on all newer systems so there is also no known way to enable it without graphical glitches.
(@olly I know that you can remove the flicker by using a 100hz monitor, but under Win7 besides the flicker there are also lots of random black spots / graphic errors on the map).

There is also no reliable to increase the resolution to more then 640x480. We also don't have any highres texture packs, sorry. :(

So you must life with the nostalgic graphics

Maybe it's possible to make your own texture pack?

So, would i be right in saying that all of the mods here are for new armies/units/items and they can also include new single person campaigns and new maps for multiplayer battles?

Cheers
