Research the changes made in RSW version 2.4

Open rdw-software opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

Looks like there is in fact such a version. As discovered by the someone in the BrowEdit Discord, paramk appears to use 2.4 and is therefore incompatible. I expect the changes will be minor, but I haven't looked into it at all.

GRF Editor is able to render it, so clearly it's already been researched. Now if I only had the source code...

Edit: The above makes no sense... paramk.rsw is using version 2.2? (tra_fild.rsw uses 2.4 though)

As far as I can tell, the only change is the addition of four bytes after the "build number". The possible values appear to be 00 00 00 00 and 00 00 00 01, with only three maps using the former and (as of the time of writing) 51 using the latter.

What could it be?

Edit: One map that is currently using this version is nif_dun01.

The extra version mentioned above is a "release" (patch) number, and controls the presence of certain features. More details TBD.
