Post by: francot514 on March 15, 2015, 12:56 AM

Hi, i wan to ask you what happened with this program called fidler, seems it was very good becuase allowed some kind of advanced scheme customization for the game, up to add options like in mission ( the events)

Do you know how to use it with latest game version?? Or how to use that custom scheme files .fsc???

It was one of the greatest things ever when I was 14 years old.

But it didn't allow too much complexity. Project X allows much more.

What made Fiddler cool is that it had an interface that allowed any idiot to play with it (see 14 year old me).

You could change weapon properties, made them explode on contact, with a fuse, make them only explode vs certain terrain or worms, make them explode into clusters that could themselves be other weapons. It was pretty cool really.

It stopped working after a Team17 patch if I recall.

anything can be done in Project X including custom weapons with custom sprites and custom behaviours
you can code any kind of mision with custom behaviours

fiddler is just a weapon tweaker in comparison

Not sure is anything, but i have looked for those project x scripts and seems are c++ based, really complicated to understand and manage to allow do new stuff..

Any scripting tutorial for it?? or anyone has tried??
