How to use the hexagon level with the new anniversary edition ?

First I want to say that I joined recently ... I'm a big fan of Oni and I never though there would be such a site and such an effort to keep Oni alive ! so finding this site is honestly like a dream come true !

I also know nothing about scripting and plugins and all that  tongue though i tried years before to edit using notepad the level files in the game data folder and had some success .. so, i've just installed the Anniversary Edition and It works perfectly big_smile love it ... I also read the modifications diary and I liked the idea of the hexagon level ... it says it needs the latest AE installed and that i just have to copy the raw & dat files to the game data folder and load level 6 (which is TCTF HQ) and type winlevel to go to the hexagon ... well it's not working when i do that I just go to the level 7 atmospheric processor exterior ... how can I make it work ?

if some once could tell me with more details where to put the files there are raw and dat which i put in the AE gamedata folder but there's also a hexagon folder in the zip .. where do i put that ? IGDM ?

all the other mods are working btw ... and can't someone make it a package big_smile ?

I catch up quickly  big_smile  tongue
I hope I posted this in the right place  neutral

Actually, as far as I know the AE is not needed for Hexagon, I wonder why it says that (I removed that text, but someone let me know if I'm wrong).

Anyway, you actually want to load Chapter 5, not Chapter 6.  love_Oni made a typo which I've now corrected (surprised no one noticed before).  He confused the number of the Chapter (5) with the number on the level data for that mission (level6_Final) and wrote Chapter 6 by mistake.

By the way, welcome.  smile   There's more cool stuff in the works, so stay tuned.

Psshh, that was nothing, some of my replies are within one minute of the question smile

how do i win the hexagon, or is it just like a training mode ?

OTA never ends smile  It's like that for all levels it was written for.

the characters seem to freeze sometimes ... is there a fix for that  ?

The one major limitation on importing new levels is that there are no pathfinding grids being generated.  Without them, the AI doesn't really know how to get around, hence they often just stand there.  Some day we hope to have that problem solved.

Well, it's up to Neo to add the grids, since OniSplit is his project.  I don't ask him things like "Are you working on x?" or "When are you going to finish x?", but I have indicated to him recently that this is still something we would love to see finished. Pathfinding grids for games used to be generated by hand, so making a tool do it automatically is probably rather difficult.

Oh, heh, I missed the usual opportunity to remind people that Take Two has the rights.  Yeah.  Of course, Bungie *could* buy back the IP... but somehow I don't think they will.
