2.0.6: -Pre computing lighting and lightmaps

Post by Swingarm »

I have noticed that the menu option for pre-computing the light and lightmap settings for a given mission in D2X-XL is not present in D2X-XL 2.

Can this option be added back soon or is it in another place? I was going to try to play Anthology yesterday and it was taking a long time to prepare the level so I ended up aborting the process. This would be good for large levels where the computation would take a long time too.
I'm so lost I don't even think a Guide-Bot would help me.

The option has been removed because precomputing level data has become a lot faster than before, and because it would have need to do a lot more than before, requiring a considerable addition of code. For huge levels you will still have to take a little break, I'm afraid.
