Notes on features and problems from the development of D2X-XL, newest first.
New Camera Object
I have added cambot support to d2x-xl v1.5.34. The cambot is completely stationary and passive (no tracking). You can however chose to make it slowly turn and thus cover a bigger area. Place a cambot in the D2 folder or D2 data folder in a file named cambot.hxm (must be a regular hxm file containing the robot data incl. poly model etc.)
d2x-xl will take care of the cambot not overloading other bots, but being added as a new bot similar to vertigo bots.
dle-xp has been enhanced to support cambots (regard that a cambot is an extra type like player, powerup, etc. and not found in the robot list). After placing a cambot, don't forget to add a camera trigger to it.
