so we just are using SWF format to house assets and the mods are written in like LUA or whatever? that makes sense. i guess i just wondered. heh. (assuming youre being sarcastic can i ask, is there any modding forums URL that i can lurk on and see how to get involved? also seeing how aslain puts that 'Aslains_Custom_mods' folder for bootstrapping, i want to break stuff!!

so yeah, actually what blue is suggesting, ive done and it worked for most mods (stay away from all camera mods, especially if youre not a poweruser in mac and dont have firm control of the retina-bullshit and the way they shift DPI without really calling it that. it can bork you, but otherwise, what i do is boot into my windows bootcamp (on a second partition which everyone should be doing, that just goes without saying, at least with a pirated windows build for whenever u need it like this) and then run the installer, and then just bring over the files (aslains folder naming conventions is cleanly abstracted and named) to your mac's wine folder where the game is. in case you havent noticed yet, all mac games are actually running a PC game inside a wrapper, so if you dig until you find it, theres literally a folder named C\Program Files\Gaijen\WorldOfWhatever and its in your library or somewhere, but its a direct file structure of pc files on your mac. you can usually move mods in without too much issue.

wait, can i ask a ridiculous question? are you telling me that youre doing these mods, even stuff like this chat mod, using Actionscript in Flash??? because, heh. this is funy, but im actually a very highly experienced expert in that language! i was one of the foremost actionscript developers in the california area, back when it was a thing for over a decade! im like a god with that language (i do javascript now for a living, and would probably need to brush-up, but... the things ive created in that language... it does make you feel like a god...heh) am i able to get involved then in the mod-creation or conversion effort?? are you guys telling me that youre literally decompiling swf files? omg, i think i love this game now more than ever before and i fucking love this game , and have spent hundreds of dollars on ships and shit. omg omg. how can i get started? is there a good entrypoint or any FLA/.as files available online to review about this??

its a great mod. thanks for the recolor. is it making approximations? like does it have the lag of needing to to register and calculate position client-side for the color-change result? i have and use this mod, but its hard to tell and time off of. thanks in advance for any info

immersion! :P thanks, i also needed verification that it wasnt my issue clientside.

since the 5.5 reformat, the Advanced Chat has been greyed-out in setup and unselectable. whats the status with this mod? (devs point to a russian-only forum for questions) or is this maybe just on my client that i have this issue? thanks --

moved to correct forum. sorry
