Request for info on new resource type: LRLE 0x2BC04EDF

Has this ever been delivered? I think the LRLE format template is now needed more than ever.

Nothing so far. It's really needed as more textures are converted. I've made some progress but am stumped on what I think are long repeat counts of transparent pixels. Plus, just to made it more fun, there's a new version that's substantially different from the first.

If anyone out there has any knowledge or insights, help would be welcome.

I'd just like to second/third/etc. this request, on behalf of all of us folks who can't use the technical data ourselves, but are eagerly waiting for those who can to get it and and turn it into tools we can use. I have more than one planned project that would work much better if I were able to create true LRLE texture resources.

I'd just like to bump this request, on behalf of all of the fabulous folks who can't use the technical data themselves, but are eagerly waiting for those who can to get it and and turn it into tools we can use. Please give them access to the resources they need in order to complete their pieces of work.

Also wanting to bump this, pretty please, give them access to the resources, so maybe people who play with lower specs on their computers also get a chance to enjoy some of these people's amazing hard work, and making the work maybe a bit easier for dem overall

Adding my voice in supporting this request.

Adding my voice in supporting this request x2. I also think that the wicked should continue with its configurations for low-resource pc since not everyone has a good pc and they like to use your mod

Hi, I really liked your mod but since the new December 11th update, I had to remove it bc my computer won’t allow me to run with uncompressed sims without lag. ? it was horrible so I had to download wonderful whims instead, but I had no problems with the old version of WW, everything worked fine so I wish it came back only bc the new requirement won’t allow me to use the mod. My laptop isn’t a big gaming laptop unfortunately.

Adding my support to this thread as well. WickedWhims makes my game sooo much more entertaining and it's a shame that I have to turn on such high quality graphics to use it. My game will not run with these settings -- it won't even boot up! Makes me not want to play the game much anymore, unfortunately.

This thread has nothing to do with Turbodriver's mods (especially the ones that shouldn't even be discussed on this forum) or with running the game on lower graphics settings.

It is a request for EA to share the technical details of a game asset, so that creators can access new textures, and new versions of textures, that only exist, or are higher quality than the previous versions, in this format which we currently cannot decode, and which is being used more and more in the game since it was introduced.

(We're also lacking a lot of other technical information we used to get -- no TDESCs for 1.69, no new CASPart version info, etc. -- but for the most part those things are not directly preventing people from being able to access and modify large chunks of game content.)

If you want to talk to a modder about their mods, do it through whatever methods they provide for support (I can think of at least three just off the top of my head for Turbodriver) instead of highjacking threads.
