We're finally releasing the editing tools so the Zeno Clash community can develop their own levels and modifications for the game. We've created a Wiki entry with documentation so users can browse through the main changes and enhancements we've added to the Source Engine. The ACE Team wiki and SDK files are located at the following URL:

http://wiki.aceteam.cl

We invite users to contribute to the existing wiki information and experiment or develop custom content for the game. The official discussion area to ask about the tools or discuss about custom content will be the newly added 'editing' area in our forums.

We hope everyone enjoys this content release and we look forward to new developments by the Zeno Clash community.

Yay! Thanks!

EDIT: It won't work, it needs a certaiun .dll file :/

EDIT2: I worked it out

Been waiting for this! Thanks a bunch, really appreciated!
I just cant wait to play other peoples maps!

I'm planning a massive Corwid map btw. Look forward to that

How did you fix the .dll thing?

You are probably not editing the .cfg file of the installation info. Here's the info

I did that. I've done it three times and it still gives me an error.

Great, I'll see if I can make something cool with this

Fixed, I was looking in the wrong folder

Anyways. Anyone make a sky list for it yet? Like this: http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Sky_List

As a note: The SDK is still missing the 3D Studio Max exporter and info on how to create static props with lightmaps... a MAJOR reason why we could create extremely organic environments for the game (and not have to depend on brush construction).

We should be adding this soon...

Please, a sky list, my skyboxes appear as voids.

Okey, dokey... I'll ask Juan to document on the wiki.

Done! (Added the info to the wiki)

Can I say. would it be possible to have a program which we could use to convert from Zeno Clash engine, to Gmod?

How is that? A model converter that returns our mdl format to Half Life's mdl format? I don't think we'll be creating such a tool.

However, I do remeber someone was able to convert our model format before we released the GMod pack, so I'm sure it's possible.

I just want the Rubiks cube model and Rimat's and Metamoq's headwear and The Drunk's mug.

Can you add the brightness, ambiance, pitch, angle, ect. to each name?

Like what the sky looks like?

I might do this, assuming it's just the .vvd header that needs to be changed.

Go here: http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Sky_List

Under the picture they put all the info to put into the light_enviroment and that's what I need.

You want to know what the ideal values are for each?

Mmm... I'll try to see if Juan can document this next week.

If you do this, can you ACE make it a part of the SDK or something?

I've got a functioning program, which I still want to test a bit, but it's not 100% effective. Some models, such as assassin.mdl, assassin2.mdl and assassin_phase2.mdl will not load properly.
I think someone in the Facepunch thread said didn't work on character models, but I've got andro.mdl and a few others to work.

Hmmm.. does this mean you can make these?:

Oh, I guess they could do that.

After bothering to make an actual account instead of using a guest name, I came back here to thank you.

Thanks.

Edit:

As a side note, I'd like to know how you guys made that plant monster thingy in the sewers in one of the maps.

It's simply a model with several animations and triggers for effects. Nothing special. The last one has a trigger attached to the head so you can shoot it when it opens... but it's basically a lot of different models timed by a trigger.

And if you look at the model, it's just a big stick with a flytrap head

Can you release some information about it how the scriptable function works and such things, or do I have to wait for the release have you any idea how soon it will released? Im very eager...?
would be great to know if I need to use the SDK, or if the editor will work for me

The sdk has been released a while ago. If you know how to do stuff with the normal Half-Life 2 (or any other source game), you will manage it do to stuff for Zeno Clash too.
