Custom Object Manager 0.73

Status: Documented, but the cited CustomObjectManager0_73.zip was not found in the preserved download tree.
Game: Motocross Madness 2
Purpose: Organize how custom objects appear in Armadillo and Dillo Too selection menus.

Requirements and recovered features

  • Requires the Java Runtime Environment used by the period release.
  • Creates/deletes object groups and assigns custom objects to them.
  • Version 0.73 added multiple-object addition, multiple-object deletion, and group deletion.
  • It manages catalog/menu organization; it does not convert geometry or package the object's texture resources.

The first beta had reports of incorrectly displayed _art.tga previews. If that occurs, verify the documented 133×103 TGA dimensions and compare color depth/palette against a preview that Armadillo displays correctly.

Back up UserModels and any catalog/configuration files before reorganizing them.
