Yes! I'm glad you asked. FarCry 4 has a new extended arrays feature (I can't find it in the docs at the moment. Perhaps no one has written it in there?). The extended array feature added in 3.0 was kind of a hack and might possibly be deprecated at some point. The new way in FarCry 4 makes so much more sense and is far more usable and extendable. Check out this blog post I made a year ago that explains how to do it. I haven't actually used the feature since then (there was a bug back then I found where if you created a draft on the extended array and then approved it, it would get a new objectID instead of using the old one (or something like that. I'm sure it was fixed shortly after I reported it). http://www.jeffcoughlin.com/blog/index.cfm/2007/1/2/New-Extended-Arrays-in-FarCry-40 Regards, -- Jeff Coughlin Web Application Developer http://jeffcoughlin.com --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "farcry-dev" group.
