C1toDS & C2toDS

I know that as a whole they don't work together, but would it be possible to get just some of the agents from C1toDS working and have a C2toDS world? I don't really need the metaroom but there's some agents in C1toDS that I'd really like to keep.

I can use most of the agents without injecting the actual metaroom, but the refrigerator won't work. Here's the message I get:

Runtime error in agent 2 23 32303 script 2 23 32303 1004 unique id 6989
Tried to set BHVR 48 when the agent doesn't have one of the appropriate scripts
... c 100 aero 0 accg 0 {@}bhvr 48 perm 60 emit 8 0.5 mvs ...

EDIT: I tried a brutal ignore and now I have no fridge but a floating jar of honey. Interesting.

That reminds me that I can't use the hives without the metaroom either.

Someone should do just an object pack conversion for C1 and C2 to C3/DS. Just the food, toys, and dispensers.

I have actually injected C2TODS into a world started with C12DS because I forgot that C12DS was there.
It worked fine!

Really? Weird, it gives me an error.

You MAY get lucky if you install C1toDS AFTER C2toDS, but even that doesn’t work all the time.


So sometimes installing both metarooms works, but more often than not it doesn't. I guess you got lucky, Wingheart!

I tried it and it... semi-worked. A lot of stuff is missing and some things are floating. And I still can't get the fridge to inject.

It's weird because the fridge looks like it's meant to be able to be injected without the installation of the metaroom (like the lemon trellis for instance) but I just can't get it to.

Getting both to install is not too hard if you know the order, but if you go with both full metarooms, it's going to be VERY laggy once you add creatures to the rooms. In my experience the lag gets so bad that it can be almost unplayable.

The best way I've found for getting both rooms injected is to only install part of C2toDS, the first two parts, then install C1toDS, then finish installing the rest of C2toDS, or how ever much of it that you want anyway.

I'd like to use the C2toDS metaroom but I only want the toys/food/vendors from the C1toDS.

I'll give this a try, thanks!

Edit: Unfortunately that isn't working for me either. I can get some of the C1toDS world to inject but there's tons of stuff missing from it and what is there is in weird places.

Is there really no way to just extract the agents I want from the C1toDS metaroom?

Unless you're capable of editing the CAOS scripts to make them standalone, I'm afraid not. The reason the fridge and some other agents give you errors is because the scripts they run on have dependencies on scripts from the metaroom itself.

I have zero idea of how to do that unfortunately. Though, I'm surprised no one with the know how has made item packs from C1toDS and C2toDS for those who just want the items and not the metaroom.

Ah well, maybe I'll look into learning CAOS at some point. I don't really have high hopes of understanding it. :P
