Description

The module PLREDIT is a collection of tools to view and manipulate information of your player file. You can do the following things:

  • (Descent 2 player files only:) View your lifetime-rankings offline. With even more information than the PAUSE key of D2/Multiplayer shows...
  • Edit your taunt macro messages offline. With color-support in D2.
  • Edit the Mission Protocol. Lets you start in any level of a mission you want when you select NEW GAME.

 

Screenshots

Here are some screenshots (click on the image to get a larger one):

The overview screen will show you all players of the current selected Descent version (select with Descent Version Manager) incl. life-time rankings. If you click on one you will get some more details on the life-time rankings, like when you will be promoted next time etc.
The messages screen will show you a WYSIWYG "in-game" screenshot of the current selected message and of course lets you edit it. Colored support is planned, but not yet included.
The editor for messages... Shows you also how many characters are left (quite useful)...
Here you see the Mission Protocol of the current player. The Mission Protocol tells Descent, which levels you can select when starting a mission with "NEW GAME". E.g. if you made it through the first three levels of Descent 2: Counterstrike, you can later start at any level from 1-3...
... This information can be easily edited by the Mission Protocol Editor in the PLREDIT module for every mission...
