Event collaboration

[xXEm41lXx]

I wonder how to collaborate with another person in eventing. There's any possibility to do that? Tell me about any possibilities if anyone exists.

I suppose you could have someone do a first draft of the event and then send the game to the other person to make edits, revisions or to finish it up.

Or if you guys live in close proximity to each other, just meet up at someone's house.

I don't believe there's a method to do cloud eventing. That is, where you have the project open on your computer and the collaborator on his computer and you can edit the game together at the same time.

Yeah I think you pretty much have to send someone a game for collabs.

do not use any cloudservice directly on the project. The RM-editors open the project file like a database (similiar to MS Access or Filemaker), and that conflicts with cloudsyncing to the point of a chance of destroying the data. you can use cloud for manual distribution, but never place the working project folder itself into the cloud.

That said, you can work on different maps at the same time and then combine them into a single project. Just make sure that all team members only work on their own maps before copying the mapfiles together. and you need to create the maps in the master-copy before distributing the files, the editor will not accept mapfiles above the map number it has created for the current project.

I often use the PM system now to have a small amount of folks to tell me if I am on spot or not with some of my work.
