hey... uhm... there alot of awesome sounding extensions for what i guess is mmf1... (.cox files) but i cannot for the love of me get them to work in mmf2.
Have to get the MMF2 versions of the extensions. They're different things, if I'm not mistaken. There's no converter or something of the sort for it.

You have to put then in a folder called "mmf1" in the MMF2 extensions folder. Then you have to find an MMF2 equivalent and move the actions over to that object in the event editor. Then you delete all references to that object. If there isn't an MMF2 equivalent, then you can't use it.
uhm so am i right in the assumption that mmf1 is better? because i can only find the update packs for mmf2 and they dont include some of the cool looking other stuff
MMF1 (or rather 1.5) is a weaker, more unstable program than MMF2. As of yet, MMF1 still has more extensions though, since all of them haven't been ported to MMF2 yet.
You don't really need most of the extensions that have yet to be ported. Except maybe the Strategy object. Other than that, I find that most things are available with MMF2.
What extensions do you need, DakaSha?

Well there isnt really any specific one. i just was trying random extensions and they wouldnt work so i didnt bother to look for cool ones and get disappointed.

All the mainstream extensions have already been ported, its only odd trinkets that haven't gotten moved over. After all, who needs something like the global strings object in MMF2, besides for backwards compatibility with TGF games? If theres awesome sounding extensions for MMF1, they've probably been ported to MMF2 already. If they haven't, they probably weren't very 'awesome'. But people are still working on porting more and more extensions over, one at a time. If you have any suggestions for ones that should be remade for MMF2, we'd all like to hear
