A few of question

Revolutionary · Posted: Sat Jun 20, 2009 8:23 pm Post subject: A few of question

Im making a mod using the ingame graphics (both ingame and unused) for me and my friends to play (we are going to each create our own fraction) but im a bit of a n00b so im going to use this topic to ask questions.

1 when making generals cameos is there any thing i should look out for or be carfull of?

2 are there any unused units/buildings i haved missed from the pic below excluding thoses that show up in world builder or are incompleat/unfinnished in some way?

3 how easy are some of the unfinished units/building to fix? eg the gla powerplant (great looking building only no skin) or the america jump jet plane [avstarlift_d]. (seen beta pics of it and it looks cool but there is no w3d file or no damaged graphics)

thanks in advance

PS: im happy to try and fix files and relise the fixes)

I have written a tutorial about camoes here:

Nothing to note really if you are just using ones that already exist. All you need to write the name of cameo where it asks you.

I haven't really played around with the hidden/disabled units, so you are on your own there. I guess the first step would be to add them so that a dozer can build them, and edit prerequisites accordingly, and then you'll have to hunt down any kinks that happen.

as for anything you have missed, the only one I can think of is that theres a destroyed mammoth tank model. There's also a bunch of 'soviet' buildings under civilian structures, so maybe you could edit those since some of them resemble military structures.

Oh yeah, there are UN stuff (humvee and foot soldier) and some partisians under civilian->infantry.

hmm, perhaps either the command button does not specify the correct unit (double check your spelling) or the unit's prerequisites are not met.

The soviet buildings are more of civilian buildings with some slight military visuals.
