I saw that post earlier, but my response would have been Nfs/Alenth-eque noob bashing at it's finest.

If the mods are made by pro's (and not buggy like mine) Then you wouldn't've needed to do that much. Say that you download a .zip file called zapper.zip. In the archive there's (hopefully) a folder called zapper.rte. Simply extract this in you Main CC folder, not in the base.rte or devices.ini or something like that. Good mods work the same way as the base.rte, but with another name, so there's nothing else you need to do.

Sorry for Double Post, but if I don't make a new post now it'll take ages before anyone notices.

A short, but maybe not too simple question, is there a way to put the jetpack or any other activateable AEmitter on the AHuman's head (attachable) or in any other way make ot moveable without having the guy to fall over? I tried to simply make the guy's head into a direct Emitter, but by some unnkown reason the game wouldn't allow me to...

I can make all kinds of PDF files and make them nice and pretty if you guys want a PDF FAQ database. I'm pretty handy with Acrobat pro -- handy to the point of being able to teach other people how to use it!! I could make a PDF copy of the FAQ threads and have one massive file done in about a minute, no problem...but it might come out looking bizzare and broken. These forums have a lot of design elements and Acrobat tends to choke on those when you make it quick-convert.
I kind of wanted to make a mod request though, and if I could get a confirmation on that I would be willing to make a really nice version with search capabilities and clickable table of contents and lots of other stuff I wouldn't normally do for nothing.

All I want is a set of actors from Advance Wars and a custom map or two! Not much!! I'd learn how myself but I couldn't find any mapping/skinning FAQs and all those variables on guns and stuff look like it could take a while to learn...I won't have a while to learn it for another month or two

Let the bartering begin.


P.S. Dude, maps kinda take a while, usually. (At least with this current build!!)
P.S.S. Advance Wars was a wicked sweet game.

I figured maps take a while so that's understandable. AW actors are first priority

Moving to Mod Making (God I don't look forward to cleaning up that forum).

Oh wow. That didn't work quite as I wanted, but hell, what did I expect?

Right now, though, I am deliberating between reversing the damage or mass deletion of almost all of the posts in this thread.

Opinions?

New haircut! 8 pages to 2.
Strangely enough, I can't delete things here, but I tried to use the split topic tool to put tem somewhere I could, and they just fell into the abyss it seems.

How to make the brain regenerate? I want to have a brain that would need some serious firepower to break.

I'm pretty sure the magic word is negative EmissionDamage, but i don't see how to make it happen.

I'm - of course - terribly sorry if this has been posted before.

Find the brains entry and exit wounds (Sould be Leaking Brain Pod in Effects.ini) at the bottom of the code, you will have the EmmisionDamage and BurstDamage variables, change them something negative, and change the brains gib limit to something like 100k

ok im new so i don't know alot but the other posts are helpful and thank you, but i have one question when you create the .ini how do you link the sprites to it?

I would ask you to phrase that better.

Damnit!

Ok, I made a sprayer, but can't get it to STICK to the ceiling and walls...
Or get it to freeze in air like the heavy concrete gun...

Please tell me how.

i dnt think u can meke sticky stuff

or you could just set GetsHitByMOS = 0

=)

ANYWAY Here is the most of the rest of the objects:

Device

JointOffset = Vector //Where the gun is held
SharpStanceOffset = Vector //Where it is held while aiming
EjectionOffset = Vector //Where the magazine ejects from

Bullet

Separation = 5 //How accurate/inacurate the bullet is
