Re: More screens

[Mr.Caine]

How do you get xtra planets to work in the campain? I used the galaxy mod and i got double planets on top of each other for some strange reason.

 

How do I get turbo lasers to attack air craft?

[Saron2of4]

Let us know when you'll release this.Looks interesting.

[Mith_rawn_undo]

Nice mod, just one question though.

 

Do your fighters actually dogfight? And really fly around like they do in Space or do they just  hover around like snowspeeders? I got fighters to work, it just doesn't look that cool, when for example an X-Wing fires his lasers while flying straight forward, and the lasers magically fly towards the ground (building,fighter) in a steep angle.

It would be cool if they would actually make an attack run.

So did you manage to do this? On one of your screens it looks like that, could be only by chance though. I would be veerry please if you could tell me how to do that, if you know.

[Obi-Wan Kenobi]

How about changing the fires_forward line of spaceunitsfighter.xml to yes, or changing the turret rotate degrees line to 0.

[Obi-Wan Kenobi]

I've just done it, and it works for me. Hope it helps. ;D

[Mith_rawn_undo]

You did change only those two Values and it works?

They still fly around stupidly if I do that. Did you change the Fighter_Locomotor to Flying_Locomotor?

I tried adding the x-wing to the ground, but it didn't worked, I used an Speeder variant, like this:

Well you should atleast change the Model in

 

[Mr.Caine]

You forgot to put in the groundcompaines for the rebels. I'll gotta release a beta soon but i gotta work out this lag issue 1st. The fighters act like speeders still and dont engage each other. I did add the fighter locomotovie but the fighters went through the ground and crashed into each other and died. Funny moment. It just looks weird, but they'll move fast like in space.

Firesparys are avaliable at Tech Level 3. They are excellent anti fighter and carry protons. Id give it a discount if you controlled Kuat since its there design but i dont know how to do that. Anyone know?

All ranges have been increased, battles are more intense.

T4B Heavy Tank, Rapid fire and strong shields. Tears up the battle field.

 

http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a105/333Super/ATSTS.jpg

New ATSTs with concussion missles and chain guns. Infanty is nothing. Like i said before ATSTs turn around slow. The best thing to do is distract it with a light tank. (Its shields can take punishement but not long) and hit it with some PLEX troops from the rear.

I've managed to make the x wing a ground fighter, but when I come to deploy it or bring it down from space, there is no model! What have I done wrong? I've given it a ground model name and everything!

[Saron2of4]

Mr.Caine I hope you release that soon ;D .

[Mr.Caine]

That depends i have to ask a lot of people if i'm allowed to use there work even thought i take no credit. I dont wanna get sued over something as dumb this so I just have to wait and see.

[Saron2of4]

If not help me get things to be like that size wise too. I like how you made those Storm Troopers etc look way smaller than the AT_AT etc..

[Mith_rawn_undo]

You've asked about adding price reduction to firesprays:

Its quite easy.

Take a look at the planets.xml

there should you find sth like this:

Star_Destroyer

0.20

9

Yes

 

Essentially you just change the applicable Unit_Types, you can simply add you name for the firespray in there.

[Mr.Caine]

Ok thanks man, can I add or do I have to replace?

[DragonShadow]

Well, you can't get sued since it's not copyrighted material, but it is polite to at least ask. And if they don't respond (I've had that problem), well you tried...

[fortune faded13]

wowsers. looks pretty amazing i saw that someone posted the link to the Pirates at War mod from filefront. that would be sweet if you had capital ships in land battles.  too bad your mod doesnt work for me 

[Mr.Caine]

Stripped down version of my mod still the same non the less. I need beta testers and so far you guys look enthusatic... So download away and tell me what needs changing and modifying. Sorry if the downloading is a little long its the mp3s

Yeah, those'll do it. The mod I'm working on has 134 mb of music from other Star Wars games added in. I wonder how much rar-ing it will shave off? Not much, I'm pretty sure...

[Mandalore]

Sweet, thanks Mr. Caine.  I have been waiting for this mod. Great Job.

[Mr.Caine]

How can i make infantry fire at further targets? I changed the target attack range but it doesnt work for infantry it only works of other units.

[Mr.Caine]

I added a wookiee warrior as an infiltrator.

 

and... more screens.

Hmm I've found a few things that need a change for the two new troops at the end for the Empire they are missing text entry completly. Also what's up with the Vader looking TIES? Also where is the buildable POD walkers I think that would be a great addition. Also somebody made another mod that allowed TIES as well as V-Wings buildable but they where made avaliable on the second roll next to the Space Station Upgrade/Sensor Array  row(where you put the FireSpray).That would allow you to still build some of the ships you'd like ie Venators because after a Space Station 3 you can't build. Anyway also Pirates. Think about adding them on some more planets. If you like I'll do that up real quick and let you know. Did you mean for the Empire to have the Rebel Marauder Missle Ship?

[FormulaRedline]

There are too many TIE's on the Imperial Build Tab...TIE Fighters and TIE Bombers show up twice.  And yeah...there is the whole Vader TIEs thing.  I haven't used it yet, is it a squad of TIE Advanced?  If so, I think there might actually be an icon for this.  And the description should be changed to actually reflect whatever it is.

 

The scaling is pretty neat, I like AT-ATs towering over everything.  In space though, did you just make up the scaling or going by "real" numbers?  The ISDs just seem HUGE compared to the VSDs.  Also, I might suggest scaling everything down a bit (I know...big job) so your forces don't start across the whole map.

[swgbex]

How can i make infantry fire at further targets? I changed the target attack range but it doesnt work for infantry it only works of other units.

 

anyone know. im also tryin.. but not workin :/

im thinking maybe its got to do with the fact that its in a squad.. i havnt seen a mod that actually got troops to fire farther.. i tried copying the rebel plex trooper code and just changin a bit.. but it still fires at the same range.. as most other troopers.. maybe a bit more .
