Many models of units were made but not implemented. That means that they are out there (check Textures.meg files), lacking ofcourse an icon and some configuration. They can be added though; for example, Moldy Crowd is already included in a mod. Stay...  [Read More]

Shine, as said in my first post, the <Targeting_Max_Attack_Distance>150.0</Targeting_Max_Attack_Distance> do work. I had to tweak this value in the EAW: Knifedge mod we're working and it does exactly to change the max distance (range if y...  [Read More]

1. All Weapons are available at all times with target filters... meaning that (hopefully) you simply cannot shoot fighters with the main cannons. Having both weapons always active would be quite deadly for everything though. What do you think? The be...  [Read More]

This mod allows you to change the Pitch Angle (tilt) in the 'verticle plane' and lets you pull out further to get a decent viewing angle and distance to see your units and stuff in a land battle. This what i reported to every single "complaint&q...  [Read More]

For efficiency, the camera parameters should be carefully chosen to minimize the number of objects that must be drawn. The camera should not show the horizon and should not be pulled back too far or have too wide a field of view. Directly from the x...  [Read More]

Good work Lion. Just for history (this mini-tutorial is 100% perfect afterall) new modders may use more advanced XML editting programs. Of course advanced doesn't mean complicated too. I use Microsoft Visual Web Developer (http://msdn.microsoft.com/...  [Read More]

Yes, the TIE MAuler will retain its ability to run over infantry, yet we're figure out how this cannot be exploited by the AI (reduce its speed for example). And true, it's auto-destruction is not that major with 1.02. Thanx for info ;) The 13 point...  [Read More]

The 1 and 2 refer to balance issues, since infantry is eradicated by TIE Maulers mainly when AI is the empire. The 3 won't reduce the damage greatly (it's bombing after all!), but so as not to look like a nuclear bombing run. The 10 refers to infantr...  [Read More]

The first number (out of, say 2.1) signifies how many satellite speakers you have. If you have a simple left and right, you have a 2 sound system. If you have a woofer, that's the .1 Omg! I learned the whole coding around the speekers/woofers within...  [Read More]
