side and lua questions

Commander_Fett · Post by **Commander_Fett** » Sat Nov 15, 2008 2:44 pm

I'm making a new side with the clone commander, but whenever I play, his cape isn't there. I do not know why, because I reference the right tga name in the trooper's msh file and the right cape odf file in my trooper's odf. Any suggestions?

Also, is it possible to turn hero assault into conquest?

To answer the second question, it really depends on how good you are with lua. I'll tell you now it's not exactly easy, unless you're comfortable with coding.

Hero Assault into Conquest? If you just want heroes playing Conquest, do a standard Conquest and just change the team's units.

I mean hero assault into conquest, not conquest into hero assault. I want to make hero assault into another era conquest. Could I mess around with hero assault lua and give it conquest rules?Ummm... can anyone help me fix the cape? I have:
the troop odf references the cape odf
the troop msh references the cape tga
the cape odf references the troop msh
If I am missing something, can someone please help?

Your answer

As for the Clone Commander, you are using Repsharpshooter's, right? If you have all the necessary files in your side's msh folder, then the cape should show up. In what ways did you modify these files? Also post all your .odf files referring to this model. Your descriptions are too vague.

I'm using the stock officer, just part of my own side.
My trooper's odf:(gal_inf_ep3_officer)

Code: Select all

ClassParent         	= "rep_inf_default_officer"

[Properties]
GeometryName            = "gal_inf_clonecommander"
GeometryLowRes        = "gal_inf_clonecommander_low1"
FirstPerson             = "REP\repcomm;rep_1st_clonecommander"
ClothODF                = "gal_inf_clonecommander_cape"

My "gal_inf_clonecommander_cape":

Code: Select all

[GameObjectClass]       
ClassLabel          = "cloth"

[Properties]
attachedmesh	= "gal_inf_clonecommander"

I renamed the tga of the cape to gal_inf_clonecommander_cape, and replaced the "rep" in front of "rep_inf_clonecommander_cape.tga" an "rep_inf_clonecommander.tga" in the "gal_inf_clonecommander.msh" with "gal". My troopers still work, but the capes won't show up. And RepSharpshooter made a commander?

EDIT: oh, and for the hero assault to conquest, you're just saying I should just copy the lua text from conquest and paste it over the text currently in my MABg_eli?

That's the kind of information you should've included in your original post, much better.

It looks like you renamed the cloth ODF, unlike other ODFs you can't just rename a cloth ODF to whatever you want, the name of the cloth ODF must be the same name as the cloth object in the unit's msh hierarchy for which you are defining properties for.

Post by **AQT** » Sat Nov 15, 2008 6:30 pm

As for the Hero Assault, do what you said and in addition change the teams' units.

Commander_Fett · Post by **Commander_Fett** » Sat Nov 15, 2008 6:58 pm

OK, I'll try that out.
EDIT 2: nevermind,I fixed the cape, but my hero won't show up in game. When I play, he won't show up as a selectable character. Here's his odf:

Hidden/Spoiler:

[code][GameObjectClass]

ClassParent         = "com_hero_default"

ClothOdf            ="rep_inf_ep3heavytrooper_cape"

//FirstPerson         = "REP\reparc;rep_1st_arctrooper"

FirstPerson         = "REP\reptroop;rep_1st_trooper"

WeaponAmmo         	= 3

WEAPONSECTION 		= 5

WeaponName         	= "rep_weap_award_pistol"

WeaponAmmo         	= 6

WEAPONSECTION 		= 6

WeaponName         	= "rep_weap_award_rocket_launcher"

WeaponAmmo         	= 4

VOUnitType        	= 121

[/code]

and I set up the mshs and tgas correctly, can someone help?
EDIT3: Sorry for this many questions in one post, but also, I followed mav's tut on how to add kotor to a map, but I keep getting this (when I try to add hunt too...) mungelog:
