Hey all,

I'm back today with different modding question and I prefered to make one subject that several...don't know if this a good thing or not, lol.

1) What is the skeleton name of the clone troopers? I didn't find it! Only for battledroid or maganuard...
2) How can I choose (or replace the default) little era icon?
3) How to localize a new era-mod name?
4) I want to reduce the size of one stock effect. Is there a way to do it with some odf codes (Note that I never made my own effect... )

Thanks for all the help as usuall guys

This is a snip from addme.lua from a mod I never finished regarding how to change era icon;
If you're adding a new icon you'll have to include a custom shell.lvl for your mod and include new hud items in there, then load that custom shell.lvl also from addme.lua. If I can recall, era icons are just textures.
Regarding effect size, you can edit the effect files in a text editing program. There's can change many bits about effects that way without using particle editor. (if that's the program)

Code: Select all

AddNewGameModes( sp_missionselect_listbox_contents,
"cor1%s_%s", 
{
era_y = 1, 
era_z = 1,
mode_con_y = 1, 
mode_ctf_y = 1, 
mode_con_z = 1, 
mode_ctf_z = 1,
change = {
era_y = { name="Aggressive CW", icon2="rep_icon" },
era_z = { name="Aggressive GCW", icon2="all_icon" },
}
}
)

Perfect! Thanks

But what code should I use? Do you know wich one? Thanks

1) they use the default skeleton. you don't need to put something in the odf file. You'll only need this when you change the basepose skeleton for a custom unit.
