After you read the units from the data files, use:
SetProperty("[unit class]", "[name of value being changed]", "[new value]")
( there may or may not be quotes around [new value] )

Do you put that under the classes? is that what changes the unit count?:?:

You can really put it almost anywhere, but I think its best right after the units are read in from the data file and before they are added to a side.

SetUnitCount([team], [unit count]) is what changes the unit count for a team. Or did you mean the amount of (the count) say snipers (the unit) on the battlefront.

General amounts of units on the battlefield, like the slider in the instant action menu for "units per team".

Sorry for the bump and double post, but I have a Question:

Here is my .sky file

PS2()
{
FogRange(0, 0);

FarSceneRange(5000.0, 5000.0);

FogRange(-100.0, 600.0);
}

}


DomeInfo()
{
Texture("TST_sky_dome.tga");
Angle(-90.000000);
Ambient(255.000000, 255.000000, 255.000000);
Filter(1);
Threshold(150);
Intensity(50);

Softness(1);
SoftnessParam(60);

DomeModel()
{
Geometry("TST_sky_dome.tga");
}


}
1). I want to change the fog to a more red color. Which values should I change? I know they stand for Red, Blue, Green, and Alpha, But I don't Know which one's which.:?

2). My Dome texture is gone in gameplay. it is there in ZE but it is black when I actually play the game. Is the dome section correct??

For the color, the standard order for values is red, green , blue, alpha, so it's a safe bet that that is the order of the values here.

Nothing there is a serious error, but did you place them in the <MODID>/msh folder? Because that's not where new side files would go.

I put it in the sides folder. However, there is a new problem. when I copied the ALL side from assets to my sides folder, for some reason ingame I lost the Marksman, Vanguard, and Wookie!!!!! so I changed the g_con.lua back to the shipped side, but the Vanguard is still missing!!!!!:cry: I am cleaning and re-munging now...

BAH!!!:evil: Still no vanguard!! WTF?


Never mind, I got the vanguard to work. but can anyone help me with the initial issue about the alliance? the info is in This Thread

Never Mind, I got that to work too (finally!!!!!) :D:D !!!!!

HOWEVER, I still need my water question answered (How to get it to glow). Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!
