You can´t change the Enum value, they are hardcoded.
The enumerations are set in the sourcecode of the game.

If you are in Renx go to the upper right corner and press the hammer symbol, now click on 'W3D tools' in utilities, below the utilities are the W3D export settings.

I've just decided to call my mod The Golden Army. Unlike other mods that aims to "enchance gameplay, graphics, etc.." I intend to establish a story through the General's Challenge and the Campaign, of how China attempted to conquer the world through its Golden Army, and how the two factions, USA and GLA, cope up to stop it. (There should be ASEAN, Russia and ECA/NATO too, but well, I just found out I'm not great with modeling..) I just made my list of priorities of what to change, and since I'm just a highschool graduate with no actual experience in modding, it would be great if you help/teach me to:

- change the Challenge and Campaign UI.. Make the Challenge sort of a 1v1 against another General you choose to fight..
- a campaign for each new faction
- maps and AI
- improve graphics, like in Contra..
- make hero tanks and more balanced hero infantries..

That's all. I know it's impossible to do in 3 months (college starts in August) but, heck, let's just give it a shot. XD

I'll start making the AI. But there's a limit to the player list, so I can't put all of my faction AI in the SkirmishScripts.scb. What will I do? create a new script for my new factions or what? O-o

Guys I need help in getting all three upgrades of overlord to show up! I'm really stuck.

I tried putting all the models in one OCL, but only the last model is shown..
I tried removing the ConflictsWith.. still only one shows..

Any ideas besides joining their models altogether?

You can do this solely with code. No need to use a model editor.

Just create a unit with all three model codes.
If you need help, post in the forum. You'll get help a lot faster than if you send me a PM.

I reject all buddy requests. I don't think 'buddy' needs to be made official. It's not like you're marrying me.

Create a unit such as OverlordSpeakerGattlingBunkerTower by cloning the overlord gattling cannon. Copy ModuleTag_01 from the speaker tower, gattling and bunker addons and put them all into the code of the OverlordSpeakerGattlingBunkerTower. Then copy over the ability modules of the bunker and speaker tower.

Thus you have one addon that appears and acts as all three.

another question. I copy/pasted burton's stab animation and jarmen kell's snipe attack animation, it seems okay but when she stabs her laptop seems to fly around, and she does nothing when she snipes. is there anyway to hide her laptop when doing the stab anim, and what animation will I get to substitute the original snipe anim.. and how to put the delay so that she can perform the transitions before firing? thanks.
