I'd like to start this off by saying that i'm terribly sorry if this is the wrong place to post this, I read through the forums a bit and i can't quite figure out a better place, though, so feel free to get rid of it or something if you have to.

Anyway, this is a tool to randomize C&C Generals: Zero Hour.

Basically what it does is find any variables in the INIZH.BIG that match whatever variables your preset has selected to randomize, and then it randomizes them.

It can scan for variables in the INI and randomize between all scanned in variables (Useful for randomizing animations and such), and it can randomize number values and such as well.

It also has model and sound randomization (Working on implementing texture randomization) these two work by opening the W3DZH file in Zero hour, and the W3D file in generals to scan for all existing models (Even the ones that aren't used in the game) to randomize between, it does the same thing for the sound.

The tool isn't completely done yet, but i figured i'd post about it now to see if it'd get any attention before I release it. I do however have a video to show it off!

The tool itself should be finished very soon.

Hopefully it'll be of interest to someone, and again, terribly sorry if this is the wrong forum! Also for any grammar mistakes and such, i'm terrible.

Epic :) Would love to use that to play random games.
Would I be able to save them INI files? Does it make INI files?
So if I liked a unit I could save it?

It temporarely generates INI files in the INI directory, so in theory you could save the files you liked.

But if there's a certain randomization you really like, you can save the seed for it and reuse the same seed/preset combination, it'll always randomize it the exact same way that way.

Zero Hour on drugs. This is gold.
Any old friends still on here can add me on discord @jcdenton2187. I'm far more likely to respond there.
