1.
A short while ago I opened up my General challenge maps (GC) and mission maps. I noticed that most of the enemys buildings are blinking like, red - white - green - white - red - green and so on.
So is there a way I can make them stop blinking like this (something in the skripts?) so I can select them and move them around and then later make them blink again when I am done moving them?

2.
I don't know if this is possible and this might be in the wrong Forum section but,
is there any way I can:
Re-enable the shellmap (it did not show up when I installed the game to my new computer)
and re enable all of the news reporter videos when I enter the missions?
(which did not show up either when I installed my game)

hmm...
if I don't reply to a topic I don't know the answer - sorry

i have some WB experience and i know if it is blinking is due to the player's build list. you have to select the player and its list then click the building you want to move then when you release it, the building will blink again and the AI will build/rebuild it there now. you can also change the AI's base with build list tool

...i run as administrator and shellmap and news still don't work

Why are you trying to move the structures in the general challenge anyway? And they are in the build list tool so that the AI will rebuild the structures infinite amounts of time after they are destroyed. They made the build list tool so they wouldn't have to script all the "rebuilds".

no I just wanted to know how to do something about those structures.

I have General Juzhizes GC map made after DeeZire and I don't like the look of the map. I want to move structures to a better place and more. but I am not going to change anything about the mission maps or the other General Challenge maps.
And I want to make the look better of DeeZires GC map of the Infantry general. all of the buildings are just at a random place and I want to place them all in a better way 😉

Oh. If there are any maps that you have made you should post them. Let people play your maps.

I myself am working on making a campaign. It's for the China Infantry General. I have also done a few general Challenges myself. They all have basic coding for paths and flanking.

But i have two questions:
1. When i try to make a military briefing, it says "missing" ie: STYLO.
a. I have made a STYLO in wordpad but it still says "missing" and doesn't show the rest of the briefing. Even though i put it into the map file as map.str.

2. How do you post maps for download here on the site rather than just putting it in the forum?

I got the answer to the second one. I've applied my maps to them and hopefully they get accepted. We'll see.

sorry.. I don't know the answer to either of these questions.
and those general challenge maps,
DeeZire made them, but I have moddified them very much (the landscape and made them much cooleer 😛 )
so I guess I can post them.. but people will have to moddifie their own Campaign.INI in order to play those..
or I guess I can just post my moddified version..

I think it is better that you will post your question in a new topic so people can help you
