I was wondering if it is possible to make Cluster bombs in the game, I was looking through the china cluster mines in OCL.ini and WeaponsObjects.ini and couldn't seem to look for the right source or line to change.

While I don't know how, I can confirm it's possible as I've seen it done in mods twice, one in the old "SecondWave" and the more recent one in "CnC Europe".

Theire are alot of cluster bomb effects in shockwave, try to download it and get some of the sluster bomb inins under the air force genral, but make sure to ask the shockwave staff first!!!!!

You don't need to ask their permission, just check and see how they did it and then do it your own way. Just don't copy and paste anything that has to do with their mod. There are mods other than Shockwave with this kind of code so I don't think they are the first ones to do it.

that's what i meant, i was looking for the 'objects' that the cluster mine dropped and wanted to change it but i didn't know what to change. all i found was mines, something or minebehavior or something. and i didn't know if the mines object are linked to the mines that a purchased for china's buildings

Having a bomb detonate at a set height and making it spawn bomblets via an OCL might work.

ok, but which part of the or an OCL. I am also unsure in how to make bomblets.I mean i know how to create shells and make them big or small but I don't know how to make a cluster of these fall to the ground and explode at once.

ok, like i said, download chockwave and check the Aiforce genral ini. There should be the specks for th hurrican missle launcher, and the b1- lancer, each drop bomblets after the impact of the bomb. I bet the hurrican effect is what you want though. If fires a missle and on impack, it speads out little bomblet around the impact area in a circle design. Alos the B-1 bomb effects drops a fewer amount of bomblets, but the bomblets are more powerful

cant you just make mines auto-explode, so even tho china cant use the structure upgrade then due to massive self-damage, you should have cluster bomb right?

that's what i want, waht red leader said. but i'm not sure in how to do that. as with the shockwave thing, i can't download that, it's too big. may be some other time.

warbringer if you know how to create a new weapon (just copy what the rest of finalbig does), then just make one that fires oh-so-many generictankshells with all that other junk and a scatter radius, then set the china cluster mine to use clusterbombweapon (or whatever you call it). that should do it. i havent pinpointed the exact location of the china cluster bomb in the china files. anybody know?

? The problem is how do i make "oh-so-many generictankshells" scatter. I only know how to make one object, not one object that can explode into 25 other things.

and if your looking for cluster mines, it's in the weaponsobject.ini or the weapons file in the folder object. There's no such thing as a cluster bomb object or whatever
