That's a good idea... never looked at the super weapon coding.

In any case, I have problems qwith my ZH and it might be a glitch in my game, but my Avengers attack any type of inbound missile.

They're supposed to, any missle or rocket (besides superweapons) are defelcted. Things that aren't are: Projectiles (ranger machine gun type of weapon) Shells (tanks, nuke cannon included, scorp rocket=missle) lasers and explosives/falling buildings.

Where do you go to change the coding in your games. what files do i go into, do i need todownload something to edit it.

ur supposed to download finalbig.exe, proudly available on cnc generals world somewhere. then, all ini files in ur C:\ directory files i.e. the non-my documents files for zh, should appear as a piece of paper with a red arrow or something like that. once there, just go into weapon.ini file in ur inizh file and press control-f to open a search program. enter in something like nuclearmissile, all are one word, no spaces. NUCLEARMISSILEWEAPON IS NOT THE NUKE, ITS NUKE MIG MISSILE. This takes a while to soak in, do one sentence at a time.

I modified the nuke missile in the manner that Flip1299 suggested and changed my patriot missile coding so they can attack ballistic missiles. It actually works but what I'm finding is that once the missile is shot down, and once it hits the ground, everything in that area gets nuked. So if the missile happens to be shot down over your base, or over other concentrations of your units then look out. I'm wondering if there's a way around this. That is to say is there a way to completely destroy it before it hits the ground???

You are going to have to change the way the nuclear missile detonates, then.

Any suggestions as to how to do that???

Well...I'm sad to report that I'm no longer sure that I'm shooting down nuke missiles. After I enabled the nuke missile to be targeted and enabled the patriot missile to target ballistic missiles, the patriots began shooting at the incoming nuke missles (that never occured before). I concluded that they were being shot down after saving a game just before the enemy fired off a nuke missile and placing patriots, (prior to the nuke missile launch) at different locations during repeated plays of the same game. The nuke missile always seemed to target the same location of my base. When I moved the location of the patriots to a specific area, the nuke came down in a different location. Hence I concluded they were being shot down. That conclusion died recently when I was unable to repeat this affect under the same circustances. Alas......I am confused. My patriots are shooting but there now seems to be no consistancy to my original conclusion. There are alot of variables for both the patriots and the nuke missile. I have ajusted alot of them but alas, I'm not sure what effect most of them have. The net result of my efforts is that my patriots are in fact shooting at incoming nuke missiles, but there appears to be no real affect. (note: I have ajusted the weapon range for the patriot very high) Is there any data base that explains what these variables actually do???..........Am I flogging a dead horse???...Is there a way???...I need to know!!!

thanks

I imagine that the reason that the Nuclear Missile targeted a different location when you built lots of Partiots is because the AI always targets the area where it thinks the nuke will do the most monetary damage. How you went from this to the conclusion that the Patriots are neutralizing the Nuclear Missile, I don't know.
