Hello all, I would like to know if is possible to build structures on water simply by modifying "map.ini" file Would be helpful if you could explain to me how to consider a structure as a vehicle, with intent to change the "locomotor", as the line "KindOf = VEHICLE" is not enough Thank you all for your help

You mean like placing a war factory that can build boats, for example? Try placing one in water then change the Z value in the object properties box, raise it until it's over the water (in world builder).

or use boat's KindOf? CivilianVehiclePTBoat [code] ; * ENGINEERING Parameters * KindOf = SELECTABLE VEHICLE BOAT[/code]

Or if youre into modding you could make a building ( the land part) and grand an upgrade which adds a Portable Structure (Over-water part) to it (using overlord as example), and make the Portable contain all the spawn and path points. but it wouldn't work if the building was to be fully build over water. like an anti-boat turret or something. you'd have to experiment with the BOAT kindof of that P.S Triple post ftw

First of all thank you very much for your help guys. Let us proceed slowly The main objective is obviously to create a naval map where dozer builds structures in the water. I'd like to do it by modifing ini files trying to make it a multiplayer map # 2 This option is best if the buildings would be predefined, but I'd like it to be the player the one who freely build their buildings # 3 Using the code of the boat is not enough, or maybe i just dont know how to apply it correctly # 4 That would be a good idea, but first I'd want to test if the dozer can make structures in the water from the beggining In the last attempt from this afternoon, I made a modification in the boat and I have given the values of the USA war factory, intending to keep boat's Locomotor (and I dont know how to add Locomotor to structures) The boat (war factory) floats in the water and I can build it on the land, but it doesnt give me the option to start construction right in to the water, which is the point Any ideas guys? Thanks to you all [wink]

Since you cant build in water normally, you would have to change the structures properties and somehow remove the bit of code that says you can't build on water. I do not know how to do this yet but I'm browsing.

Posted by: BR-Alexandre - Wednesday, December 28, 2011 3:50:35 PM
don't forget dozers can't move on water, make another unit (hovercraft for example) buildable on land with ability to move over water to build the desired structure VTULCobra try searching for the codes that the campaing battleships use, they don't move and stand over water so you may find what you're searching on his codes you can't BUILD over water? check the AI's sistems as they sometimes violate game laws and build structures on hills and suplly docks or build 2 structures in same place, you may find something good on his cheats

I will look for it, but i think the campaign battleships are just normal "unmoving" battleships.

Still looking for people who've managed and also looking into the codes.

Posted by: Annihilationzh - Thursday, December 29, 2011 6:25:57 AM
You can't directly build on water. You have to use a workaround, like spawning the structure.

Posted by: NewNightmare - Thursday, December 29, 2011 6:47:04 AM
1)OCL? but how to make a button for an OCL that will cost you money ?

Posted by: VTULCobra - Thursday, December 29, 2011 6:59:46 AM
@Annihilationzh That's why I'm trying to find the piece of code that says you can't. @newnightmare OCL?

Posted by: NewNightmare - Thursday, December 29, 2011 7:05:06 AM
2)how to spawn a building with a button anyway (i.e without construction process) 3)Can't you make a kindof = BOAT based unit with 0 speed locomotor and give it building properties? (but then, can you make BOAT units to be built by a dozer?) I've seen a map (some GLA vs USA) where a guy made US warfactory create them rangers on snowmobiles as water units

Posted by: VTULCobra - Thursday, December 29, 2011 7:07:52 AM
Well everything is possible, but you need some serious coding skills.

Posted by: NewNightmare - Thursday, December 29, 2011 7:13:44 AM
[code] Well everything is possible[/code] U can't chane unit prices with Map.ini ! gotcha! OCL is the Object Creation List ini file, it contains all the spawning code (like rebel ambushes, China artillery MOAB, all units' death effects etc.

You might find something useful in "Beng's Naval Mod". *Edit [quote]U can't chane unit prices with Map.ini ! gotcha![/quote] Haha, damn it. ^^

I dont think naval mods include buildings FULLY on water the docks are built partly on land, making them require only standard building settings (from what I recall you can build docks in the middle of the base, and any boats made will just 'hover' to the water) Making units should be pretty easy, so, making building-like units should be possible (you can make a mobile bunker, why not a mobile war factory? do the kindofs block locomotors?

About your C&C Generals not working, does that include Zero Hour? Don't re-install, just remove it completely. When it's completely removed go to Start -> Search, and search for "zero hour" and "generals" and delete all files that shows up, after you've deleted them, search for it again, sometime some files get left behind. After that, install the game again, this could work for you, it works for me every time i mess the game up. [smile] [+1]
