So i made a custom Paladin Tank and Humvee with bigger health and high damage Laser weapons but they just appear gray colored in the Airforce general War Factory and can't be built,i've set the Prerequisites to AirF_AmericaWarFactory but its still unbuildable,how do i fix that?

Lol. Your favourite general is so blatantly Laser general and not Airforce general. You add lasers to absolutely everything. Sounds like a typo in one of the unit names.

[quote=Tank Destroyer;135780]lol i like both of them even before i modded the King Raptors to have lasers[/quote] Once you got rid of the missile payload, it stopped being a King Raptor. It's a Laser Raptor, which again fits Laser General better than Airforce general. [quote=Tank Destroyer;135780]And also i renamed the Humvee to AmericaVehicleHumvee2 is it because of the re-naming thats why i can't build it in the War factory?[/quote] Did you add an appropriate command button for the Humvee2?

Practically everything will attack with lasers. Laser-point defense for his aircraft, Laserfinders, Laser Defenders, etc... Heheheheheheheh...

Try changing a unit's cost and see if that shows up in game.

[quote=CommieDog;135815]Try changing a unit's cost and see if that shows up in game.[/quote] Yep,i changed the cost and still nothing,i still cant be able to build it in the War Factory :(

Posted by: klingondragon - Friday, January 23, 2015 3:29:48 PM
I think you were meant to check that the price change shows up in game

Posted by: CommieDog - Friday, January 23, 2015 3:47:17 PM
To be more clear, try changing the cost of something that's already in the game and see if the change takes effect when you start the mod.

You're sure everything's in the right folder, right? The INI folder in your ZH Program Files directory? Can you post a couple screenshots to show? Just a thought.

You said you created AmericaVehicleHumvee2 in an earlier post, but your command button uses AirF_AmericaVehicleHumvee2. If this is true, then I've found your problem.

Its supposed to be calls object not objects And America vehicle and faction building and any othe ini with objects in should be in that folder Look at the original file path for each ini that should tell you where to put each of the original files you have modded

[quote=CommieDog;135818]To be more clear, try changing the cost of something that's already in the game and see if the change takes effect when you start the mod.[/quote] I tried to change the cost of the Ranger(tried it in USA,AirforceGen,LaserGen) changed it to 500,1000 and i even changed it to 0,2000 and also 5000 but it doesn't show any difference it still cost the normal price even though i changed it. EDIT: LOL i put all the necessary files in the Object folder and NOW it works [grin] [+1] Also now my custom units such as laser humvee,A10 Thunderbolt and my new General is now working perfectly(though i still have alot of work left to do with the new General) but anyways all my problems are solved [+1] EDIT2: Though im wondering why does my custom general appears in the selection(where you select what side you are in skirmish) it apears MISSING in the start of the name,how do i remove that?

AmericaVehicle, FactionBuilding, and AirforceGeneral .ini's are supposed to go in the "Objects" folder. Putting them in the wrong spot results in them doing nothing at all (or I thought a crash, but you haven't said that's happening to you).

of corse add your weapon to weapon.ini and your armour to armour.ini

[quote=Tank Destroyer;135839]Oh last question,is it possible to create new Armor Types and Attack Types?[/quote] Creating new Armor is easy enough, just take an existing armor, copy that, and change whatever you want. An attack type? If you're referring to the things in all caps, like "POISON, RADIATION, LASER, BURNING, SMALL_ARMS" I wouldn't think so. Most of the stuff in all caps like that is hardcoded and not accessible through .ini coding. However, i've never actually tried to create a new damage or attack type, so I'm not completely sure.
