After making a new scenario as instructed, it crashes when I try to start a game using it.

I've attached the ConsoleOut.txt from when it crashed.

Bleck -> RE: Modding tutorial project (10/16/2009 9:33:43 PM)

Can you upload misc.csv and consts.csv files from this new scenario you are working on?



AH4Ever -> RE: Modding tutorial project (10/16/2009 9:59:23 PM)

Sure! I've renamed a .zip to .txt

I was testing to see if the other scenarios in my copy of the ToW folder on another drive were working but I wasn't choosing a Human player so that I could back out. After starting Barbarossa I tried my MOD_01 and got this.

In misc.csv you attached texts are in quotation-marks ("some text"). Simply remove all " characters in this file.

misc.csv, last value in 5th line must be equal to game version.

Thank you, once again.

This is what happens when you let amateurs play with powerful software.

This time about the weather



weather.csv file tells you what kind of weather is at given hex and can it be changed by weather generator (1) or not (0).

Is it possible to use weather.csv to prevent weather from happening in a particular hex or group of hexes?


Never mind I figured it out. It works, it's possible, I did it. [sm=happy0065.gif]

Types of Weather - Good = 0, Snow =1, Mud = 2

BTW while I was working on this, I noticed that in cities.csv there is no entry or data for Istanbul (179,129)

doomtrader -> RE: Modding tutorial project (11/3/2009 10:16:38 AM)

@overthehill64
Sorry for the late reply.
If you would like to change level of your already owned units (those on map or i deploy pool), go to land_units.csv file in your save game folder. Level of unit is in sixth column.

If you would prefer to buy new tanks with higher level, then go to countries.csv file and change entry sixteenth column.

I figured it out. Types of Weather - Good = 0, Snow =1, Mud = 2




[8|] I was quite happy with myself when I thought I had figured out how weather.csv works.

I was baffled when I first opened it from within the 1939 scenario and saw just remarks and no entries. I played around with it and came up with what I assumed was a way to block mud and snow from generating in cities hexes.

Please take a look at the uploaded file which I renamed .txt so I could upload it.


To continue now that I've started testing my MOD, I discovered weather.csv in my saved game directory where it eventually generates it's own entries to effect the weather in specific hexes.

This leads me to another assumption that this file cannot be modified.

Is this correct?

doomtrader -> RE: Modding tutorial project (11/13/2009 3:34:19 PM)

For good weather there is no entry in the file, so it wouldn't prevent to change into mud or snow as it was designed to keep 'bad' weather at the map.

The thing you might consider is to use events with those methods:
<effect method="New.StartWinterArea" param0="X" param1="Y" param2="X" param3="Y" param4="0/1" />
<effect method="New.StartMudArea" param0="X" param1="Y" param2="X" param3="Y" param4="0/1" />
<effect method="New.EndWinterArea" param0="X" param1="Y" param2="X" param3="Y" param4="0/1" />
<effect method="New.EndMudArea" param0="X" param1="Y" param2="X" param3="Y" param4="0/1" />
But let me warn you, they were not fully tested.

Is there a limit to the number of sea zones and/or ports?



doomtrader -> RE: Modding tutorial project (12/17/2009 4:36:58 PM)

As far as I know there is no limit.
But please double check there is no empty line at the bottom of the file.

hmm....for some reason I haven't found yet......whenever I make a change to the countries.csv the scenario refuses to load...

err....Help?



cpdeyoung -> RE: Modding tutorial project (12/19/2009 12:40:42 AM)

Just in case, I remind you that these files use semicolons, rather than commas, and are best edited in Notepad, rather than Excel.

Chuck



Harbinger -> RE: Modding tutorial project (12/19/2009 2:01:17 AM)

It doesn't seem to matter which format i use, Excel or Notepad. I can however, make a copy of the file, edit that any way I want and then copy/paste to the other.
