cgold -> Old BTR \ BOB editor or mod (9/3/2011 2:39:55 PM)

Hi, pls help me to edit something.

I am playing these great old games this days, after a lag of years.Was triggert, by reading Adolf Galland "The First and the Last" last week. [;)]

My BTR is 1.06a.

I will change something for my own pleasure.

1. LW AI will not react on fighter sweeps, the sweeper raids mostly stay close to target without facing a single counter attack, then doing high damage on grounded planes.

2. LW AI will not targeting escort fighters of bombing raids, so i take much higher losses, because the escorts can act without pressure on them.

3. If I order fighters by my hands to beat the escorts of a bombing raid, they wont do that, most times, they attac the bombers. Stupid. [:D]

4. Light anti air guns are nearly useless, 4 testing, i build a crazy concentration, nearly 800 small guns (37´,Quads,Singles) on a single airfield, but the sweeper raid ( 75 P 47 ) takes 8 of my planes out on ground and got a loss of 3 P 47.

5. Night fighters, including He 219 are only effective, if there is a heavy anti air battery directly below on the ground during the attack. They nearly wont shot down anything, when flying close to enemy, but without grounded support guns below. [X(]

6. Will integrate R4M Rockets and BK 201 / BK 203. [8D]

Wich way i can do something like that. Have no idea at the moment. Pls enable me, thank you. [:)]

Greetings, cgold

Sadly, I dont believe we will ever see an editor for this game.
Therefore we are forever to live with the decisions made by the devs, not saying they are wrong but as we all have different views on things
it would have been nice to work on them.

They only have to look at WITP/WITPAE to see the potential, there will never be any further development by the players of ED/BTR. Look how
vibrant the Forum community is here[:@], compare it to some of the others within the matrix forum.

Thx JeffK 4 reply, [:)]

An editor is not that strongly requestet 4 me, only the information, wich software or database i have to use to edit bomba ... bombp. dat files is essential.

If it brings me close to target, maybe i by the new matrix game version. But not without an "i am able to edit things" light on the horizon. [:D]

I f played these great games often, ask my wife .. [:D]

But, alltimes i broke down at the same point, there is balancing and changing needed, at this point, "**** no editing is posible", my interests broke down, think that happens to me and btr once a year since the release times.

The desingn is great, ... stuff to go people flashing. But, as example, the allied sudden death 01/44, it is so far to easy to get this as LW. Win conditions must be changed to harder ! [:)]

Allieds know about the upcoming of new long range fighters, they would never sue for peace in 01-04/44, after being impressed by loss of some planes.

Cool stuff maybe, what happend, when btr allows LW to bomb britain, or mediterain airfields.

First, i have to look at the files, then its the time to think and plan about modding. These days i only have cryptic data, needed to be decoded.

Hard Sarge, pls, bring me in ! [&o]



Greets, cgold

PS. Sorry 4 my poor english !
