Space, Adding Units and Lightsabers

yodaminch · Post by **yodaminch** » Tue Apr 11, 2006 2:46 pm

Ok. I tried to add a new unit to each side and they don't show up. Also lightsabers when swung do nothing, which I remember reading others had trouble with. However, when I hexedited back in november lightsabers did fine. So is there a script somewhere in land battles not present in space battles that makes lightsabers work?

Yeah there are no sounds for lightsabers in the space levels. You'll have to create a new custom sound lvl

Wouldn't adding a readdatafile in the LUA fix the sound. I can't get the Sabers to cuase damage either, what needs to be done?

honestly, i couldn't care less about sounds unless they cause damage. I just want them to kill droids when swung

Also what about adding a new unit without replacing pilot or marine?

yeah im also stuck with the sounds and lightsabre damage... the same thing happens if you add anyother unit for example the clone commanders chain gun doesnt have a sound or do damge

Sounds can be added by following Rend's tutorial (I think -- I'm not sure how units work)

As far as saber damage, Vyse and I figured it out last night, but I'm not on my home computer so I can't give you an answer at the moment. It involves adding jedi-specific memory pools.

jkempster · Post by **jkempster** » Wed Apr 12, 2006 9:55 am

what if you need to add two or three new units ? how do i do that

Vyse · Post by **Vyse** » Wed Apr 12, 2006 11:56 am

Here are the lines Teancum and I added to the LUA. Still working on getting the sound back in.

Also delete the line in the LUA under the memory spool called SetMemoryPoolSize("Combo" Damage,0)

Add these

SetMemoryPoolSize ("Combo",50) -- should be ~ 2x number of jedi classes
SetMemoryPoolSize ("Combo::State",650) -- should be ~12x #Combo
SetMemoryPoolSize ("Combo::Transition",650) -- should be a bit bigger than #Combo::State
SetMemoryPoolSize ("Combo::Condition",650) -- should be a bit bigger than #Combo::State
SetMemoryPoolSize ("Combo::Attack",550) -- should be ~8-12x #Combo
SetMemoryPoolSize ("Combo::DamageSample",6000) -- should be ~8-12x #Combo::Attack
SetMemoryPoolSize ("Combo::Deflect",100) -- should be ~1x #combo

you add two or three in the same way... instead of special you can use any of the following...
soldier
assault
engineer
sniper
officer
special
pilot
marine

----------------

im gonna try adding that to my lua ill tell you if it works...

also do any of you know how to add the shimmer effects on the capital ships?

Post by **Teancum** » Wed Apr 12, 2006 1:14 pm

In response to WsCandy, I can tell you the following:

engineer == pilot -- They are interchangeable, and if you put both in, one will trump the other
assault == marine (pretty sure. It's been awhile) -- They are interchangeable, and if you put both in, one will trump the other

wouldn't it be more like soldier and marine? ah well i can always test it...

Excellent. Thanks a lot.

One last issue. Not sure why, but for some reason, I can't land the republic gunship in the cis hanger. I can land the cis gunship in the republic hanger however. Any idea what is wrong there?

Post by **Teancum** » Wed Apr 12, 2006 2:43 pm

Can you land any other ships in the CIS hangar? There's something like LandingRegion or something that you need.

WsCandy · Post by **WsCandy** » Wed Apr 12, 2006 3:20 pm

that happens with me somtimes... is a bit awkward... just keep hitting space bar if you have a landing region.... if not then add a landing region... also that script there just crashes my map...

i also had an annoying bug with landing, i added a landing region and it still wouldnt work!

Yes i can. I can land the jedi fighter and the v wing. Haven't tried the arc 170, but will try right now. I haven't touched zeroedit much except to edit anakin's starfighter to my custom one. that was all though so i don't believe i removed any regions.

WsCandy · Post by **WsCandy** » Wed Apr 12, 2006 4:28 pm

its just an annoying bug... just try to fly lower and tap the space bar...

Alright then. It does seem to work again.
