LCT and LCVP

Post by SirkoGlaser »

I work on an own scenario - Landing on Phillippiens. I like to use the LCT and LCVP for the US Infantry and tanks - but in scenario there is only the normal transport ship.
Any help to set this naval tranport ships also for tanks in the scenario ?

I read this - but its possible to spawn only for Infantry - without Trucks only. But I like to set also trucks and tanks !

I think - you missunderstood me - I mean for recons and Artillery units with trucks.
For recon units (Jeeps) there is now spawn tranport option - and also not for the artillery with trucks.

You are right, there are no solutions in these cases.

I do not think because it is a specialization. Do not waste time with these details.

Is it possible to mod the specializations or create own ?
BTW - where are some modders here - to help us with this question.
Terminator - you are an OoB modder ?

The possible modifications are small: Description,Land, date, picture.
I am creating a mod : http://www.slitherine.com/forum/viewtop ... 74&t=82935
@GabeKnight is another modder : http://www.slitherine.com/forum/viewtop ... 74&t=82566
You can ask @GabeKnight if you want more precision.

OK - but there are only some changes inside the units parametes - there are also some more further developed modders to set new units etc into the game ?

Adding new 3D units
You can do it yourself. It's not that hard.

Thank - I never see this tutorial ! Do you have some examples for new included 3d units.
Or someone set many new units inside the engine ?

Can you send me some of your included examples - there is only an Churchill model - I like to set an own plane unit , but know how ?
I have the 3ds max 2104 and also the tool yet - but for now I cant see any of my created test figures inside the game.

Those are just the compiled binary MDB files. He can't really use them.

@SirkoGlaser
How about you send me (or post it here) your .max file and I'll take a look.
