Gah - well done! You found a bug. A missing ! means that you could never correctly over-ride animations. A solution for now would be to just rename the file to something that isn't used, and then it should show up. It doesn't have to be named the same as some existing one. Cheers Pip Well, I've bee...

Re: Couple Questions

First, how do you open a dds file. You can open it with photoshop or gimp, but you'll need a plugin for it. You can easily find it googling. There's no squads file. How do I get one for that campaign only without making one from scratch. And where do I put it. Copy the squads.csv file that is in th...

Yes, Pip, you are right, thanks ; :) I've been trying to replace the standard german flag, but with no luck... In a scenario with germans and americans, I've made a simple form (a cone) with a texture, to replace the german flag. Exported without problems, in the anim folder. There are two files : $...

I've been testing, and I can't manage to add a brand new vp flag to the game. I can add new units without problem, but I don't know how can I do for the flag. I have a folder MyDocs/BBCBA/Campaigns/My campaign/core/anim with the dds and the sf4 generated from the exported sf3 files. In functions.BSF...

Terrain levels

Working with the editor, I realized that i can raise and lower only one terrain level. Is this a fixed valor?...I seem to remember that when I was testing the editor in the beta phase, I could raise and lower more than one terrain level...or maybe I'm wrong...

Ostwind, Is there a way to have a Victory Point not held by either nation at the start of the game? I really don't know....I'll make some tests.... Edit: Tests made, and it's easier than I thougt. You have to set the victory point to any other side different from side 0 or side 1, f.ex.: SetGlobal(...

It's good to see that you've enjoyed this small scenario. If you are not wise enough, the bad guys will take your back :P
It's just a 16x16 grid, but I needed some days for finishing it. Your big scenario will require a huge work. Waiting for it to play :D .

In this causeway there are two sandbag positions. The one where the 88 is, sometimes is hidden by the vp flag, depending on the rotation of the map. If you weren't close enough to see the gun, your tanks bypassed it, and as adherbal says, maybe was suppressed.

Re: PUHHH!

Should I delete 25 pdr. or Bishops? Your suggestion please? Maybe the 25pdr. and the external aids (artillery, medic,...). This would make you advance more carefully :wink: .
