Sub-factions, A way TSSFW can be completed. Options

[Apache]

Sub-factions.
Instead of adding sides in Rules INI and losing lots of features...just follow this.

Now as read at TSSFW topic the sub-factions have many different features.
Just try something like this.

Example:Create a map. Open it in wordpad after completion.

Add on Rules INI tags.

For the GDI TD army, I can do this. TD sub-faction units are stronger since in TD there is no veteran status.
And you may need an art.ini for this.

CODE

[E1]
Name=Minigunner

Art.ini if you have a TD Minigunner skin.

Add on besides Name=Minigunner...

CODE

Image=TDE1;whatever the name is.

And weapon.

[Minigun]
Strength=18

Or the GDI airforce army.

Instead of A10, you have the Firehawk as seen from C&C3. Lots must be changed.

I'll code up an A10. And change the following tags.

CODE

[A10]
Name=Firehawk
Image=FIREHAWK
Strength=600

Create a firehawk.vxl and add that in.

It isn't that hard even if some of you know this.

I hope this can help you.

I've read this "text" (no, i refuse to call this "tutorial") three times and still have no clue what you want/intend.
a) what's TSSFW?
b) what have subfactions to do with modding a map to add other units
c) art.ini entries don't work in maps, thus new images aren't possible in maps

There's not one explanation, let alone a useful information in it. Also use proper english sentences instead of this word conglomeration.

Sorry, but right now i can only ask a mod/admin to delete this topic (as fast as possible).

a ) Apache's mod...check Mod announcments.
b ) I could explain that. Once you create a map, add rules.ini tags. Now you have to give some units. Like for his Nod Laser Legion, instead of Tick Tank, its Laser Tank.

He opens the map in wordpad, then changes these tags.

CODE

[TTNK]
Name=Laser Tank
Strength=500
Speed=5
Primary=LaserFire3;new weapon

And all other changes.

And GDI's airforce army on the same map.
Like said above.

The map would be something like Aircraft VS Lasers. Same for the other 4 sub-factions of GDI and Nod.
Explosive VS Chemical...as well as the other like I said.
And besides, he is creating two campaigns. Each mission you play as either normal, or with the units of the sub-factions.

c ) Even I knew that. Theres a problem for him

Yes LKO I would lock this too.

I got a better idea..

[moved to TS Modding]

[Devastator]

Now thats a good idea.

Now lots of people will be roaming your topic for making admin.

[Rampastring]

This is more about modding a map rather than adding subfactions. And I think we already know all of modding maps and adding subfactions.

[Devastator]

I learned that maybe five years ago.
