Why did you change a dog of all things?!

 

Return the dog to default and create an actual new unit instead of changing a dog.

 

Oh, and I believe the problem is you telling it to be a railgun. There aren't any railguns in Red Alert 2 or Yuri's Revenge. In fact, I don't think they put the logic for railguns in the games.

[Doctor Destiny 42]

It can't be a railgun without calling the proper particle system. You can have spread damage, it just goes on the warhead.

 

Also, NEVER use spaces in INI entries. It's better if you keep it as one long string of text.

[alleylee 0]

and remove all that ;--- crap... you don't need them and it is a waste of space....

[Wildshield 0]

Add... AttachedParticleSystem=SmallRailgunSys ; or LargeRailgunSys to the weapon's stats. You can make up your own particle system if need be but the railgun logic takes a huge strain on the PC. Becareful on what you use. Lower the MaxEC tag in the RailgunParts section for better performance.

i did the dog because i don't want it in my mod and what crap

[alleylee 0]

why did you add it in the first place then?

[Doctor Destiny 42]

Just make the dog unbuildable but be warned, the AI will suffer and stop functioning properly.

[alleylee 0]

lol... or you can just make a new unit, and make it unbuildible by 3 ways... obsolete the whole coding by using ";", remove it from the types list or move it higher than 100 in the types list, or change the tech level to less than or equal to 0 or greater than or equal to 11...

[Doctor Destiny 42]

Dude, make it real easy by removing it from the proper list.

 

There are only 12 valid tech level settings. -1 and 1 to 11.

[alleylee 0]

eh? i thought you can just make it so that it is not from 1-10... i prefer changing to -1 so that i don't have to work with the types list...

[Doctor Destiny 42]

Setting it to an invalid number probably crashes the game since they most likely wrote an array for tech levels.

[alleylee 0]

ahh.... wouldn't it be easier to make the tech setting a range then setting individually?

[Doctor Destiny 42]

Indiviual is easier to set for each valid number. Ranges require more compex coding and what they have now is just perfect.

I have the shotgun trooper by ArgCmdr from http://www.yrarg.cncguild.net/

and the cameos are created by me (Ugkrut)

Sequence is the same as Vladamir

Along with the art i believe the art is the same as vladamir but do not count on it. (ALTHOUGH I KNOW FOR A FACT THAT THE SEQUENCE IS BASED ON VLADAMIR)

[alleylee 0]

what's the [unit] line?

[ugkrut 0]

[sHOTGUN]

[Wildshield 0]

change...

 

[sHOTGUN]

Sequence=E1Sequence ;since vladamir uses it as well.

 

and the IE is caused by the simple fact there is no warhead for the weapon.

[ugkrut 0]

thanks so much stinger i am so stupid i guess i just forgot to add a warhead.

[alleylee 0]

yeah... adding a warhead will help a lot...
