Modding Questions

[Oblivion165 0]

So far as of yet i havent found a modding forum for Generals. Im from the renegade community (RenegadeForums.com), and im looking for something similar for generals.

 

Ive learned most things for generals by just browsing the ini's. I use project raptor and am editing it further. The two questions i have are:

 

1. Where are the labels stored for objects and menu items. (String Names, such as "Pathfinder")

 

2. Why can i not restrict GLA and China to the sciences. Im making it so that the super weapons are harder to get. Within the first 5 minutes of the game everyone already has their's up. So i made the price tag 50,000 and i have USA restricted to Rank 5. So you cant build a superweapon until you are at least that rank. However, when i put the same rank restriction on GLA or China, the game does it's crash sequence.

 

Hope to hear from somebody. Thanks and hello.

1. The file that contains most of the strings used in ZH is the Generals.CSF, it can be found it "ZHAppFolderDataEnglish" folder. You can exract it from English.BIG if I'm not wrong.

 

2. Why don't you put more details about it? There is a difference in USA, China, and GLA science. Maybe you forgot to set a new parameter.
