shadowriath Posted December 16, 2002 Posted December 16, 2002 But not in the game either campigne or normal. One of them that should have been in the game is the B-wing...but um a problem with the B-wing is how to set it up in the engine to be balenced and maintain it's own specs (which the TIE-Defender failed at, as in it has shields). The B-wing has both kinds of blaster's which that cause's a problem as in how to tell the engine to have one unit fire both, easiest way is to alternat between. (current specs for B-wing is 20/0/4..green blaster) Still bafels me is the 5 AT-AT's fitting into a Trooper lander:/ I don't mind a little off balence for more realizum...but if players build and stick with what the civ is best with you can see an unbalence. Points like this....HDD or DTP2 vs any mech size smaller ground unit is just cruel punisment (except jedi). As well as units which receive the upgrade bonus of two unit types....DD, DT, and JSF being a couple, these units once alot is resourced they can do some remarkable things.
pbguy1211 Posted December 16, 2002 Posted December 16, 2002 um.... not to sound mean or anything... but what's your point?
shadowriath Posted December 16, 2002 Author Posted December 16, 2002 Well a few things. News on these units... 1: Are they units that got left in the game engine? 2: Units intended to be used but never did? 3: Units only useable in custom single player scenarios? 4: Any way to add these units to build list's so you can build them and not just have an X amount placed? Questions should have been obveous.

Right... if you're going to be an ass, and insult people who are trying to help you out, you can at least spell "obvious" right. Well a few things. News on these units... 1: Are they units that got left in the game engine? 2: Units intended to be used but never did? 3: Units only useable in custom single player scenarios? 4: Any way to add these units to build list's so you can build them and not just have an X amount placed? 1: Keep reading... 2: Keep reading... 3: Yes, this also answers 1 and 2. 4: Yes... but only in a scenario. You need to create an enable unit trigger, and it will replace a buildable object in that units building of choice (for example, making Vader an enabled unit would let you build Vader from a Sith temple... most likely replacing the Sith Apprentice). However, I don't think you can enable to only build X amount. But I could be wrong. You're welcome...
Admiral Vostok Posted December 17, 2002 Posted December 17, 2002 Cool, I didn't know you could do number 4! Does this mean you can enable Ewoks and stuff like that? Is there a resource on the web that details every feature of the scenario editor? Because that could be very handy. Also, you could limit to X number of units with a separate trigger, couldn't you?
pbguy1211 Posted December 17, 2002 Posted December 17, 2002 not sure about limiting unit #'s... but i don't think so. I'm pretty sure you could create and ewok... I'd guess they'd replace a mountie or a pummel or something...
SE_Vader_536 Posted December 20, 2002 Posted December 20, 2002 isnt there a limit object trigger? I know theres something that limits the amount of units made in herofest....
Sithmaster_821 Posted December 20, 2002 Posted December 20, 2002 Wow, pbguy, are you joking? That's awesome. :cool:
pbguy1211 Posted December 20, 2002 Posted December 20, 2002 check out the heavensgames forums on this game. there's a thread all about it there. you can't enable ALL the guys for each civ... because they all replace the same unit. Example, the Jedi replace the Padawan spots. So you only can have 1 jedi enabled.
Sithmaster_821 Posted December 21, 2002 Posted December 21, 2002 Yeah, SWGBH was getting a little too crazy for me awhile ago, so I left and came here. Has it gotten better?
pbguy1211 Posted December 21, 2002 Posted December 21, 2002 Well, I've only been going to their mods section of late and not much else... there's some cool mods to d/l and some cool ones in the making...
Sithmaster_821 Posted December 22, 2002 Posted December 22, 2002 When i left, there only was only like three. Maybe i'll go back now.
Admiral Vostok Posted December 22, 2002 Posted December 22, 2002 I tried it with a couple of units, one at a time, but it didn't work. I'll have to read the SWGBH thing I guess.
CorranSec Posted December 22, 2002 Posted December 22, 2002 Ooh.... mods..... I'll go and have a look.
Sithmaster_821 Posted December 23, 2002 Posted December 23, 2002 I didnt think it would work. That would require a pretty massive amount of programming for one puny trigger that no one knows about.
lukeiamyourdad Posted December 23, 2002 Posted December 23, 2002 I just realized that not even half of the heroes can be enable. you can't even enable Ewoks or bounties. You also cannot enable UU heroes(like wedge antilles in his snowspeeder). It's really quite stupid. The only thing that worked and made sense is the B-Wing. It doesn't replace anything it's simply added. Others make no sense in what they replace. Like Emperor Palpatine replaces the Sith knight instead of the sith master! And Mara Jade replaces the Air Cruiser!!!!!
CorranSec Posted December 23, 2002 Posted December 23, 2002 Well, that seems to make the entire replacing thing pretty pointless. .... is THIS thread destroyed?
Sithmaster_821 Posted December 24, 2002 Posted December 24, 2002 Not yet. Mara Jade as an Air Cruiser? What does she do, fart lasers?
lukeiamyourdad Posted December 24, 2002 Posted December 24, 2002 Mara Jade is a super strong stealth trooper. It still puzzles me how she replaces the air cruiser. Uh Oh! we are alone th three of us again! Someone come save this thread!
Sithmaster_821 Posted December 24, 2002 Posted December 24, 2002 I've used Jade in my scenerios before, sheerly because i like her stealth power
CorranSec Posted December 28, 2002 Posted December 28, 2002 I've used Jade, but mostly because she's one of my favourite characters (from the books). Even though I don't really like the voice they used. Or the picture. Oh well, one can't have everything.... Luke's dad, I am sorry to say that this thread is beyond salvation. Let us have some time to mourn its death, as befits such a wonderful thread. .................. That seems to be long enough. Come on, get that corpse out of here!
lukeiamyourdad Posted December 29, 2002 Posted December 29, 2002 Nah let's stay a bit and talk about something off-topic...after that we can throw out this corpse... So you're a mara jade fan? Yeah she's nice looking.Well from what I am picturing in the books....
CorranSec Posted December 30, 2002 Posted December 30, 2002 Er. I wasn't exactly thinking about her that way. But on the topic... according to starwars.com, some model posed as Mara for a convention or something, and she is now recognised as what Mara looks like.
