It's *almost* the same, just the color is different.
I don't think CnCVK has found any way to fully costumize the color yet, so it would be good if people could at least choose between green and purple.

Actually, the Mag Beam is rendered starting from the target towards the firer when it attacks a VehicleType, the old sonic beam was always drawn from the firer towards the target.

Edit: heh, that was already mentioned on the ModEnc page... that'll teach me ot post before checking the links... anyway, it's still a significant difference.


RE: Patching extra functionality into <gamemd.exe> - Renegade - 05.02.2007

Indeed, didn't think about that. My bad.

(What you want: a lot of features and a lot of bugs or rather-stable version?)

I count this to laziness Tongue

I agree though, bugfixes are more important.

I know that the ion cannon can be fired from map triggers already, but the logic to reinforce by droppods is now used to drop infantry by paradrop. Will we get a new teamtype flag to allow reinforcement by droppod as well?

i think this is why VK changed the superweapon spacific Drop tags from ParaDropInf= & ParaDropNum= to DropInf= & DropNum= when he made droppods work.

So I take it Drop Pods can't be controlled by map triggers then?

I told about it ten times....
DropPod and ParaDrop SWs using the same tags, so I rename from ParaDrop* to Drop Smile

Now no, but in future - yes Smile

RE: Patching extra functionality into <gamemd.exe> - Bobingabout - 08.02.2007

i hope this is a coding error on your part, because this is the only type of superweapon used by R:ROTC, and if Fire superweapon types are brocken, this means another R:ROTC 0.4.2.1 release delay.


RE: Patching extra functionality into <gamemd.exe> - pd - 08.02.2007

nobody cares about your mod, bob. in fact, I bet most of the people are disgusted by your mod thanks to you naming it anytime. I'm already getting aggressions when I only see "R:ROTC" in one of your posts...

@ zhaihs:
Your code seems to be OK, it's just Range=0 which looks a bit strange. I don't believe it causes an IE though.
Another thing I'm not sure about: you used SuperWeapon2=... did you try SuperWeapon=... ?
Again, I don't really think that's the problem, but you might try.

Bug --> Bugtracker.


RE: Patching extra functionality into <gamemd.exe> - zhaihs - 08.02.2007
