Hi all,
these forums seem to be the holy grail of all mod troubles [Big Grin]

so i was wondering if you could answer these questions for me (i'm stuck [Razz]

) i'm trying to customise the purchase settings in my map i see it done all the time! with other maps ACK's ones, omaha beach etc, loads!

Also customising the weapon(s) and health amount that you start with (initaly and when purchasing a new character) [Smile]

I have been modifying the 'character classes (gdi)' options in the global settings --> purchase settings bit of the commando editor and other bits in there but nothing seems to work! any ideas??

much apreciated

i'm sure you can add new vehicles and adjust the purchace settings from the globals ...i've experimented with it a few times.

my suggestion would be to keep working at it......it took me more than a few trys to get it right [Big Grin]

Are you adding an icon for your new unit in the settings for the purchace of said new unit?

i'm pretty sure that there is a tutorial on how to add new items to the purchace menus but i cant remember where i saw it at......anyone else here know where that tutorial was or is now?

Eric.

yes im adding icons to the pt screen im trying to get some of the secret and mutant characters working for gdi and nod (logan, locke and kane etc) and eventually doing a sniper only conversion so the pt options are essential.

I'm going to convert the .pkg to a .mix at he end that wont effect it will it?

If any one does find a tutorial on this please post here! until then im going to browse the archives here..... [Frown]

alot to get through so ill be off

you will lose the changes if you try ti put in new stuff to make it a .mix. You can't edit the presets if you want a .mix

If you want new presets to work on a mix you have to use the "Temp" button instead of "Add" in Commando.

To change the purchase settings in a mix file you have to create a 'Temp' version of them. Modifications to the new temp purchase settings will show up in a mix file.
