The newer scripts released with mars negates the changes npsmith made with the black hand names for us sniper moderators. If it's possible, npsmith, could you release an updated version? As well ACK, if it's possible, could your future releases include them as well?

Lovely. Maybe, then, npsmith82 will be so kind. I don't see any reason for balancing that the names shouldn't be there if available.
I'm the bawss.

If it's the job of making the strings.tdb that ACK has with npsmiths version, it is fairly simple to add the two together whilst keeping the changes made. I take it he must have add new strings because currently the black hand is all one string and not seperate ones for each unit.I say it's fine to add strings or fix fulty ones like ACK has done with the EVA announcements but if your changing westwood ones that don't cause a problem then I wouldn't change them as there not broken.
I take it you had to make sniping only maps too or you would have had to change Westwood strings to make your changes to the blackhand. If that was the case why didn't you edit the PT settings and disable non sniping units, a simple task?
It's an easy enough job to change the strigs.tdb into one file if you have both files.

n00b alert- What are the strings.dbb?
|
Strings.tdb is a file containing strings. The strings are a piece of data cointaining links to text, sound, or an animation. Basically it is a big table containing a name that makes it easy to link to the file. When you point to any object in game th text below the object is stored in the strings.tdb. Also all EVA announcements and conversatios have a string. ACK added strings for broken buildings to make the EVA announce the sound when attached etc.

Black Hand soldiers are named "Black Hand" to make it harder to distinguish what they are, therefore giving the Nod team another infantry advantage, although slight.
|
How would this be an advantage for Nod? If black hands are meant to be hard to distinguish which they are, why do the all look completely different? If you're close enough to point your reticule on them, it's visually clear which black hand they are. To me, this sounds like this is just your opinion of how it's been made.
If anything, it could be considered a tiny advantage for the GDI.

The newer scripts released with mars negates the changes npsmith made with the black hand names for us sniper moderators. If it's possible, npsmith, could you release an updated version?
|
Sure, i'll get that done within the next few hours.
I'll re-bump the previous thread when it's ready.
