Do you want Generals Challenge taunts in Skirmish?

I've been thinking about making a ZH SkirmishScripts.scb file with the generals challenge taunt sounds for every general. That's roughly 500-800 sound files to play, so it won't get boring very quickly.

Would it be possible to have it in such a way that it could be imported into a SkirmishScripts.scb? 'Cos otherwise I'd never be able to put it into my AI, unless their was some way of doing an automated merging of 2 scb's; unlikely I think.
Just a thought, otherwise it becomes something that you can have instead of an improved AI, as opposed to something that any AI coder can import into their AI. Code reusability and all that jazz.

Yes, and make it react like the real thing, like in the challenge or something, maybe even by the F keys... for some, of course not all

Theoretically there might be a way to merge two .scb files. I'm going to look into the format a bit more, and see if I can find a way to make it work. I don't have a lot of time right now, but I will see what I can do in the future.Would it be possible to have it in such a way that it could be imported into a SkirmishScripts.scb?

Too cute! | Server Status: If you can read this, it's up |Well, when it comes to writing an expository essay about counter-insurgent tactics, I'm of the old school. First you tell them how you're going to kill them. Then you kill them. Then you tell them how you just killed them.

Hey mastermind if you're gonna look into the format and you get that far, I would find it extremely useful to know how you parse it;
I could make something that transforms it into plain text and back, that would make some scripting so much easier; imagine being able to easily copy and paste a bunch of scripts, then search and replace on them so they work with a different faction...

Uhm.. if you modify the .scb's from the challenge maps, deleting all mission specific scripts and similar things, you can import it cumulatively into your usual .scb

WOW! 
This would be amazing cool)) Cause i like the Gameplay of the Challenge, if you destroy something and the Gen yells at you 
This should be in Skirmish too, yeah And you should be able to press your own Taunts, just for pushing your inner Ego 
In that way, Skirmish Battles would be a lot more interesting and funny as well
