Hello

Tell me, is here a way to make SW PsychicReveal to also reveal cloaked units?

[Graion Dilach]

Not without Ares on NPatch.

Okay, thanks for the answer.
What about an airstrike then? How to make it?
I see one in Generals mod.

Airstrike? Copy Boris's weapon, or grab NPatch/Ares and play with it's SpyPlane SWs.

Thanks again for reply, it's like you alone alive out here
Everything works, but... how to fix this "missing:name" strings?

I take it I should make changes in ra2md.csf, but the problem is that MO launcher rewrite it with her own file.
If i set read-only flag, mod will not activate.

What should i do? Can I somehow force mod launcher to use my file?

No, Mod launcher is intentionally meant to do that so actual mod it launches becomes dominant files wise and thus override existing stuff needed to. Any ideas of blending own mod with another by just files is lousy result unless actually code in such blends. Incase your just wanting customize MO, your best bet is just force the mod to remain active by closing the launcher forcibly when modded game is running but otherwise every run of launcher will do override it and nothing you can do about it. Now if you want to occasionally play MO besides your own mod...you have to clean up "move" your mod files to other folder or your stuff can be overriden.

Well, rulesmd.ini is not overriden

I guess, i will just make my own MO launcher with my files?

Btw, one more question - is it possible to make spawned aircraft (from SW airstrike i make) to have unique icon on radar? Or something else so it can be easily spotted?

[Graion Dilach]

Nope, you can't specify the radar color.

Last question - is there some tutorials for XCC mod creator? I can't create proper .xmlf file.

[RdX]

well.. the only tutorials you can get on that question is the ones provided on xcc utils homepage.. but; you can take a mod that comes with "xcc exe" aka mod launcher, open it with xcc and see the form in xcc how the mod is assambled. btw.. if you can't launch the mod, try "options/report", it contains some usefull info about "missing files" in your mod, as there shouldn't be anything wrong about the mod saving format, but with the files itself. if U can't use *.xmlf files they are corrupted or you're trying to open them with the wrong xcc utils version...
