TD modding questions
Subject description: An enchanted Td would be nice, not?
Hi ppl,
Some1 smart here should help me. I would like to create maps for TD but the xcc map editor's max map size is quite small.
- I would like to make the maximum size of a TD map larger. How can I do that?
My other wish is to use RA's terrain textures in TD. That's a hard thing I suppose, but not totally impossible. How can I do that?
- I would like to convert RA's snow terrain for use into TD, the bigger bridges and the other water terrain (like rock shore) elements.
I suppose converting these into Td is just the first part. Then making this elements useable in the xcc editor is necessary. Thats all folks!
Thanks QUICK_EDIT

Really... this has nothing to do with SHP Builder.

I believe they have the same file format, but I might be wrong. So, you just need to replace the TD stuff with RA stuff... Make sure you backup your TD before doing that. QUICK_EDIT
yea sorry about posting it here. Tell me where will be better.
First, why are you certain I cant change the maximum map size of TD?
Second, its not so simple. I want to use RA terrain with Td units, other palettes the first problem AND I want to use XCC editor to make maps for it! The hard part is that xcc editor just reading the specified elements of TD so if I add new ones xcc will not recognize. I'm sure this problem can be solved but I dont know how. Suggestions please QUICK_EDIT
You're right I tought about that as well! I would like to do that, but there is one big problem (for me) and this question is now bound to the Os shp builder. You know if I want to export TD construction yard for example instead of the place of RA CY the game will use RA palette. So the building's colors will not show up correctly. Are there any ways to solve this problem? Is os shp builder able to do that? Or shall I overwrite RA palette with TD palette somehow? (yea that will be the easier way but If I do that the terrain colors will not show up correctly) QUICK_EDIT
looks like you didnt understood me... I have already tried this! The terrain and everything else uses another color scale. This means if I overwrite the scales with TD scales the exported td units will show up correctly but everything else arent. And since I want to convert RA into TD cause of its new terrain abilities this is not an option. QUICK_EDIT
