Well i'm trying to get the features of ETS to work but none of them actually works, i've done everything the MDK says and launched the game in Multiplayer Debug Mode, i've changed "MouseCursors" to "ActionTypes" but nothing works like it should. The Superweapons just recharge..

I'm using the Free TS download, since there's a scratch on pretty much all of my Tiberian Sun CDs and i'm playing with my own little personal mod, which never caused any IEs or anything.

Anybody know how to get ETS to work? If it even ever worked?

some stuff I could get working easily, other stuff I couldn't figure out. Perhaps post what your trying to do so the more experienced modders can help you.

Can you please post a screenshot example? And tell me what you did.

And i'm trying to get all of the features in the "MDK" to work. I'm 100% sure i've done everything right, but none of the superweapons work. I've just changed the Temple of Nod's Superweapon to Meteor Shower and Spy Sat, but they just recharge. And i'm pretty sure the "AACombat", "Upgrade" and "Tertiary and Quartiery" tags don't work either (I've tried that out too).

I never tryed the upgrade super but aacombat, tertiary and quartiery all work. i can get you examples but not atm as i have exams to worry about.

spysat super should work as stated in the mdk, i think as do ter, quad and aacombat the latter of which you need a quick hand to select other aircraft and the weapon also needs an aa tag on it

Okay, well i gave the Orca Fighter, Harpy and Banshee the AACombat tag, and their weapon projectiles also have "AA=yes" but they don't attack other aircraft, or Jumpjet Troopers. I've only tried getting my Harpy too force fire on the ground an another one force fire on the first harpy, but it refuses to attack.

I'm pretty sure ETS doesn't work for me.

Well if ets isnt working try the download, I had lots of problems with the ETS installer

These should all work.

Right looking at one of my mods you can try this.

Code:
[APACHE]
...
AACombat=yes

[HarpyClaw]
...
Projectile=Invisible2

[Invisible2] (i think this was a clone of invisible, its only used solely by the Harpy as it was an attempt to make it more usfull aa an anti-air unit than the orca
...
AA=yes

you might need a quick hand to target other aircraft as they dont do it automaticaly

As for superweapons, have a look at these they all work and there are examples of different mouse cursors.

Code:
...
7=SpySatSpecial
8=StealthSpecial
9=DonateMoneySpecial
10=MeteorShowerSpecial
11=RepairSpecial     
12=CommandoSpecial

...

[SpySatSpecial]
Name=Spy Sat
RechargeTime=20
Type=SpySat
SidebarImage=RADRICON
AutoActivate=yes

[StealthSpecial]
Name=Stealth Field upgrade
IsPowered=false
RechargeTime=7.5
Type=Upgrade
Action=Clocking
SidebarImage=BATRICON
UpgradeType=CLOAK
UpgradeRadius=3
UpgradeValue=1.0

[DonateMoneySpecial]
Name=Account Hack
RechargeTime=6
Type=Money
SidebarImage=SILOICON
Money=1000
AutoActivate=yes

[MeteorShowerSpecial]
Name=Meteor Shower
RechargeTime=14
Action=Meat
Type=MeteorShower
SidebarImage=METRICON
MeteorsNumber=5     

[RepairSpecial]
Name=Field Repair
IsPowered=True
RechargeTime=5
Type=Upgrade
Action=AreaHeal
SidebarImage=MEDIICON
UpgradeType=HEAL
UpgradeRadius=2
UpgradeValue=2.0

[ComandoSpecial]
Name=Mutant Commandos
RechargeTime=8
Action=DropAction
Type=DropPod         
SidebarImage=MUTCICON
DropPodObjectFirst=MUTANT2
DropPodObjectSecond=MWMN2
DropPodMaximum=6
DropPodMinimum=4

...

[ActionTypes];Mouse Cursors
Clocking=329,16,4,516,-1,12345,12345
MEAT=269,10,4,-1,12345,12345
AreaHeal=150,20,4,516,-1,12345,12345
DropAction=279,20,4,516,-1,12345,12345

clocking is the power off? mouse cursor
cant remember
heal area is the engineers repair building cursor
Drop is the same as the droppod one

quad and tertiary weapons do work i remember testing them as for that i have not managed to fuly test them so far.

Hope this has been of some help, heck i forgot how much i missed this part of modding i should realy dust of BoB and realise an ETS beta version while im waiting for the HP Very Happy

I can post the superweapon code if I still have it.

And if anyone can document what's wrong with the ETS documentation, I'll do a full rewrite like I did with NPatch.

I think its the "ETSLauncher" EXE file that doesn't work, the EXE he sent me made all of the features work, and i don't think there are any more errors in the MDK than writing "MouseCursors" when its actually supposed to be "ActionTypes".

But i must say, it feels alittle sloppy. And none of the Firestorm Cutscenes work only the Tiberian Sun ones Confused. But other than that everything works like it should, no IEs so far Smile.
