Additional bridges

Ixonoclast · Posted: Wed Aug 27, 2008 11:14 pm Post subject: Additional bridges

Is it possible to add additional bridges?

And if so, can we edit the strength of the bridge or even how much weight it supports?

I'm working on wooden bridges, and it would be awesome if they were easily destroyed, and could collapse if heavy units crossed them.

Hah, sorry, its not, you can only replace.

And before anyone asks, i have looked at the code and there is no way i am adding them.

Too bad. I guess I'll use them as pieces of terrain then.

Thanks for the fast response. Saves me some precious time aye.

Interpretation: Catastrophic combination.

Estimated Result: Destruction of a batallion of modders in a bridge collapse.

Nice tiles, shame about the engine limitations...

Roadrunner, random question, as your humans are imperium troopers do they get rhinos or Leman-Russ tanks?

Chimera transports and Leman-Russies.

Rhino's are for SPESS MARIENZ.

It's not an engine limitations that can't be worked out but it involves a lot of code work. This was pulled off in RA2/YR. But the guy who did it moved on after he did the initial work. And we thought it was complete just to find out there where still more problem when we released the TX with the train bridges. And since PD did not know what he did he had to disable the code for it to fix some other problems. Sad

Hmm, what version of RockPatch was that in? And what where the errors...

I will have to dig around For the version It been a long time.
The errors, things like crazy iven and other units would enter the bridge hut but the bridge would not blow up. Some time the engineer would not work. After the bridge was rebuild units could not cross all the way to the other side, they would stop in the middle some where. Also it had an intermitted conflict with the other bridges, that’s why PD finally disabled it. That is some of the thing off the top of my head, it been a long time.

Mkay, would be worth a look on the TS side.

DJB · Posted: Thu Aug 28, 2008 9:40 pm Post subject:

this post has some of the stoff but not all of it. Aslo it is RA2 so for the TS the file would be a bit smaller. http://forums.renegadeprojects.com/showthread.php?tid=983

The rock version was 1.05 or 1.07

I will get the code for a TS tile.

Oh wow, i just noticed something...

The exe contains a basic or defualt set of bytes that resemble that of the TMP format. (creating the diamond shapes)

Also, what is the Has Damaged Artwork, this never had a effect in my test, and the radar colours seem to be ignored.

Has Damaged is for the bridges when they are Damaged

The radar colours is for the mini map radar display top of the side bar.

For each tile cell there are two sets of diamond shapes hex code one for color and one for z-data. also the extra image also has two sets of code for color and z-data. but the extra image is not restricted to a size like the tile cell is.

Ah i see, interesting stuff.

When i get some time ill look into the code Smile

You sort of learn this stuff when you make marble set for the map editor. I have to go so I will see you again when you post.
