Thank you again for the flag.

If I want to install this into my game...Do I treat this as a building?
Can I copy and paste the french flag section in rulesmd and edit the code to fit this dutch flag? And i also have to edit the artmd?
And then put all the files in the RA2 folder.

because i did this and nothing happened.
Not even the cameo appeared.

My artmd code:
[canlfgl]
Cameo=nldicon
Normalized=yes
Remapable=no
Foundation=1x1
Height=8
NewTheater=no
ActiveAnim=canlfgl_a
ActiveAnimZAdjust=-100
DemandLoad=true
OccupyHeight=2

My rulesmd code:
[cangfgl]
UIName=Name:Dutch Flag
Name=Dutch Flag
Cameo=nldicon
TechLevel=1
BuildCat=Tech
Prerequisite=GACNST
Adjacent=8
Owner=French
RequiredHouses=French
Strength=20
Insignificant=yes
Nominal=yes
;RadarInvisible=yes
Points=5
Armor=steel
Explosion=TWLT070,S_BANG48,S_BRNL58,S_CLSN58,S_TUMU60
MaxDebris=0
Selectable=yes
;IsBase=no
BaseNormal=no ;psst....IsBase isn't a Rules flag
Sight=6 ; UC base values
ClickRepairable=yes
CanBeOccupied=no
MaxNumberOccupants=0
DistributedFire=no
DamageSound=BuildingMetalDamaged
DieSound=BuildingMetalDamaged

Can anyone help me?

1-) You need to add CANLFGL to under [BuildingTypes].

2-) Art and rule name should match. Make rule name [CANLFLG] too and use upper case on names.

3-) Changing BuildCat= to combat would be better. It makes them shown under defence menu. I put flags there in my mod.

4-) Also you need to add Name:DutchFlag to RA2MD.csf. XCC Mixer have a CSF (String Table) editor in it. Open it from Launch>XCC String Table Editor>Red Alert 2 Yuri's Revenge or use Open.. there and select file yourself.

Ok, I made a little progress.
I changed all the names to capitals.
I added the string table.

But...
I can build the flag, but it is invisible.
Also the cameo does not appear. I did everything the same I did with normal units, so it should be working but it isnt.

You need to add code of animation too. Copy a vanilla flags one like CAGEFGL_A. This is also in artmd.ini.

You also need to add the name of anim , CANLFGL_A, under [Animations] on Rulesmd.ini.

It worked!!
I have really done allot of trial and error, but finally it worked.
I think I have rebooted the game almost 100 times to see all the effects that my programming was doing.
I made so many mistakes and learned so much.

Thank you my friend, thank you very much!
It is nice to see that after all this time there are still people willing to help out a freekin noob!
