"General" AI Unit? Man in suit AI Unit?

[BLSmith2112 0]

I downloaded an editor add-on pack and still cannot find the OFPOR or RAX "General"... or the Man in the Tuxedo NPC. Where can I find these?

I appreciate it bunches!

You don't need an addon for that at all.

Just place a civilian unit on the map, save it and open the mission.sqm in a text editor.

Search for the unit which shall be the General for example and replace the

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">vehicle="Civilian";

with

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">vehicle="NorthPrimeMinister";

save the file and load the mission in the ArmA editor again.

Unit classnames which are available but not visible in the editor:

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">King

FieldReporter

Anchorman

NorthPrimeMinister

Why did they not incorporate this into the games editor? Rather than hide them?

Thanks man

Long story short I tried everything.

1. I opened ArmA's Editor.

2. Loaded an empty mission.

3. Put 2 People.

---A. Civilian (Civilian)

---B. West Soldier (SoldierWB)

---C. Named Civilian "A111111111111" for easier find in mission.sqm.

4. Saved the Mission as "NewUnits"

5. Went into "New Units Folder"

6. Opened Mission.sqm in editor.

7. Replaced the civilian name with "NorthPrimeMinister" (forgive the spacing on the brackets)

<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">

class Groups

{

items=2;

class Item0

{

side="CIV";

class Vehicles

{

items=1;

class Item0

{

position[]={13880.434570,29.821951,9678.390625};

azimut=186.570999;

id=37;

side="CIV";

vehicle="NorthPrimeMinister";

leader=1;

skill=0.600000;

text="A111111111111";

};

};

};

8. Saved the Mission.sqm.

9. Alt-tabbed back into ArmA

10. Saved the mission again just in case...

11. Previewed the mission

12. The AI Still looked like Civilian

13. I went back into mission.sqm

14. The "Civilian" name was there instead of "NorthPrimeMinister"..

15. It resaved it with Civilian's class name!

What can I do? Thanks so far!

DON'T save the mission in the editor after you have edited mission.sqm! It saves that file with the data you have in the editor at the moment. Load it instead and the unit is there. Be warned that if you edit the unit again in the editor, it will change back to another unit.

10. Saved the mission again just in case...

You shouldn't do this.

The mission was cached with previous data (civilian, instead of prime minister) and after saving it reverted the change.

EDIT: Too late .

I'll check "10." out in a bit. Trying to work on this scene for this movie I'm making. (Trying to appeal less boring in my films )

Edit:

Save Mission.

Edit the Mission.sqf

Save the Mission.sqf

Then RELOAD the mission

Ah Thanks millions yall!
