Fast paced Warfare

[S1AY3R 0]

Hi there guys

Is it possible to make a warfare mission that only has about 4-5 towns close together? I can only play singleplayer and would realy like to engage my AI opponent early in the game cuz i cant save?

Please can somebody tell me how to do this?

Would be very much appreciated

Thanks

Had good games in the more fast paced combat in cti central maps from flashpoint so combat on smaller scale shouldnt be 2 bad.

However with the current respawn system in towns I am pretty sure that you are better off playing berzerk or something similar.

Nah, that doesnt do it for me...

Would realy like to make a maximum of 5 towns to capture

Please any advice where to start ?

Do you have any experience with the ingame editor?

If so just un-pbo the warfare addon.

Then move either the 16 or 32 player version to-

'my documents/other profiles/missions folder.

Open the mission up in editor,then-

eg:-

say the depot and camps of the town 'Arcadia' move them to a position you want.

Same for the other depot's / camps

Thats the basics of it really

Thanks for getting me started.

Do i have to move them or delete them?

I deleted most of the objects in most towns just have 5 left

now i spawn without a base?

I left 2 spawn flags?

Any help plz?

Personally i would've just moved them.

You would probably need more than 2 repsawn makers?

You could just place most of the markers near where u want the possibillity of spawning?

One other thing-make sure in editor that you click on the 'Markers' tab.

To show the corisponding markers that go with each town so to move them aswell!

Is there anyway you can do it?

I only want the 5 towns at the bottom of this warfare version of Sara lite? And to let both spawn opposite side off the towns?

When i start moving stuff and try to play it or save and play it nothing happens. no vote screen no building no nothing?

Any suggestions sorry for being a noob

but your help is very appreciated.

Thanks alot

There shouldnt be a prob with deleting camps/depots afaik?

But to be on safe side-start again!

Just remove one towns camps/depot and markers and see what happens?

Keep all the spawn makers(blue flags).

But place half of them at one place and other have at another place?

But bare in mind there has to be a set/enough distance between the opfor and bluefor bases so to spawn,that could be where your problem lies?

[S1AY3R 0]

lol i think thats my problem, cuz im testing them a few hundred meter away from each other

[ck-claw 1]

Just well could be that!

Would having the base spawns alot further apart be that much of a problem?

Once both bases have spawned it wouldnt take to long before your all heading towards them 5 towns for a battle

Hey man i realy appreciate your help

Ive got it working thanks alot

One thing do u know how i can replace the current us and opfor soldiers with new addon skins? The new skins only appear in the editor but i want them to spawn with warfare? any suggestions that wud be my last question

[ck-claw 1]

yes i do but cant remeber atm!  

Will get back to ya!

Edit:-

Got to the mission folder,then common/config/barracks

Edit the 2nd line on each class to the class name of the soldier you want to replace!

Hmmm,

When i export to mp missions and want to play it under lan

it says no script loaded?

And no winning condition is displayed at the bottom?

[ck-claw 1]

Did you buy any chance save/export to MP under a new name?

[S1AY3R 0]

i exported as same name?

sorry for replying so late

[ck-claw 1]

Hmm strange,not sure what that could be?

Sure the mission folder has all the warfare folders/scripts in ?

[S1AY3R 0]

Ive got it right thanks alot!

I just copied all the files in the pbo to the new mission folder and then went to editor and exported as mp mission and it works

Thanks to u mate!

The ICED version of Warfare would be a great place to start! The action begins right away, with the AI at the next town which start to invade your base. There are a lot more armored vehicles and the AI is a bit tougher.

Hi Tedbell

Wouldnt that mean that the ai only attacks your base?

Would that mean you dont capture towns and no urban warfare?

Im just asking? Please enlighten me.

Playing the Schmalfelden version of Warfare might suit you...it's a few more towns than you are suggesting, something like 9 or 10 towns. But it's a much smaller map and the towns are all quite close together, so you do encounter the OPFOR quite quickly.

[tedbell 0]

The AI attacks your base, because there is a firefight for the first town, and they convene at your location. If you ignored them at the closest town, they would take a bit more time to attack your base.

But for singleplayer, the action is close and quick and more challenging.
