Help IceCC

[Death505]

Hey ive seen the icecc faq and i can do basic stuff. I found out how to do random attacks but what are the weapon numbers for differnt stuff like a vultue would every so often shoot a rocket automaticaly or somthing whats the number?

[matefkr]

if you talk about the useweapon "weaponnumber" then i think you have to use the weapons.dat id (i think it had beend described in the icc help file or manual.pdf or whatever).

[Death505]

I found out were it is.. but now i got another problem.. i am doing this.. i go to last line in marine rpt attack before nocode thing and put tihs

__1e_condjmp 75 Grenade
Then i do this below last code thing and put this

Grenade:
wait 1
useweapon 4
wait 1
gotorepeatattk

and when i go to compile says error...

[Holocaust]

The ID number you put in has to match the ID number of the weapon that the script will execute in Arsenal 3/DatEdit.

Check the ID numbers in the A3/DE lower right corner to see if it's the same.

I'm old school, so I don't know if the new ID numbers in DE match with the originals in A3.

and when i go to compile says error...
What error do you get? This would be very helpful in figuring out what is wrong. And if ur using the GUI try the command line, it is often much more helpful with error messages. If you don't know how to use the command line version:
go to start>run then tpye cmd
type cd C:\icecc (or wherever icecc is installed)
type icecc -m -o "C:\icecc\iscript.bin" (or whatever u want the outputfile to be) C:\icecc\iscript.txt (or whatever ur text file is named)

[Death505]

it says somthing like due to synex errors terminating.

after the walking code is too long PLZ HELP

[Death505]

Bump Please Help I Need To Know!

[Holocaust]

Relax.

Lemme see what I can find what's wrong.
Normally, the errors I get are errors concerning the spelling of some of the opcodes/commands.

I've never come across a syntax error before though, perhaps there's something wrong with your IceCC file, try downloading from another site/source.

Personally, I don't like using the useweapon method from random projectile attacks. Use the 2 weapon method, it'll work better.

[Death505]

Huh what you mean 2 weapon?

also i dled IceCC from starcraft.org.

[Holocaust]

As in, giving the unit an air attack in DE, making a new header for the unit in IceCC, and setting it up so the random code jumps to the air attack.

I'm way too lazy to into detail. I'll post an example iscript if you need.

[Death505]

Well ... could someone just post what the finished code should look like for a marine like in the faw plz i dont wanna do a diff way i wanna do it the random way i just dont want it to error..but thanks holo..

This script causes the attacking Marine to randomly shoot his Air weapon, which is his secondary.

[Death505]

Still error should i reinstall?

[Holocaust]

Yes, definitely

[Death505]

Where should i reinstall from now?

[Death505]

bump....

[Holocaust]

Don't bump your threads buddy, it's still visable from the top page.
Reinstall at the same place, in your C Drive.

[Death505]

did.. says where i saved the script, 190 error final instructions does not terminate icecc error aborted due to synax error in my spot

[Death505]

and when i try to re-open the file in icecc to see problem says... cannot load header file.

[Holocaust]

Try opening the file directly instead of opening it from IceCC.
Use IceCC to compile only.

[Death505]

says that when i wanna compile it to a iscript.bin

[Holocaust]

Attach your script, I'll try compiling it.

[coolpotatoes]

Plauge:

useweapon 4

gotorepeatattk

I think this is ur problem. The last line in the iscript needs to either go somewhere else or end. While gotorepeatattk should route it elsewhere, the compiler doesn't seem to recognize that for me. Try adding a goto MarineGndAttkRpt that should produce the same effect as a gotorepeatattk.
Plauge:

yeah that fixed it :cool: I just compiled it, haven't tested it as I don't know what its suppose to do:) But here is the text file, and the .bin merged with the default.

[Ktan]

Death505, if you are adding something to the thread then use the edit button to do so. Also, stop bumping your threads.

Ah yes, I completely forgot about that.

+rep to you for remembering.

You haven't been paying real attention to my posts, have you?

Look at page 2, 2 weapon method.

[Death505]

haha i didnt know that was it was..but i have a question what if a unit has already has air do i put attack26 and what if it dosnt have a ground/air attack will it still work?

[rubberd91]

attack26 means the unit will choose what to attack with. In otherwords, when it attacks air, the unit will use its air attack, when it attacks ground, the unit will use its ground attack.

attack25 1 means that the unit will only use the ground attack.
attack25 2 means that the unit will only use the air attack.

And if you want a unit to attack that doesn't normally attack, just go here: http://www.warboards.org/showthread.php?t=19125

This page will also help with other numerous questions...

Here's a tutorial page that I made:
