um, no offence, but i think two unit customization mods is enough. three seems just horribly redundant...

[Dezzick]

well sorry for insulting you, i just wanted to have something to do, :(

[Nahotnoj]

well sorry for insulting you, i just wanted to have something to do, :(
what?

you didnt insault me, it's just that we dont need another customization mod, IMO.

[Dezzick]

Nevermind, i just wanted something to do.

[Aqo]

hey what with my garbage ship?

oh never mind I'll create it myself...

[Dezzick]

I can't change consume to only mech-air, it's hardcoded like the other upgrades :cry:

[Aqo]

wa???

all you've got to do is enter arensal3 weapons editor, choose "other", than choose consume and in the hit boxes choose Air and 0*000(8... if I'm not mistaken).
you can change carriers race in Arensal's unit editor, change speed in flingy, ect...
memgraft and some more to make buttons...

the only prob is painting all angles for the ship,

but it's my problem now :)

[Dezzick]

thanks, (so i can now start to lean a bit more, i don't know that much about the patts which are hardcoded)

[Aqo]

http://img29.exs.cx/img29/8317/Consume.jpgoh wait,

first of all it's not 8 after all, it's a combination of 4 and 10.

2ndly, it will still give you 50 energy and not money,

but you can prolly change this in ICE... I'll check...

[Dezzick]

I was thinking that, when i asked if the upgraded speed for the scout could be changed, sd said it was hardcoded :cry:

[Aqo]

well... it's not...

[Dezzick]

Where Can U Change It

[Aqo]

I've already said, Arensal 3 -> flingy, give me a sec and I'll give you a screenshot.

[Dezzick]

tried the flingy, I set scout speed to 6000 and when i upgraded it i espected it to go faster, i checked the flingy for an upgraded scout, but there was none. :cry: also, i need some more ideas, i've only got 2 people on this thread, 1s compaining and the other has posted a unit.

[StealthyDeath]

When I say it's hardcoded, it usually means it's hardcoded. You can change the normal speed, but after you upgrade it, it will revert to the speed designated by the upgrade.

[Dezzick]

nevermind Now, Any ideas people? :)

[terranfreak13]

can u do new units? if so...;)

Name: Covert Strikeman
Damage: 15 Sniper Rifle +10 every upgrade
Hit Points: 60
Armor: 1 +1 every upgrade
Abilities: Snipe (basically nuke that does damage to one unit w/ half time between authorization and having commenced) energy:50
Unit Energy: 150
Researchable Abilities: Lockdown, Personnel Cloak
Cost: 75 minerals, 125 gas
Build At: Factory

If not... just make it the ghost

[Aqo]

omg, making completly new units take years!
you can just take a unit and change any state it have and leaving no sign for what it was, but creating a completly new one, too damn hard.

but what I can say bout that unit of yours:
1. you can take for example stukovs ghost, create new graphic for shiper and give it to him (if you think it's necessary), settings are ez it'll take 2 secs, about energy, sorry that's imposible, too hardcoded, when a unit has enery it has 200, and can be upgraded only with 50 more to 250.
making the ability is ez too, but it'll take time to make the buttons for it everywhere (research button, use button, upgrade button(?)).

your unit is pretty much a ghost with new ability instead of nuke and new name and settings.
be more creative, remember, you're almost un-limited with mods, you can do really crazy things, don't feel bounded to the current sc limits.

[Dezzick]

I revived this thread because i want the project finished, i only have 3 ideas and i need some more to get anyw are. :)

[The_Maker]

No offense but, what is it with EVERY BODY and snipers in Starcraft? Stealthy Death already made one! :P Stealthy (http://www.geocities.com/stealthydeath24/customs.html]Stealthy)s Sniper Mod

[Dezzick]

No Spam, just ideas !!! :mad:

Stats:same
Attack: ground: low powered gauss rifle. air: low powered nuetron flare
Gas:150
Minerals:100
Build Time: slightly faster than before.
Movement: A little faster than before.

[hidiho2]

Deezed, heres some advice to get more people to get units, wait until SiKawticpaladin is done with his custom, then more people will go for yours, so why don't you just forget about this thread until SiKawticpaladin finishes it. You don't have to, but maybe it'll get you more units.

[The_Maker]

No Spam, just ideas !!! :mad:

That wasn't spam it was a question...
But this is... http://instagiber.net/smiliesdotcom/contrib/ruinkai/spam1.gif
But any how I highly suggest you take hidihos suggestion and wait for the other mods to be finished THEN start yours.

[Dezzick]

Since nobody is working on there other projects now, i declare this one offically open!

[Sikawtic]

Yeah, I won't be finishing mine, at least, not in the near future. KT was right when he said theres no motivation behind these... but maybe, Deezed can be the one to finally complete one. (I believe BST might have finished something similiar to this... but... we won't count that ^_^)

[Dezzick]

My motivation is to create a brilliant mod!
