i checked FF3 DB for comparsion.. CT 132 is Headquarters.. but it looks like a set of radio towers in ObjEditor virew. NOT a building complex. CT 562 is Radio Tower 1. it has no features, nothing in ObjEditor view. i changed wrong number(232) to correct one(562), ran [obj functions] again.. the numb...

Malc, have you tried with high-thrust ac like F-22 or EF2000? or test with high-lift ac like An-2? or test with VSTOL ac like Harrier/AV-8, or MV-22? or, try edit ac parameter with F4browse, reduce it's weight, fuel capacity, remove all loadouts.. see if AI and human can fly it. if no go.. then got ...

tweak file 0916.
- tweak obj linking.
- use no-river THR.
- increase Wakkana priority to 99.

= jpn GU offensive lasting for a while, then became consolidation for days. GUs refused to move further north.

ccc

- run cam to Day 5, no big progress. Blue GUs hold positions at Bifuka, two armour GUs stayed slightly north of Bifuka- won't move further to Wakkana. Blue turned into cosolidation or defensive, no offensive. - i checked saved cam, found blue initiative and supply values were lowered - so i manually...

ccc

- add more obj to help matching obj-linking lines on roads - and reducing move cost. - move more GUs to roads. - in TacEdit>Team info page, increase Japan/US initiative value to 99. ( i aslo try 255.. dunno what the maximal value for initiative) - in TacEdit>Team priority page, set first few priorit...

ccc

Default korea tiles work well in default campaigns - so i assumed some path deviation is tolerable.. when road definition packed into THR, it shouldn't affect 2d War. OTOH, GUs can move over those terrain tile in 3d world.. few misaligned path definition shouldn't stop their movement. of course, for...

Sean has updated his site with Japan SAM site info!!

http://geimint.blogspot.com/2010/08/jap ... twork.html

i noted Hokkaido got five EW sites, three Chun-SAM and two PAC-3 sites near Sapporo.
the rest counts on short-range mobile SAMs/MANPADS.

PLEAZ.............FORGET about "ROADS\RailLine's etc......." they do not MATTER!!!!!!! Think Path and Tile Type only!!!

All falcon modders kept looking for some campaign-making guidelines.. but there's no such document. To collect useful info, here i list my cam-tweaking findings - hope other campaign-modders post theirs too. 1. for Ground war, road system must be checked- espeically the main combat routes. check wit...

Just reviewed this thread...phew, i should have read it. the team setting is hard-coded..so, US always be Team 1. first Red opponet should use Team 6, then the rest of Red opponents use Team 4, 5. 0 XX 1 US 2 ROK 3 Japan 4 CIS 5 PRC 6 DPRK 7 Gorn Dunno if we set teams as those in default korea help ...

i can't remember if i ever sent files to you. no backup here. with more understanding of terrain-cam interaction, checking main combat route/tiles won't take long. I ran cam at 64, CIS won't take offensive. Japan remained static/ defnsive. no ground engagement. then i moved some Japan armour GUs to ...

ccc

err.. who's doing the DB now?
Do you succeed in adding 3d stuff to DB now? screenshots?

ccc

Kurile was one of those theaters that just repacking it was enough. I don't think I edited pretty much anything, so the answer is no.

i see.. then my road tweak is lost.

You can change the team with TCL.

then re-link all of them?

ccc

two questions..

1. does this installer include my TerrainView road tweak files?
viewtopic.php?f=65&t=21867

2. is there any easy way to change Japan to Team 2(ROK), CIS to Team 6(DPRK)? the Force ratio and level diagrams won't show Japan and CIS info.

ccc

YJ-91/Kh-31 can be loaded on H-6G bomber now..dunno if it's anti-ship or anti-radar, or both variants.
The latest image indicated that the locally produced Kh-31A (YJ-91A?) has entered the service with PLAN H-6G anti-ship missile carrier.

i changed Azerbajan and Armenia to Team 6. South osseetia obj to Team 7. the cam test still triggered "Russian joins the war" at the first second of war..wierd, the trigger obj is owned by Team 7, but treated as it was captured by Team 1/2. BTW, the team 0 and team 7 have the same nation name in Tac...

I changed south Ossetia/seperaist state to Team 1-US(owner/control) for test.. - i think.. US-Georgia alliance is hard-coded . US is Team 1, Georgia is team 2(=ROK). so, when i set Tskhinvali(trigger obj) owned/controlled by US, it immediately trigger " Russia joins the war " event in the begining o...

thanx Dr X. you are right.. i turned on obj icons and found Azerbijan is white color = it's the same color of Team 0 !!
