Thread: Is there a List of Unit Icons?26 Dec 2016, 20:29 PM Trying to change a unit icon to something else, but there is no drop down or menu popup for unit icons "icon_name", so I have no idea what choices I have available. Is there a website or link to a list with images of all CoH2 unit icons? All I'm able to find is how to make custom icons, I don't want that, just want to use in-game icons. In: Modding and Tools
Thread: AEF Sniper Help with Targeting Please.25 Dec 2016, 23:20 PM Jump back to quoted post25 Dec 2016, 22:35 PMPlanet Smasher Did you manage to get a tracer effect and loud firing sound similar to the other sniper rifles? Just checked and yep it has the tracer and sniper "pop" sound. Interesting how it all came about, if I remember right... I just copied the soviet sniper squad over to the aef, slapped him in a building and done. But... my buddies like hey you know that's a russian sniper. yea so what. Well he wanted it to be us, so I just changed the icon and the character image to us Pathfinder. He didn't like that, cause the model was still russian in game model. oye.. So I pointed the squad file to use the pathfinder model, but then the gun wouldn't show up. It'd still shot but no actual gun. So I copied the soviet sniper weapon and pointed its model to the pathfinder carbine. Worked from there and my buddy was happy I added the code: <template_reference name="squadexts" value="sbpextensions\squad_action_apply_ext"> <list name="squad_entity_actions"> </list> <list name="actions"> <template_reference name="action" value="action\override_weapon_target_prereq_action"> <list name="requirement_table"> </list> <instance_reference name="weapon_to_override" value="" /> <uniqueid name="id" value="1073745832" /> <bool name="auto_attack_only" value="False" /> <bool name="persist_on_weapon_change" value="False" /> </template_reference> </list> </template_reference> Not sure how it works, is there something I'm missing?

Thread: AEF Sniper Help with Targeting Please.25 Dec 2016, 22:20 PM A while back before the Brit expansion came out, I made a US Sniper unit based on the pathfinder model, and created a sniper weapon. Now recently I've been going over my mod and I'd like to make the sniper ignore all vehicles, and only target Infantry. I've looked over the weapon, but don't see where I could add target type, same with the projectile. I've tried to add the "usf_vehicle_hold_fire_mp" but that does the reverse of what I want to do. Now I think I could make it "unit_type = infantry" BUT I don't really want it as an ability you toggle, I just want the sniper to target infantry by default (no ability, as in not taking up a UI Position) Any help please. In short: I'd like my Sniper to Target Infantry only all the time. In: Modding and Tools
Thread: CoH2 Mod Tools Error -124 Dec 2016, 14:21 PM Jump back to quoted post24 Dec 2016, 08:26 AMMr.Smith Speaking of cloning stuff.... Is there -any- way to do an automatic cleanup on my mods so that they reference the vanilla stuff, yet the vanilla stuff still gets overridden by my mod stuff? PS: From what I heard the latest hotfix also fixed the tools. Merry modding, everyone! Yes I've been wondering that for a while too. I'll make a change to an ability, then later say naw, and delete my cloned file, but it seams to break the squad whom uses it. In CoH modding tools the game would just reference the original file and all "modifications" would just be a pointer. Seams to be in CoH2 modding tools, the squad actually points to the new file structure instead of keeping the original games file then just use the cloned one "internally". In: Modding and Tools

Thread: CoH2 Mod Tools Error -123 Dec 2016, 02:54 AM Just started to get "..failed with exit code -1" now. I have no idea what this is, and it just started today. What's causing this, how do I fix it? I've gone an re-verified the Tools cache. Any way this editor keeps a backup? Can I extract the SGA file to get a working mod? Here is my Attrib file.

Thread: (Mr.Smith's) Quality of Life mod20 Dec 2016, 14:25 PM To Prioritise vehicle now only affects the main gun. Do you have to make a file for each tank and specify the tanks gun? Because null just blankets the whole unit. Can't it just be set to HardPoint_01? I'd like to make Prioritize Armor work the same, but not if I have to make an ability for each one.

Thread: Ambulance Spawn Medic Squad when Toggled15 Dec 2016, 23:30 PM Hey all, trying to get the AEF ambulance to spawn a Medic Squad when it uses it's healing toggle. Now hold a second. I need this medic squad to be uncontrollable, just like the Healing Stations. I'd like to press the ability and have a single usf medic pop out and he can just stand there or run around in the radius (20) healing units. I already tried a few things, I added the spawn_squad to the ambulance_heal ability of the ambulance, but that just spawns a full medic squad that I can control, AND if I press it again, it spawns another. Can't figure out how to have them disappear when I toggle it off. So I tried using the repair_station_ext from the brit forward hq tent, as they have an upgrade that spawns ai controlled sappers. I added the code to the ambulance, but couldn't figure out how to trigger the activate_extension_action in the ambulance healing toggle ability. So lastly I looked up the healing station itself, reinforcement_point_healing_aura but can't make heads or tails of it. I think it's the healing for Observation Buildings. Anyway, any help would be great. Just want to have a single Medic unit pop out of the ambulance when I toggle the ability, and disappear when I toggle it off. In: Modding and Tools
Thread: Is there any point to mod CoH 2?15 Dec 2016, 16:07 PM I wish the mod tools would allow you playing the game, and being able to directly add or change any element via UI. Click on Tank Depot, click on a slot, add, select Pershing, done. Right click Pershing icon, edit, change anything about Pershing. All using games Icons and UI. Oh I can dream....
