yes these are the files you want to edit

This is all new to me and I am trying to learn and it hard.

Ok thanks now I know, but where do I add the code you gave me in scar file? also do I delete all the text in the scar and just add this code to it, or do I just place it at the top/ bottom of scar text, and where do I add the '+ commander' code to win file the same top/bottom. or do it matter,

local function PopCap_OnInit()
for i = 1,World_GetPlayerCount()
do
local player = World_GetPlayerAt(i);
Player_SetPopCapOverride(player, 700);
end
end

Scar_AddInit(PopCap_OnInit)

In the win file at the top says 'name = no_win_condition"" do I edit the name to my win condition mod or just leave it!


And what is scar_file ="Data Scar/WinConditions/None.Scar" do I edit this name to my scar mod or leave it!


I wish member "eliw00d"" could update how to edit the scar and win files that would be great, I have seen his files but they are over 3 years old and COH2 have updated a few times it the same how to make a win condition mod year 2014 I understand it give you the basic ideal but sadly it don't help me who is trying to learn how to scar for the first time.

I want to say Thank you to RagnarTheGamer and eliw00d for the help so far

An update
I have just found a website that shows how to use the wizard mod builder oh my god now I know how the wizard creates the win and scar files so I didn't need open the COH2\Archives win and scar files, as I said before I am starting to learn the hard way.

I post the link here for other members

Anyway still need the help on the code please.

The .mod and .xml files go in your root folder when you create the WinConditionPack. The .win file goes in data/game/winconditions, while the .scar file goes in data/scar/winconditions. I would recommend watching the video in chunks, and follow along with your own folder/files.

Just take a look at https://github.com/eliw00d/example-win-condition-pack and that is how yours should look, with different names. Obviously, ignore the .gitattributes, .gitignore, and README.md as those are git/GitHub related.

in your video this file goes into the scar




Where do I put this code in my scar file top or bottom?

local function PopCap_OnInit()
for i = 1,World_GetPlayerCount()
do
local player = World_GetPlayerAt(i);
Player_SetPopCapOverride(player, 700);
end
end

Scar_AddInit(PopCap_OnInit)

And this goes into win on your video



+ commander is put in the win file ok but do I add a new line with notepad++

I meant the .mod and .xml. You can absolutely use the .win and .scar files because those are the ones created by the wizard...

So my mod 'MOD file' I just copied it and paste it in my data/game/winconditions and the XML document into the data/scar/winconditions


Is this part right?


So where do I put this in MOD File or XML?
local function PopCap_OnInit()
for i = 1,World_GetPlayerCount()
do
local player = World_GetPlayerAt(i);
Player_SetPopCapOverride(player, 700);
end
end

Scar_AddInit(PopCap_OnInit)

Also

+ commander


MOD file


XML file

no there will be only one "data" file

ok in my setup I have this

my games/company of heroes 2/mods/mod projects/british kings II/British Kings II Intermediate Cache/Intermediate Files/data

my games/company of heroes 2/mods/tuning/data/art/ui


Two 'Data" so where to put it please!

I have a link in the description of the video to the files you need: https://github.com/eliw00d/example-win-condition-pack

The wizard actually creates the two files if you specify locations for the win condition and scar files. I skipped that part but had the files ready because I was showing a more advanced way to set it up. I probably should have explained that part a little better.

You videos are good but for those that are new to modding coh2 like my self I wish you could have explain more, but thanks for the link


ok there is two win condition pack one is

Myfirstwinconditionpack.mod

another is

myfirstwinconditionpack.xml


do I need both?
