Thread: Battle of the Bulge mod8 Nov 2013, 10:43 AM And if you love problems to solve as I do, there is one other - which may have something to do with the tex one - A weird detail in WBuilder references path: If you point any art_ambient objects or art_nature features with your mouse, the little windows pops up and tells you the path of the element (like: ebps \environment \art_nature \tree_l \pine_l_01) which is the case for all objects. Except Buildings. Here you will have something like: ebps \environment\art_ambient \buildings \normandy_rural \buildings\roughstone_2x1_chapel_01 \roughstone_2x1_chapel_01 (!!!) So it gives the reference twice! This works for any buildings and only them. This, even when the WB is open via the original CoH Mod without any other Mod installed. For me, this looks like a probable case of conflicts in various circumstances. Well. The first who get through the both enigmas win a bottle of Jack Daniel's!

Thread: Battle of the Bulge mod8 Nov 2013, 10:27 AM I am afraid I won't be the champion. I 've already checked the roof textures made in BotB via the Corsix viewer - which look like crispy snow and are really nice - the associed files are mostly generic for there's mainly 3 sorts of shapes : tiles roofs, slate roofs or metal for industrial. And yes, the reason why they are still unseen in WB or in game stays a pain for the mind. Walki from the EF team mentioned the same point as you did : "some buildings do not reference any texture files in their entire .rgm (hexcode) and still display as they should". On my modest side and concerning the changed textures (which work in game), the thing I've noticed is that, the tex are changed in multiple ways. Sometimes by a basic and single tex_ whatever_rgt, sometimes by a whatever_diffuse_rgt (bridge in that case)or sometimes by a bunch of them (plus decals). If we consider the HUGE ammount of different type of buildings in datas sharing those 3 main tex-files. Yes, this must be a bit.... Complicated. :-D But I enjoy problems. This preserves my old brain from Alzeimer! (And sorry to the room for that long post). In: Modding and Tools
Thread: COH1 Looking for info : How to paint texture via Corsix4 Nov 2013, 09:31 AM Yep. But I've got few connexion problems with this site by using hotmail. I'll have a look on the link provided by admin to solve that out first. Thanks anyway. I also got a plain reply on that snow subject via Moddb. In: Mapping Discussion
Thread: Units still able to cross river where bridge was located2 Nov 2013, 23:15 PM Could you precise what kind of bridge(type and number)is involved? For there are one or two a bit bugged. Yes, units could still cross the river when these bridges are destroyed. I am afraid the path is linked to the object( even destroyed) so I am not sure impass editor would serve. More of this, engineers can not rebuilt them. In: Mapping Discussion
Thread: COH1 Looking for info : How to paint texture via Corsix31 Oct 2013, 16:54 PM After having a look on BotB maps, cool that they've painted grove trees and pines in white (but not roofs?!!) I am a fan user of WB and working on snow maps. Would be great to import trees with snow and manage to paint house's roofs via Corsix. The point is how to set that BotB stuff in WB datas. For roofs, I 've got a short tuto linked to Corsix file concerning how to paint texture on existing elements but... Seems to be not enough detailed with a proper walk through (from how to import files to set the modified one in WB). Any suggestions? Thanks. In: Mapping Discussion

Thread: Hello from France26 Oct 2013, 16:27 PM Jump back to quoted post26 Oct 2013, 10:09 AMPepsi Hey, welcome ! I think, Major is pretty much of your age. He's from England. You're probably the oldest french one. Thus, I might know your daugther, which is awkward ! jking I should have a daughter first... Ahem... No... A wife first (then a daughter afterward). And she would have probably divorced by now in consideration of the time I spend on CoH. And who's Major?!.. He speaks french and seems to know me! In: New Members
Thread: Hello from France26 Oct 2013, 08:25 AM Hello, I am new here... A french 51 years old fan of CoH1 (am I the oldest?) Probably of CoH2 (cause I never really have the financial opportunity to access to winter hollydays). One consolation : you can here be a very bad boy and destroy the ski resort. Most of all, I am a fan of WorlBuilder! Cheers. In: New Members
Thread: Worldbuilder.. When?!26 Oct 2013, 08:12 AM Jump back to quoted post28 Aug 2013, 15:37 PMSpanky They will no doubt release it to the public, as they have done the same with DoW and vCoH aswell. I personally will spend my time on worldbuilder rather than playing the game. Then, I am not the only one... Welcome to the club! In: Mapping Discussion
Thread: Worldbuilding with WhiteFlash26 Oct 2013, 06:16 AM Many thanks to mister White Flash (from a 51 years old french CoH WBuilder fan). In particular for the way I 'll have now to reconsider ALL my work on Worldbuilder! For I most consider making a map from an ambiance/mood point of view (I'm an illustrator) Endless hours of work get suddenly out by the window. This is the way to learn. It took me years to find this helpfull site and I will have loads of questions on this WB subject! No french site equivalence by now. Superb article which brings me to the idea that if I missed the most of worldbuilding, I also understood few things by myself! I was impatient to get the CoH2 WB. Now I realise that I should first get back to the CoH1 one. There are few pics of my maps here: http://www.companyofheroes-france.com/index.php/topic/799-map-en-cour-qui-sy-connait-sous-corsix/ Hope we can chat about this soon! Many thanks again. In: Guides
