Units MOD for BA. How to add new units or replace old units?

Post by MoRLOK »

I often play BA with friends. More than 3 years. Bothered outdated design of robots. I can make new robots, but I can't write scripts (It isn't enough time for studying of scripts.).

Are there any lessons how to make or replace models in game?

Perhaps someone knows as to make such fashions and to replace all buildings and scripts on better models...

It is inspired

I played the version with such graphics. It is very difficult to distinguish robots. All of them identical. It is impossible to play.

Well,

If you just want to replace model, you replace the object in: spring/objects3d/

But it needs a script. Here's the wiki page about making scripts:
http://springrts.com/wiki/Animation-LuaScripting

If you replace a model with a very similar model you may be able to use old unit scripts. But then it must have same names of pieces and same amount of them. But you can edit those small changes in the script files to match the model ones.

If you want, send Beherith a PM, he is tending to the remodel efforts, I am sure that if you make new models for BA kbots, he will take a look at including them in BAR

The models are "complete" in the sense that all but two units have new models, but I'm sure behe would consider looking at other models too if they started appearing - certainly pm him if you are interested.
