If you build a skirmish map, do you have to program in skirmish AI/AI movements or anything? Or is it just a case of making the map and putting in player start points e.t.c

you can put in way points this will make the ai stronger, but I think they can fight without waypoints just not as well.

Edit ok you do need to set way points and things.

nah not yet, also where do you put tiberium?

im still finding it extremely frustrating to do, for some reason when i do water it looks really really crap, as if parts of it are missing etc.

place object > bynativetype > neutral > misc_mnatural > tiberium field

right you don't need to place waypoints ect for ai, you just need to go

edit > player list > add skirmish
 
well this is p***ing the living hell out of me, water doest show properly and i have no idea to set where players start, i do what you say, i put 4 waypoints, then right click to de select then go to left click on the waypoint to set it to palyer start, but it just adds another way point.

need to raise the water level and/or lower the alpha depth number.

worked out bridges,

place object > bynativetype > civilian > structure > Bridge (1,2,3)

place then swap to pointer and move about, it's very weired just play about.

that means you haven't deselected properly, click the pointer button, top left, then draw a box around the way point, that will select it's properties.

ok like you i have worked out how to do the bridge, but when doing it over water, water coveres the bridge :confused:
when you first place it the end needs to be on land and where you want one end, also you might need to lower the water level a little.
 
ok seem to understand it a bit more now, also no if you wanna do a good detailed map, then its gonna take a while lol.

Do you know how you get it in game? Ive saved it but its not appearing.

edit - found out what's happening for some reason it stops at 99% transfer.

Hey acidhell how do you get all your quicklaunch icons on the top row and the windows on the bottom row of your taskbar ?

see the little dashed line by the icons on the left hand side just click and hold down, then move either one, they'll flip places.
 
Don't you hate n00b team mates doesn't matter how strong you are if you have crap team meats.

can you add friends when not online?

If so what's everyones online name.

Mines the same as here.
 
Im having issues with the radar screen in the game of a WorldBuilder map, the map radar preview just shows as black, with the coloured unit blobs on.

Is there anyway to fix this? i.e build a small thumbnail of the map into the level or something :confused:
