i'd love something like that too

[J Bytheway]

Off the top of my head: You'll need to add a unit to WAW_units.txt, a GL entry to WAW_uniticon.txt, a reference to the sprite to WAW_newsprite.txt (with the appropriate number), and a name to WAW_gl_str.txt. I think that's everything...

[Devil of Truth]

Please, please, please share your creation! (Did I remember to say please?)

[mapfi]

Hex's guide to modmaking lists every step that's needed to add a unit - you find it on his website
Cool idea!

[Ãskallin]

I'll share it if it will work.
oh and DoT you did remember to say please.




There are thirteen santas in iceland you guys have only one

[HuangShang]

? i didnt get that joke

[Talwyn]

I played with a cargo plane by just adding cargo data to a bomber

Drop Troops and then bomb Evil eh

Thought about changing it to a gunship and giving Bombard to it too

[Ãskallin]

i did that to but it didnt work i got loads of error messages like that i didn't fill out some fields in the unit
txt which is bulls***t

[Maquiladora]

Attach your WAW_units.txt to a post and someone can have a look. There may be some errors with the cargo stuff near the bottom.

[Immortal Wombat]

yeah, sounds like a missing, or extra { or } in there.

[HuangShang]

so will it work?

[The Big Mc]

Copy the bomber to the bottom of the unit.txt then go to the troop ship eatery and take the cargo data from that. Replace the one for the bomber with you one for the troop ship.

[Ãskallin]

I did exactly that before but thesame happend i'll trie again this evening

[The Big Mc]

all you need to replace is the line

cancary light air

be careful that your not getting rid of any
########

and you leave one spare line at the bottom.
