Scenarios list of Epic battles

[Pi-R]

Hi,
Sorry I must be missing something. But how can I get the columns Date, Side 1 and Side 2 being completed in the Scenarios list of Epic Battles? I guess something in text1. But even looking at other user created battles I cannot find it.

It is in fact in the Campaign.txt file.

Code: Select all

[Bagradas_C]
SIDE0 8
SIDE1 32
DATE 2745 // All dates start from 3000 BC
MAPX 496 // Pixel x location of battle in EpicMap_Ptolemy.dds
MAPY 676 // Pixel y location of battle in EpicMap_Ptolemy.dds

[Bagradas_R]
SIDE0 32
SIDE1 8
DATE 2745 
REVERSEOF Bagradas_C

You can find the list of SideIDs by looking at the IDS_SIDENAME strings in /data/text2.txt

The REVERSEOF line stops it from displaying the two versions of the scenario as separate entities.

You can find EpicMap_Ptolemy.dds in /Data/UI/Textures

Terrific Richard, you also answered the question that had fir my future planes when I will design my battles also or the opposite side: how to get them both on the same line.
