Thread: tp_fence - How is the orientation of the entity determined?7 Jan 2021, 16:05 PM making something a fence allows it to be constructed in a line - the orientation depends on which end the user starts at and drags to. tp_tunnel is unused, either a leftover from cut content or maybe something from dawn of war.

Thread: CoH 2 Models13 Apr 2020, 07:27 AM I dont think so. The skeleton/rigging of the models are different, and not to mention the art-style is somewhat different aswell. You'd need to put it through a proper rework to use them. In: Modding and Tools
Thread: Could CoH 2 do with a cleanup patch?13 Apr 2020, 07:25 AM I'd like to also see a fixup for singleplayer. Alot of features that were removed or tweaked for multiplayer have really borked the singleplayer campaign. Most of the formations, squad-ai, weapon balancing and even some abilities are either broken or missing entirely. In: COH2 Gameplay

Thread: The development of the modding tools18 Feb 2020, 15:55 PM 1) How long did it take to develop the modding tools for CoH2? A few months, maybe more. Most of the tools were developed with CoH1, so porting it to CoH2 should have been an easy process. 2a) Did Relic build modding support into the core foundation of the game, or add it after the game was complete? It was built into the core foundation of the game. Almost every aspect of the game is soft-coded, and can be modified outside of the source-code. 2b) What impact (if any) did this have on the development of the modding tools and their functionality? It made the creation of the tools much easier, as instead of having to include all the source code and requiring the use of a compiler (Like Source SDK), everything can be done by anybody on the fly. Really, most of the tools are just fancy text-editors, each one tooled for the special formats relic uses. Remember; If it can/should be soft-coded, make it soft-coded. The only things that should be hard-coded in a RTS game should be the most basic elements of the game, or things you dont want being modded (store/account data, basic UI functions, anticheat, etc.) In: Modding and Tools
Thread: validate_actions12 Oct 2019, 09:17 AM As far as I can tell, the "Validate Actions" flag just checks if the type of the ability can work with the actions given. I'm pretty sure its a relic from the coh1 attributes. Each action in coh1 was separated into different categories (Upgrade, Critical and Ability), as certain actions were not available/interchangeable with abilities, upgrades and crits. Example; The Overwatch/Creeping barrage action was only available for abilities, and could not be triggered from a upgrade or critical. As a rule of thumb, its better to keep it on for simple abilities like throwing a grenade or timed modifiers, but disable it for more unique abilities with alot of requirement checks and such.

Thread: My CoH Mods16 Aug 2019, 06:06 AM I'll be stepping away from the CoH series for awhile, probably until Relic decides to lift the restrictions on modding or CoH1 gets some non-ballbreaking tools. Since I dont want to go out with a whimper, here's all the content i've made over the years; Link If you just want to browse the files to see how i've done things, or maybe even continue my legacy, you are free to do so. I want to give a massive thanks to this community. You mates have been both extremely nice and helpful. In: Modding and Tools

Thread: Retail Animations/Animation Fix3 Jul 2019, 10:33 AM Jump back to quoted post3 Jul 2019, 09:13 AMTiger Baron Wait, you want me to compare retail COH2 infantry animations with the new animations or CoH to CoH2 animations, or are you talking about entirely other comparisons? Sorry but I just kinda got confused. And yeah dude I know your pain, I only recently got a rig capable of recording, before that I was in the same boat as well, that's why I wanna help you. Oh I meant the CoH1 Animations to CoH2. CoH2 has had a bit of a downgrade, and I was planning to show that in a video, comparing a normal infantry fight in coh1 vs coh2, and maybe some other stuff. Here's the list I wrote down; In: COH2 Bugs
