Thread: Mako Celo6 Feb 2021, 19:28 PM Jump back to quoted post6 Feb 2021, 19:26 PMlemmiwinks How do I enable these? The program does not have any fonts These are just random fonts I had on my PC. You set the FONT on the font button just below shadows: In: Modding and Tools
Thread: Mako Celo6 Feb 2021, 19:12 PM Jump back to quoted post6 Feb 2021, 18:59 PMlemmiwinks But can you tell me, how to do the fonts you got as examples on page 1? Like with the shadows and so on? There are two SHADOW properties: - SIMPLE shadows. - FX (SOFT) shadows The simple shadows simply prints a copy of the text under the actual text. The FX shadows print a copy of the shadow under the text. But then it blurs the shadow to give it a softer more realistic look. You can adjust how much to blur and and how dark (BIAS) the shadow is. SIMPLE SHADOW For SIMPLE shadows: - open the RANK or NAME setup dialog. - click on the [1] next to SIMPLE SHADOW options to select a color. - select where to place the shadow in degrees (0 = --> (east)). - select how far away to draw the shadow under depth. FX (SOFT) SHADOW For FX shadows: - select SHADOW from the dropdown list. - set the MODE to ACTIVE. - click on the [1] next to Color/Ang options to select a color. - select where to place the shadow in degrees (0 = --> (east)). - set the amount of BLUR. - set the amount of BIAS. The FX shadows eat up some CPU cycles rendering the graphics. You can also select EMBOSS from the dropdown and adjust the blur and bias to make the letters appear a little 3D. After you select an FX from the dropdown, you can press HELP to get some basic ideas of what that FX does and some starting settings. In: Modding and Tools
Thread: Mako Celo6 Feb 2021, 19:01 PM Another thought on the JPEG image is that MakoCELO does not make a copy of the image. It reads it when MakoCELO starts. So the file needs to be there when MakoCELO starts. And MakoCELO would need the computer rights to access the image. If you are the admin on the machine, MakoCELO should be able to get to the image in most places. So maybe move the image where all programs can access it like MyPictures or something.

Thread: Mako Celo6 Feb 2021, 18:50 PM Jump back to quoted post6 Feb 2021, 15:31 PMlemmiwinks Hey, hero of coh! I probably found a bug. Since I got the new versions, it seems to not save the fonts anymore. Everytime I restart Celo, it's set back to default. Only with the player's font. Also, what could be the reason, I can't add an image as background? It's jpeg, like the others, but celo does'nt show it. SHORT STORY Put MakoCELO in a different directory than the default. LONG STORY When you install, the installer puts the program in C:\PROGRAM FILES directory. This is standard for Windows. Then so each person who uses the PC can have their own settings, it places the MakoCELO settings file hidden deep in the bowels of C:\User that is very hard to find. After Win10 updates, Win10 screws up the directory name where the profile is stored and you can never access it again unless you fix it manually. So the best option is DONT PUT MAKOCELO in PROGRAM FILES directory. Put it in a place like C:\MakoCELO or MyDouments\MakoCELO. Anywhere except PROGRAM FILES. Because Microsoft sucks. And I am worse. JPEG FILES The code to display images is all handled by Microsoft Visual Basic. The language the program is written in. I am not aware of any limitations on JPEG files. The only thing I can think of is if the image was very large. On the RANK or NAME setup you pick the image you want from the PANEL IMAGE button. Then select a SCALING option. I would try 2-FIT first to make sure the image is there. For best results you should resize the image to the size of the panel before using it in MakoCELO. If you do not have a good image editor, just letting MakoCELO resize may look better. The COPY STATS and SAVE STATS are there so you can get the exact size image you want to use and edit it to look how you want it to. COPY STATS IMAGE EDITED VERSION OF COPY FINAL RENDERING IN MAKOCELO NOTE: MakoCELO(Visual Basic) can handle JPG, PNG, and GIF (not animated) images. In: Modding and Tools
Thread: How do you guys play 4v4, today?4 Feb 2021, 23:51 PM Jump back to quoted post4 Feb 2021, 19:49 PMLeodot First, I thought you were joking but, wow, looks serious! Yes, and the side benefit is that you will play more games faster. Which then puts you into the GAME SPAMMER mode where your rank ELO is better because you have more games. So you will rank up even more. So why cry thru a 25 minute game of getting rekt when you can alt-f4 and be back in another game 5 minutes later. You can get 3-4 games in per normal game. Seriously though, 4v4 is the funnest mode at times. However getting a good game requires about 7-10 games be played. So be ready to waste 2 hours on garbage games to get that one good game. 2v2 is the next closest mode right now. Since there are only 2 players you get better games and faster. And you avoid a lot of the artillery RNG crapfests. For me personally I hated some of the 2v2 maps. With the last map patch I have been trying 2v2 more and it is a much better experience overall. But not as exciting as a good 4v4. So play some 4v4 until you are good enough for 2v2. And only play 4v4 with SOV or OST commanders that can erase/counter artillery. Or you will have a bad time.

Thread: How do you guys play 4v4, today?4 Feb 2021, 19:40 PM Jump back to quoted post4 Feb 2021, 19:39 PMGrim I normally: Search for 4v4. Find match. Check to see if they are premade. /l if they are. Rinse and repeat until it has the potential to be a fun game of comparable skills. ^ This method also works pretty good but you will need to do this for about 4-5 games before getting something playable.

Thread: How do you guys play 4v4, today?4 Feb 2021, 19:37 PM WHAT YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO DO: 1. Go into the lobby, search for automatch game. 2. Start another game and play that for 5-15 minutes. 3. Watch someone crash on load, go to step 1. 4. See horrible team matchup, go to step 1. 5. See person on your team do the dumbest stuff ever, go to step 1. 6. See premade team arty you to death while no on on your team even speaks english so you cant counter it, go to step 1. WHAT YOU SHOULD DO: 1. Go into the lobby, search for automatch game. 2. Start another game and play that for 5-15 minutes. 3. As the match loads press Alt-F4, then go to step 1. Method 2 will have a better win ratio than method 1. And you will get to fully enjoy what ever other game you are playing. Because many players dont want to play against AI so the enemy will drop as often as your team does. Because all of the players are basically retarded and cant comprehend how averaging works. In: COH2 Gameplay
Thread: Mako Celo3 Feb 2021, 19:47 PM VERSION 4.35 BETA RELEASED https://github.com/RosboneMako/MakoCelo/blob/master/MakoCelo_435_Web_Beta.zip CHANGES: The new version fixes a bug in team games where only 50% of the teams were being checked. So the team results were often weird or wrong. Added WIN/LOSS counts for the current team on the player card. And it notes the Team # in the team list. Added WIN/LOSS counts in team lists for Axis and Allied based teams. Cleaned up the code when reviewing LAST MATCH info. May still be buggy. Cleaned up mouse scroll on team lists. It is still clunky, but better. Cleaned up some Error checking code to prevent exceptions. Still needs a lot of work. NEW TEAM WIN LOSS VALUES AND TEAM LIST NUMBER This is useful to see how close to reaching a rank you are for new teams. And checking approximate win ratio. ADDED WIN LOSS COUNTS FOR TEAMS In: Modding and Tools

Thread: Relics Legendary Team Game Matchups2 Feb 2021, 22:37 PM Jump back to quoted post2 Feb 2021, 22:04 PMNorthWeapon Aight, playing a 4v4 and expecting good players and/or similiary ranked players will result in frustrations and rage. The point of this forum post is how bad the match maker fails at times. It must give everyone some amount of time to wait and after that it is all bets are off. Rank 1 vs Rank 10000 seems like a valid game But seriously I already lost like 3 games in a a row then get some bullshit match. Finish playing with a -7 streak. Ooooo how fun.... How do think people are going to respond to that? If they guess uninstall and play something else they might be correct. The server code is completely borked and they will never fix it, so why would I buy their next game? So I can get screwed over and abandoned like Coh2 and DOW3. Hopefully they see these posts and fix the shit or at least fix the next game. This is all about: - making them aware that there is a problem. - having a shoulder to lean on during hard times. - the sheer entertainment value of the crazy ranks. As Sturmpanther always points out, "you wont lose a lot of rank on those games." In: Scrap Yard
