kknd EXTREME & units.cfg

greenspun.com : LUSENET : KKnD Message Board : One Thread

Does anybody out there know how to make the changes made to the 'units.cfg' file affect the game? Because I've made pretty cool modifications to it, but I just can't figure out how to play with the changes I made.

Thanx.

Ok here's what I have found so far. By scanning the KKnD executable I was able to find a couple items. There is a reference to designating the .CFG file you wish to use with the -stats function. there is also a -noblack (no known effect) and -nocd (causes game to run as if the CD isn't in the drive). The stumper here is that the other 2 allow the game to run but -stats drops out as if generating an error. Unfortunately the game does not make a visible error report. If anyone can shed more light please do so. Thanks.

Switches

-stats filename.cfg define modified .cfg only works in multiplayer;

-noblack clears map, never made it into the game;

-nocd has no effect on my PC, can play multiplayer without this switch.

Multiplayer

You need to use the .cfg file with -stats switch and running a multiplayer game.

Extreme cheat

So I take it that there is no cheat for kknd extreme? I tried the unit editor but it doesnt work. Does work for kknd but not extreme.
