Thanks, Nefarius and MPHG, yes, I do the right click ... it works fine that way since I've already been able to extract things from other games ... I don't know why Darkstone is giving me trouble ... it could be that I'm overlooking a subtle detail along the way ... there are so many subtle details that you can only learn through experience ... which is what I'm lacking in the most ... I wish you could come over my house and take a seat beside the PC with me, hehehe ... I only wish *sigh* ... anyway, I haven't tried to put any of those little ppl from C&C into my mod ... the only one I think would might like to use is the commando, (a big little guy:-), I will keep in mind the proportions that you mentioned, MPHG, if I do so ... I still have a lot of experimenting to do with some other ideas that I have ... so I will probably be hitting you all with a million questions as I move along ... I'm trying to do as much as I can on my own, not to be brave, but I find when I learn things that way it all becomes very intuitive ... but it is comforting to know that you guys are here for me when I hit a brick wall ... all of your help is greatly appreciated ... I think I'm going to write down a list of all of my procedures in detail as I move along, so I'll know exactly what to ask if I need your help ... saving both your time and my time (at the same time) ... ok, bros, thanks for the help ... and I'll catch you all later ....------------------ "To dream a life, or to live a dream ... only through desire shall the sleeper awaken."

Wow ... so many great ideas, I can hardly keep up with it all ... I come online and click on a thead, and whoosh, most of my questions are already answered before I even ask ... and then there's all the fantastic work so many of you have all ready finished and made available ... if I tried to use all of them, it would probably take me a couple of centuries to to even finish my first mod ... unreal ... just imagine, if everyone here joined together to create a game, we'd probably put Blizzard out of business! hehehe So much talent, it almost seems like magic ... hardwork, passion, and dedication, I guess it would be a form of magic it itself ... anyway, what do you think of this idea ... taking those little commandos from C&C, and keeping them in there original size, and have like swarm of them attack you, maybe like 50 of them ... and they could kill you, and make it hard for you to kill them, not unrealistcly hard, but it would be quite a challenge ... do you think it would be practical to do that? Or impossible or just impossibly hard to do for my first mod? I don't want to bite off more than I can chew ... I haven't tried to do that idea yet, but I would like to hear your opinions & suggestions on it ... anyway, Nefarius, how are you doing with Tiberium Sun & Firestorm? You have me very curious with the things you have mentioned ... you probably want to keep a lot of that as a surprise, and I don't blame you ... a lot of what I'm doing I also want keep as a surprise ... just can't help to wonder though ... so I'll catch you all later, bros .... ------------------ "To dream a life, or to live a dream ... only through desire shall the sleeper awaken."

it is possible, make the gfx ready, then open monstats.txt, the height width columns set both to 1 the pxheight set it to the animation height, give them 50-60% block (works no matter if they have a shield or not blizzard lied on the chaos sanct page) give them about 200 AC on norm 500 on nm and 1000 on hell and u got a very hard to hit mob of small fuzzy commandos to step/jump on just make their pack size 5-10 (like cows) and out em in a small dungeon with (monden set to 3000-5000 ) (i think im gonna do that for XyRAX great idea ))) but make sure i really mean make sure they do about 1-5 dmg and not more on normal seams slow but unless they have a REALLY low AR they will kill u in a few secs (with that size like 80 of them can surround u)------------------ Nefarius' Secondary Mod Site Nefarius' Primary Mod Site ------------------ XyRAX v21.00 Comming Soon! ------------------ NëƒarIu§ ÖƒƒiçláL [V]oÞÞ¦hg §¡Nce D2C V1.02!!! quote: Gaze into the Oblivion within yourself and you shall become your greatest fears.

Awesome, Nefarius ... I'm glad I checked the forums before I left for work this morning ... the info you gave me is just what I needed, thanks so much ... it will be so cool to put them in my mod that way ... the attack of the evily possessed midget commandos! hehehe yeah, put em in your mod, I think that would be so cool ... I don't think I've ever played an RPG with something this in it, have you? And yeah, thanks for the advice on how much dmg they should dish out ... they would surround you an kill you quick ... but I can balance that out with the info you gave me ... thanks again, bro ... catch ya later ....------------------ "To dream a life, or to live a dream ... only through desire shall the sleeper awaken."
