Code How to compile (non-mutator) uc files?

[-=THOR=-]

Hi,

I'm trying to fix the team-balance problems. I'm not creating a mod/mutator because I prefer to submit the modifications to TWI directly, once it's tested and working, so that they can eventually integrate it. I just modified ROGameInfo.uc. But how do I test it out?

Thanks

You can't AFAIK. However, you can compile it by just making a project like MyROGameInfo folder in the <MyDocuments>\MyGames\RedOrchestra2\ROGame\Src folder. And in that MyROGameInfo folder make a Classes folder and in that one a MyROGameInfo.uc file. In that file you create the MyROGameInfo class and extend it from ROGameInfo. Next add only your modified parts in that class. As last update the ROEditor.ini and you should be able to compile it.

What a waste of time

I was to help them fixing bugs in my free time, I'm better do something else.

You can send your changes to Strago and Yoshiro. They will then look into it and test it. I've done that before too and they really do welcome it.

I can't answer about mutators as I haven't tried them in RO2, and I haven't made any since working on UT3 a few years ago.

A few quick answers to most of your other questions.

1) Yes that is where RO2 code is, your code should go in <USERDIR>\My Documents\My Games\RedOrchestra2\ROGame\Src
In there you should have a folder for your package, a folder within that called classes, and then within folder go all your .uc files.

2) nFringe, UDKEclipse are some IDE's to use, or you can use Notepad++ or a text editor of your choice.

You can use UnCodeX to very easily index and explore RO2's code base.

3) Create a shortcut to <steam install location>SteamApps\common\red orchestra 2\Binaries\Win64\ROGame.exe and append " make" to the command line. so the command line will look like this:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\red orchestra 2\Binaries\Win64\ROGame.exe" make

You will also need to edit ROEditor.ini in <USERDIR>\My Documents\My Games\RedOrchestra2\ROGame

Find the section [ModPackages] and add this line for each package you want to make
ModPackages=PACKAGENAME
