splash question

[verarticus]

ok im wonder is theres a way to give units splash who dont have splash (ive looked at the xml codes and tried to copy them to the unit and also put the splash particle file to the unit im trying to give splash but no luck)
when i start the game it closes and says something like "line 122 skill placement" or something but its exactly like the code for other splash stuff. if anyone knows how to do this please help.

From the Archmage:

Code: [Select]

<radius value="5"/>
<damage-all value="true"/>
<particle value="true" path="fire_splash.xml"/>
Fire splash:

Code: [Select]

<?xml version="1.0" standalone="yes"?>
<particle-system type="ice_nova_splash">
    <texture value="true" path="images/archmage_particle.bmp" luminance="true"/>
    <model value="false"/>
<primitive value="quad"/>
<offset x="0" y="0" z="0"/>
<color red="1.0" green="0.5" blue="0.0" alpha="0.8" />
<color-no-energy red="1.0" green="1.0" blue="0.0" alpha="0.0" />
    <size value="2" />
    <size-no-energy value="3" />
    <speed value="5.0" />
<gravity value="0"/>
    <emission-rate value="50" />
    <energy-max value="30" />
    <energy-var value="2" />

<emission-rate-fade value="10"/>
<vertical-spread a="1.0" b="0.5"/>
<horizontal-spread a="0.6" b="0"/>
</particle-system>

Check the most recent log what went wrong. It really helps.

like I said I already tryed that but it didn't work.

what do you mean?

[@kukac@]

There is a glest.log file in the main directory.

[verarticus]

where is that?

[@kukac@]

\glest*\glest.log

[ZaggyDad]

Your Glest installation folder.

On Windows, it normally is: C:\Program Files\Glest_3.1.2\ (unless you've got a different version)

Also, make sure you have a particle_splash.xml file in the unit directory.

[mictes]

<radius value="5"/>
<damage-all value="true"/>
<particle value="true" path="fire_splash.xml"/>

->

<splash value="true">
<radius value="5"/>
<damage-all value="true"/>
<particle value="true" path="particle_splash.xml"/>
</splash>

Allright ?!
