[REQ] Tutorial or tutor to help me create campaigns

fred8615 · 04-05-10, 04:28 PM

I've decided that for my next version of my Pre Pearl Harbor Career Start mod, I need to add campaign missions instead of just using the ones from the normal campaign start. This will avoid having to do missions that are not appropriate for "peacetime," and also allow the inclusion of the PH attack and other opening war moves Japan made that are not currently in the game.

There's just one problem. I don't know how to write or activate campaign missions! I have been looking at all the articles and such for the mission editor, but they all seem to be just about creating single missions, not campaigns. I assume you can use the mission editor to create at least part of a campaign, and that you can even create campaigns in the first place because of mods like RSRD. I need help in being able to use them, or creating them if you can't use the editor.

If possible, I would prefer a tutorial rather than having to keep bugging someone whenever I needed help. I'm a fast learner, and am pretty sure that with help of the articles already written about the mission editor I can get up to speed on it quickly. It's whatever extra I need to do that's the problem.

There's also no big rush either as it will be some time before I want to try this. But I did want to go ahead and ask for the help now.

Can anyone help me?
