CoH Modder

[Solarverse]

Uploaded all of my mods minus a few personal mods. They *should* all be available for anyone to download. I would like to say, it looks like those mods will get pretty cumbersome after a while, the more mods are uploaded, the more difficult it will be for people to sift through them. So maybe a quality of life column, then a Sounds SFX Column, then a Graphics Column? Just tossing the idea around. I am no coder so I have no idea how easy or difficult that would be...so I leave that up to you, especially since you have done plenty and way more than anyone expects to begin with. 

P.S. I have directed anyone who frequents my thread to your Mod Tool. I would like to eventually make the complete transition.

Thanks @Solarverse that makes the tool much more valuable. I might add a "category" drop down in the next version, but it would be up to mod authors to decide whether or not to add a category to their mod, otherwise by default I'd set the value to "other".

Slight bug in Michiyu's custom enhancement pack has been fixed.

Pretty good sized update today to the program. Head to the website if you want to download this latest version. I've made the following changes:

 

• PROGRESS BARS! Now you'll have some idea about how long it'll take to download a mod, instead of the program just locking up the whole time.
• New method for fetching the server mod data makes the program SUBSTANTIALLY faster!
• Starting to implement Categories, although for now they are informational only. I plan to add the GUI functionality to reduce the visible mod list down by category in the next version.
• New "Fresh Start" button. If your mods and data folder have gotten all kinds of nasty, consider this a large "reset" button. It deletes all of your local mods, deletes everything in your local Data\ folder, and then automatically downloads ALL server mods. I have a confirmation prompt on this button for a reason - it'll take a long time to download all those mods, so you want to be SURE you want to do it!

Thanks to @Solarverse @WanderingAries and @ElectricKeet for the feedback!

 

I'm hoping that with this update to the program, as well as the latest version of my "Rosetta Stone", we'll see a lot more mods coming out soon!

So quick question, I have two mods that use the exact same files all the way down to the .ogg file names. The reason for this is because I have two mods that use Beam Rifle, one is a custom Beam Rifle SFX Mod, the other is a Mod that makes them sound like Plasma Rifles from the Terminator movies. So if it automatically downloads all the mods, what will happen when it DL's two mods that us the same files? Will it ask the person downloading which mod they want or will it overwrite the mod?

[_NOPE_]

@Solarverse it's unique by ModName. As long as they have different mod names, should be fine.

Also @Solarverse if you're talking about the "Fresh Start" button? It only downloads them, it doesn't install them.

Ah okay! I completely misunderstood.

[WanderingAries]

Yeah, categories will be nice. I wonder how the new launcher will work though?

[mtscottc]

Love how this works. Thank you for all the hard work!

I like the idea of this app.  Great idea.

 

Any Taunt mods yet that let me pick Ahhhh vs huuur.

There's no such mod YET. But, you could be a Mod author fairly easily yourself and get this done. Just load up my "Rosetta Stone":

 

Look for the sound that you want to replace, like this:

 

Replace that sound file in game with your own replacement sound file. If it works, GREAT! You can use the CoH Modder tool to pretty easily make your own mod for others to use to replace that sound, if you wish!

I have tried. That taunt file no longer exists and I can't find it on any other mirror sites either. So I came up with lion and panther growl taunts instead. If I ever stumble across the original taunt sound bite, trust me, I will be all over it.

What's the filename you were looking for?

[Solarverse]

I went through all of them except the city named folders. It's nowhere to be found.

I'm not sure what you're looking for exactly, but from what I can tell, here's all of the generic male "HUH"s and "AHHH"s....

Holy sh*t, where did you find the 4th one down? I went through all of those taunts! The 4rth one down is it!

[Solarverse]

I will be making that mod as soon as I get home tonight.

That's "maletaunt6b". I didn't see it anywhere in my Rosetta Stone, weird.. I'm going to have to GREP and see if I can find a reference to it in ANY data file. It sounds almost identical to me to maletaunt6.... no clue why they had two...

[_NOPE_]

Well... ZERO text references in the entire DATA directory to this file, in over 300,000 files, there's no mention of it. I'm going to expand my search now to my entire development directory to see if it's coming from somewhere else...

Could it be the file is located server side? If so, can we get others fom server side that no longer exist?

..in the bathroom.  ?!!? Oh no, you may wanna get that checked out.

Added my Glowie ping mod to the list.  Hopefully I did it right.

As far as I can see, it's fine. I'll have to test it out in-game after work! Thanks!

AFAIK all things like sounds and images that are cosmetic are all client side to speed up resource loading...

I'm almost certain the Elec snipe activation is server side. I could be wrong, but that is another power I can"t alter.
