For custom objects added into the Target_Types.ini files, how does one make it so they are not assigned as a potential target. Example, I've created and added a basic aircrate into the _TYPES.INI file and it displays just fine, but does that mean that an "Aircrate" could potentially be assigned a target - I would assume so...? Thanks for the clarification! Maybe I'm getting confused on where the .lods go - objects, terrain, etc...?

I've done this MAAAAAAANNNNY times! Simply give it a 0 target value....

 

from the stock _types.ini:

 

[TargetType015]

Name=ils_shack

FullName=Shack

ModelName=ils_shack.lod

TargetType=MISC

ActiveYear=0

TargetValue=0 <------

UseGroundObject=FALSE

DamagePoint=0.010

ArmorValue=0.0

ArmorType=0

RepairRate=0.555

StartDetectChance=0

StartIdentifiedChance=0

IncreaseDetectChanceKey=0

MaxVisibleDist=8000.0

DamagedModel=

DestroyedEffect=SmallFire

DestroyedModel=shack1_destroyed

SecondaryChance=0

SecondaryEffect=

 

Have you looked at many of my terrain rebuilds? There's LOTs and LOTs of new added structures, mostly imported from Polaks' Object Library -- various and sundry buildings (btw: there is a stack of shipping crates in there too...)

 

All added "thingys" like that go directly into the terrain's folder, are listed in the _types inis, and given placements via the usual method via the _Targets.ini

You're the man Kevin, that's great info - thanks! Which one of your remakes do you think would be best to learn more from and leverage object .lods best for populating an airbase? Where would I find Polak's Object Library - I must have missed that!

Which ones???? Well, any of them... SoCal probalby has the most for "modern" times (followed by ASW - but the new version to come may have more), the latest Libya also has some "nice" things :haha:

 

Any of my WW2 rebuilds (Okinawa, China, Burma, New Guinea, Solomons ( v.25 is still awaiting new trees by Deuces)

 

Polaks' Object Library 1 is mostly stuff imprted from CFS2 (see attached jpg from the set), and has a more WW2 PTO look

CA_Stary's Hangar Pak is VERY cool as well (used some on the Hawaii map)
