Alexander battle map script question

[wlesmana]

This is a longshot but has anyone tried using the camhack mod in Alexander? I used the BI one and it didn't work. The files it changed are the entire data/script/show_me folder and export_desc_advice.txt (just adding the Camhack entry).

The Camhack mod is a battle script where if you clicked the Show Me How button on ANY advice, is activated. Then when you hit PAUSE, the camera's limit is loosened (but not removed like in movie_cam), to a point where you can view soldiers better and slightly lower than normal.

Here's the weird thing: I deleted the show_me folder in BI so I'm assuming it's using the one in the main RTW data folder instead, to which I added the camhack mod. It works fine in BI. However, it doesn't work in Alexander. There is no data/script/show_me folder in Alexander, just like in my BI.

Any ideas?

Did you try to create a new data/script/show_me folder in ATW and put the camhack there. Maybe this works (I use my ATW show_me scripts this way).

Yep. No go. So I'm confused as to where the alexander exe is reading the scripts from. To recap:
- The script works in BI
- When I remove the script folder from BI but installed it in the original RTW folder, it still works in BI (as well as RTW 1.5 obviously)
- It doesn't work in ATW when I put the script in ATW folder
- It doesn't work when there's no script folder in ATW and it is installed in original RTW

So either ATW is working from some secret folder, or for some reason, it just disabled the camhack.

Want me to email you the camhack script?

I have send to you a camhack version for ATW. You can use this version from the ATW folder.
If someone else want a copy, just pm me.
