How do I Start with massive Cash/Supply amount?

[GrandpaTroll]

Please forgive me folks, I have had 3 operations from a bad accident over 2 years ago and less than a months I have yet another, a wrist fusion.

That being stated, my memory is bad due to constant pain and lots of pain meds.

IO read somehwere here but cannot find it..something about maybe an .ini file or where you put - (whatever amount) and gives you all cash/supplies you need.

One other waywas to add "amount" and then it subtracts from that amount.

I only play single player, never online.

I am sorry if it is clear, but have been looking but cant find the answer here...

Thank you for any assistance.

Uuuh, grandpa...? I think you're on the wrong game forum, what you want is probably WarCraft. Yeah, it's over there...:|

Nope and get yer dang hands off me:tantrum::tantrum::freek:

No, it is here, I got it before..or another board similiar to here

Me,myself and I also posted on that board..dont remember what it is called though.

I got it about January-February this year.

But again..I can still use my walker..:chin: most of the time

can you please state more clearly what exactly you are wanting to do and what is your problem?

[GrandpaTroll]

What I want to do: I want to add a huge amount of gold

My problem: I dont know how

Only singleplayer, specifically for Skirmish Maps

[SgtRicko]

Well first off, it's not gold, it's supplies/cash you're using in the game. Second, if you have ZH, then there should be an option in the skirmish mode to raise the starting amount funds from $10000 to $50000. Just keep in mind though that the game will receive the same benefits you do as well, so don't be surprised if they build up a crazy huge army out of nowhere!

...That, or you can edit a specific map you like to have a higher than normal amount of starting resources, but that would make the map unoffical, just so you're aware.

But this still doesnt answer my question.

I do have ZH

Ok, not gold but supplies:dismay:

Yes, I can see where you can raise up to 50000 cash

But what you eluded to was exactly what i wanted.. MASSIVE CASH

I have been looking and have seen it eluded to in a few other forums as an ini file..

but not exactly which onew to use.

Thanks for any additional assistance

What I want to do: I want to add a huge amount of gold
Not specific enough. How do you want to add this gold/cash?

My problem: I dont know how
Have you tried learning how? Read a tutorial or just extract some INI files and mess with them?

You're not being specific enough... how do you wish to go about getting this MASSIVE CASH? How much cash do you consider MASSIVE CASH? Do you want to start a game with this MASSIVE CASH, or have a way to get this MASSIVE CASH in the game?

Specific eh?

Ok:gnasher:

(j/k)

I would like to alter a line in maybe some .ini file which I did state in OP that somewhere I read about an ini file where you could do this..but thats what I am trying to find out HOW DO I DO THIS?:tantrum:

I would like to get this MASSIVE Cash by simply following my request in the OP, by altering an .ini file...

MASSIVE well, If I could find out how to alter the .ini file in question then I could try different amount..maybe try starting with 1,000,000 CASH/SUPPLY..maybe another time try 500,000....

I had also read that you could put a negative mark "-" and the CASH/SUPPLY would simply deduct in the negative as much as you could use....


But I do thank you for the help my friend, and yes I have used the world builder over the last couple of years adding supply docks and oil derricks and such....

But as stated in the OP what i am looking for, but cant remember is where this .ini file is.

Oh and have I tried learning?:gnarly::grumpy::irked:..my friend, read every one of my posts, this is what i am trrying to do here, is learn.as in have a Brother in gaming help and older man, who by profession, has some memory problems from his accident and a little concentration issue...:\ plus on some constant meds for this pain level I experience on a daily basis..:doped:

Thanks for helping me, I hope you or someone else may have seen this post somewhere??

Thanks again

Hello fellow gamer, in ZH go to your documents folder, open 'er up and look for the CNC ZH data folder, open 'er up and then open the skirmmesh.ini, look fer the 'starting cash=' and change, be sure to save. Now your hooked up ( My son plays with 15,000000000. He says " the U.S. militery does not worry about money" )
Happy gaming.......:nuts:

Gandpa Troll, yer look'n in the wrong place. In your 'My Documents' folder, you should have a shortcut on your desktop, open it up, look for the 'Zero Hour Data' folder, open 'er up. Now look for the 'skirmish.ini' file, you can edit this with 'notepad' scroll down the line.."starting cash=" line, delete the dollar amount, add the amount you want, save the file and your ready to play, just remember to....KILL'M ALL AND LET GOD SORT THE BODIES OUT!!!

[GrandpaTroll]

Thanks for the reply, thats what i needed

ok... i've found a script that allows a two players. to have unlimited cash.

i know your question has been answered already, but.... if you download my map, it has the script... as soon as i can find out how to download an attachement....

or, the script goes like this....


*** IF ***
[???] 50000 is Greater Than the number of credits possessed by Player 'player0'
*** THEN ***
[???] Player 'player0' gets $ 100000
Show military briefing String: 'player0 got more money' for 10000 milliseconds.



*** IF ***
True.
*** THEN ***
[???]Set Player 'player0''s money to $ 100000


do this for all players.... the other called player1 etc.... it's worked for me anyway....
