Creating a Campaign Mission

[Tango]

Hi, I was wondering if anyone on this community knew how the missions work on the EM4 campaign. I have created one in the past on my old PC, but I have forgotten. Could someone point me in the right direction?

 

Thanks.

There was a mod which was basically a tutorial on how to script missions. It was called the Routine Mod by Oliwerko and it was available here around 3 to 4 years ago. Seems to have dissappeared. I would like to reupload it but I cannot find the author on this site.

It taught the basics of creating a whole new mission from nothing including the following things:

• Making the map texture
• Placing objects on map texture to make it into a functioning map
• Naming objects
• Editing prototypes in the editor
• Creating the script
  • Declaring and initializing ingame variables (Vehicle, Person, GameObject)
  • Manipulating these things - setting paths, burn, explode,
  • Timers and Events
  • Objectives
  • Conditions
  • Cutscenes
• Creating the language files for the UI

This should get you started. Send me a PM and I can send you three sample missions that I made several years ago.

I had a look at the Routine Mod. It makes it look rather advanced. However, didn't it have advanced scripts or something? Anyway, I'll send you a PM.
