I've only tested it on v1.4 of COH, I don't know if it will work perfectly with COH 1.5...

I'll probably update it to include all the upgrades for v1.5 except for the Sherman Calliope thing....what do you mean we can't use the main gun anymore???

anyway, what it does is:

Buffs the M10 Wolverine to be a bit faster (which did happen in the official v1.5 patch!)

Adds the Allied AT Gun AP shot capability to the Wolverine (US TD units got first priority for HVAP shot in Real life)

Reduces costs pretty much over the entire damn board; as well as some build times.

Allied Bazookas get buffed (100 damage points), as well as Panzershrecks and Panzerfausts (200 dp)

Engineer units can now upgrade to carry either bazooka or Panzershreck. I did this as a standin, until I can figure out how to create a stand alone bazooka or panzershreck infantry squad in the same vein as the mortar or MG squad.

Building costs and construction have been reduced except for bunkers etc - I don't want to make people recreate the siegfried line...I'm looking at you tycho...

The basic costs for all the specials like V-1 etc haven't been changed, mostly because I'm too lazy.

To make it work, uninstall into your COH directory, then make a shortcut that goes:

"x:\Company of Heroes\RelicCOH.exe" -dev -modname ShepMod

Got any screenshots? I don´t have the game but am interested in seeing the result.

I'd rather see a modification which removes bases, and instead uses only summoned troops.

You mean like you have just a HQ, and you can summon troops off map, and they march in, like "summon tank platoon" and four shermans show up...or "summon infantry platoon" and an infantry platoon with 3 squads and 1 mortar walks on?

Basically (assuming 'show up' means they drive in, rather than just appear out of thin air...)

That would be cool. Unfortunately, I don't know how to do it.

I was playing the 'No acronyms spelled out in the title or opening post' drinking game in G&C again and wasn't sober enough to find the Reply button, let alone the game name in the directory address at the bottom of the post.

I didn't reply because I don't own Company of Heroes.

Pfft. Wuss.

If the codebase for the moddable parts is the same as Dawn Of War, should be quite possible to do 'Summon Tanks Here'. Unfortunately, it'd require making them squads of tanks unless you have them appear one at a time.

There are already a few commander powers in the game that summon several independent units. The Allied Infantry off map combat group (sucky as it is), and the Axis blitz tree brings on a tank + infantry squad.

So examining how the commander powers work would be the best start.

You should be able to do it with the community mod tool, I took a look, however, at it looks like it'd take a fair bit of work to get a new ability in there.

Doesn't "CoH" generally refer to CITY of Heroes?

Yeah, nobody cares.

Oh, I'm sorry. It's so unreasonable to expect someone to actually have a clear title on their topic. It's such a hardship to post an extra ten or so characters.

CoH is much more well known as COMPANY of heroes than a City of heroes, due to a much better graphics.

And company of heroes is MUCH higher rated than your city of heroes.

Google search for "coh" turns up five out of the top ten results related to CITY of Heroes, and none referring to Company of Heroes.

Yahoo search for the same term gives six of the top ten as City of Heroes sites, and only two of the top ten as Company of Heroes.

Lycos search for the same gives eight of the top ten as City of Heroes-related (or seven if you don't count the City of Heroes fancomic website), and only two as Company of Heroes.

Shall I go on?

Whine whine bitch bitch. So good to know you can contribute something worthwhile to the thread, like spending ten minutes with a search engine to prove a point that nobody really cares about and is entirely tangential. People abbreviate games by their initials. It's insane, I know. The only reason people refer to Supreme Commander as SupCom instead of SC is that there is a game in the same genre that shares the same initials (Starcraft). Other games use SC as well, outside the genre, but nobody really cares.

But hey, let's pick nits: City of Heroes doesn't HAVE mods. It's not mod-friendly like WoW. At best, it has some minor interface tweaks, but that's it. That should have alerted you to the fact that you wouldn't have any interest in the thread anyway.

By the way, do a search on "CoH" in the forums. You'll see a lot of threads about RTS games. LOOK I CAN SEARCH FOR STUPID SHIT TOO!

Ass.
And if it really takes you ten minutes to search a three-character term on three different search engines, a slow ass as well.

I wouldn't have posted past the first suggestion in this threat that maybe having a clear title would be helpful, if it wasn't for the idiots who keep claiming that it's not confusing because, hey, you like your game but not CoH.

Fuck this thread. Shep, sorry that the idiots extended a one-post suggestion to a six-post-long digression. Your mods sound pretty cool; too bad that the people using them appear to have their heads lodged firmly up their asses.

And for the ADHD members of the forum, a translation:

Whine Petty Snipe Bitch Bitch Broad Snipe Pathetic Sarcasm FULL BLOWN BITCHFIT!

Seriously, is this how you live your days? Getting so horribly bent out of shape about shit like this? Get laid already.

By the way, I love the part where you try to show respect to Shep after being a little bitch, then proceed to bitch some more. Kudos to you sir. Seriously. It's some sort of special talent you must have.

Remember folks, HE CARES! HE CARES A LOT! DON'T SAY COH OR HE'LL COME AFTER YOU!

...since when did city of heroes become more highly rated than CoH?
