Default New faction ini ZH

I was wondering if anyone had figured out how to make ZH read from custom inis for new sides/generals. Like Pinpoint is LaserGeneral.ini & Thrax is ChemicalGeneral.ini. I'm pretty sure that a modder can make it recognizable but I can't find it. The closest I find is PlayerTemplate DisplayName but that is just the csf file. Anyone know more?

There's no logic to it. Just put the file in INI/Object and it will work! Try it!

lmao Ya, it been that way since the regular General.s Just in ZH they split it up into multiple files. You could always put any ini file into the Objects directory and it would read it. Thats why the had the directory for just one file :P

Yeah, at least from what I know (which isn't a whole lot) the INI files in ZH work very well for this sort of thing. Just like Map.INI it automatically figures out where to shove every change you make, which is really suprising, at least to me, because there are so many places it could go. It just happens to know where to shove weapon entries, object entries, specialability entries and the whole bit. Smart game it is :lol:

yeah all you need to do is create a new ini (or not) eg: 19ofhsh7w.ini

all you have to do is direct the starting unit and building ( found in the profile ) to your version of the command center and dozer
and they will build the tech of that unit
