Editing range of all ranged weapons in Fots

[Ken-oH]

could anyone help with this?? i found a pack. file before in which someone put in the vanilla SH2 ranged weapons to allow range customisation for every unit using that weapon. is the this possible for fots units? thnx for any help

Yes. Look for tutorials on how to use the PFM to create new pack files and import & edit data tables. The table you want is "projectiles".

Range is determined by the weapon the unit uses, not for each unit individually.

The only difference between FotS units and other units is which entry in the table is edited. Look for the weapon IDs that start with "boshin_", those are the weapons used by FotS units. Most FotS db entries are prefixed with "boshin_" or "bos_".

I've also been trying to do this and I must be doing something wrong...

I am using PFM 2.0.5 and when I open the Shogun II DATA pack and open DB and open PROJECTILE table I can only find the original Shogun II units? Is the FOTS stuff in one of the PATCH packs instead? If so which one?

And can't we just alter the base pack? I have no idea how to make new 'modification' packs that the game recognizes.
