Sorry I'm a noob, can you offer direction to the projectiles table?

[claylogic]

This is fantastic...Finally able to use them and not have to rely on the crap AI to determine weather or not to throw.

Thanks!

i can edit them for you if you want.

btw does this mod still work lol?

I guess not I haven't tried it yet, but Selea said they need to sort out the campaign map. I'm not going to even bother trying to play until v 6.0 is released anyway.

for those that want fire at will just download this - http://www19.zippyshare.com/v/91321154/file.html - and extract to main game directory.

it is in movie format so no need for a mod manager.

you might want to reduce damage/ap damage for pilum_normal, pilum_imperial, and pilum_marian in the projectiles table by 5 for each value.

You can simply create a suffix table (as for example faw_projectiles) with just the lines for pilum in it. Only those will be replaced by the updated values in this way.

So you can give a full sub-pack without having users to change the values manually.

Btw only the Pilum Normal is used, the other two not but anyway it's best to also include those because in the future they can.

dont work sorry. get conflict (3) with DEI pack 1. If i play without mod(DEI) then no effect. if i use mod the game wont load....

I'm sure he will do a new version.

However with the new changes in Javelins/Pila Fire-at-Will would be too powerful and even out of place.

Now in fact Javelins/Pila thrown on a charge disrupt formations. This is plausible in a charge, less so thrown from an immobile position and, as I said, if you put it also outside of a charge it becomes God mode.

ill fix it soon. just been playing day z stand alone.

updated to work with del 0.6d

hey i tried to do that by simply deleting everything in the projectiles table but pilum_normal, pilum_marian and pilum_imperial and renaming the table to faw_projectiles but it didnt update the values in game? is there a specific way to do it?

Give the suffix a name alphabetically higher than the one of the table. So it is "projectiles" something like "zfaw_projectiles"; in this way it should be overwritten.

nice thanks.
