Campaign xml file parameter guide?

[mrjmaint]

Does anybody have or know where to get a campaign xml file guide? I have been working on some campaign modifications and would like to know what some of the campaign params, mission effects and dice rolls have on the campaign progress. Some are obvious and some are not.

Thanks.

Hiya,

Microsoft has a number of SDKs. One is a campaign SDK - I don't recall if it is on the MS site.

I've just checked, they have the mission editing SDK which will be of help to you as you will get the feel of some of the xml file parameters and syntax. There is also a good explanation of dice and how they work, in the help file of the mission builder.

I'm wracking my brains to recall where I got the campaign SDK from. Just PM me and I should be able to email you a soft copy.

HTH,

Got your PMs guys.

Sent emails but am worried that the attachments may have triggered anti-virus blocking the emails. I got one bounce-back. I've attached copies of old threads about campaign lock-up and campaign spawn issues. These are a useful reference and save a lot of time and heartache.....

Where could I get a copy of those ?

I'll have a rattle around and see what I can find. I will need to be paste the threads as text into the sticky thread, so it remains searchable for a reasonable length of time.

Can't do it for a couple of days, unless I get an unexpected break.

I made campaigns a couple of years ago, it is complicated, there are many, many parameters to setup (xml campaign file, spawns...)... good luck!

I sent you the Doc files that I use.

I've posted a bit of stuff on campaigns in the Knowledgebase Thread

Thanks David!

Do you know how to get the correct Sector information?

For example:

<ProductionCenters>
<ProductionCenter Name="Metz" Sector="X36" Value="10"/>
<ProductionCenter Name="Reims" Sector="W30" Value="10"/>
<ProductionCenter Name="Toulon" Sector="AV36" Value="10"/>
<ProductionCenter Name="Orleans" Sector="AC24" Value="10"/>
</ProductionCenters>

Cheers
