Race Starting Squad Locations?

Postby Smorcest » Sat 27 Jan, 2018 3:00 pm

Hello,
I am trying to mod Dawn of War: Retribution - I try to find where the starting squads are located?

So I am for trying to change for example that the IG race does not start with a guardsmen squad but instead a tank or a stormtrooper squad? is this possible and if so where would I do this?

Any help would be very appreciative, I have never modded the game before but I think start simple will be good.

PS. Sorry for any mistake, English is not my first language - still learning ^^

You can not change your starting squad.

You can. Codex Edition has done it. Even Elite Mod has done it with IST. I don't see why he wouldn't be able to mod it???

In world_objects in ebps under gameplay and go to starting_position_pvp_menu. You can change the charting squad there. Or you can just and a initial action_apply to the Hq and add a delay of one second and have the units spawn automatically. But if you want to remove guardsmen from spawning you'll have to do my first suggestion.
