1.1
- Added "Fog of War" toggle in replays!
- Added some more game speed hotkeys (by request)
Update:
1.2:
- Added AI toggles for putting CPU players to sleep. You can also let the AI control your own army (with Shift+F8).
- Hotkeys can now work on a specific player: first select a squad or building owned by the player and then press a hotkey. For example: If you want to give resources to the enemy, select it's HQ first and then press Shift-F10. With this method you can also give units or abilities directly to the enemy.
- Added Atmospheres to change the lighting parameters of the scene.
- Added screensaver mode. (same as cinematic mode in replays)
- Removed Fog of War toggle in replays again, because it's no longer necessary with the latest Relic patch.
Nice one, thats what I`ve been waiting for to test my maps. Great!
Nice i like it ;).
Not saying its bad but i have a few ideas maybe you can takeon board :cool:
Like:
Instand Buildings/Units
Control Both sides(For making your own battle scenes)
Single Units(like on commando mod..Pritty cool)
Just those little things ;)
Anyway goodjob hope to see future ones :)
P.S Henry if you dont see me replying to your guestbook its becuase everytime i post a reply on it, It comes up with an error
no problem, seems pretty bugged, nothing I can do about it :(
It works now :D guess it was just buggy :mad:
Awesome mod man!! Thanks for making it.
This one is great ! I guys you can make some funny scenarios with this, try a skrimish, Lyon, 2 players and low all bridges but the middle one and see the insade computer rush you :D
Thanks!
This will let you test any battle. You can spawn any unit or ability! 20 pershings or tigers if you want! Followed by 20 mortar barrages ontop of them.
Bucky Boy is the hero again!
There's even a unit that relic decided not to put in the game, but you can use it with the cheat mod :D
thanks for feedback ..and welcome to my (humble) site. :)
This mod is great, but somehow it broke.
I had a game crash last night, and when I restarted the game and loaded my game again, I was unable to spawn any units nor use any of the other commands.
I uninstalled the mod, and reinstalled it but that didn't seem to do anything.
I also tried to load an older savegame, but nothing worked either.
I haven't tried reinstalling the entire game yet but I'll guess I have no other option.
Is your vanilla COH still working ok?
No idea, haven't tried yet. Though I decided to just reinstall everything. That'll probably fix it. :)
probably, yes. :)
btw, did u perhaps spawn an excessive amount of units when it crashed? I've never tried this myself, but i heard this from several people that it may crash that way. This is not really a problem with the mod itself, but more a memory related problem i think.
Ok... I completly removed COH from the computer, including the files in the documents folder. I installed it again, patched it all up, then installed the cheat mod and started a new game. Shift+Y and har har, a pershing tank appears.
I place my save games back into the folder, load up my game, press shift+Y and.. nothing happens. Now that save was made after the crash, so ok, I figure it's corrupt and remove it. No problem, I have more saved games.
I load up a savegame from before the crash and try to spawn something and an error pops up which pauses the game. Nothing has spawned and I have to go to the menu to click 'resume' to continue.
This is pretty weird, this savegame can't possibly be corrupted as it's from before the crash, and I'm able to spawn units without a problem if I start a new campaign or a skirmish game.
I tried 3 other savegames from other previous missions which give the same error.
Any clue?
Edit: the max I spawned was about 100 pershing tanks, and that ran without any problems. I still was able to spawn items after that, and in the next level.
ah ok.. you're playing the campaign with the cheat mod. I didn't really design it for that. It's more for skirmish games.
The errors you see are most likely due to conflicts with the campaign SCAR scripts. (It's heavily scripted stuff. My cheat mod uses these same scripts) ..Also the campaign scripts expect certain events to occur in a specific order (like mission objectives for instance). If you do strange stuff with the cheat mod, it may get messed up.
Anyways, try opening the console with ctrl-shift-~ and see what the error is. Maybe I can fix it. :)
Well, for now I was able to fix it by just restarting the mission. The weird thing is that I hadn't spawned anything yet in that mission.
so it only happens in that mission from your screenshot?.. Could you upload this savegame perhaps? (my campaign got reset after i patched the game, so i can't test)
Yes, I had not a single problem what so ever during the previous missions.
However, I didn't use a single command from your mod for this mission when the game crashed on me. It's only after the crash that I wanted to spawn a few units to make up for the loss of progress. Then nothing happend.
It's only after reinstalling the game and mod, and loading up this savegame (or any other savegame from my campaign) that I get the error. Though if you simply start the mission over again, it all works fine.
I'll upload my savegame when I get home from work. Perhaps you can figure it out.
Edit:
http://bjornwaumans.be/savegames.rar (10,5MB)
I added 2 saves from the V2 mission where the crash first occured. Reloading those saves gives me the error when trying to spawn.
I also added a savegame from the redball express mission, which also gives the error when you try to spawn anything. Which doesn't make sense to me as I had no problems during that mission.
And, did you have a chance to take a look?
I'll take a look now... I didn't realise you uploaded it already, because you edited the post. (that doesn't show up in recent threads on the main page)
ok i found the problem. When you load a savegame, the cheatmod script isn't initialized properly. To fix this you can either reload the mission (with F10) or edit the last two lines in mymod.scar (in CheatMod/Data/scar), so they look like this:
Rule_AddOneShot(MyMod_Init, 0)
--Scar_AddInit(MyMod_Init)
anyways, i'll add this fix in the next update too. :)

Yeah, I figured as much. :)
I prefer not to post back to back. :)

Right, that makes sence. Once I start a mission I keep playing untill I finish it. But after that game crash (which I asume was unrelated to the mod) I had to reload, hence the error.
Thanks for checking it out.
Also, perhaps another fun fact. After messing around, and spawning a few dozen tanks, suddenly any newly spawned units became enemy units and AI controlled. So I asume there is a limit to how many units each player can have.
Don't have a savegame though.
hehe.. you can try taking back control by selecting the unit and pressing shift-insert. or press shift-f10 to increase the population limit.
or press shift-f10 to increase the population limit.
Well, I already had. I'm asuming there is a unit limitation hardcoded into the game?
I didn't try shift+insert, the enemy Jeep was spawned in the middle of 50 pershing tanks, so erm.. they got to it before I did. :D
Btw, I didn't found a key to spawn the regular sherman tanks. Is there one?
shift+w if i remember correctly. WooTzu (http://forum.1337coh.com/member.php?u=38) made a list of all the hotkeys. It's on relicnews somewhere. I'll include it in the readme, next update.
I like it, thanks for the update
How do u install it? When i dl it i only got a attachment.php where do u put it?

Must you have version 1.1 to do version 1.2?
no not needed.. however, if you already have 1.1 it's probably better to uninstall it first.

are the versions based on patches?
i unistnalling 1.0 to do 1.2
no, it are all complete packages.
great mod altogether but is it broken with the newest patch (1.71) ?
it just won't work for me so i'm wondering if that is the problem
I just tested it in 1.71.. works fine for me still.
What exactly was the problem?

Hey bucky 1 Question why does my game freeze up when i start skirmish? i mean i can move my camra around but not spawn or moove any men
which map do you try to play ?
The_Griffon2
26-07-07, 22:44
which map do you try to play ?
Route N13
Route N13 works fine for me also (with CheatMod).. or do you mean CheatMod MP?.. haven't tested that yet.
hmm, the problem for me is that nothing is responding
the game plays completely as normal but none of the commands do anything
i am testing it on angoville so there should be no problems there, but one thing to note is that i have the steam version of the game, so that might (more than likely) be the problem
the game files in the company of heroes folder it's self should be the same but the path is obviousy different (C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\company of heroes)

I got this from RelicNews:
Right click Coh in your steam MyGames list. Hit properties, in the new box hit "set launch options". Here you can add command lines for the startup of mods and such.
for options you should then type: -modname CheatMod -dev -nomovies
Also make sure there's a sub-directory "CheatMod" in your (steam) company of heroes folder.
@Griffon: you also have steam?

I dont know! how would i find out if it is the steam version?
hm, strange, usually you get this freeze at the start when somethings wrong with the scar code.

steam games you can buy online.. so if you don't know about this, your coh is probably not steam. :)
try pressing ctrl-shift-~ for the console to see if there's some error message there. (page-up key to scroll up)

no that's not it.. i also get that message. try scrolling up (with page-up) and see if there's more.
ps: have you tried pressing F10 and then continue... often that fixes things or shows the true nature of the error.

I found one other thing ( fatal scar error:error loading script file (data:scar\wcutil.scar check scrypt syntax
btw: i pressed f10 and it just changed to victory point control and the cheat mod was turned off.

hmm.. that's weird, i haven't even modified that file.
..try deleting the cheatmod directory and reinstall cheatmod.. other than that there's not much i can do, because it's working fine for me (with 1.71).

Yea that has helped me, i would have thought that you just needed that for the desktop shortcut like most other steam games
Thanks and once again great mod. :)

How do I install this mod?
dasuperseal
28-03-08, 01:30
download version 1.2 in the first post, then double click the installer.
Hello, I am have difficulty installing with the executable due to the location of Company of Heroes on my harddrive. The installer believes that Company of Heroes is not installed, which I think is caused by my drive letter, which instead of the usual C: instead it's E: I cannot change the drive letter, as it is my primary drive. If it is possible could somebody post cheat mod v1.2 (which i have used before i reformatted) in a .zip or .rar format? This would be greatly appreciated.

great mod BuckyBoy but i do have a problems about the 1.2 cheatmod version...i tried to install the 1.2 patch but nothing helps.The problem is:when I run cheatmod (version 1.2) i go to any campaign map or skirmish and when the game loads I see a panel with my soldiers spawned but i cant order them to move or anything else its very strange becuse I also cant see a hole map with shift+F1.It looks like the game is,umm....paused nothing is happening.I need help becuse I want to play on cheatmod version 1.2 becuse its obviously btter then 1.0
