Changing anti aircraft animation

[D551]

Does anyone know if you are able to change the anti aircraft missile animation? I would like to see about changing it to black flak gun clouds, as well as flak gun sounds. Or using the fireworks (fireworks from we love the so and so day celebrated) as a simple replacement.

Such animations were done long ago. If I remember well, there exist animations with combined missile and flak attacks, too. As at present I cannot give the proper links to these animations, I temporary attache the flak clouds from the scenario SOE.

Oh that's incredible!! Already made and everything! Thanks for the help Civinator.

I believe the sound path needs to be changed from "samAttack.wav" to the "gun_20mm.wav" to get the flak guns firing sound in the configuration settings file.

Yes , but of course you can add many other flak sounds for the animation, too.

That is true! yeah maybe that last post was a bit to obvious

You got it to work? I tried replacing the flc file in the SAM folder to no avail when I wanted a counterspell effect for a fantasy game that had anti-magic buildings. Still got missiles shooting down spells though, so I guess it was using the files from the original game, rather than the ones in the mod's directory.

hello! yes I did get this to work, do you have the correct folders set up?

Thanks. Yep, although obviously I've dome something wrong. I edited the SAM.ini file to use new flc files in the same directory, as you appear to have done. This sits in the main Mod fodler and should override the original. Not so important now though as I went off the idea and used 'Air defence' units and spells (planes) instead. Would be nice to know why it didn't work though.I've been tinkering with this mod for 10+ years now - it never seems to be finished
