ShW General Points Options

[IonCharge]

I often like on shockwave to sandbox by myself and build really large bases with cool armys etc. etc. but i have recently been limited by general points as it is impossible to gain them... so i was wondering if anyone has a tool that you can use to give you 5 star general and gives you a lot of points.... this tool would only be used for my own offline enjoyment and not online so you know ...
so does anyone have such a tool?

[Shock]

I'm wondering, what is the use of general's powers when you have nobody to attack, as roughly all of them are in one way related to attack.

I do not know of any trainers that make you a five star General.

[Pickysaurus]

Can't you fiddle the INI files or something to give like 20pts at rank 1?

[Warhawk]

All you need is one INI file. Then all you will need is to capture one tech building or kill
one unit and you will have 5 stars and a lot points so you will be able to choose everything
but when this file is active you can't play online. It's easy to make it, I have one but I don't
know if I have permission to send it to you.

get finalbig program (should be in C&Cfiles IIRC)
open 0SW95.gib with it
extract rank.ini to zero hour/data/INI (create it if you dont have it)
in here:

CODE

Rank 1
  RankName                      = INI:RankLevel1
  SkillPointsNeeded             = 0
  SciencesGranted               = SCIENCE_Rank1;SCIENCE_Rank2 SCIENCE_Rank3 SCIENCE_Rank4 SCIENCE_Rank5
  SciencePurchasePointsGranted  = 1;11
End

change the 1 of "sciencepurchasepointsgranted" to anything, with 20 you should have enough for all generals

there are trainers out there where you can have things like instant heroic units, or no build time, inf money, etc. I woulf provide you with one, but I found out that Norton must've deleted mine (the things kinda works like a virus, so Norton deleted it).

If you go onto Google and Search, Zero Hour Trainer, or something like that I'm sure you'll find something. If you can't, then you're gonna just hafta edit the .ini file yourself.

I'm wondering, what is the use of general's powers when you have nobody to attack, as roughly all of them are in one way related to attack.

I had one that gave you a HUGE ex multiplier, so when I killed one enemy guy, I would be a 5 Star General. So they exist in a way.

Do be careful about downloading trainers.

Sometimes they really ARE viruses. Try to find the most "respectable" site you can find. You should already do this, but this is a reminder that you should backup anything you don't want to lose. Remember, the safest operating system in the world can't protect you from something you give explicit permission to do what it wants to do.


The safest way is fiddling with rank.ini

Make a file called rank.ini, write the code into it, then place it into (note, those are not the exact correct names):
C->Program Files->Zero Hour->Data->INI.
Ingame you will be 5 Star General instantly and have 100 points to play with

Rank 1
RankName = INI:RankLevel1
SkillPointsNeeded = 0
SciencesGranted = SCIENCE_Rank1 SCIENCE_Rank2 SCIENCE_Rank3 SCIENCE_Rank4 SCIENCE_Rank5
SciencePurchasePointsGranted = 100; 1
End

Rank 2
RankName = INI:RankLevel2
SkillPointsNeeded = 800
SciencesGranted = SCIENCE_Rank2
SciencePurchasePointsGranted = 2
End

Rank 3
RankName = INI:RankLevel3
SkillPointsNeeded = 1500
SciencesGranted = SCIENCE_Rank3
SciencePurchasePointsGranted = 2
End

Rank 4
RankName = INI:RankLevel4
SkillPointsNeeded = 2500
SciencesGranted = SCIENCE_Rank4
SciencePurchasePointsGranted = 3
End

Rank 5
RankName = INI:RankLevel5
SkillPointsNeeded = 5000
SciencesGranted = SCIENCE_Rank5
SciencePurchasePointsGranted = 4
End

Awesome thanks, i'll try it and see if it works

[Shiro]

Just noticed, it is:
C->Program Files->EA Games->Zero Hour->Data->INI

[Frostyarmy]

Its not that hard to extract the rank.ini :S is it?

[Shiro]

And? Many people have no clue on how to do ini editing, or at least they think so, and my way is pretty much fail proof (mind you, I code on ZH since 5 years, but most people do not).

Anyway I think this topic was done already.

[Blinkin89]

This is a trainer which was posted on the old Shockwave Forums. The reason was exactly the same request.

I believe it is not right to post trainers or other cheat modules if they can be used against other players.

[beefJeRKy]

Trainers cause mismatches I think.

[Frostyarmy]

I know of a few That dont but i dont use them when playing seriously

[wb21]

Is it possible to use this INI, but only limited to a custom map by saving it in My Documents\Command and Conquer Generals Zero Hour Data\Maps\[Custom map] as Map.ini?

[Frostyarmy]

certainly

[Shiro]

Yup, add the code from Rank1 to map.ini, that should certainly work.

[Blinkin89]

I think you can see it easily when someone is cheating with this trainer. I wonder if it even will work online, I don't think it will...
And why should you cheat against other people? I don't see the fun of that. I only use this when I'm testing maps, and besides that the opponent also gets unlimited points with this trainer.

[Frostyarmy]

No there are no trainers like that i am sure and ive used trainers to cheat online a long time ago(When i first started playing online) but not any more as it just decreases your skill
