Guess what!?! I have WOT greal. But I don't know how to compile a decompiled kfchar.u file. As I said earlier, I was able to unzip the file and have the package in separate folders. I want to make minor changes to the zombies and zip them up again and place them in the System folder!

Yep.  So re-read my instructions.  Sorry not siren.u = new KFChar.u will be created.

I can't find the ActorClasses Siren!

Snipe34:
pawn > monster > Skaarj > KFMonster > Siren etc etc.

Pawns include players/monsters/vehicles like a chessboard pawns are the participating players.

Have fun!

Got it! Thank you.



P.S.
I have one more question. I have to go back to the recompile problem. I manage to unzip (decompile) the kfchar.u file into a kfchar folder with classes subfolder where I can access and change zombie settings. Any way for me to recompile and compress the kfchar\classes folder so I can copy/paste it to the System directory!?!?

My recompile knowledge is limited to 1 .uc compile at a time.

But you don't need to recompile if you're only making minor changes zombies options.  I mean, you're not changing any code.  All you're doing is changing monster parameters.  EG you're changing siren scream: 800 to some other number.

Changing / rewriting code is entirely different.  Recompile is only necessary if you rewrite code.

So, to change monster parameters:

Open the ActorClasses siren, right click defaultProperties.  Siren info is all there, change what you want.
[DO NOT double click and open the code which has the blue screen backing - because you are not changing the code - you are only changing monster parameters]

Next click 'view' (top of the ActorClasses) 'showPackages.'  A second window appears at the bottom showing all packages used.  Scroll down to KFChar, tick the box.  Next (again from top of ActorClasses browers open 'File' > 'SaveSelectedPackages.'

Important: ~QUIT the Editor~

Finally - using Explorer or whatever directory viewer - ppen your UT \system folder, (not KF \system) and you'll find a new KFChar.u.  Copy that to your KF \system.

Give it another try :)
