Title: Tutorial: More Grass types
Post by: Walentin 'Walki' L. on July 18, 2009, 12:14:35 PM

How the Relic Level Designer added flowers and other to their maps.

You need:
 -Company of Heroes and the Worldbuilder
 -Corsix's Mod Studio

Ok let's start:

First we need to unpack the grass types with the Mod Studio.

Open it and select "New Mod":

Name the Mod Grass_unpacker or something else.
(http://walki12.wa.funpic.de/tut_2.JPG)

Go to data>Art>Scenarios
And extract the grass folder:

Now close Corsix's Mod Studio (We don't need it anymore)

Go to Main Folder of Company of Heroes for me:
C:>Program Files>THQ>Company of Heroes

Open the Grassunpacker folder:
Grassunpacker>Data>Art>Scenarios
(http://walki12.wa.funpic.de/tut_4.JPG)

Copy the folder grass:

Go back to the Main Folder of COH and open the folder
WW2>Data>Art>Scenarios
(http://walki12.wa.funpic.de/tut_6.JPG)

Paste the grass foiles into this folder.

Ok now open the Worldbuilder and open or create a new Map.

Tip: If the map doesn't load and an error appears:
(http://walki12.wa.funpic.de/tut_8.JPG)

Just remove the Grass_unpacker Folder and the module file from the main COH folder.

Now it should work...

Ok back to the tutorial:

Select the grass editor
(http://walki12.wa.funpic.de/tut_9.JPG)

Now click on +
(http://walki12.wa.funpic.de/tut_10.JPG)

Here you can see all types of grass just add one or all  ;)
(http://walki12.wa.funpic.de/tut_11.JPG)

I take grass_tulips_purple_01
(http://walki12.wa.funpic.de/tut_12.JPG)

Looking very good you can combine very much types. So just try it out.

Find out but dont tested it here:

The grass editor works. You just have to extract the new grass types with corsix tool first, after that the "+" button works.

EDIT solved the problem myself.

Copy grass folder into C:\Documents and Settings\(your name)\Dokumenter\My Games\Company of Heroes\ww2\Data\Art\Scenarios
