Background Story
The idea of the models base system is to give the user the possibility to customize the appearance of the units of his Wargames installation by choosing between different configurations via editing one text file. |
The ..\@wgl5\bin\models_base.hpp file is only the place to decide which model set to use from a few different ones available. |
The files really containing the model defintion are to be found in ..\@wgl5\bin\model_definitions (which is only important for very experienced people). |
Important: Models_base.hpp is the setup file - yet it's possible to include new model configs. Check the very end of this page for detailed informations. |
File Location And Structure
In your local WGL installation check the bin folder (..\@wgl5\bin\ ) |
for a file called models_base.hpp. |
You can open this with any program able to read text files like notepad. |
There are some brief comments - nothing to worry about. |
The main part is the important one to customize the settings. See below how to change them. |
