How to "unlock" the B&I Lions Tour in Rugby08

[man007]

Awesome stuff :Blinky: , Huge work both of you :bowdown: :bowdown: :bravo: :bravo: ,I knew that it was possible.

It's possible to do anything, but we don't use the programs that the programmers do for certain files like .rfe. I could even change the animations for the sidestep probably, if i could get into the file.

Hi Guys,

I won the Ten Nations with the team that I think the tournament was made for: Argentina.

Here is a screen showing the hidden trophy for that tournament in 08.



Now my question is how do i get that trophy to show in the Cabinet collection?

yea, the sidesteps are a little "Jason Robinsonarized".Now there is a perfect room for a Magners League patch with the 10 Nations cup activated

The only issue is that Magners League has home and away fixtures, whereas Ten Nations plays just once.

The trophy cabinet file is 736c62963c1315b00ff9f83229e1b518.fsh. I am sure it has the 10 Nations graphic, there is just no text to show it.. but it is a hidden mode and therefore like the Lions Tours, the graphic has been removed, but it's file is still there to add a trophy into.

Well I tried manually importing the Ten Nations image file and that didn't work, but even worse, I also tried to import the original 736c.fsh from 06 and even that didn't show the trophy successfully. It did a good job of replacing the Webb Ellis Trophy with a generic one though. <_<

The games do not share the same files, often they are similar and they fit but are not 100%. 06 is very different from 08. I am wondering if we can actually import things from 08 into 06.. i know you can edit almost anything.. but it needs some more stadiums specifically. It does not have a lot of the 08 stadiums. I prefer 06's game engine.

The rules are correct, the gameplay seems more like rugby and the animations are not to predictable.. whereas 08 is almost like a 'modern' game.

Plus it has all the modes. I'm using it to make Legends Patch and it looks awesome so far. I have some small issues, like the shirts look 'shiny' on the shoulders, so they look like shiny fabric, and the resolution of my menu logos doesn't seem to improve them, it makes them worse.. but i think this might be to do with my wide monitor.. i can fix that res up with ross' screen res tip.

Are you planning to include this to your mod?

 

[Fa'atau82]

Well 10 Nations is a made-up competition, and at the moment i can't get it off Tri-Nations files. So at the moment it's not working.

Hi Guys,

I've just had a look and seen that there are away kits for Argentina and Australia.

Anyway to activate them? What files are involved with the enabling/disabling of kits?

 

[Fa'atau82]

We tried. They are hard-coded. The files are there, and the xml file that assigns them doesn't override the away kit lockout for Argentina and Australian teams. We have tried. It is possibly an rfe issue again. I don't think they are in 06 either, so we cant even use 06's file.

Awesome job on this mod, THANKS! However, Filefront is suspending operations March 30 so you guys might want to move these to a different site like megaupload.com. I was able to download it though just now and I'll attach it here:

All credit to the modders!

Cheers Adam, good thinking. I am using Yahoo Groups now. It's great for small files, i put on 3 kits, and that took up 1%.. so i can get at least a hundred kits on.

 

[RobbieD_PL]

If it would be easier, i'm thinking of making an exe installer for the files required to activate these two tournaments, as well as the two teams.

Also, another bug that i've noticed with the Ten Nations. The teams are sorted by the number of Bonus Points a team has, rather than the total number of points.

Ive used the file to unlock the lions but how do I get the menus to display the Lions not the S14 Lions and how do I get to pick my own lions team?

 

[msey0002]
