Title: Fix for hidden parts appearing in botlab
Post by: Clickbeetle on May 27, 2008, 09:13:13 PM
So, I've heard a lot of reports lately about components being visible that are supposed to be hidden.  Some of them crash when you click on them, and some are just annoying because they clutter the list or make it hard to tell what's stock and what's not (especially in DSL).

Just recently this suddenly happened to mine and FB's copy of DSL, and we were able to figure out what caused it.  It's a modification FB did for his cheat pack to RA2.cfg.

To fix the problem, open RA2.cfg (in the main RA2 folder), and find the line that says "AIHelpers=1".  Change this to "AIHelpers=0".

Firebeetle's cheats will still work, but no messages will be able to be displayed in the F9 window.  You can always change AIHelpers back to 1 whenever you want to use the cheats, but it's best to keep AIHelpers=0 when not cheating.

Kind of late to ask but, I wans't able to find the AIHelpers line in my .cfg file. Could I just add it in or do i need a more recent patch? (I used NO_CD 1.0 according to the DSL install instructions)

If the AIHelpers line isn't in RA2.cfg, then you shouldn't have a problem with hidden parts showing up.  If you do, it's because of some other reason.

Indeed, but for some reason, I am getting some white spaces (most of which crash in the mechanics section)...  I'll reinstall and see if that helps.

I can't open the CFZ file, how do I do it if I don't have the program?

Okay... I can't find the line in there either, but I deleted the Components.cfz file like I was told to in the other topic...

Neither I couldn't find the line. Works if you remove the components.cfg though.
