Event scripting

ok im trying to figure out a way to do some event scripting and not having much luck. i know alot of it is hard coded but the tutorials have scripts made out to the extent i need. all im looking to do is launch a specific map show some text up and go, bypassing the race selection screen, i have where it says the text for tutorials in the string folder but i cant find where they are called up. my best guess is they are the dxscript files in app data but i cant open them up to be readable

not possible to my knowledge. it least not to the extent you want it. not without editing hard code at any rate.

Yeah, that sort of stuff is only used in the tutorials at present. If/when we get an opportunity to do a campaign, it would probably become more accessible to users then.

Entrenchment isn't the only micro expansion for the game.  The next one will work on diplomacy (I think it's too predictable as it is).  If they make a 3rd expansion for a campaign, we'll see event scripting then.

yeah well see thats actualy what im doing is making a campaign mod with a good storyline. as is i can jerryrig some stuff using ingame req's but the biggest holdup is i want to eliminate player choice of race so it just launches
