tortellini 1 #1 Posted April 4, 2009 Hey guys, I have a question for modders, how about an editor? Is it possible for you guys to create an editor where we all can place units, buildings and heroes wherever we want? Like in Age of Empires or somethin like that.. Would be a nice idea or not? Do you all agree or not? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dragonnik1 3 #3 Posted April 7, 2009 Hey guys, I have a question for modders, how about an editor? Is it possible for you guys to create an editor where we all can place units, buildings and heroes wherever we want? Like in Age of Empires or somethin like that.. Would be a nice idea or not? Do you all agree or not? See till nw with modding, following things can be chngd: unit train, unit attributes, weapons, BGs, buildings BG. Graphics.. But till nw i havent heard tht we can place the unit some where in the map. But i had read a post by "Zymeth" sayin he was able to edit the saved game, and was also able to put the units near water gather points. So some how if we get info from him hw he did it...(i guess using hex editor)..thn it should be possible..so suppose if chose freedom..as a map..but doing a trial error we can knw wat adress points to which point/location of map if we can make a tool which will help others to do tht...ne way willl req thorugh patience n inputs frm all the modders...to do this... So to wrap up according to me it should be possible Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FIRE4 9 #4 Posted April 7, 2009 I think he meant to make the editor to have units in the objects menu or somthin. And so when u make a map or edit one to be able to put units in it so when u start a skirmish they to be there at the beginning of the game. Is this what u want? If its this then i think it will be very hard to make it true. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah...in a way...like world editor impossible....makin a 3d tool n all...tht is askin for more.. i was thinkin frm basic functionality point...if tht is possible... I was thinkin like pic up the ne current map..shw him 2d area..n thn use tht for creating it... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dragonnik1 3 #7 Posted April 9, 2009 yes thats right, thats my point hmm but it isnt impossible right? Yeah i guess...so... if its jst the matter of army units...n placing it...But we surely need Zymeth's help.. Here is my thinkin hw it is possible... chose a map..n start playin game..chose..AI's...n thn...save game... Thn use som tool to edit the game n place the units... OOOH..!!!!..jst one thought came to my mind..what abt mulitpayer games..thy can't be saved...!!!.. Hmm thn how can we edit tht...??...i guess tht is not possible.... Umm..but if we can sum how hack the setting of the game...i mean when we chose...initial "starting army"..so there we can chose..what can be statring army of each clan...But here u too u wont be able to chose the location of the units...... Hmm...so frm multiplayr point of view i guess this is not possible.... But wat exactly r u planing to do.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hmm...so frm multiplayr point of view i guess this is not possible.... But wat exactly r u planing to do.. It isnt at all impossible I already know how to change the starting armys for both multiplayers and campaign maps, but to think of a editor that is a different thing. I never was able to find how to edit units spawning points or their waypoints, most of the information is coded in the map itself and some of the stuff in the script dlls but the worldeditor is far from being complete to let me play with this.

{BR-AS}DarK-BLaDe 0 #12 Posted July 6, 2009 maybe we can overwrite something like a rabbit or bat in the br dat. into a swordsman for example.we could overwrite all things of that rabbit or bat apart from the name and unit code.but the swordsmen will never get a portrait.thats maybe a problem...

If you replace rabbit or bats in the map, i dont think u will be control tht, i think they wont even attack.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
