Do i need to extract the entire data.pak file if I just want to change something minor, like tweak Wind Dancer stats so I would choose Wardancer sometimes? Or just the game mechanics folder.

Hey, I want to ask if it is possible to make a new terrain (transparent terrain, no texture, but I want to choose my own minimapcolour) and integrate it into a map.
Any ideas ?


You can replace terrain textures, like everyother texture and in the same way, visit the Texture editing tutorial here, it's sticked

Hey thx, didn't expect to get an answer to that question

but... he says it in the first sentences:
Since we can’t insert our own models and animations into the game
Huuuh...


OK
I tell you what I wanna do. Maybe you got to know that I want to make a map out of an academy town:
http://img411.imageshack.us/img411/2425/raksha.jpg
http://img149.imageshack.us/img149/7008/nurh.jpg
http://img3.imageshack.us/img3/6803/nebiros.jpg

Now, I thought that when it comes to a battle on the map, it would take place in the desert or what terrain I ever choose. But that is illogical. So I want to make my own arenas for this map (With the tutorial of a guy here) and integrate them into my map. Then I want to link them with a terrain so that they show up.

BUT then these arenas would show up in other maps too, and I don't want that.
Is there really no possibility to create a new terrain ?
Maybe it would work with scripting areas ?

<Item>
<Kind>rangeattack_wall</Kind>
 <Anim href="/_(BasicSkelAnim)/Creatures/Haven/Archer/rangeattack_wall.(BasicSkelAnim).xdb#xpointer(/BasicSkelAnim)"/>

Can't experiment now, but it can be done, if you give the hero Avatar of Death spec. and change the way that avatar looks (so it looks like phenix). I think ou can increase the stats dpending on the spell power as well. I just can't look into the game files right now.

Thanks for reply
I also try this way some time ago but thats not what I want exectle in this way only Arantir will recive benefits of leveled Phenix besides Avatar of Death alredy well suit to Arantir its looks like it cannot changeable without of exe hexing

BTW found way how add normal anim to cretures with ABILITY_RIDE_BY_ATTACK need create copy of -arena-move.xdb of creture and rename
it to -arena-special-move.(BasicSkelAnim).xdb after thats creture will run normal and other will recive hit if the neighbor to move route
So third question answered self

Hm... you'll have to retype your post I can't read it all...


Turning Avatar of Death to spell, for every hero can't be done, if you mean this.

Mod Request [Werewolves]

Is someone able able to make a Werewolf Mod? The mod would replace Zombies with Werewolves, the wolves would be roughly based on  
[url=http://psatkha.narod.ru/creature_246.html] Psatkha's Gnoll NCF creature [/url] (Using the Orc warrior body with wolf head)

I attempted to make 1, but Exams and lack of modding skill mean I probably I don't have the time to finish it.

I can give a you file with: * Alot of the folder structure set up
                           * Half done textures (the alpha mostly)
                           * Some basic models
                           * A list with some ideas/progress
                           (where I was heading)
                           + A few other small things for the Mod

I really want this mod but don't have the time/ability to make it.

If someone could make it, it would be really great

Thanks

I had a look at crimson Necropolis.
I would prefer one more like the Gnoll, just darker and more necro.
I did a bit but gave up, but I have some ideas of want I want.

Noone can help me with my problem ? Ok, later then. Anyway, I have another question:

I want to ask if there is a possibility to make the underground look like the overground for just one map, so that I can work in the underground like I do it in the overground. Is that possible ?

Edit1: Huuuhh....

Edit2: Oh plz...

Sorry, I know this topic looks fairly dead but we can safely blame Ubi.

Nobody here knows of any way to make the underground look like the overground. As far as I know it's completely hardcoded. But you can do the reverse, making the overground look subterranean.

Oh. So we won't have a cool cloudy and dark underground with rain for Al-Safir ? Man, that's sad.

But making a new terrain shouldn't be that difficult, is it ?

So from what iv gathered so far, to edit unit stats i have to go to GameMechanics folder. And that is found in your data/data folder right? aAnd in order to read whats inside those folders you need to open them with WinRaR.

   Is that all correct?


Edit 10/24/09

  Holy crap i think it worked!!

Well i was finaly able to find the skelton_archer files in data/data/gamemechanics/creatures/creatures/necropolis/skeleton_archer folder. And im able to read and change the certain areas of the creature such as attack and defense and hitpoints. But when i try and save it i dont know where it should go?

 it has auto-set it to a different path othere than the one up above. And when i try to manualy "save as" to the path above, i can get to data/data/ and then there are no folders or files showing.


           ....help?

                          P.S. im stil running Vista
