Modifying/editing Heroes 4
Hello.I am not an expert when it comes to the technical part,so I have the next questions :
1.) When using the campaign editor,how do you select "costum alignments"?.I've noticed on some maps you are not allowed to change the team of the color.
2.) If you can choose "costum alignments" how do you enable all teams?.On some team colors you can only choose two or three factions.
3.) How to enable/or disable some town buildings?.
4.) How to create an underground with the campaign editor?.(the other side of the map)
5.) How to change the heroes starting level and the skills they have at the beginning?.
6.) How to use h4util on something else then creating random maps?.
7.) After creating maps with h4util,how do you make the AI complete the turns normally?.On maps created with this application,I've noticed the computer moves very slow at it's turns.
Any question answered would be appreciated.

ad. 1&2) Could you give an example of a problematic map and what exactly you want to do?
ad. 3) Double-click a town, tab buildings, tick non-standard, click in boxes near buildings.
ad. 4) It's in 'Campaign' tab. (near 'File', 'Edition', etc.)
ad. 5) In general, double-click an object to edit its properties.
ad. 6) Read h4util.doc. Options are on page 3, right below the changelog. Usage is explained with examples in next pages. I like the -p (write map's scripts to *.c and *.h files) and -a -w (vice versa) options. Some other option lets you create picture mini-maps.
ad. 7) No idea. My wild guess is that there are many scripts that give the AI different bonuses and the abundance of scripts slows the game down.
If you post a specific example, perhaps somebody will be able to help you. And I think you have a better chance of getting an answer to this one by posting it on Celestialheavens.

On a map called "Das Auge des Osiris",the red,blue,orange,purple and teal player the costum alignments option is blocked,and on the green player you can only choose between Death and Chaos.
http://www.maps4heroes.com/heroes4/maps.php?keywords=Das+Auge+des+Osiris&type=&size=&difficulty=&sort=2
What id like to do is to be able to choose any faction on any color available.Also,these team colors should be available for me too (not only the computer)
8.) Also,how do you add/or remove players in the game?.

Such option wouldn't make any sense on that map. The option just affects alignment of some random towns and random heroes, perhaps also random creatures. That is, if the mapmaker gives that particular player any random towns/heroes/creatures.
You can also set that option if player has towns of more than 1 alignment, even if he has no random towns/heroes/creatures. Afaik, that option will then not change anything.
ad. 8) To add a player, add anything that belongs to that player. Remove: Try removing everything that belongs to that player.
