Two questions, if anyone can help:
1)How can I add more maps to Custom Battles. Specifically, do Multiplayer user maps(not sieges and the likes, of course, just battlefields) can be added to Custom Battles and how?
2)How can I edit the Single Player battlefield scenes? I am not talking about big editing, just a buildng or sth and inrease the battlefield proportions for larger scenes. Kinda like Blood and Steel mod did, if you know.
Thanks in advance!

1. Look at module_constants and you'll see a quick_battles_begin/end somewhere. Add scenes, then edit those constants accordingly
To prevent the icons for those scenes from bugging out, find the icons for quick_battles (can't remember the name, but they're simple enough to find in moduke_meshes) and add more. There's a constant for that too.
2. Go to module_scripts and search for scene_to_use. There's a script that picks scenes based on terrain (thank the Lord it's not hardcoded) and it's really easy to set up a randomizer. That way you could add scenes that aren't randomly generated, and have them appear on a randomised basis.
The best thing this can be used for is forcing the player onto a group of preset scenes if they're above a certain Z coord. That way you'd prevent the silly lumpy terrain generation (to an extent, as terrain height is based off proximity to mountain tiles rather than Z coordinates, but in a logically designed map, they're often the same)
Another fun thing to do is to make some bridge scenes, and make them appear when the player is near a bridge icon. Inspired by archer.
The textures (for the ground anyway) only look really good because of the shader using them (I mean they are nice textures though). I believe Jaakpo is using napoleonic wars parallax mapping shaders (again for the ground)mike56 said:

Thank you for your help La Grandmaster
I think a big crazy bump or parralax map could be distort a texture (diffuse) it's realy difficult.
i prefer a light effet question of taste.

A++ and continue the scening ! it's difficult at the beginning !
That is essentially the function of normal and parallax mapping, to displace/distort the diffuse texture depending on light position and viewpoint. But you are very correct, strong parallax effects can have ruin textures.FantasyWarrior said:I think a big crazy bump or parralax map could be distort a texture (diffuse) it's realy difficult.
