SP Fantasy A WHFB Mod for M&B (Recruiting & Mod THEME discussion)

[Worbah]

Are there going to be special characters directly from WHFB? I remember reading about them in WD some years ago.

 

[Pjoo]

Download some programs (they are free) and read a tutorial about them and you will be very helpfull, specialy if you learn pyton 

I know python. I can do some easy stuff like troops and stuff if you want.

@Worbah: Never tought of that, but an interesting idea, maybe not the main character (not enough freedom), but posibly joinable NPCs...

@Pjoo: That is great! Just keep working so you will know more and you will be more than helpfull! I will keep you informed as soon as Luigi posts what we're going to do now...

I like that map, but I am missing one base thing... Forests! Ye Old World is covered with them, so add some of those. And you will have to put bridges on all those rivers (I suggest you check Thorgrims Example map thread for info or just PM him and ask politely).

there's plenty of forest on that one. basically all of the Empire is all forest, as well as Loren forest. but I've seen 2 more forests (as well as a small mountain range)  I can add from some more detailed maps.

to add the actual bridge icon, I believe you have to make a town there. I can however, make one tile of land breaking the river so it can be crossed. give me a hint as to where you'd want them though, as I have no idea where the cities will be located

yeah, that's what I meant. And I'm not sure you can force the player to be a specific character.

true, would ruin the non-linar gameplay

and, on a second note, I have started playing aound with BRFedit and hope to learn it quickly

Me want Tyrion! Me High Elf fan!

 

[Senran]

Maybe instead of "Bretonnian sharpshooter" they could be called "Bretonnian Villein", since that's what the unit champion is called.
I can help you with insignificant backround stuff like this, I have lots of warhammer books and stuff so feel free to ask...

Ok, I did not remember it cause I have no bretonnian army book.

I started making red warhorse for bretonnia. There is never enough horses for bretonnia.

EDIT: no screens, as my war horse is too shiny and I can't take it out with my modding skills

Well... I could change Marnid and Borcha into some special charactors.... although why would the prince of Elves fight along side a mere human?
Actually, I could make one of them Felix Jeager couldn't I.... Hmmmm..... *thinking*
We should have a vote on what kind of special charactor we want.
For now I've just got Marnid as a Brittonian archer and Borcha as an Empire swordsman (I think thats what he is anyway..) behind the bars.

@Senran: hmm... thanks for that, I'll change it as soon as pos. Keep the information coming!!!

One request: Could anyone of you kind hearts make a Brittonian Grail Helmet? Something like a helmet from Luigi's mod with a cup, (grail actually..) stuck on the top. And then we can give it to the Grail Knights! Genius!!! Thanks in advance. 
Adep.

I'd avoid special characters altogether to be honest, otherwise it'll just be silly.  Much more sensible to have NPCs such as an Engineer, Warrior Priest, Witch Hunter, Questing Knight etc.

It isn't really hard to make new ones either...

 

[Khal]

Yay, an WH mod make the two sides of the war Bretonnia and Empire and put The green knight in the tavern in the Bretonnian "king castle"
(please excuse my english, im only 13 and live in Sweden)

 

[Senran]

The Green knight is a Spirit of the Land(or whatever you want to call him) he just appears to kick some beastman ass, and then he just vanishes into thin air...
Hmm...I just got an really bad idea... You can't make enemy NPC heroes to wander the land can you?

 

[Blasius]

Dunno about that, maybe... will asks sobebody with more xp... Good idea anyway...

 

[Senran]

Is my experience not enough?
Well the thing is, he is a GHOST!
Proof!
A ghost!
He's a ghost I tell ya!

 

[octoburn]

I think he meant experience with scripting for M&B. far as I know, it's not yet possible to have NPCs moving around the map on their own.

 

[Senran]

Oh yeah I actually asked something earlier on...
I didn't sleep during the night, and got to answer a message with my lack-of-sleep-dilusions-of-invincibility...

 

[Pjoo]

Possible, atleast one unkillable troop(with name like tyrion or green knight). And that is not really good idea, It makes me mad when I can't kill someone on the map completely...

What the hell would be the point in making something that you can fight unkillable?

Edit: I mean: "I agree. What the hell would be the point in making something that you can fight unkillable anyway?"
