Modding. How ... ?

[Pug]

I'm sorry if this is the umpteenth time a new modder has posted something like this, but I'm getting desperate. I tried PMing people, and tutorials - but they are incredibly scarce and most require background knowledge. I need help with modding - I have the ModuleSystem (with python files), Wngs 3d, a Model Importer, Thorgrim's map editor, and patience.

Could someone pls help? (Or ban me from the forum, it's your choice)

get effidian's unofficial editor that'll get you started pretty nicely, it's very easy to use, start changing a few things from a copy the "native mod" and once you get the hang of it build a whole mod yourself

Start with the unofficial editor and take a look at the different files. Get a feel for what file changes what. Then play with stat changes for items and troops just to see what the ranges and possibilities are....

Once you feel like playing with Python you just open the modules files with "Edit with IDLE" after right clicking on them.

You can find a list of all the commands you can use in the operations header file. That should be enough to keep you busy.

Thanks guys - I've got the unofficial editor now - just getting hold of Framework 2.0 so I can use it. Cheers!
