I have been working on a map.ini tutorial for the last 2 days, since I've seen there are almost none around. At least not on medium/advanced level.

So here it is!

 

http://www.the3rdage...tem-809?addview

 

It haves some basic explanation aswell as tips for advanced mappers, and even modders might find useful tricks into it.

Like:

•  Creating a map.ini and additional stuff needed
•  Getting familiarised with INI.big
•  Basic editing and Modules
•  Getting a new ability for an unit/hero
•  Creating a new spellbook
•  W3D module "hacks" to make your unit unique/creating "new" models
•  Other tricks like "new" commandbutton image, more than 6 spells for a hero, etc

Also if you have any further questions you can post them here and I can create new tutorials or answer you here.

If you ever feel you need help with your map.ini, I will try to be here to help you
