Greetings. I am new to using forums and modding so please excuse any inconveniences on my part. I recently started modding BFME2 for fun and i've used a lot of topics on this forum that were great and i much appreciated them. Now i have found myself in need of guidance.
What i have done so far:
-added several hero powers to create a hero powers.
-changed the horde numbers and formation on some units
-modified the command points for several buildings
-modified the speed of some heroes
-modified spell books and swap spells
What i am looking for:
1. A tool or anyway to make the game read realtime updates to the files. For example i am in game and i am fine tunning the attack of my hero. What i did so far was change some value than restart game than build hero than try the changes. Is there a way to make the game reload the ini file instantly? (this will be enormous help)
2. While swapping the spells in spellbooks i wanted to add Avalanche spell to the dwarves instead of the Citadel and replaced Cloud Clear with Citadel instead. I managed to get it to work, fixed all the pre-required spells and now the spell can be bought provided you chose the right tree. The problem is when i try to cast it, the cursor changes to the correct shape(like when you try to cast it with the angmar faction) but its red anywhere on the map. I can't seem to find why that is.
