I'm working on programs in Macromedia Flash, creating a new hero, etc. It was inspired by Gil-Galad's Horde builder, so I thought I should help out to. Right now I'm working on a new hero script, but I was wondering if anybody had any suggestions.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

yes a unit code , and a specialpower maker (don't know who's gonna make that but I know that someone is doing)

[TKelly]

Yes, that's in the hero/unit coding. You can choose what powers he has. Also a evenstar/one ring power maker will be next

where did you find tutorials?
I wanna learn

[TKelly]

I don't have any tutorials, I just use common scripts and common sense. I have a question for everybody though. Here are the animations you can base your hero on

-Aragorn
-Gandalf
-Gimli
-Gondor Archer
-Gondor Soldier
-Legolas
-Lurtz
-Orc Warrior
-Orc Archer
-Peasant
-Pippin
-Saruman

Any others that should be in version 1.0? More will obviously be in later versions, but any important ones?

Also, except to see it, maybe today, but definetly this week

The program for this is working, now I just need to upload all the animation text, the file size is 8.00 KB, so not large, yet it's as an .exe file, so you don't need the Flash plug-in. I should have it done by atleast in two days, if not tomorrow, if not today.

[ched]

those bunch of programs are seriously gonna simplify the modders work

[TKelly]

That's the point. I'm also am going to work on a building creator, a unit creator, a horde creator. All based on this. Then I'll work on the spell creator.

Then I'll join with Gil-Galad and we can make a mod creator.

[{IP}Gil-Galad]

Im already creating a hero creator and it has over 1000 unique things you can do.. Basically im adding every behavior and ability into it like...

make a weapon for hero or pick an existing one.
make armor for the hero or an existing one.
make moves based off premade ones like summons, attributive modifiers. etc
make commandSets and commandbuttons.
How many levels it can level up to and how much experience inbetween or base it off a prexisting one. etc etc bleh

anyway sorry to advertise in your topic but im just letting you no i already started one a while ago....of course no competition intended were to modders wanting to help the modding community

[ched]

mod creator

ok so basically i'd like to have a mod set in the Star Wars Universe

-> program opens WordPad and starts writing a scenario, at the same time, Renx pops up and starts modelling

[TKelly]

What aren't you working on, then I can work on that.

Also, we'll have two different versions then. A small, less capable, fast one, mine, and a large, satisfying, takes a little longer one, yours. I'm also going to try to make a formation maker with how I was hoping it would be, example seperate X and Y serepations.

[Kwen]

make one for the elven warrior anims too

[[OoM]TheNazgul]

i cant wait for these to be finished

[Kwen]

same here, its a real pain to go through ini's to make a hero lol

[TKelly]

anybody want to beta test it?

Note: It's not ready for a real hero making scenerio (of course it could make a new hero, just with a lot of restriction) just to make sure everybody would like the interface, along with making suggestions.

[TKelly]

The good thing about my programs is that there is no download, you can view it on the internet.

Note: A not finished version, it would be impossiblt to make a hero with, just what I have after 2 hours, nothing is registered, all I have is the program script in it, is at Hero Creator.swf

Note of the Note: This is only to see the interface, as I said before, it can't be used to make a hero yet.

Yet another note: I will be releasing a private alpha version to a few people, not everybody, but a few people, so if you want to check it out once it's done, just PM me. It will be able to make a hero, just not with an extreme amount of versatility yet. But once the program is complete, it will be extremely versatile.

So PM me if you want to alpha test it


AND another note: A tutorial will be made before the public beta version release.

If anybody wants to alpha test it, there are still a few spots open and I'm almost done. There are just a few "undefined"'s in the final code. Here's a sample of what it gives out.
NOTE: The undefines aren't the programs fault, I just haven't linked the system of the script to the input boxes. But here is what I have so far.

Another Note: I misspelled Biblo when putting it in. And yes, I did use the aragorn template, because all that I haven't done was linking all the buttons to change the variables and putting it in the code. But the system would have said "Undefined" if I had clicked on Pippin

[Kwen]

i would like to test this program

[TKelly]

ok, I'll send it to you in about 10 minutes, I'm just uploading all the codes from the .ini files

[TKelly]

Alpha Version finished, if you sent me a PM or posted you recieved an e-mail with a link to the online version, and a downloadable .exe version, online version is 45 KB, .exe is exactly 1 MB

Here's an image of all the codes in it, see all the things around the outside of it



And for those of you testing, you have to already have the OBJECT: code made in your .str file, in the next version, it'll make it for you
