HI

I want mmy emperor to dominate the heroes from the enemy. Is It possible? If yes, how?

[Mathijs]

Dominate in what way? Scare them?

[N19HtmAr3]

No, I guess he means:

You know Saruman's dominate-power, which makes enemy units change to your side for a short while... That power but for heroes...

[firmus]

yes I mean this.

I don't know if this will work but you can try it.

This is the dominate code that is in Saruman's code:

;;; DOMINATE SPECIAL POWER;;;
  Behavior = UnpauseSpecialPowerUpgrade ModuleTag_DominateEnabler
  SpecialPowerTemplate  = SpecialAbilityDominateEnemy
  TriggeredBy    	= Upgrade_SarumanDominate
	End

	Behavior = SpecialPowerModule ModuleTag_DominateEnemySpecialPowerModule
  SpecialPowerTemplate  = SpecialAbilityDominateEnemy 
  StartsPaused  	= Yes
  UpdateModuleStartsAttack	= Yes
  InitiateSound  	= SarumanVoiceDominate
	End

  Behavior = DominateEnemySpecialPower ModuleTag_DominateEnemySpecialPower
        SpecialPowerTemplate  = SpecialAbilityDominateEnemy 
  UnpackingVariation  	= 1
  StartAbilityRange  	= 200.0
  
  DominateRadius    = 60;100;150
  DominatedFX    	= FX_SarumanDominateTargets
  TriggerFX    	= FX_SarumanDominateTrigger
  
  UnpackTime    	= 2000
  PreparationTime    = 1   
  FreezeAfterTriggerDuration	= 2500; Hold AI for this long after we fire.  
    End

Try adding this code to it:

 AcceptanceFilter  	= ANY +CAVALRY +INFANTRY +HERO  -STRUCTURE -CASTLE_KEEP -BASE_FOUNDATION

So then it will look like this:

;;; DOMINATE SPECIAL POWER;;;
  Behavior = UnpauseSpecialPowerUpgrade ModuleTag_DominateEnabler
  SpecialPowerTemplate  = SpecialAbilityDominateEnemy
  TriggeredBy    	= Upgrade_SarumanDominate
	End

	Behavior = SpecialPowerModule ModuleTag_DominateEnemySpecialPowerModule
  SpecialPowerTemplate  = SpecialAbilityDominateEnemy 
  StartsPaused  	= Yes
  UpdateModuleStartsAttack	= Yes
  InitiateSound  	= SarumanVoiceDominate
	End

  Behavior = DominateEnemySpecialPower ModuleTag_DominateEnemySpecialPower
        SpecialPowerTemplate  = SpecialAbilityDominateEnemy 
  UnpackingVariation  	= 1
  StartAbilityRange  	= 200.0
  
  DominateRadius    = 60;100;150
  AcceptanceFilter  	= ANY +CAVALRY +INFANTRY +HERO  -STRUCTURE -CASTLE_KEEP -BASE_FOUNDATION
DominatedFX    	= FX_SarumanDominateTargets
  TriggerFX    	= FX_SarumanDominateTrigger
  
  UnpackTime    	= 2000
  PreparationTime    = 1   
  FreezeAfterTriggerDuration	= 2500; Hold AI for this long after we fire.  
    End

Try it out and see what happens... though I doubt it will work.

i didn't work:

unknown field 'AcceptanceFilter' in block #Object'

Error parsing field' AcceptanceFilter' in block Object in file 'Data\INI\Object....etc.

[Kelso]

I've never seen the tag AcceptanceFilter anywhere before....

[Phil]

I've never seen the tag AcceptanceFilter anywhere before....

It's used here:

Behavior = LevelGrantSpecialPower

I can understand Gothmog's suggestion, but I would however try:

ObjectFilter	= ANY +CAVALRY +INFANTRY +HERO  -STRUCTURE -CASTLE_KEEP -BASE_FOUNDATION

But that may not be working either...
