Hi!
I thinked is good write tutorial where tell peapoles how add new abilitys to heroes, so here you go:
(NOTE: You need to know basic of ini coding so read this and have final big editor: FinalBig editor Getting Started

Firstly thanks for everyone who helped me to start modding

in this tutorial we add to saruman word of power and we edit:

1. Saruman.ini
2. ExperienceLevels
3. CommandSet

ok, let´s start.

First go to gandalf.ini and copy there this code in enginering paraments:

;;; WORD OF POWER (BLUE RING BLAST) SPELL;;;
	Behavior = UnpauseSpecialPowerUpgrade ModuleTag_WordEnabler
		SpecialPowerTemplate = SpecialAbilityWordOfPower
		TriggeredBy = Upgrade_GandalfWordOfPower
	End
	Behavior = SpecialPowerModule ModuleTag_WordStarter	   
		SpecialPowerTemplate	  = SpecialAbilityWordOfPower
		UpdateModuleStartsAttack  = Yes
		StartsPaused				= Yes
	End
	Behavior = WeaponFireSpecialAbilityUpdate ModuleTag_WordWeaponFireUpdate   
		SpecialPowerTemplate	= SpecialAbilityWordOfPower
		WhichSpecialWeapon		= 1
		SkipContinue			= Yes

		UnpackTime			  = 1700 
		PackTime				= 1		
		FreezeAfterTriggerDuration = 2500; Hold AI for this long after we fire.
		
		AwardXPForTriggering	= 0		
		StartAbilityRange		= 80.0
		
		SpecialWeapon			= GandalfWordOfPower
	End

then go to saruman ini in data\ini\object\evilfaction\evilfactionunits.ini .

go to enginering paraments and paste copied code under

;;; 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

when pasted we go to ExperienceLevels.ini .

Find that code:

;--------------- ISENGARD HEROES --------------------------

		MaxRadius				= 200
		MaxSelectedUnits	= 40
	End	
END

and under rank line in level 10 put this code:

Upgrades		 Upgrade_GandalfWordOfPower

then go to command set and find this code:

CommandSet SarumanCommandSet
	1  = Command_SpecialAbilityIsengardWizardBlast
	2  = Command_SarumanFireball
	3  = Command_SpecialAbilityDominateEnemy
	4  = Command_SpecialAbilitySpeechCraft
	5  = Command_SarumanLeadership
	13 = Command_AttackMove
	14 = Command_Stop
	15 = Command_Guard
End

Under saruman leadership put this code:

6  = Command_SpecialAbilityWordOfPower

after this you are added to saruman word of power ability, Congrulations!!!

even though it's not really general as an example, I think most people will understand that you need to copy the behaviors as well as the button and the upgrade if needed.

Hi,

I have the grasp of this, but am having problems (don't we all lol).
I have enabled Elrond, and wanted to give him Legolas' skills (just as a starting point).

A quick copy from elrond.ini so you can see how I added one in:

;;; KNIFE FIGHTER SPECIAL POWER (Rank 3) ;;;
Behavior = UnpauseSpecialPowerUpgrade ModuleTag_KnifeEnabler
SpecialPowerTemplate = SpecialAbilityKnifeFighter
TriggeredBy = Upgrade_LegolasKnifeFighter
End

;Behavior = SpecialPowerModule ModuleTag_KnifeFighterPower
; SpecialPowerTemplate = SpecialAbilityKnifeFighter
; UpdateModuleStartsAttack = Yes
;End

Behavior = WeaponModeSpecialPowerUpdate ModuleTag_KnifeFighterPowerUpdate
SpecialPowerTemplate = SpecialAbilityKnifeFighter
Duration = 30000
AttributeModifier = LegolasKnifeFighterBonus
LockWeaponSlot = SECONDARY
StartsPaused = Yes
End

I also have him set up to start at level 10. Quick copy from elrond.ini

Behavior = ExperienceLevelCreate ModuleTag_MPLevelBonus
LevelToGrant = 10
MPOnly = Yes
End

My problem is that although he spawns at level 10 he still can't use the abilities he should be able to use which are added in at earlier levels (e.g. the arrow strike at level 7, training archers at level 4 and so on).

A quick copy from my experiencelevels.ini for you to see:

ExperienceLevel ElrondLevel7
TargetNames = ElvenElrond
RequiredExperience = 700 ;1200
ExperienceAward = 180
AttributeModifiers = HeroLevelUpDamage6
Rank = 7
LevelUpFx = FX:GandalfLevelUp1FX
;LevelUpOCL = OCL_GandalfLevelUp1OCL
Upgrades = Upgrade_LegolasArrowWind
SelectionDecal
Texture = decal_hero_good
Style = SHADOW_ALPHA_DECAL
OpacityMin = 50%
OpacityMax = 100%
MinRadius = 40 ;16
MaxRadius = 200 ;16
MaxSelectedUnits = 40 ;1
End
END

The commandbuttons appear fine in the palantir, they're just greyed out with the exception of the hawk strike which legolas also starts with (requiring no rank increase) - incidentally that works just fine.
Is starting him off at level 10 the problem? Does he somehow 'skip' the upgrade triggers?

Basically I want him to have all these specialpowers from the start, ranked at level 10. Any ideas?

Thanks!

Knife fighter won't work unless you change the animation states. Also, if you want the exact abilities Legolas has it would be easier just to add Elrond to Legolas' experience levels.

;----------- Legolas ------------------	
ExperienceLevel	LegolasLevel1
	TargetNames			=	RohanLegolas ElvenElrond 
	RequiredExperience			=	1	
	ExperienceAward			=	LEGOLAS_LVL1_EXP_AWARD
	Rank				=	1
	SelectionDecal
		Texture			=	decal_hero_good	
		Style			=	SHADOW_ALPHA_DECAL
		OpacityMin			=	50%	
		OpacityMax		=	100%
		MinRadius			=	40;16
		MaxRadius			=	200;16
		MaxSelectedUnits		=	40;1
	End	
End

If that doesn't fix it then let me know. If it does, you probably didn't add all the upgrades properly.

Thanks for the tip! Yep, that worked just fine. So, is it a problem with what I have written in experiencelevels.ini then, or in elrond.ini do you think?

The upgrade triggers match those of Legolas in elrond.ini:

TriggeredBy = Upgrade_LegolasArrowWind

Is that a problem? I haven't amended upgrades.ini purely because I thought this reference would match the same for Legolas' which already exist in upgrade.ini:

Upgrade Upgrade_LegolasArrowWind
Type = OBJECT
End

Don't know where I'm going wrong :( The experiencelevels.ini fix you've suggested is a solution for now, but just wondering what I got wrong for it to not have worked before.

As for skills: yep, I intend on removing knifefighter and replacing it with Aragorn's athelas heal ability, and also want to add passive leadership.
Eventually I'd like for him to be able to summon two hordes of elven warriors but I'm just getting to grips with the basics of modding first before I go messing with OCL settings and stuff.
My eventual dream would be to have an entirely separate playable Elven faction. There are mods already in the works for this but they seem to have run away with themselves over their plans and have crazy lists of changes. I just want pure and simply elven faction with the elven archers, elven barracks that train them, and some elven heroes like elrond and haldir (who I am planning to add and use legolas' model for).
But yep, that's background you probably don't care about lol!

I appreciate the tips and advice from the experts! :blink:

Ok, got it working with athelas and passive leadership by using the above trick you suggested.
The problem I'm having now is that because Aragorn's leadership comes at level 4 (the one I'm using), and because Legolas' train archers also comes at level 4, then the leadership is overriding the archer training. Seems like you can't link one unit's experiencelevels to multiple existing entries.
Do you know of a way around this?

Upgrades = Upgrade_LegolasTrainArchers Upgrade_AragornLeadership

Wouldn't that only work if Elrond had his own set of levels detailed in experiencelevels.ini ?
I tried that and they didn't seem to work: someone recommended I just link existing experience levels for Legolas to Elrond (see the above posts).

If I added what you say, it would have to be in Legolas' or Aragorns' existing experience levels wouldn't it?

So:

ExperienceLevel LegolasLevel4
TargetNames = RohanLegolas ElvenElrond
RequiredExperience = LEGOLAS_LVL4_EXP_NEEDED
ExperienceAward = LEGOLAS_LVL4_EXP_AWARD
AttributeModifiers = HeroLevelUpDamage3
Rank = 4
LevelUpFx = FX:GandalfLevelUp1FX
Upgrades = Upgrade_LegolasTrainArchers
;LevelUpOCL =
Upgrades = Upgrade_AragornLeadership
OCL_GandalfLevelUp1OCL
;Upgrades = Upgrade_HeroRadiateFear
SelectionDecal
Texture = decal_hero_good
Style = SHADOW_ALPHA_DECAL
OpacityMin = 50%
OpacityMax = 100%
MinRadius = 40 ;16
MaxRadius = 200 ;16
MaxSelectedUnits = 40 ;1
End
END

Is that what you mean: would that work? (It would give Legolas the leadership though wouldn't it...and I don't want that).

I did have an elrond entry in experiencelevels.ini (see my original post) but for some reason he couldn't use the abilities I'd assigned :( Don't know why...still waiting for info on that if anyone can help.

Ok, since I'm linking elrond's experience to Legolas and Aragorn's directly right now (see above posts), because for some reason when I tried having Elrond have his own section in experiencelevels.ini it didn't work, perhaps it's easiest if I post what I had written to see if anyone can spot the errors:

End
END

This didn't work: commandset.ini was fine because the powers showed up but they were greyed out as if Elrond hadn't reached the right rank (even though he starts at rank 10).
Note: Athelas ability is "StartActive = Yes" so isn't listed in experiencelevels.ini and it works just fine; its omitted from Aragorn's experience details too (although weirdly I noticed Legolas' Hawk Strike is a rank 1 ability...but there you go).

I can't see what's different except that the upgrades are on one line...is that all?
Also, I pasted it incorrectly. It was:

ExperienceLevel ElrondLevel4
TargetNames = ElvenElrond
RequiredExperience = 200 ;600
ExperienceAward = 100
AttributeModifiers = HeroLevelUpDamage3
Rank = 4
LevelUpFx = FX:GandalfLevelUp1FX
Upgrades = Upgrade_TrainArchers
;LevelUpOCL = OCL_GandalfLevelUp1OCL
;Upgrades = Upgrade_HeroRadiateFear
Upgrades = Upgrade_LegolasTrainArchers
Upgrades = Upgrade_AragornLeadership
SelectionDecal
Texture = decal_hero_good
Style = SHADOW_ALPHA_DECAL
OpacityMin = 50%
OpacityMax = 100%
MinRadius = 40 ;16
MaxRadius = 200 ;16
MaxSelectedUnits = 40 ;1
End
END

Yeah that´s all (i think)

ExperienceLevel ElrondLevel4
TargetNames = ElvenElrond
RequiredExperience = 200;600 
ExperienceAward = 100 
AttributeModifiers = HeroLevelUpDamage3
Rank = 4
LevelUpFx = FX:GandalfLevelUp1FX
;LevelUpOCL = OCL_GandalfLevelUp1OCL
Upgrades = Upgrade_LegolasTrainArchers Upgrade_AragornLeadership
SelectionDecal
Texture = decal_hero_good 
Style = SHADOW_ALPHA_DECAL
OpacityMin = 50% 
OpacityMax = 100%
MinRadius = 40;16
MaxRadius = 200;16
MaxSelectedUnits = 40;1
End
END

Fixed (again :blink:

)

You don't need another "Upgrade = " in front of Upgrade_AragornLeadership :blink:

ExperienceLevel ElrondLevel4
TargetNames = ElvenElrond
RequiredExperience = 200;600 
ExperienceAward = 100 
AttributeModifiers = HeroLevelUpDamage3
Rank = 4
LevelUpFx = FX:GandalfLevelUp1FX
Upgrades = Upgrade_TrainArchers 
;LevelUpOCL = OCL_GandalfLevelUp1OCL
Upgrades = Upgrade_LegolasTrainArchers Upgrade_AragornLeadership
SelectionDecal
Texture = decal_hero_good 
Style = SHADOW_ALPHA_DECAL
OpacityMin = 50% 
OpacityMax = 100%
MinRadius = 40;16
MaxRadius = 200;16
MaxSelectedUnits = 40;1
End
END

Try the attatched, I think it has what you want in it, but you will just have to copy/paste it into your ini.

I forgot to say..make sure you delete the old Elrond experience level (the original). If thats confusing, use the new one I attatched. Just replace your old one with this, if you don't have any other changes.
