You want to do all this Via-Worldbuilder? or INI?

[Sindarin]

Ini...
I need it for the whole game not for a map only ...
Any link or suggestion?!?!?

1 - I need add a building called KING PALACE in mordor faction ( find it in WB -ByNativeTipe/MORDOR/Structure )... and enable it to build something...

You would have to make a commandset for the object (if it is already an object).

2 - I would like to know how to add a few new units (existing in WB like MORDOR TRIBUTE CART ) and add it in some building...

To add a new unit, You need a model, texture then you code it as a object make a commandset and such forit then add it to a buildings commandset.

3 - How can i build unit like balrog or Cave troll Huge ( present in WB ) buildable?!?!

For the balrog you can add his object name to playertemplate.ini faction of your choice. I would suggest removing his timer though. Cave troll huge is what????

As i answerd them very short and quickish, I would suggest you start reading tutorials on T3A's Begginers and INI pages.

Good luck, If you get stuck just ask for help!

[Sindarin]

i've tried...but with any result...i need more specific indication...

1-if King Palace (for example) is present in the WB does it mean that it is an object?
where i find it in INI.BIG??

2- the same is for unit? where i find a unit present in the WB in INI.BIG??

3-ok...question solved... :-) a troll Huge is a very big troll present in mordor faction unit in World Builder...

Let me know something more about other question plz!!! :-)

1&2 : look up the names found in WB in your ini folder (extracted from INI.big)

[Sindarin]

if I understand correctly I should do this way

1 - Look if any object (structure)is present in ini
2 - make command set for that object (structure)
3 - make a command button for porter

This is all?!?!?

[BigRedKane]

Once you've found your object in your INI.big you'll need to add the code to the powers or upgrades to it, unless they're already in there. I suggest looking at other object inis to see how this is implimented.

You will usually need to create both commandbutton.ini enteries AND Commandset.ini enteries for your object (units and structures). The only time you don't need to create a command button is if the power or upgrade you're going to use already has a command button and it functions how you want it.
You always need to create a command set for a new unit or structure....unless you just want it sitting there looking pretty and not doing much else...lol.

That's the basics anyways as far as I know.

The building object inis are usually found in the object folder under either good faction or evil faction and then Structures folder (both factions have this folder).

hope this info helps.

Who can help me here?!?!? :( :( :(

[JEV3]

CB stands for CommandButton right? Show us the commandbutton you made in commandbutton.ini. Also, are you just moving some elves to a differant barracks or are these new units? If they are new, you should make sure that it says Side = Elves under them.

Hope this helps,
JEV3

[Sindarin]

Here the command button...

CommandButton Command_ConstructElvenHighBarracks
	Command	   		= DOZER_CONSTRUCT
	Object				= HighBarracks
	TextLabel				= CONTROLBAR:ConstructElvenBarracks
	ButtonImage			  = BEElvenBarracks
	ButtonBorderType 		= BUILD 
	DescriptLabel			= CONTROLBAR:ToolTipElvenBarracks
	Radial		   		= Yes  
End

I'm just moving some elves to a differant barracks...but with different barrack skin...
Something wrong here?

[JEV3]

Does it have a new build cursor, maybe it does do something but because there is no cursor you can't see it. I wouldn't know where it would reference it, but I believe someone else here might.

Hope this helps,
JEV3

[Sindarin]

I hope that...
I'll be w8ing someone...JEV3 Thx a lot for help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
