Hey !! Nobody understand my problem ?
Did I make an error in this list ??
I just want to run my own mod but it's don't work



-I download the INI file of the tutorial (the prepared file)
-I make a few changements in the WATER.INI ; I just modify the cost of the Haradrim and Rhun's soldiers in order to begin with something cool.gif
-I save this WATER.INI (so wich was modified) as a BIG.file with BIGFinal Editor.
-I named it HaradRhun
-I put this new BIG.file in "My Battle for Middle-Earth folder" (I tried also to put this one in the folder of the game but... It's the same result)
-I create a new shortcut with the command -mod HaradRhun.big
-I run the game with this shortcut, and... There is no modification sad2.gif sad2.gif sad2.gif sad2.gif

Please help me

[Lauri]

uhm, you didn't include any other file? Only water.ini? Then that's your problem include all the prepared files

[King of the East]

Oh okay, so I modify the water.ini and after I put this file and all others in the HaradRhun.BIG ?

I'll try this

Thank's for the answer i was beginning to desesperate

Thks

[Lauri]

the thing about the files you've downloaded, is that it's all renamed So, the rhun and haradrim troops need to get the renamed Macro's, and if you don't have them in that, there's no way they could be read

1) HARADRIM_BUILDCOST is default.... M_HARADRIM_BUILDCOST is the new one... the Haradrim in the game uses the default, and the haradrim in the files you've downloaded uses the new one, that's why you need to include their files to

[King of the East]

Okay thanks.
So, I have the impression that it runs (cool !!! )

But I have a last problem (and question).

I have modified the prices of Rhun and Haradrim troops as you say (The M is here --- M_HARADRIM_BUILDCOST)

but in the mod there is a strange thing, the haradrims are now 240 (price) and the Rhun soldiers are always at 400.

I modify that ; (prices, health and buildtime for Haradrims) and only price for Rhun soldiers.

I also try to make of these haradrims pikeman, (so as you can see there is no characteristics about the remote shooting in the haradrim stats) but they are still fighting at distance

Can you explain to me why the prices are not those I put in the code (Must I modify another file in addition of the water.ini?) and how can I delete the remote shooting of the haradrims please ?

To finish, I have a last question.
You say that I need to put the INI files in the order of the original game. But how can we see this order ? What is the list that we must do in the BIGFINAL editor ?


Thanks and sorry for all these questions. In all cases, you are very nice to answer à all this ^^

well, you know the prepared inis you downloaded? You put them ALL in the RhunHarad.big, and in the same manner as they are extraceted.... try to type in gafdgandgi instead of the 350 on the buildcost... if you get into the game, then your files aren't read.... that means you have a problem with your shortcut

[King of the East]

What is the gafdgandgi ?

[Lauri]

the same as hdshgfdh gteshmgutsoignsodyivnsutnugtsohogursnngfdsohngsuionsontgsnohnggjbn suthgs905yhsunjsgnlurhgsuoithnsjtg

[King of the East]

OH OKAAAY ^^

[King of the East]

Pfou it's annoying I don't understand why my modification are not read by the game.
It's annoying because it seems to be a good shortcut

"C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\La Bataille pour la Terre du Milieu™\lotrbfme.exe" -mod HaradRhun.big

(Its the same thing for the french game because the others mods i have downloaded are running with identical shortcut)
Did you see any error ?

After concerning the INI I think it's good (I try 2 things; -Firstly I try while putting the INI folder I've download
(So in finalbig editor the list of all INI is here but i don't know if it is the good order)


-Secondly, I try to put all this INI one after the other in final big editor

I don't know why it's don't run, it's because I don't put in the good order the INI ? It's because of my shortcut ?

[Lauri]

and where is your mod located?

[King of the East]

It is located in two folders, one is the french floder "La Bataille pour la Terre du Milieu"
the second is in an english folder that i've created "My Battle for Middle-earth Files"
I also put it in the game folder (Sait-on jamais )

[Lauri]

well, there's your problem You put it into a folder you created
you should put it in the "My Battle for Middle-earth Files" that you have in French dunno what the hell that is, but probably something like this:
"(My) Bataille pour la Terre du Milieu (Files)"
