SelectPortrait = HPGaladriel2	
ButtonImage = HIGaladriel2

You created new buttons for Galadriel?
i.e. a new hero portait and hero image

You should post them here; so we can see if you coded them wrong

Ah, I think you hit on it downfall. I don't think he DID make new button art. Delete the 2 from the end of those lines and it should work.

That sounds reasonable! I don't remember changing them. !


Now how do I give her levels. Hehe.

Well this is what I see (I hope this code works)

[Lord of the Rings Junkie]

Like I said, try changing back the command buttons and commandsets back to the way they were. Also try an unmodified Galadriel.ini

Do I need to make a new command button?


And could someone give me one?

[Lord of the Rings Junkie]

No, you can use the same one as ring hero Galadriel.

She still won't appear after changing everything back.

Here we go....
Replace your current Elven fortress Hero revive slots commandset with this:

//Heroes
	14	= Command_RingHeroReviveSlot
	15	= Command_CreateAHeroReviveSlot		// Note we also need an extra slot for the Create A Hero
	16	= Command_GenericReviveSlot1		//Revives any hero. Use Slot1-Slot8 and keep them UNIQUE within the same commandset! 
	17	= Command_GenericReviveSlot2	
	18	= Command_GenericReviveSlot3	
	19	= Command_GenericReviveSlot4	
	20	= Command_GenericReviveSlot5	
	21	= Command_GenericReviveSlot6	
	22	= Command_GenericReviveSlot7
	23	= Command_GenericReviveSlot8	
	24	= Command_GenericReviveSlot9	
	25	= Command_RadialBack			
End

Do this in the First few lines of Galadriel's Oject file (ini)

Object ElvenGaladriel
; *** ART Parameters ***

	SelectPortrait = HPGaladriel
	ButtonImage = HIGaladriel

	Draw = W3DScriptedModelDraw ModuleTag_DRAW

;	ParticleSysBone = B_PELVIS GaladAura02 FollowBone:YES
		End
		
;ModelConditionState = USER_1		; ring hero version.
;	Model			   = EUGaldrl_SKN
;End

Where it says:

; Note - Not a RespawnBody, as we do not want to put them back in the respawnable hero list when dead.
	Body = ActiveBody ModuleTag_Body
		MaxHealth		 			= GALADRIEL_HEALTH
	End

Relpace it with:

		RespawnEntry =	Level:9				Cost:2400		Time:180000 
		RespawnEntry =	Level:10			Cost:2400		Time:180000 
	End

Inside the playertemplate, under the elver BuildableHeroesMP add her in like this:

BuildableHeroesMP			= CreateAHero ElvenGaladriel ElvenArwen ElvenHaldir ElvenGlorfindel ElvenLegolas ElvenThranduil ElvenElrond

I might be missing something, so feel free to add whatever I missed.

Thanks a bunch but she STILL won't show up!

[Downfall]

Try removing

24	= Command_GenericReviveSlot9

for now.

and in the experiencelevels.ini

;----------- Galadriel ------------------
ExperienceLevel ElvenGaladriel_RingHeroLevel1
	TargetNames					= ElvenGaladriel_RingHero
	RequiredExperience			= 1
	ExperienceAward				= 500
	ExperienceAwardOwnGuysDie	= 0
	Rank						= 10
	Upgrades					= Upgrade_ObjectLevel1
	SelectionDecal
		Texture					= decal_hero_good
		Style					= SHADOW_ALPHA_DECAL
		OpacityMin				= 50%
		OpacityMax				= 100%
		MinRadius				= 40
		MaxRadius				= 200
		MaxSelectedUnits		= 40
	End
End

Add ElvenGaladriel to TargetNames
Like This:

;----------- Galadriel ------------------
ExperienceLevel ElvenGaladriel_RingHeroLevel1
	TargetNames					= ElvenGaladriel_RingHero ElvenGaladriel
	RequiredExperience			= 1
	ExperienceAward				= 500
	ExperienceAwardOwnGuysDie	= 0
	Rank						= 10
	Upgrades					= Upgrade_ObjectLevel1
	SelectionDecal
		Texture					= decal_hero_good
		Style					= SHADOW_ALPHA_DECAL
		OpacityMin				= 50%
		OpacityMax				= 100%
		MinRadius				= 40
		MaxRadius				= 200
		MaxSelectedUnits		= 40
	End
End

And put her at the end of BuildableHeroesMP in the Playertemplate.ini

BuildableHeroesMP			= CreateAHero ElvenArwen ElvenHaldir ElvenGlorfindel ElvenLegolas ElvenThranduil ElvenElrond ElvenGaladriel

[Austen]

She's still not there... aagah does it have to do with her buildcost and buildtime?
could you tell me what should be there? I don't want her to be 10k and wait an hour!


BuildCost = GALADRIEL_BUILDCOST
BuildTime = GALADRIEL_BUILDTIME


Is the one I have now, I wouldn't mind gandalfs or aragorn or someone like that but It won't work!

[Downfall]

Her buildcost and buildtime shouldn't have anything to do with it.
You could change both of them to 5 for the time being. You know, until you get her up and running.

2 questions:
Does the other heroes show up?

This isn't a question more of a suggestion.

See this:

BuildableRingHeroesMP = ElvenGaladriel_RingHero

Comment her out.
Like this:

BuildableRingHeroesMP =;ElvenGaladriel_RingHero

Dunno what that would do.

Yes they all show up besides Galadriel, and when I put her behind anyone the person in front of her dissapears.
