How do you get it to where there is no fog of war?
I know there are these lines in gamedatadebug

ShroudOn = Yes
FogOfWarOn = No

I changed it to ; ShroudOn = No
and that didn't do anything

then in commandmapdebug

DebugCommandMap DEMO_TOGGLE_FOGOFWAR
Key = KEY_Y
Transition = DOWN
Modifiers = SHIFT_ALT
UseableIn = GAME
End

And I didn't know what to do with that

Could someone please help and walk me through this. The help would be very much appreciated.

FogOfWarOn = No

Have you tried adding that line in gamedata.ini? or wherever you defined your "Gamedata" block

I tried and a data error came up,.,.,.,does it matter where you put it in gamedata.ini?

[Ridder Geel]

...yes i said in the Gamedata block, search for it until you find a line saying
Gamedata

[Tag]

If you mean in this section
;//=============================================================
;//= GAME DATA =
;//=============================================================
yes I put it in there

and if you mean under this like this

GameData
; CheckMemoryLeaks = Yes
FogOfWarOn = No

ShellMapName = Maps\ShellMap1\ShellMap1.map
ShellMapOn = No

I tried there as well and a data error came up

how about if you put your gamedatadebug.ini into the object folder?

[Tag]

It says there's a problem with line ten
Error pasring field 'wireframe' in file 'data\ini\object\gamedatadebug.ini', line ten
do I remove line ten : Wireframe = NO

[Ridder Geel]

yes thats how "debugging" some lines work
If there are more lines that cause errors remove those...
I will help more tomorrow (00:26 here!)

Thanks but after I deleted one line, I had to delete the next line, then the next, and then the next, and so on, isn't that bad that I deleted those lines?
I stopped after it said to get rid of:
DebugProjectileTileWidth = 5 ; Tile used with the debug key to see bezier arcs on projectiles.

As long as you did not have to delete your fog of war i guess its ok

[Ridder Geel]

...Too scared to log in and show your face? The other way to remove fog is through a script in the map, but thats the only other way i know of. I was giving suggestions on how to do it, like I always do if I dont know how to immediately solve the problem. And... If you dont know how to do it like he wants, stop Necro posting!

Or use a shroud revealer
The simplest solutions are often the best.

[Ridder Geel]

well actually i discovered an easy way... In the libraries, open the "AI_Men of the West" in worldbuilder and then add a script there, this way you dont need to edit all the maps, and if there is one AI it should reveal the entire map, maybe if you do it with the multiplayer_human one it will always work
