hey guys I've been trying to duplicate the upgrading spell from the Isengard Fractions spellbook into the elven fraction of rj and although I and the creator can't seem to tell what I possibly did wrong the problem persists that the spells cursor ingame remains red and when put over the specified units in the object filters its still red and when clicked on top of the unit it says nothing has been selected when the units health bar is even showing ! there fore i'm completely baffled and desperately require the help of the the  3rd age modding gods

 

PS: the files attach to this is merely a text document recording what I did to the ini files since for some strange reason I've never been able to copy paste on revora...

[Ridder Geel]

Does it work if the take away the filter?

[saruman_the_wise]

Which one

[Ridder Geel]

Oh right sorry, the SpecialPower one

[Ridder Geel]

Right if you remove the filter change:

Flags = RESPECT_RECHARGE_TIME_DISCOUNT NEEDS_OBJECT_FILTER

to

Flags = RESPECT_RECHARGE_TIME_DISCOUNT

[saruman_the_wise]

still no change  its as if theres nothing selected . well atleast that's what its telling me

[MorguLord]

change the radius in AttributeModifierNugget to 40 also, see if that works..

[saruman_the_wise]

again sadly there is no change :/

[Ridder Geel]

Change the enum to SPECIAL_SPELL_BOOK_WAR_CHANT maybe?

You still can't cast it right?

[saruman_the_wise]

exactly I can buy it move the cursor but when it comes to casting it on the units it just doesn't work its just red stating I have no units selected but i'll try the warchant

[saruman_the_wise]

still no effect

[saruman_the_wise]

may be an entirely new route could do the trick? but how to even begin i'm not sure

[saruman_the_wise]

WOOPIE!!! I don't know how I did but I deleted everything concerning the power and then read did it following the code I originally posted and IT WORKED  my only explanations is that I must have placed the code in the wrong areas of the ini's but thanks so much Morgulord and Ridder Geel for taking your time to help me

[MorguLord]

oh thank god

[Ridder Geel]

Ghehe, well good to hear its working
