I was experimenting with RJs mod and noticed that certain heroes: Gandalf and Aragorn, could put on the ring and gain more power but be damaged over time.

I believe this could be a better solution to  having a Ring Hero who is the same as an already existing normal hero. 

Here is the code for Gandalf:

;-----------------------------------------------------------------------
	;---------------------------- Ring Code --------------------------------
	;-----------------------------------------------------------------------

	Behavior = ObjectCreationUpgrade ModuleTag_RemoveUpgrades1
		TriggeredBy				= Upgrade_HasRing
		RemoveUpgrade				= Upgrade_LostRing
	End

	Behavior = ObjectCreationUpgrade ModuleTag_RemoveUpgrades2a
		TriggeredBy				= Upgrade_LostRing
		RemoveUpgrade				= Upgrade_HasRing
	End

	Behavior = ObjectCreationUpgrade ModuleTag_RemoveUpgrades2b
		TriggeredBy				= Upgrade_LostRing
		RemoveUpgrade				= Upgrade_UseRing
	End

	Behavior = ObjectCreationUpgrade ModuleTag_RemoveUpgrades2c
		TriggeredBy				= Upgrade_LostRing
		RemoveUpgrade				= Upgrade_CorruptedRing
	End

	Behavior = ObjectCreationUpgrade ModuleTag_RemoveUpgrades3
		TriggeredBy				= Upgrade_UseRing
		RemoveUpgrade				= Upgrade_LostRing
	End

	Behavior = CommandSetUpgrade ModueTag_UpgradedRingCommandSet
		TriggeredBy				= Upgrade_HasRing
		CommandSet				= GandalfRingCommandSet
	End

	Behavior = CommandSetUpgrade ModueTag_RestoreNormalCommandSet
		TriggeredBy				= Upgrade_LostRing
		CommandSet				= GondorGandalfCommandSet
	End

	Behavior = ModelConditionUpgrade ModuleTag_TimerConditions
		TriggeredBy				= Upgrade_UseRing
		;RequiresAllTriggers			= Yes ;only use me if you have multiple required upgrades
		AddConditionFlags			= USER_10
		AddTempConditionFlag			= ModelConditionState:USER_11
		TempConditionTime			= 100.0
	End

	Behavior = ModelConditionUpgrade ModuleTag_RemoveTimerConditions
		TriggeredBy				= Upgrade_CorruptedRing
		RemoveConditionFlags			= USER_10
	End

	Behavior = FireWeaponUpdate ModuleTag_WeaponCorrupted
		FireWeaponNugget
			WeaponName			= GandalfCorruptionWeapon
			Offset				= X:0 Y:0 Z:0
			FireDelay			= 5000
			OneShot				= No
		End
	End

So is there a way to upgrade his model when he uses the Ring, so that he gains Galadriel's aura around him? This is Galadriel Aura code:

			ParticleSysBone = B_PELVIS GaladAura FollowBone:YES
			ParticleSysBone = B_PELVIS GaladAura02 FollowBone:YES

And also upgrade his weapon to the power of Sauron's Mace? I think I would be able to create this weapon I just wouldn't be sure on how to create an upgrade to make Gandalf use this weapon when he puts on the Ring.

EDIT:  Also, I was looking through commandset.ini with CTRL-F and couldn't find a commandset for Gandalf or Aragorn. Is it just a coincidence that these are the two characters who can put on the Ring? Does anyone know why their commandsets would be missing on RJs mod? I'm confused as I searched for the commandset named in the hero.ini file ("GondorGandalfCommandSet") and I even searched for just "Gandalf" and only something from the Arnor faction came up. What's even more confusing is that these characters still work in game so I couldn't have deleted these by accident. 

So I was thinking of adding a new ring hero: Gandalf (I know it almost certainly wouldn't happen in Tolkien's world but I thoguht it would be cool anyway). So I would have to create a child object in gandalf.ini and add him to the buildable ring heroes, but I have a few questions:

1).How would I stop there from being 2 Gandalf's running around at the same time when the Ring Hero Gandalf is on the map, but still allow NormalGandalf to be built before RingHeroGandalf is built?

2).How would I stop the RingHero Gandalf from riding Shadowfax, because a mounted ring hero would be too OP?

3). RJ's mod has 2 verions of Gandalf: Grey and White triggered when a Special Power is bought. How would I choose which version of Gandalf the RingHero would be, because Gandalf the White is already a child object with a whole new set of animations. Would I add these animations to the RingHero version too?

This is the code used to trigger Gandalf the White:

	Behavior = ModelConditionUpgrade ModuleTag_TurnWhite
		TriggeredBy				= Upgrade_HeroesofGondor
		AddConditionFlags			= USER_2
	End 

Thanks

Hello people,

I've recently been trying to add a new hero to the game and it was all going well until I tried to give him special powers. I'm trying to add a Forlong the Fat and I haven't given him any models or skins, he looks identical to Boromir at the moment.

So I want to give him some powers but how do I do this? I know I need to add them on the commandset.ini but what else do I need to do. I see a file called "specialpower" and I think that's where the powers go. But what files do I need to edit to add a new power or modify an existing one.

I think an example would help a lot, so what would I have to change to give him the Leadership power, for example. I'm currently using RJs mod so I won't be publishing this mod it's just for learning and I can't seem to find the leadership powers anywhere (except Eomer's).

Thanks in advance.

Hello people,

This is my first post on this forum and I'm relatively new to modding ROTWK (I have been experiment by adding units to buildings etc) but I would like some help. I have currently installed RJ's mod and I was trying to add a new building on top of this: a Fiefdom Barracks, to allow Gondor to produce all the lovely Fiefdom units he has created, without using his inn system. 

So I created a new building ini fiefdom barracks, a copy of another one of his files "Arnor Barracks". I then placed this file in the Men structures (strangely the file is not called Gondor). I then copied the Arnor Barracks W3D file, renamed it "fiefdombarracks" and saved it in the art files. I then edited the commandset so my building could produce all the desired units.

But here's the problem I also added it to the porter file for Gondor, but when I try to open the game, it that this is where the error is occurring.

I'm guessing I need a separate file so the porter knows what to do, or maybe I'm wrong entirely.

If anyone could help me I would appreciate it greatly and if you need me to post any code I'll do that, of course.

Thanks in advance and I hope I'm not breaking any of the rules by trying to edit someone else's mod.
