Very basic modding help

06 February 2015 - 02:42 PM

Hope this is the right area. 

 

I have had a look through the 3rd Age site on modding tutorials and help guides but still a bit lost. 

 

I used the 'setting up a .BIG tutorial' and the help guide pdf that is there as well, so will try to keep this short.

 

-Downloaded shadow and Flame mod and Middle Earth Extended edition. 

-Used FinalBIG to extract all the files from these .BIG files into a folder.

-Changed horde size on one unit to see how it would work and saved.

-Used FinalBIG to import all the files from my created folder to create a .BIG file.

-Placed this file in MyBattleForMiddleEarth directory. 

-Adjusted the shortcut location on the mods game launch application to my created .BIG file

-Games boots up but relies on T3A 1.6 patch as base game.

-If I placed the original mod files back in place, the game runs those mods fine.

 

Question is whether I can change single lines of code from these mods or whether they are protected? 

or if I am doing it completely wrong and a posting to guides that have worked for others would be good.

*Title should be defeat. Did it in a hurry

 

Hi all. 

I hope this is an alright place to leave this and I'll try to keep it short but on point.
- Installed the game with no issues
- Patched to 1.3
- Everything works fine with base game
- Tried out a couple of mods, Return of the Shadow etc and worked fine
- This is also with T3A online patch to 1.6 and worked fine
- Added The Elven Alliance Community Addition with everything up to date and that runs fine
- Issue is that I'm having the EA anti privacy element affecting when it never did before. 
- Did the recommended re installation with the CCleaner and still having the same issues
- This isn't an illegal copy, have product key with CD

- I've also followed the steps from this thread - http://forums.revora...atic-106/page-2

Guess my question is whether this is an issue with the mod as The Middle Earth Experience patch didn't have this issues and also thinking of trying out the Kings of the West mod.

Last note, when I add a mod, I re install everything to make sure its correct.

Thanks
