just wanted to know if Khamul is included in the evil campaign as a persistent hero

cheers

just wonderin if anbody could recommend a mod that works with the single player campaign, i want to replay that experience, but with things like gothmog, and ugluk for the evil side for example,
there r some excellent mods out there, but im just lookng for a simple one that adds new heroes or units into the campaign

cheers

hey im trying to add a new power to the corrupted man class, a poisoned arrow bonus.

but instead of the normal magic fx, its poison, and at level 3 he can actually fire a green poison projectile based on the goblin poison arrow like the sliverthorn arrow for CAH level4 arrow bonus, . i think it would be really cool

i copied the CAH arrow bonus and based i on that, but when he recieves the upgrade i cant target enemies, and
the CAH can no longer fire arrows or use his bow

here are the codes if anybody is willing to help, or try it out

has anyone changed their CAH models?

im tyring to put the sauron skel and skin to my new CAH subclass, i want him to look and attack like sauron and give him CAH powers , he does not have to show up in the creation screen,i know that wont work

in creataheromodelconditionupgrades.

//------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
	// Upgrade for Khazadrim#2
	Behavior = ModelConditionUpgrade ModuleTag_Khazadrim_SubClass_1
		TriggeredBy					= Upgrade_CreateAHero_ClassKhazadrim Upgrade_CreateAHero_SubClass_1

		RemoveConditionFlagsInRange	= CREATE_A_HERO_00 CREATE_A_HERO_65
		AddConditionFlags			= CREATE_A_HERO_18
	End
	// Upgrade for Khazadrim #2 (Create A Hero Map Mode)
	Behavior = ModelConditionUpgrade ModuleTag_Khazadrim_SubClass_1_MM
		TriggeredBy					= Upgrade_CreateAHeroMapMode Upgrade_CreateAHero_ClassKhazadrim Upgrade_CreateAHero_SubClass_1
		RequiresAllTriggers			= Yes
		RemoveConditionFlagsInRange	= CREATE_A_HERO_00 CREATE_A_HERO_65
		AddConditionFlags			= CREATE_A_HERO_19
	End	

what should i change here {CREATE_A_HERO_18 into what?}
because as you know CREATE_A_HERO_18 (corrupedman2) is in creataheromodels it has its on skel and skin,

so if i add:
Model = MUSauron_SKN
Skeleton = MUSauron_SKL

to a new create a hero model,in createaheromodels

what should i name : AddConditionFlags = CREATE_A_HERO_18
as all CAH models i think are between CREATE_A_HERO_00 CREATE_A_HERO_65


increateaheromodels for example, ane modelsate

//--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
// 
ModelConditionState	= CREATE_A_HERO_18===== what should i name this,: anything? 
	Model				 = MUSauron_SKN
	Skeleton			 = MUSauron_SKL
	ModelAnimationPrefix = MUSauron
	PortraitImageName	 = CPHaradrim
	ButtonImageName		 = HICAHHaradrim
	ParticleSysBone	  = WEAPON SaronRingSpark FollowBone:Yes
	WeaponLaunchBone	= PRIMARY Weapon
End

and do i put sauron's animations under creataheroanims or do i create a whole new object file?
finally where in object/createahero do i put sauron's weapon damage and fx?

WeaponSet
		Conditions			= None 
		Weapon				= PRIMARY SauronMace
		AutoChooseSources	= PRIMARY FROM_PLAYER FROM_SCRIPT FROM_AI
	End

i know this is a messy deal but it ould be cool if you could have your on sauron type CAhero, with your on special powers.

if anybody is willing to answer my questions it would be very much appreciated,

cheers

theczar

two questions:
how do i change the background color of a button in the palantir,

for example i have the outlaw leadership ability added to my CAHs and the button image is the spellbook scavenger image with the skull/swords and a white background, i would like to change it to grey or brown.

also the CAH's rain of arrows; could the color effects of the arrows be changed from blue to red,

i know there are experts out there on this,
cheers
