Eragon mod

[Zenious]

have you tried using a utility program for the techs???

No, I guess I'll try one. Btw, I'm going to be on a field trip for the weekend, just so you know.

kk.hope you have fun.

iv decided to include roran as a hero because of his major part in eldest.
iv also done the razac and the blackhand. i wasnt sure wether to have the razac together or as 2 seperate heros. Iv put them together otherwise the empire would have even more heros than they allready have.

 

[dalek master]

to get the units to only be in a certain civ you can edit the units xml file i think..... Either that or i give each civ 3 baisic units that are accesible to all civs like archer swordsmen and spearmen ect... then each civ has there hero and 3-4 uu like elven archer-swordsmen-and rider for the elves empire eliet ect for the empire and so on and so forth but i will prob do it the other way.

I would keep it the way fraxis has done it. It would be so much more simpiler. And Urgals get swordemen and stuff? No, Id say all civs have the smae types of units but different versions, strengths and weaknesses.

Unless that's what you ment

 

[dalek master]

i wasnt sure wether to have the razac together or as 2 seperate heros.

I swear there is more than 2 razac?

I swear there is more than 2 razac?

Yes, remember, that that there is Helgrind, the living quarters for the Razaac. They were going after that place when Eldest ended.

I like the second unit model for galbatorix.

 

[jamie006]

ye so do i the first if far to sinister.
no there is 2 razac and 2 of those evil dragon things that are there parents.
In eldest it eragons trainer says somthing about it.
And for the units yes that is what i meant exept that i kinda got the wording all wrong...
Zenious if you are having trouble with the techs i can help do them. Iv run out of new units to put into the mod and are waiting for some newones to come out.

iv put galbatorix in the game using the duillist modle.
He is trully all powerfull he killed everyone of my heros that are in the game so far and the duvangata. Question is does eveyone want him this powerfull and have eragon only able to kill him through promotions or eragon can kill him straight out. I personally think that eragon should only be able to kill him through promotions ( just under maximum amout). Any ideas???

 

[dalek master]

Well I think in the normal game we should just have him an extra-powerful hero, and change him for the scenario so that only one hell of a fully-leveled up hero can take him on. And we don't know who will kill him anyway because Empire isn't out...

btw, are we going to have the leader-replaced thingy in the normal game?

 

[jamie006]

i think we will only have the normal heros in the quick game and the replacment thingy in the scenro

i have a pretty good guess that eragon will kill him
have you fuigerd out the civs problem yet???
Iv updated the finished units list post 147
and also could someone post a good eragon starter pic with the size 1024 by 1024???

 

[dalek master]

for the starter pic, Just use the ones you have earlyier in the thread, as it is unlikely you'll find better ones.

EDIT: but not the film's cast one. I don'tt hink we should haev the mod closer to the film thna we can help...

 

[jamie006]

you can do it with paint. I'll do it if you unsure....

 

[jamie006]

paint????...... I never new that...

I wont be online much tommorow since its my birthday. Ill be having friends over most the day

 

[ice2k4]

Happy birthday man.

I am having trouble with the map through python, I'm still not sure why, and I may just have to use worldbuilder. It won't come out the way I wanted it though.

Also, I perfer to have Eragon kill Galbatorix through promotions. I also think we should be able to restrain Galbatorix within a 4-5 tile radius of his capitol. That way he will never stray into war, and Eragon will be forced to move through enemy lines to fight him.

Instead of the empire collapsing when Galbatorix dies, maybe they shoud lose certain cities (the ones that are opposed to him, which I forgot which ones are, havent read the books in a while.)

 

[dalek master]

No, When Gallbarotix is killed, the varden et.c win the game. simple

 

[ice2k4]

Ehh, your call.

I have officialy given up on doing the map in python. I think it's trying to auto-resize my image, that I resized myself. I'll try it in worldbuilder, if it doesn't turn out the way I like it, I'll go back to working on python.

 

[jamie006]

thx ice. I dont know but it might turn out well in world builder. Best of luck

 

[ice2k4]

Well, I looked it over, and I thnk the problem was because I used photoshop, which only saves images as a 16bit bmp image. I didn't know that it had to be 24 bit. I started a new map on paint, because it allows a 24bit bitmap to be saved.
