Im trying to add a new civ to the game, but I've run into a slight problem creating the leader. Does anyone have a template or something I could use in making my new leader?
 
I would think the easiest way would be (after creating a completely duplicate copy of FfH2) taking an existing leader and copying everything XML related and then simply renaming the pasted part. It will be harder than just that, but that should get you started.
 
There's some very good tutorials in the Tutorials section of the Creation and Customization forum. I started there, and ended up with a fully functioning civ (thanks ever so much, MagisterCultuum).
 
I finally got my new civ working. I didn't code the leader type correctly :/ It's working just fine now though, leader and all XD
 
I made the Villalfar, a civ composed of Ljosalfar who were separated from the larger part of the group that survived the Age of Ice, and became more feral than their cousins due to the harsh conditions they had to survive. They're fiercely fanatical nature worshippers (I'm about to add adept (Naturist - though I want a better word, because that also means "nudist") and mage (Guardian of Leaves) replacements, (the mage upgrading to a Druid rather than an Archmage so the player gets 6 druids). They're very tied to the Fellowship of leaves: Guardian of Nature enables their UB.
 
Maybe Dharma doesn't want people to get the image of naked screaming elves swinging down on you from the trees waving their spears and....well......parts about in their full glory. Maybe Dharma wants you to invision them differently. Maybe Dharma doesn't want to go down in FFH history as the person who made the nudist elves a playable civ. ;)

I can't read Dharma's mind, but you know the jokes will be coming in if we can even remotely associate them with nudists. Of course, it's all in good fun. I dunno, maybe I'm just being juvenile. :P

Anyways, I think one of Kael's new videos covers making new leaders if you're having any kind of trouble. It might be good to check into that. They were on the site home page the other day.

EDIT

I found the thread link in case you are interested. Here you go:

Hehehe, yeah, something like that. I stuck with "Preserver", anyway.

And I'll use this post to appeal for a leaderhead of some sort to use for the first release. Or I'll end up using a picture of a sheep with "PLACEHOLDER" across it, or something.
 
I can fully imagine nudist feral elves using sheeps as placeholders now. :D
