---------------Editing prices of everything---------------

Editing prices is something everybody likes to know about. To edit the pricwe of a special power, go to the science.ini and find a power you want to edit: e.g. Heal. It looks something like this
              

Code

Science SCIENCE_Heal PrerequisiteSciences = SCIENCE_GOOD OR SCIENCE_ROHAN OR SCIENCE_GONDOR SciencePurchasePointCost = 1 SciencePurchasePointCostMP = 1 IsGrantable = Yes ; DisplayName = ; Description = End

Pay attention to the:

              

Code

Science SCIENCE_Heal SciencePurchasePointCost = 1 SciencePurchasePointCostMP = 1 End

Part. The first one: "SciencePurchasePointCost = 1"
means how much it will cost in single player.
The second on: "SciencePurchasePointCostMP = 1"
means how much it costs in multiplayer/skirmish.
So if i change the 1st one to " = 2" then it will cost 2 power points in the campaign.
And if i edit the 2nd one to " = 2" then it will cost 2 power points during skirmish. I don't know if using decimals works as i have never tried it but your'e welcome to try if you want. So if you want summon army of the dead to be 2 power points in skirmish but 100 in the campaign then change to look like this:
Science SCIENCE_ArmyoftheDead
              

Code

PrerequisiteSciences = SCIENCE_GOOD SCIENCE_Anduril OR SCIENCE_ROHAN SCIENCE_CloudBreak_MP OR SCIENCE_ROHAN SCIENCE_EntAllies OR SCIENCE_GONDOR SCIENCE_CloudBreak_MP OR SCIENCE_GONDOR SCIENCE_EagleAllies SciencePurchasePointCost = 100 SciencePurchasePointCostMP = 2 IsGrantable = Yes End

If you want to make army of the dead buyable at the beginning of the game, just change the PrequsiteSciences to look like this:
              

Code

PrerequisiteSciences = SCIENCE_GOOD OR SCIENCE_ROHAN OR SCIENCE_GONDOR

Now you may purchase army of the dead at the start of the campaign, or during skirmsih for both factions but you must still pay the set price. Remember to NEVER set the price at 0 as it will be buyable ingame ;)

Now that's the powers done but now comes buildings, hero's and units.
Go into the, gamedata.ini
Even though i said that i was only going to show you how to change prices of stuff, i will show you some other cool stuff that might be nice.
First i will show you how to edit a gondor soldier.

Find the gondor soldier my pressing Ctrl+F and type in gondor_soldier. Then click Find Next and it should bring you to something that looks like this:
              

Code

;------------------------SOLDIER------------- #define GONDOR_SOLDIER_BUILDCOST            150 ; 100 #define GONDOR_SOLDIER_BUILDTIME            30 ;20 #define GONDOR_SOLDIER_HEALTH                110 ; 100 #define GONDOR_SOLDIER_HEALTH_DAMAGED            110 ; 100 #define GONDOR_SOLDIER_HEALTH_RECOVERY_TIME        10000 #define    GONDOR_SOLDIER_VISION_RANGE             100 #define    GONDOR_SOLDIER_HORDE_VISION_RANGE         100 #define    GONDOR_SOLDIER_SHROUD_RANGE             400 #define    GONDOR_SOLDIER_SWORD                10 #define    GONDOR_SOLDIER_SWORD_UPGRADE            40 ; 60 #define GONDOR_SOLDIER_SWORD_PREATTACKDELAY         500 #define GONDOR_SOLDIER_SWORD_DELAYBETWEENSHOTS         1000 #define GONDOR_SOLDIER_SWORD_FIRINGDURATION         1000 #define    GONDOR_SOLDIER_BOUNTY_VALUE         5

It is very simple what to do but i will go through each #define so you know what you're changing.

#define GONDOR_SOLDIER_BUILDCOST = the price of the unit

#define GONDOR_SOLDIER_BUILDTIME = the time it takes to build in seconds

#define GONDOR_SOLDIER_HEALTH = the units health

#define GONDOR_SOLDIER_HEALTH_DAMAGED = the units health when they are damaged, i don't really know what this is for though

#define GONDOR_SOLDIER_HEALTH_RECOVERY_TIME = how wuick the unit heals

#define    GONDOR_SOLDIER_VISION_RANGE = how far the unit can see

#define    GONDOR_SOLDIER_HORDE_VISION_RANGE = how far the units horde can see

#define    GONDOR_SOLDIER_SHROUD_RANGE = how much fog of war the unit clears away when moving around

#define    GONDOR_SOLDIER_SWORD = how much damage the sword does

#define    GONDOR_SOLDIER_SWORD_UPGRADE = how much damage the sword does when the unit has forged blades

#define GONDOR_SOLDIER_SWORD_PREATTACKDELAY = hmmm, i don't actually know what this does as i have never changed it before

#define GONDOR_SOLDIER_SWORD_DELAYBETWEENSHOTS = how long the unit waits after attacking

#define GONDOR_SOLDIER_SWORD_FIRINGDURATION = how long the units attack lats for

#define    GONDOR_SOLDIER_BOUNTY_VALUE = how much resources the unit gives when killed when eomers outlaw leadership or scavenger is in play

So change whatever values you want to change

Next is the building. There are 2 type of buildings, an economy building and a construction building. Economy buildings produce resources and construction buildings create things.
So find the gondor farm. It should look like this:
              

Code

;------------------------FARM------------- #define GONDOR_FARM_BUILDCOST                350 #define GONDOR_FARM_BUILDTIME                15 #define GONDOR_FARM_HEALTH                1500 #define GONDOR_FARM_HEALTH_DAMAGED            1000 #define GONDOR_FARM_HEALTH_REALLY_DAMAGED        500 #define    GONDOR_FARM_SHROUD_CLEAR            160.0 #define GONDOR_FARM_MONEY_TIME                 6000 #define GONDOR_FARM_MONEY_AMOUNT            15 #define    GONDOR_FARM_LVL1_EXP_AWARD             10 #define    GONDOR_FARM_LVL2_EXP_AWARD             15 #define    GONDOR_FARM_LVL3_EXP_AWARD             20 #define GONDOR_FARM_LVL2_EXP_NEEDED            1200 ;750 #define GONDOR_FARM_LVL3_EXP_NEEDED             2700 ;5000 #define    GONDOR_FARM_LVL2_HP_ADD                 1500 #define    GONDOR_FARM_LVL3_HP_ADD                 2000 #define GONDOR_FARM_LVL2_PRODUCTION             1.2 ;1.34 #define GONDOR_FARM_LVL3_PRODUCTION             1.12 ;1.25 #define    GONDOR_FARM_BOUNTY_VALUE            50

Here is where you edit the farm. I will list any new #define's

#define GONDOR_FARM_HEALTH_REALLY_DAMAGED = The buildings health when it's really damged

#define GONDOR_FARM_MONEY_TIME = how much time it takes for the farm to produce money

#define GONDOR_FARM_MONEY_AMOUNT = how much money the farm produces

#define    GONDOR_FARM_LVL1_EXP_AWARD = for me, this haven't done any changes

#define    GONDOR_FARM_LVL2_EXP_AWARD = for me, this haven't done any changes

#define    GONDOR_FARM_LVL3_EXP_AWARD = for me, this haven't done any changes

#define GONDOR_FARM_LVL2_EXP_NEEDED = how much experience points the farm needs to reach level 2

#define GONDOR_FARM_LVL3_EXP_NEEDED = how much experience the farm needs to reach level 3

#define    GONDOR_FARM_LVL2_HP_ADD    = how much extra health the farm gets when on level 2

#define    GONDOR_FARM_LVL3_HP_ADD    = how much extra health the farm gets when on level 3

#define GONDOR_FARM_LVL2_PRODUCTION = how quick the production increases on level 2 for farms, it increases how much money it makes

#define GONDOR_FARM_LVL3_PRODUCTION = how quick the production increases on level 3 for farms, it increases how much money it makes

Here is the barracks:
              

Code

;------------------------BARRACKS------------- #define GONDOR_BARRACKS_BUILDCOST            300 #define GONDOR_BARRACKS_BUILDTIME            30 #define    GONDOR_BARRACKS_SHROUD_CLEAR            160 #define GONDOR_BARRACKS_HEALTH                3000 #define GONDOR_BARRACKS_HEALTH_DAMAGED            2000 #define GONDOR_BARRACKS_HEALTH_REALLY_DAMAGED        1000 #define    GONDOR_BARRACKS_LVL1_EXP_AWARD             10 #define    GONDOR_BARRACKS_LVL2_EXP_AWARD             15 #define    GONDOR_BARRACKS_LVL3_EXP_AWARD             20 #define GONDOR_BARRACKS_LVL2_EXP_NEEDED            400 ; 500 #define GONDOR_BARRACKS_LVL3_EXP_NEEDED         1800 #define    GONDOR_BARRACKS_LVL2_HP_ADD             1500 #define    GONDOR_BARRACKS_LVL3_HP_ADD             1500 #define GONDOR_BARRACKS_LVL2_BUILD_SPEED         1.25 #define GONDOR_BARRACKS_LVL3_BUILD_SPEED         1.5 #define    GONDOR_BARRACKS_BOUNTY_VALUE            50

This isn't much different at all except it doesn't make money. It creates units.

Now here is Faramir, i chose Faramir because he gives out values for being on horse, bow and sword:

              

Code

;-----------------------Faramir------------------ #define FARAMIR_BUILDCOST                800 #define FARAMIR_BUILDTIME                20 #define FARAMIR_HEALTH                    800 #define    FARAMIR_LVL1_EXP_AWARD                 40 #define    FARAMIR_LVL2_EXP_AWARD                 50 #define    FARAMIR_LVL3_EXP_AWARD                 60 #define    FARAMIR_LVL4_EXP_AWARD                 70 #define    FARAMIR_LVL5_EXP_AWARD                 80 #define    FARAMIR_LVL6_EXP_AWARD                 90 #define    FARAMIR_LVL7_EXP_AWARD                 100 #define    FARAMIR_LVL8_EXP_AWARD                 120 #define    FARAMIR_LVL9_EXP_AWARD                 150 #define    FARAMIR_LVL10_EXP_AWARD             200 #define    FARAMIR_LVL2_EXP_NEEDED             50 ;60 #define    FARAMIR_LVL3_EXP_NEEDED             100 ;200 #define    FARAMIR_LVL4_EXP_NEEDED             200 ;400 #define    FARAMIR_LVL5_EXP_NEEDED             300 ;600 #define    FARAMIR_LVL6_EXP_NEEDED             500 ;800 #define    FARAMIR_LVL7_EXP_NEEDED             700 ;1000 #define    FARAMIR_LVL8_EXP_NEEDED             900 ;1200 #define    FARAMIR_LVL9_EXP_NEEDED             1100 ;1600 #define    FARAMIR_LVL10_EXP_NEEDED             1500 ;2000 #define FARAMIR_PREATTACKDELAY             700 #define FARAMIR_DELAYBETWEENSHOTS             1500 #define FARAMIR_FIRINGDURATION             800 #define FARAMIR_BOW_PREATTACKDELAY             1170 #define FARAMIR_BOW_DELAYBETWEENSHOTS             0 #define FARAMIR_BOW_FIRINGDURATION             0 #define FARAMIR_BOW_RELOADTIME_MIN            1200 ; 1500 #define FARAMIR_BOW_RELOADTIME_MAX            1600 ; 2000 #define    FARAMIR_DAMAGE                    50 #define    FARAMIR_BOW_DAMAGE                30 #define    FARAMIR_BOW_RANGE                350 #define    FARAMIR_WOUNDING_ARROW_DAMAGE            400 ; 300 #define    FARAMIR_WOUNDING_ARROW_RANGE            350

I will give a definition for the unexplained #define's:

#define FARAMIR_BOW_PREATTACKDELAY = How long he takes to aim

#define FARAMIR_BOW_DELAYBETWEENSHOTS = How long he waits until he fires his next shot (i wouldn't bother changing this as it is at it's lowest timer)

#define FARAMIR_BOW_FIRINGDURATION = how long the arrow takes to hit the target (i wouldn'y suggest changing this as there is no need)

#define FARAMIR_BOW_RELOADTIME_MIN = How long it takes him to reload his ammo in the minimum time

#define FARAMIR_BOW_RELOADTIME_MAX = How long it takes him to reload his ammo in the maximum time

That is it for prices. Now as i said before, here are some nice stuff that you can do:

1) Making it so that in skirmish you don't have the annoying colors.
Ctrl+F color. Search until you find
              

Code

SelectionFlashHouseColor = No ; if 'No', selection flashes white

Change that "No" to a "Yes" without the quote marks. (make sure the Yes starts with a capital letter)

Then click find next until you find:
              

Code

EnableHouseColor    = Yes

Change that "Yes" to a "No"

Now for something i'm sure you definitely want to change. Commandpoints for Skirmish AND the Campaign. Find this piece of code:
              

Code

;;; CAMPAIGN BONUS CAPS GoodCommandPointLimit        = 1500 EvilCommandPointLimit        = 1500 PowerLimit            = 60 ResourceMultiplierLimit    = 15.0 ;;; INITIAL MAX RING LEVEL PLAYER CAN ACHIEVE InitialMaxRingLevel = 60 ;2 ;;; Resource Bonus Percentage ResourceBonusMultiplier = 10.0                        ; 10% bonus per region conquered      ;;; COMMAND POINTS FOR SOLO PLAY HUMAN (INCLUDING LIVING WORLD) ;;; GoodCommandPoints = 500 EvilCommandPoints = 500 GoodCommandPointsBonus = 50         ; bonuses for every territory captures in living world EvilCommandPointsBonus = 50 ;;; COMMAND POINTS FOR SOLO PLAY AI ;;; GoodCommandPointsAI = 200 EvilCommandPointsAI = 600 ;;; COMMAND POINTS FOR MULTIPLAY ;;; GoodCommandPointsMP2 = 2000         ; 2 players EvilCommandPointsMP2 = 4000 GoodCommandPointsMP3 = 1500             ; 3 players EvilCommandPointsMP3 = 3000 GoodCommandPointsMP4 = 1500             ; 4 players EvilCommandPointsMP4 = 3000 GoodCommandPointsMP56 = 1000         ; 5-6 players EvilCommandPointsMP56 = 2000 GoodCommandPointsMP78 = 800         ; 7-8 players EvilCommandPointsMP78 = 1600

I have already changed the values my adding an extra zero to skirmish games and editing the campaign. It's quite obvious what to edit here

Sorry this page was so long XD
