The purpose of this tutorial is to show you some items that can be customized in the gamedata.ini file. There are many things that can be adjusted here from health, cost, build time, to camera angles, particle effects, and the effect of veterency levels.
When you open your gamedata.ini file you should use "Control F" feature to find what you are looking for. Use cost, Rohan, health, and such. All can be edited from here.
#define is used to allocate the value for the units parameters. This will be evident when you look into the the gamedata.ini. When adding a new unit it seems logical that you should define it here.
These items can be adjusted for your command points. This will effect how many units you may command in the course of a battle.

;;; CAMPAIGN BONUS CAPS
GoodCommandPointLimit = 300
EvilCommandPointLimit = 600
PowerLimit = 60
ResourceMultiplierLimit = 5.0
;;; 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 = 100
EvilCommandPoints = 300
GoodCommandPointsBonus = 20 ; 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 = 200 ; 2 players
EvilCommandPointsMP2 = 400
GoodCommandPointsMP3 = 150 ; 3 players
EvilCommandPointsMP3 = 300
GoodCommandPointsMP4 = 150 ; 4 players
EvilCommandPointsMP4 = 300
GoodCommandPointsMP56 = 100 ; 5-6 players
EvilCommandPointsMP56 = 200
GoodCommandPointsMP78 = 80 ; 7-8 players
EvilCommandPointsMP78 = 160 |
This part will directly effect how the game behaves while in mutiplayer mode. Changing these parameters will increase/decrease the modifiers on Resource Gathering, Unit Veternecy, and Experience Level.

Many things can be adjusted in this file. More than this tutorial allows. So hopefully this opens up enough for beginners to experiment and balance things as they see fit.
An example of a unit. These parameters can easily be modified from this file.

;------------------------PORTER-------------
#define GONDOR_PORTER_HEALTH 120
#define GONDOR_PORTER_HEALTH_DAMAGED 120
#define GONDOR_PORTER_HEALTH_RECOVERY_TIME 5000
#define GONDOR_PORTER_VISION_RANGE 100
#define GONDOR_PORTER_BOUNTY_VALUE 30 |
CommentsDisplay order: Newest first x1dani1x - Monday January 7, 2013 - 18:59 What the game means with Health_Damaged? R3ap3rkill - Friday October 16, 2009 - 12:06 I tried changing:
;------------------------PORTER-------------
#define GONDOR_SOLDIER_HEALTH 120
#define GONDOR_SOLDIER_HEALTH_DAMAGED 120
#define GONDOR_SOLDIER_HEALTH_RECOVERY_TIME 5000
But when i ran the map in skirmish the game closed and gave me an error saying that none of those were allowed because they were macros :S not sure what that means, any ideas? I'm using this in BFME1, maybe it only works on BFME2 and ROTWK.

where can i find it?
I think that may be like the "MII: TW" in which case it`s necesary to decompress the files with a special application to get the moddeable files.

I spect impatient for an answer, so i can start changing this excelent game right away.
