    Default Original Campaign Files (win conditions and descr_strat)

    Howdy fellas. Sorry to be a pain, but I have tried to change half the Elven stats in the campaign (starting units and faction members names and traits) and now whenever I try to open a campaign as anybody it just bounces me back to the main menu.

    Any chance of some help?

    Probably a type or an invalid command in one of the edited files but there's no way to say without going through the files and checking all the changes.

    Search for system.log. It will tell you the problem.

    I need the original campaign-related files descr_strat and campaign win conditions...


    What I had changed (Or tried to at least) goes as follows...
    • Elven generals and faction members are significantly younger (Elladan and Elrohir 18 Elrond about 25)
    • Tried to remove the way that you can get improved barracks after like 30 turns
    • Added about 3-5 more units to Elven settlements, including post-improved barracks units
    • Made Elrond, Legolas, Haldir, Glorfindel and Celeborn greater commanders
    From that list all I would want is the better commanders and the barracks available from start for all factions..

    Yeah I looked in there, I think it's all Vanilla MII crashes from when I was trying to get something on there...

    I could always reinstall the patch... The tweaks I've made :in the export_descr_unit file work perfectly and I have what, 2 mods on it... 1 changing the Silvan Elf's cloaks to red and another making arrows permanent.

    You will have to be very specific, like exactly the units you want to add and how great your general are.

    Oh I see...

    Well...

    If possibly...

    Silvan Elves.

    In Thranduil's Halls
    3 units (all units max exp unless stated) of light archers, 3 units of elven spearmen, Thranduil(2 command).
    With Legolas
    Legolas(4 command), 3 units of forest wardens 2 units of heavy spearmen, 2 units of elite archers (whichever ones)
    Lothlorien
    Celeborn(5 command), 4 units of sentinels, 3 units of wardens and 1 unit of heavy swordsmen
    Caras Galadhon
    Haldir(6 command), 5 sentinels, 2 wardens, 2 heavy archers.

    High Elves.

    Imladris
    Elrond(4 command), 4 Eldar spears(no exp), 4 Eldar swords, 2 Eldar archers, 2 High Elven swords.
    Mithlond
    (I think its ..) Elladan(6 command), 2 warriors of Mithlond, 2 light archers(no exp), 2 H.E Swords(untrained)
    Forlond
    Elrohir?(3 command), same as above
    Whichever 2 are left
    Glorfindel(7 command), 2 Eldar sword 2 Eldar archers 2 Warriors of Mithlond
    The last settlement can have unexperienced warriors of mithlond and light archers (2/3)




    I know its 'slightly' inbalanced...I'll try to make the heavier units way more expensive..

    Oh...

    High Elves to take 15 settlements in short campaign and they must destroy OotMM and Isengard. Silvans need to take 20 settlements and destroy OotMM and Mordor.

    you are all blind.

    Elrohir, and Elladan 18 - Elrond 25? Theres why you crash.

    Elrond has to be at least 16 years older then them to be their father if you are using the vanilla Coming-of-age etc... =)

    Done, I finished.
