How I can add new hero ( like a Wallace or Richard the Lionheart ) to the game?? Can anybody explain me that step by step?? Sorry for my English.

Or just show us a thread that describes that issue would be nice

Thanks in advance.

you need to place em on the map through descr_strat.

Code:

character	Richard the Conqueror, named character, male, leader, age 50, x 109, y 147 
traits Factionleader 1 , GoodCommander 1 , Intelligent 2 , VictorVirtue 3 , PublicFaith 2 , BattleDread 2 , StrategyDread 2 , ReligionStarter 1 
army
unit		King Richard				exp 1 armour 0 weapon_lvl 0
unit		Spear Militia				exp 0 armour 0 weapon_lvl 0
unit		Spear Militia				exp 0 armour 0 weapon_lvl 0
unit		Town Militia				exp 0 armour 0 weapon_lvl 0
unit		Peasants				exp 0 armour 0 weapon_lvl 0

I don't really know what i'm talking about on this, but couldn't you just copy the trigger for one of the mongol generals in the campaign script and then just change coordinates, name, unit types and dat of appearence?

you could try the 'campaign_script.txt' for triggering the number of turns to turn up hero in the map, you can also pick which coordinates to make em appear.. the descr_event.txt could also help you trigger the date of the heroes appearace. ..about the detailed info you should check out the '\mods\britania\data\world\campaign\imperial_campaign' in your mt2w game folder - there you'll see some hints ^_^

Me and a couple of other people figured that out a couple of weeks ago. It's all right here:

Lonck is right though. The change is universal and you have to start a new game for the change to take effect.

I know how you can change all of characters not specific ones. descr_campaign_db.xml look for <max_age uint="90"/> and change it to high number. This will affect all characters though.

What kind of hero are we talking about? The Britainna campaign that is a famous name, or the Crusades campaign that has special abilities with the heros.
