Problems with Fourth Age editor

[heiro]

Hello all!

Im new here, and as this is my first post, I want to thank the devs for making this awesome mod.

But about the problem:

I want to make the Helms Deep Battle, but every time I click on "Victory Conditions" the game crashes without showing error report.
Edit: I think its with the "Set Victory Conditions" Menu. That you haven't made a new look for it, but also deleted the old one? I would test this out by adding the old look, but I dunno which files to edit or what files to change.

Edit2: Fix (not tested by me...yet): finish the map without touching victory conditions and change the descr_battle file manually (found in your newly created maps folder. Data/World/Maps/Battle/Custom/"Map name"). Last time I tested it showed me a error, but I quess it was a grammar error . Me and my bad English.

Edit3: The fixed worked, kinda. But after winning and it asked if I want to continue to chase them and I clicked no it crashed. I quess after you click yes and kill em all and win, it crashes too. "PLEASE fix the editor or maybe the installer was scre-wed"

Edit 4: No answers yet, but I got some progress in fixing it. But I think theres nobody else having this prob, because of lack of posts .
Anyway now I'm almost done with fixing it by the text files, but it takes too long to do it for every battle I make (And I prefer making alot of them).

Question to Devs and others who know the asnwer: Will there be Helms Deep kind of battle in the era you are making this mod?
As I have only seen the movie (and not even all the episodes) I know almost nothing about Fourth Age or Third Age. Put I would like to see that battle in this mod (Helms Deep one). Maybe even make a City/Fort that looks like Helms Deep in the movie, so it would be even cooler to slaughter the uruks.

Maybe even Low PC battle (less units)
Medium PC battle (enough units, to get into the battle)
Very Good/Good PC battle (As much units as seen in the movie, Now you can really get into the battle)

Well as I'm making the battle right now, my pc runs kinda slow, but when I played it at my friends place, the battle was really wicked.
When the enemy reached the walls, the elves fought bravely, but the numbers did their job. As they also broke my gate, battle was going on inside the city. Legolas died, Gimli ran away (lol) , but Aragorn showed that their soldiers are stronger then punch of mindless and wild Uruks. When Rohan horsemen arrived, half of the Uruks were inside the city, but the horsemen did their job well. While the last Uruk was crossing the border/red line, I paused the game, and it was cool to watch all the Uruks slain by archers and Horsemen.

(Tweaked the morale of Uruks )


Thanks for all who can help.

Also as a suggestion for developers. As far as I know, Uruk-Hai's are mindless fools who listen to their master, so they shouldn't run away, atleast not as fast as they do now. The morale of orcs should be slightly increased too.


Sorry for my bad English, I'm Estonian.

well for one, in the books there were no elves at helms deep except for legolas

In the movies, there were some elves that came as a support to the humans.
