**BuddahG85** · July 30, 2012, 03:01 PM

or save it elswhere then move it back in and replace the old file

**Avatar of the Ice Wolf** · July 30, 2012, 03:06 PM

You could also check the files settings and remove the protection. I find that to be the best bet if all else fails.

Well i took an imaginative break for awhile, which means i was press-ganged into "Helping" pack and move my brothers apartment. But right now i was not sure whether to work on Hyrule , or the northern coast.

Both would be very difficult considering the discussion on whether to expand lake Hylia or what settlements belong up on the northern coast.

might i suggest adding more islands in places other than the south? more along the western and northern shorelines?

I was think along the lines of the Anouki island, or other islands from PH

it would be cool if Zora's River was like the Anduin in TATW. so ships could sail up it to Zora's Fountain.

**Duke Serkol** · July 31, 2012, 08:40 PM

Shouldn't Zora's Fountain be atop a waterfall?

Although I agree I do not think that is even possible with ME II if implementation was attempted.

There's a trick that makes it possible: you have to change the texture of impassable ground so that in a certain climate (regardless fo the time of the year, winter or summer) it looks like water. Only that way you can put a lake at a higher altitude than the sea.

How is it that you know all this? I know that your knowledge of Zelda is boundless, but I didn't know you had amazing modding and Medieval II knowledge as well.

**Duke Serkol** · July 31, 2012, 10:16 PM

Yeah, actually it's just because I discussed the issue with Talking_Bidoof.

Too bad he's left

**VGF254** · July 31, 2012, 10:20 PM

looks good, but why is Lon Lon neutral now?

Well Lon Lon is not really a Hyrule territory is it? Is it not privately owned? Maybe it could be occupied by rebel Ordon Farmers?

And when you take it you get Malon perhaps?

I am very new to modding, I have very very little experience but this mod had an impact on me and I would LOVE to learn and help as much as I can if given the opportunity. If i am able to help in any way, I also edit photos on spare time, so I at least have a start
