Historical battles

[Aleric]

Can you make them yourself with the video bit that explains the situtation and the voice over by marcus?

In order to make something like that is possible, but really hard. I ventured into this once a long time ago, (the making of the actual intro video etc) and what you have to do is 1) record the audio voice overs (if you cant use existing ones) 2) render the actual video portion of the intro 3) drop audio and video into appropriate files and then create the text file which calls on each audio segment at the exact specific time (for most historical battles I think there are like 20-30 different voice clips which are called). Im pretty sure theres more to it than that, but tbh I looked at this a very long time ago so dont really remember much.

Ok can you make them without that just text describing what to do? and how?

[Publius]

Im not sure what you are asking

[Aleric]

Do it without any voice overs or video...?

Oh. I believe you can make historical battles using the battle editor - theres a huge tutorial on using the editor in either the downloads section or tutorials section. Either way there are basically just certain parameters which must be met (starting armies, two opposing factions, etc) which must be met and when you save it will automatically generate a historical battle for you. And dont worry about the parameters I mentioned - an error message will pop up when you try to save telling you what else you need to do
