Absolutely awesome. LOVE the pause button. Why wasn't it part of the game already????? Thank you so much for this!

thanks nottud, i love your work with both games!!!

Not intentional but yes due to a "bug". Open a blank editor and press debug, quest to editor, then debug a second time, quit back to menu, then quit to the main menu. You will now have the debug option outside the editor for singleplayer games.

is it possible to open the protopalette outside of the editor i mean during a single player mission or skirmish match like in the old one?

If you meaning visual for screenshots use the animation viewer.

is it possible to improve units in editor without play though? hoplite to medium hoplite for example
or maybe spawn already upgraded?

Heya sadly I don't know much about AI behaviour. All I can suggest is ensure they got the resources available to use or gather, enough space to build, and the ai file chosen is compatible with the civ they are given.

Hello there. I'm new about editing in Aom. I tried to make a custom map i would like to play with a friend and IA. (3 players)
I don't know why but i cannot make the IA work. I mean, they start building, go to the next age and then nothing. I don't know why. Is you mod would help to make this work?

Thank you very much

If possible, can you please update this so that it is compatible with the latest version of the Expanded Mod Core? Thank you.

Awesome thanks for the reply nottud, keep up the wicked work.

(This makes you type the player number instead of selecting but this removes the restriction of what can be selected)

Unfortunately not a way in the editor - however you can do it by changing the data type of the trigger accepting the player number from "player" to "string" in the trigger xml file.

Hello nottud
Lovely work as always
Small question:
Is there a possibility to increase the player count to 12 in conditions/effects and army, currently it is restricted to 10.
Would help me massivly if i am working on smaller villages.
Kind regards
Nox

Detailed help no longer crashes the game. Thanks to Chickenland for suggesting me a fix.

I found the correct place, and it all seems to work. Thank you so much good sir

I think they are in the startup folder.

Thank you for the swift reply, might I just ask where I could find the hotkey file? I'm not very adept at messing with files and can't seem to locate it

Ah yes it was a shortcut I added to old editor. I avoided messing with people's shortcuts however. I can give you the code to enable it for you:

map("+alt-arrowup", "moveunit", "uiPitchUnitUp")
map("+alt-arrowdown", "moveunit", "uiPitchUnitDown")
map("+alt-arrowleft", "moveunit", "uiRollUnitRight")
map("+alt-arrowright", "moveunit", "uiRollUnitLeft")

map("+alt-arrowup", "editor", "uiPitchUnitUp")
map("+alt-arrowdown", "editor", "uiPitchUnitDown")
map("+alt-arrowleft", "editor", "uiRollUnitRight")
map("+alt-arrowright", "editor", "uiRollUnitLeft")

I think if you add that to your hotkeys file it should work with alt + arrow keys

I should clarify, by rotate objects I mean i could rotate them on any axis I liked with I believe shift + arrow keys

Last time I used this I could rotate objects in the editor, but I can't since coming back to the game. Is that an issue with the mod or something on my side?

Hi Nottud, fan of ur work since aomheavens. I try to create a campaign using the campaign maker. I browsed the location of all scenarios for the campaign maker. But when i try to start them in campaign menu, it sends me back to main menu screen as if it couldn't locate the file. One thing i noticed is that the Aom Main campaigns files like golden gift, browse directly into "scenario" files. While mine browes in C/Programfiles/Steam...etc, and i can't change it. Could it be the issue ? Keep up the great work !

Cool.

I want to use this but I'll wait till some of the crashing bugs are gone. Looks awesome!

Hi! I get crashes when I use the screenshot tool, and I have a solid configuration so I don't think that it is my PC limitations. Any way to make it work? Thank you for your help!

@Mr.H2oman Yea don't know why that happens. I gonna need to look into it.

Hello nottud! I love your editor and thank you so much for it
I have a problem in editor, i think since 2.8 .
The issue is when i go to detailed help in object info my game crash instantly to desktop
I checked it without any other mod installed too but it is still there...

Not any issues regarding 2.8 that I am aware of.

Does this work for the latest version?

Small update - I have increased the screen estate that trigger effects take which I checked works ok for several screen resolutions. Please let me know if there are any problems.

Yes

A map made with this mod will run on an no modded game?

EE seemed to break everything to do with files for some reason. It uses files to work.

It was a feature in the original version which I sadly need to figure out how to fix or remove. EE broke a few things including that.

I tried to enable all techs in the dropdown menu, but it didn't do anything. So I'm guessing, you need to assign minor gods to get techs to work? How do you do this?

I split triggers into a separate DL. Yes all the stuff involving files seems to be broken now from porting over to EE. :(

I did not know about the scale unit issue I will have to look at that next time I do an update.

Some minor issues I have discovered:

1) Scale unit effect only works once every time I open the game
2) I can't save lighting profiles (not a huge problem because I know how to make .lgt profiles in notepad ++, but still a potential bug)
3) No new triggers

I know your old editor added a bunch of stuff I don't see here - I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong or if a lot of features just couldn't be ported.

If you are referring to the debug stuff - when you are in the scenario editor and you go to playtest your scenario, one of the buttons says "Debug". Click that and the scenario will run but there will be a little "D" button in the top right which you can access all the tools.

How do I use this? no menu pops up for me

I have added a debug playtest option adding lots of "cheats" such as unit and terrain manipulation to help playtest your map.

I have written it in such a way that it appears in the main interface but without modifying uimain.xml so should not conflict with any custom ingame ui.

Add triggers to set the techs and then use the playtest in editor option. That best I can suggest for now...

Like to unlock just certain techs in editor, and not all techs,

Is there any way to have champion/medium/heavy hoplites in editor?

Minor bugfix - Custom map size Z dropdown could not be clicked due to being blocked by the label gadget. This has now been resolved.

I would love to add one but unfortunately I don;t have enough code control to be able to add one - the best I can do is to group. One tip you might not know is you can jump to an item using the letter keys on the keyboard providing the list is sorted. You can do this using the Misc object list accessible with the yellow page looking button to the unit list as a drop down with editor names.

Hey, is there any way you can search on the unit box in the editor? It's really annoying and difficult to constantly scroll, and I was wondering if this mod made a search bar, and if not, is there any way to search and quickly find a unit?

Hmm screenshots is one of those areas that I think is completely broken in the port over from the old version of the game. I need to look over and revise that section. I think the actual ingame screenshot feature is broken now so I will probably replace it with tools for hiding the UI to allow manual screenshots to be taken easier.

When I take a screenshot, it'll nearly always crash. I've only found some of the .jpgs and .tgas, but they're 0kb bugged files. Any idea what's going on?

Thanks for this massive update
