To Create a Custom Faction: First, go to "C:\??\Elemental\data\English" and look up the "CoreRaceConfigs.XML" file for reference. Create a NEW .XML file under "C:\Users\??\Documents\My Games\Elemental\Race". Basically copy the CoreData of ONE faction and modify it. Good luck!

Reply to finally the brigands do their job ! in War of Magic Elemental Forums

Yeah, the brigands kinda comes fast at you in large numbers during NORMAL difficulty. I was totally left unprepaired. I lost my secondary city and need to build an army FAST! UPDATE : Early in my newest game I left my city for ONE TURN and was ONE SPACE away. A bandit party with HUGE attack values came out and destroyed it right before my eyes. It was aweful... :( <img style="border: 2px solid black;" src="http://a.imageshack.us/img210/21

Just to let everyone know. You can do A LOT with all the resources we have now. I've successfully made a .XML file with a HANDFUL of custom heroes in it, they show up ingame, and they function properly. I've also created my own custom faction . I'm kinda documenting things here , if you are interested. I'm gonna play around with custom buildings later. Awesome! I love

[quote who="Annatar11" reply="13" id="2698230"] city improvements too It's all in the XMLs. Once you have your tile, just find the file that lists city improvements and work with that to add your tile to the list. I didn't realise you were turning of tactical battles again for this beta or am I experiencing a bug? It's not really a "bug", but they forgot to include some files (including tactical battle maps) in the distribution hence why no battles yet. They're

Looks good. Are you guys going to cover how to create heroes/champions, items, and city improvements too? Thanks. EDIT: Factions too, good point, BlackRainZ. So far I created some sort of a religious monument to use as a city improvement. Can't wait to continue.

Reply to [3C] Barracks only takes up a single tile square. Should be larger in WOM BETA Builds Elemental Forums

If we're going to expand the tile sizes of some of the buildings we need more tiles. I had a nice city last night that hit the 40 limit because I had two farms in it. However, I agree with you but we should rename the barracks to armory and have a separate building for the barracks. That could also give us a bonus to unit training.

I was under every impression that they were going to re-implement the faction creation system in either a future beta or at release along with all the other modding tools. It'd kinda suck if they didn't.

Reply to Elemental: BETA 4 Preview in Elemental Dev Journals Elemental Forums

I'm not scared at all. I'm having to force myself not to play it right now so I can get other things done. Also, in time the graphics will improve. My question is how are custom champions/heroes implemented ? I'm kinda hoping there will be a folder with all the hero .XML files or something in it we can just throw more people into. I'd like to make many new heroes, can I get started in beta 4?

Reply to [3c] [bug] Remove inns once quest completed in WOM BETA Builds Elemental Forums

Agreed. I'm sure the questing mechanic will be revised in future releases. It seems pretty unfinished at this point. EDIT: I kinda like the Inn lights on/off idea for active quests. Maybe they could regenerate regular quests too. Could also use 'em as a spawning ground for new champions/heroes.

Reply to [Gameplay] Automatic and Passive Culture Spread- Improved Culture in WOM Ideas Elemental Forums

Yeah, I am regarding "culture" as the border expansion. The monument would be more like a GalCiv II "Cultural Center" planetary improvement rather then an "Influence Starbase". I'm thinking more along the lines of the Civilization 4 mechanic here. I also wouldn't mind seeing prestige reworked a little. Maybe just have a "Growth" factor that is dependent on food and whatever the current Prestige is or something. I think with more food should result in more growth.

Reply to [suggestion] non wandering champions in WOM Ideas Elemental Forums

I kinda like the way champions wander and actually do things in the world. However, I do agree that it can be a pain to ketch them or keep them alive. Also, perhaps the Inn should attract them to rest inside for a while and generate some Gildar per turn. Things I'd like to see Champions do: Champions should be replenished when killed (create a new one). Champions should sometimes

Everyone has ideas which are pretty good, the developers listen to feedback and communicate, and people are pretty respectful and open-minded. This is a really good game and it plays a lot better then any screenshot can display. I've played a few things that had some elements of Elemental but nothing with
