Making mods for Dominions II. [Basic editing/modding discussion.]

[Pocus]

In doms I, you can add new units, but you cant incorporate them in current races. They are not producable either.

dunno if something more has been made on this topic. I dont thinkt it is high on the priority list.

wow that would be awesome! A LotR scenario!
We can setup alliances in the editor, so that scenario would rock!

I hope that we can do all this modding! I mean if the editor wont contain these stuff, maybe we still can modify text/data? files to add nits and rename kingdoms etc..???
Any info from the devs about this?

So how can you use them ? Only as part of a scenario setup ? Or only in the Battle sim ?
Not very useful ...

you can only use them in scenario setup. You can create a balrog, but you cant assign it to a race.

in doms I all datas are in the binary. They are not encrypted, but I dont think you have legally the right to modify the executable. I dont know if in doms II some of the datas are in external files.

Plz, give us the right and the possibility to mod it, like we can mod Space Empires 4!
If all stuff will be binary, can you release an additional unit/race etc editor?

[Mortifer]

Well, er perhaps someone from Illwinter can give us some infos?

We won't oppose anyone's efforts to mod the game in any way. Mod's lead to more sales not less .

Plus I would love a LOTR scenario .
