Welcome to my first of many tutorials to come. For those of you familiar with ini files, you will probably just be able to take the files and run with them. If you are not as familiar, I've tried to walk you throught using the files.

The purpose of this tutorial is to provide the tools and instructions necessary to create your own hero based on the Dwarven Sage Create-A-Hero provided by EA. The files for the heroes are spread out through a number of files, so I've combined them to create a single object file per type to be used as a template in creating custom heroes. I'll be added "Hero Packs" for each faction. All I ask is that you reference me (robnkarla) somewhere in your documentation and send me an e-mail with a link to your mod so I can see what you have done with the base files.

I've not seen these type of files/tutorials and I've created most of these while working on my mod - RJ-RotWK.

The first file I've uploaded is the Dwarven Sage file that you'll find at the bottom of the page. I've included 9 files in the rar file to be used:


BackgroundButton.psd - Photoshop file for creating hero selection buttons.
BlankCharacter.psd - Photoshop file for creating hero portraits.
commandset.ini - Basic commandset for the hero
Dwarven[HeroName].ini - Object file for the CAH
experiencelevels.ini - Experience level entries
gamedata.ini - Experience level entries
lotr.str - String entries
upgrade.ini - Upgrade entries
weapon.ini - Weapon entries

Page 4 - Special Powers - Leap

go to playertemplate.ini, find the block of the faction you want to add it to and add it to the line that contains all the other hero names
