now livingworldplayers.ini and livingworldregions.inc go hand in hand. If you raise one, you gotta raise the other. Mainly because if you raise the global CP limit in livingworldplayers, then the regions in WOTR are limited so a big invasive army of the opponents that has a cp limit of 7200 is definitley going to defeat your defensive army of 720 CP. And if you raise the region's CP limit, then the global CP limit can't meet the regions expectations.

So, open up livingworldplayers, which luckily isn't a big file. In it you will see each factions individual CP limits, like-

Code



    StartingWorldCP = 1500

    MaxWorldCP = 1500

    

    StartingHeroCP = 750

    MaxHeroCP = 750

the heroCP is how large your hero armies can grow, so feel free to edit that to what you want it to be.

This concludes this tutorial. I hope it helped you learn more about living world.

By the way has any one noticed that the code for
amon sul (ruins) should be:

RestrictBuildings
Buildings = Fortress
NumberAllowed = 1
End

not:
RestrictBuildings
Buildings = Fortress
NumberAllowed = 0
End

since it is infact not a world map fortress, you should be able to build a fortress in amon sul (ruins).
[Ea was going to put in amon sul as a world map fortress, as can be seen by offical EA screenshots, guess they forgot to fix the fortress coding!].

Although it has been quite a long time, I have made a small update to this article by giving information on the first page about turning army leaders into regular armies, like when you are bringing one hero to another faction who is an army leader, this can cause quite a build up of army leaders in one faction, so I explained how to turn army leaders into normal armies. It was a very simple task but it was just recently that I took the time to figure it out lol.

Interesting article :)

Back when I was actively modding BFME 2, this area, the WotR mode, was hardly looked at. Nice to see there is starting to be some interest in it. :)
