--- Exceptions ---

As I said before, this is a simple example and there are quite a few exceptions to the rule.
(For now) I won't go into weaponsets or abilities based on special weapons. These require additional editing in a few other parts of the CaH files.

For the stealth exception we need to make an additional edit to createahero.ini.

As a start, find "Create-A-Hero Stealth And Camouflage Updates".
All stealth powers come with either a stealth of invisibility module.
As you can see, all these modules are listed in this ini file, instead of in createaheropowers.inc.
The other two behaviours (Enable & Unpause) remain in that file.

You'll also notice that the modules all have RequiredUpgrades and ForbiddenUpgrades.

In the required upgrades you put the class to get the upgrade.
This can only be one class! If you want multiple classes to have the same stealth ability, you will have to make multiple modules.
In addition you also place the same upgrade as named in the createaheropowers.inc.

In the ForbiddenUpgrades, you need to place "Upgrade_CreateAHeroMapMode", this is to prevent your hero from activating his stealth ability in the CaH creation menu.
Also, in case you are making a chain of stealth modes, you can add the upgrade names of all other stealth abilities in the chain here.

Update:
Among the additional parts for stealth abilities, you can also find an additional piece of code for the disguise ability. Some people had troubles modding that ability. Credit to Cahik for solving their problems.


Have fun :)

Nice tutorial.
Can you help me in something? I am new in the site and I want to create a new ability for create a hero archers. It would be a passive ability that increases the range and attack speed of the bow. I noticed that I can do it in weapon.ini and I tried creating a new weapon based on the CreateAHeroBasicRangedWeapon. As soon as the hero gets this new ability in game I want to update this CreateAHeroBasicRangedWeapon to my new weapon object . Is this even possible? Tried it in createaheroweaponupgrades.inc but the program don't really accept anything

I need some help with my project, I'm making a goblin create a hero, I have him in the Servant of sauron area and I need to add Mount/Dismount Scorpion & Toggle Weapon. If you could help me that would be great (I have a forum file in the BFME2/RTWK section the goblin one talking about adding the Goblin Fiend)

Thanks for the guide. But do you know how to convert the special power of Mount/Dismount into the power of Elven CaH Archer?
