We will start by going into Gandalfs ini. (data\ini\object\goodfaction\units\men\gandalf.ini)
Normally, you only need 2 pieces of code from the hero and paste it in the other hero's ini. But some powers might have otherwise. Word of Power only has 2 codes as far as I'm aware of. But anyway, pres Ctrl+F and type in whatever power you want. In my case it is "Word" (without the "). The reason search word and not WordOfPower is because usually it skips the animations and goes straight towards the behavior block. Now i have found my animations,
| Code |
;;; WORD OF POWER ANIMS ON FOOT ;;;
AnimationState = SPECIAL_WEAPON_ONE
StateName = Attacking
Animation
AnimationName = GUGandalfG_SKL.GUGandalfG_SPCK
AnimationMode = ONCE
End
FXEvent = Frame:5 Name:FX_GandalfPreAttackBlast
End
|
I'm taking the one on foot as it still works when the Witch-King is on his horse but the blast will be a bit shorter in height. Now copy the code that you've found and paste it in your hero's ini, but you have to paste it at the end of the AnimationState list. You'll know where the end is because there will be either no more AnimationState's or there will sometimes be one of the hero's power animations.
Next we will need the code its self. Ctrl+f "word" (without the ")
There will be alot of "sword" stuff coming up but just keep on searching for Word of Power.
The code should look like this:
| Code |
;------- WORD OF POWER (BLUE RING BLAST) SPELL --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Behavior = UnpauseSpecialPowerUpgrade ModuleTag_WordEnabler
SpecialPowerTemplate = SpecialAbilityWordOfPower
TriggeredBy = Upgrade_GandalfWordOfPower
End
Behavior = SpecialPowerModule ModuleTag_WordStarter
SpecialPowerTemplate = SpecialAbilityWordOfPower
UpdateModuleStartsAttack = Yes
StartsPaused = Yes
End
Behavior = WeaponFireSpecialAbilityUpdate ModuleTag_WordWeaponFireUpdate
SpecialPowerTemplate = SpecialAbilityWordOfPower
WhichSpecialWeapon = 1
SkipContinue = Yes
UnpackTime = 1700
PackTime = 1
FreezeAfterTriggerDuration = 2500 ; Hold AI for this long after we fire.
AwardXPForTriggering = 0
StartAbilityRange = 80.0
SpecialWeapon = GandalfWordOfPower
End
|
Once again, copy and paste it but this time paste it where some other hero powers are with the behaviors
e.g:
| Code |
;--------- MORGUL BLADE -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Behavior = UnpauseSpecialPowerUpgrade ModuleTag_WitchkingMorgulBlade
SpecialPowerTemplate = SpecialAbilityWitchkingMorgulBlade
TriggeredBy = Upgrade_WitchkingMorgulBlade
End
Behavior = SpecialPowerModule ModuleTag_WitchkingMorgulBladeStarter
SpecialPowerTemplate = SpecialAbilityWitchkingMorgulBlade
UpdateModuleStartsAttack = Yes
StartsPaused = Yes
InitiateSound = AngWitchkingVoiceModeMorgulCorruption ;LurtzVoiceAttackCripplingStrike
End
Behavior = WeaponFireSpecialAbilityUpdate ModuleTag_WitchkingMorgulBladeUpdate
SpecialPowerTemplate = SpecialAbilityWitchkingMorgulBlade
SkipContinue = Yes
UnpackTime = 250
PreparationTime = 1
PersistentPrepTime = 500
PackTime = 100
WhichSpecialWeapon = 1
AwardXPForTriggering = 0
StartAbilityRange = 15.0
MustFinishAbility = Yes
SpecialWeapon = AngmarWitchkingMorgulBlade
End
Behavior = AutoAbilityBehavior ModuleTag_MorgulBladeAutoAbility
SpecialAbility = SpecialAbilityWitchkingMorgulBlade
ForbiddenStatus = INSIDE_GARRISON
AllowSelf = No
Query = 1 MORGULBLADE_OBJECT_FILTER
End |
Just paste it under this type of code,
(it doesn't have to be morgul blade)
That is it for the hero's ini. Credits
CommentsDisplay order: Newest first Radspakr Wolfbane (Team Chamber Member) - Monday February 14, 2011 - 18:46 This is kind of redundant.
The idea of GtO's tutorial was to show how code in basic special powers.
It's the same for both games. Unknown - Tuesday February 8, 2011 - 5:40 :D It works. Thx clank Imdrar - Thursday December 23, 2010 - 8:59 I'm a credit of this? Never noticed. modboy451 - Saturday December 18, 2010 - 13:43 thats because
| Code |
;;; WORD OF POWER ANIMS ON FOOT ;;;
AnimationState = SPECIAL_WEAPON_ONE
StateName = Attacking
Animation
AnimationName = GUGandalfG_SKL.GUGandalfG_SPCK
AnimationMode = ONCE
End
FXEvent = Frame:5 Name:FX_GandalfPreAttackBlast
End
|
has the flag: SPECIAL_POWER_ONE
so does:
| Code |
;;; FIRE BALL SPECIAL POWER ;;;
AnimationState = SPECIAL_WEAPON_ONE
Animation = Throwing Fireball
AnimationName = IUSaruman_ATKB
AnimationMode = ONCE
End
FrameForPristineBonePositions = 27
End
|
the fire ball and the Word of power ability
both ar flagged with SPECIAL_POWER_ONE flag...i don't know where you go to change it...
but that is why you get that glitch... clank234 - Thursday December 16, 2010 - 5:37 @Modboy451
It worked fine for me except wen i used fireball he started with Word of Power but then the ball came out. Otherwise i have had no problmes with it
--------
sorry for double post,
also, this tutorial isn't meant to teach people how to model modboy451 - Saturday December 11, 2010 - 15:46 Note: To Clank...
ERROR!!!
ANIMATIONS FROM OTHER UNITS WILL NOT WORK UNLESS THE MODEL IS BOUND TO THAT SKL!!!
EX:
Celeborn's (childobject at bottom of elrond.ini)animations/skl are the same as Elrond's so if you take one from elronds and add it to celeborn it WILL work...BUT...
gandalfs and thw which king's SKL are not the same of you add the animation listed above you might crash your game or make you unit stand funny like you see while modeling it(arms sticking out) if you want the animations to work you have to bind the model you want to use to Gandalfs SKL and use a model conditions state where he changes models and skeletons and then put that animations under that (flag the condition state and the animation with USER_# (i know 1 and 2 work for sure but some units already use that flag for something else)
