How to update BFME II maps to work with Angmar faction in ROTWK?
I have a few third party maps that I downloaded and they were set to work with Battle for Middle Earth II.
I have bought the Rise of the Witch King (ROTWK) expansion and am finding that if any of the computer AI opponents (like when I play skirmish offline) end up being the new faction (Angmar) then the only thing that happens with that faction is they have a stronghold and two builders, but they don't do anything. They just sit there and nothing happens. They don't build things, generate troops, etc. like all the other factions do. Is there any way to get these maps updated so that they work natively with the ROTWK expansion? I tried opening the map in World Builder and just saving it to the same file but that didn't seem to do anything to fix the problem. I'm very unfamiliar with how World Builder works, by the way. So, I'm asking if anyone might be able to help me out here. How do you go about getting maps designed for BFME II to take full advantage of the new faction in ROTWK? Thanks much. |

Wanted to put up a follow-up to let others know the solution. Here goes:
ROTWK comes with a program called World Builder which is used to make and edit maps. So, I started that program up and loaded one of the maps I want to update. Then I went to the Edit menu and chose EDIT PLAYER LIST. In the dialog, for me it started at the Player_8=" Player_8" line. So, if I'm on that line and I click the ADD SKIRMISH PLAYERS button, it seems that nothing happens. Nothing is added to the list in the top box. HOWEVER, if I click OK and then click the Edit menu and choose EDIT PLAYER LIST, at the very bottom, it then lists the SkirmishAngmar=" SkirmishAngmar" SkirmishAngmar does not show up in any of the four boxes below for Allies, Enemies, How Player Regard Others or How Others Regard Player. So anyway, once that SkirmishAngmar entry is in the top area, I save the map. There is also a "manual" way of doing it inside World Builder. Click the New Player button (in the Edit Player List menu) Choose Angmar Check the box "Is Computer Controlled?" Name it like the other factions are (SkirmishAngmar) - there are two name bits to fill in. Click OK Save the map and that should also work. |
