Thanks for the reply, Heaven. How do you make a spell only available to a particular faction?

Using Custom Heroes/Champions in LH Modding Elemental Forums

Is there a way to force your custom sovereign to either start with or acquire specific heroes? I want my custom sovereign and faction to use heroes of the same race/faction.

Problem Playing Game in Sorcerer King Support SorcererKing Forums

I just installed and started plying SK today. I've in the past played Elemental/Fallen Enchantress/Legendary Heros without any issues.

f you use steam, goto library and right click on the Galciv3 game, and you will see properties. After that, in the default General Tab, click on the launch options button. Here, type in "cheat" and this will be added to the process launch of galciv3. For those that dont have steam, you will need to create a shortcut item of the Galciv3.exe, and then right click on it and go to properties.

1> Filters and sorts on the Ship and Colony lists 2> Hot key to pick Rally Point (Was the T key in GalCivII) 3> Ability to mine from any starbase. 4> In Ship Designer a global size slider to set the size of the entire ship with ship size in meters. 5> The ability to change production on multiple shipyards from the Governor's page as we had in GC2.

Display Problem on User Designed Ship in GalCiv III Support GalCiv3 Forums

I designed this large ship. The main hull is displaying extremely shrunken making the ship appear to be a flying wing on the main map. I can provide the ship files or the saved game if requested. <img src="httphttp://www.curtis-home

Colony maintenance might be too low, but I find that ship maintenance is very high. I suppose that if you were forced into a war early game, you might be glad of the cheap colony maintenance.

Ship Parts from GalCiv2 in GalCiv III Modding GalCiv3 Forums

Is it possible and has anyone tried to mod the ship parts (jewelry) from GalCiv2 into GalCiv3? Some of those parts I'm really missing in this iteration of the game.

Future Ideas in GalCiv III Future Ideas GalCiv3 Forums

1-Add a hotkey for Rally Points. With GalCiv2 you could click the "T" key and immediately get the dialog to select a Rally Point. 2-Add sorting to ship and planet lists (list on right of screen) as GalCiv2 had. Extra credit if you can also filter ships or planet based on criteria such as ship size or sponsorship of a particular shipyard. 3-Since mining is far more critical to the game, allow the ability for a starbase to have more than one base function (i.e. can b

Reply to Twilight: Tolmekian's TechTree Fix v3.51 Release 05-10-13 in Modding GalCiv2 Forums

I started out being impressed with this mob until I noticed the lack of farms. I played a couple hundred turns figuring I just needed to research the right tech. When I finally realized no farms were forthcoming, I quit the game and headed here to verify my suspicions. Nice mod but the lack of farms is a show stopper for me. I want more control over the population of a planet than the one-size-fits-all solution you provided. It seems silly that I can build multiple l

Is that really all that people worry about?

[quote who="GFireflyE" reply="12" id="3375021"] Quoting Aerion Istari, reply 11I've always treated staffs as a focus item first and a weapon second. But a staff that gives a low power ranged attack without a mana cost would be a good addition. But the big problem with anything that gives a ranged attack is the huge hit you get on initiative. That means they may not be able to cast that crucial spell in time to save a champion or win a battle. I understa

Reply to Random items not so random? in Legendary Heroes Elemental Forums

[quote who="Heavenfall" reply="15" id="3374264"] Seed is randomized because a static seed allows you to predetermine the sequence of returns, not because the returns would be the same numbers without randomizing the seed. Unless they have chosen a static seed that just so happens to give a sequence of results where pairs are probable, changing seed will have no impact on this.[/quote] If they reseed the generator every time they call it but call it with the same seed every time

Reply to Random items not so random? in Legendary Heroes Elemental Forums

I don't know how it is coded so I can make any specific statements... but I'd have a look at how the code seeds the random number generator. Is it possible the code is passing the same seed for subsequent calls? http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/cstdlib/srand/ Initialize random number generator The pseudo-random number generator is initialized using the argument passed as seed .

Assassins should become archers. Defenders are great tanks to keep nasty-bad foes off your mages and archers. My ideal primary party (and in this order) includes a Mage (DPS), Defender (tank),Mage (healer/archer), Assassin (archer) and Warrior (DPS).

If I recall in MoM, you created items with a spell. You could pick attributes of the item you want (usually jewelry IIRC) and depending on how many or powerful attributes it had, the longer it took to cast the spell.

Reply to How about an LH Modding forum? in FE Modding Elemental Forums

From a modder's perspective, I think the biggest thing that needs to be changed for a FE mod to work in LH is for all damage types other than Pierce (Cut/Blunt) needs to be changed to Pierce. Item weights have been done away with and replaced with reducing combat moves but I think that leaving the weights in would probably still work but would be ignored (though I have not actually tested this). Even the Champion goodie huts still work but the game will not add them randomly.<

Reply to How about an LH Modding forum? in FE Modding Elemental Forums

Actually, from a modding perspective, there isn't much difference between FE and LH. Many mods would work with either or require very minor changes to be portable.
