Map Editor Question in FE Modding Elemental Forums

When placing improvements how do you get them to join cities they are adjacent to? When I place them they don't attach to the city and are useless. I could swear they attached automatically when I did it once awhile ago.

Ok the issue with mounts has been fixed, you will have to re-download both mods and start a new game though. Here are Dropbox links until WinCustomize approves them. New Umber Add Traits By the way this should be compatible with StormWorld.

Making new races is very complicated, especially if you want them to look unique. Here is an editor that allows you make basic new races. Yes to add custom logos you have to edit xml. If it's on a custom faction that faction file can be found in MyDocuments/MyGames/FallenEnchantress/Race. You will want to add your custom logos to the /FallenEnchantress/Mods/GFX folder. The tag you edit to change a faction logo is <Pr

I remember when this quest had you fight something like 6 Ashwakes instead of 3. The problem is that this quest used to be the endgame quest before they switched it to the Wildland.

All user created quests and goodie huts will be placed on random maps according to their rarity. You have to include the created tile in a goodie hut or quest for it to spawn.

Reply to [1.01] Making Trained Units Graphically Unique in FE Wishlists Elemental Forums

[quote who="Heavenfall" reply="2" id="3275911"]One thing which would help a lot with making your units look unique is letting us modify the colours ourselves in the unit designer. Metal colour, skin colour, cloth colours, even mount colours.[/quote] First though colors would need to actually effect how armor looks. Not sure I would want that much customization in the unit designer. Hair and Skin should probably be set in the faction editor.

[1.01] Making Trained Units Graphically Unique in FE Wishlists Elemental Forums

A lot of talk recently has been about making trained units play differently but little of it has discussed how to make them look different without consuming tons of resources. Here are a few ideas to make units physically discernible without requiring tons of new assets. 1. This one is easy and obvious. Modify the skins on armour so they change more in relation to faction colours. The colour of your armour needs to vary much more depending on your faction. Right n

[quote who="Khorak" reply="8" id="3274367"]Fixing the Wraith is as simple as removing the -1 hitpoints per level. There. Done. Their bonus ability will still be kinda suck, but they have a couple of unit-traits (one of which will now be vaguely usable instead of utterly pointless). At least then they won't be any worse than Tarth, who immediately have no trait at all as soon as you have the audacity to have more than a measly three units.[/quote] No this is definitely the wrong wa

Reply to What is the redeeming quality of the Wraith race? in Fallen Enchantress Elemental Forums

Nothing, they suck. Wraith blood also unlocks some unit traits but they suck as well. Zealot: +3 initiative. -1 hp per level. Thereby reducing the unit's hp per level to 0. Enough said. Hallowed Rite: +5 mana per kill. A half decent reward but your probably better off taking a trait that helps compensate for Wraiths being so weak. You also actually have to have the unit get the final blow, which can be very inconve

Reply to Guys, the point was over there. in Fallen Enchantress Elemental Forums

I don't think we need to lose custom units. Several small things can be done to make units unique while retaining unit design. Besides how would we make custom faction without custom units? 1. More unit traits tied to race and faction traits. Some ideas here . 2. Reducing trait spaces on units to 2 from 3, so that units can't do everything at once. 3. Some minor graphical changes to armor. Every unit currentl

[quote who="dangerlinto" reply="5" id="3271976"] Homogenizing all the weapons initiative leads inevitably towards simply picking the weapons that does the most damage.

Right now there are some problems with unit design and balance. Units don't feel uniqu and elite units dominate the game. Here are some ideas on how to fix this. The Strength Trait Should Be Removed The strength trait is undoubtedly the most popular unit design trait and that is why it should be removed It really has no reason to exist because you should add it to every single melee unit ever, and adding it is pointless
