How do i make a new race???

[wizzdude2001]

i need to know how to mount the race ive created so i can use it in the game

Technicaly, you can't make a new race in the sense of being able to play them AND the other races on the same map. But you can replace one of the races with the new one. And to do that, ask a more experianced map maker.

I think you can, but it will disable the melee map thingy. Just use an in-game cinematic menu to allow players to keep their current race or use the new ones. The categorization in the editor dosent matter, so even if u put a new naga race under the human category, it wont mean anything. Your only problem is UI, but aside from that, you can create as many as you want.

In the actual game you cant, since the races are scripted in and other stuff. But just.. custom map wise you can, like adding models and stuff.

beware... i tried this but i forgot to copy a melee map 2 edit and after I edited the normal map i could played 3v3 maps untill i uninstalled Wc3 ^_^

To make a new race, youll need to create:
Builder Unit
Basic Infantry Units
Buildings
Upgrades to the Buildings
Fully Custom Heroes
All New Upgrades

It may look easy, but it is not as easy as it sounds.

Builder Unit
- Tortured Soul

Infantry Units
- Tainted Warrior
- Scorched Marksman
- Undead Glider
- Deathwood Rider
- Dead Horseman

Heroes
- Hades
- Dark mage
- Skeletal Madman
- Deathbane

Buildings
- Cemetary
- - Haunted Chapel (Upgrade)
- - Abandoned Asylum (Upgrade)
- Ceremonial Grave (Basic Infantry)
- Silent Cavern (Flying Infantry)
- Deserted Camp (Riding Infatry)
- Grave of Sorrows (Upgrades Building)
- Bloodshed Manor (Heroes)

i think hes actually thinking about addin it to..the actual game, not a map.

 

[Shadowz123]

well, i kinda thought the topic name is "How do i make a new race???", but using it in-game is by Copying and Pasting.

You can acctualy (offcourse you can!) customize a whole race including:
Race name (when you begin picking a race)
Race interface ( the control board interface and cursor can be overskinned )
Race units/buildings ( edit them or make them yourself! )

The race name and infterface are changed in the game to go to 'Advanced' and the click 'Game interface' and set 'custome' on ..

The units can just be edited by the unit editor ..

And voila

 

[Kimbo]

no, you cant, you CAN NOT ADD. you hear me? ADD! not unless you want to spend like..ages and not unless your some awesome programmer dude.

Indeed.. but i wasnt talking about adding a race .. i was talking about replacing one of the existing races..

Well, I made Eternal Chaos, it was a hard task, actually. But I think I divided the races too much =P nice ideas though, Shadow.

wizzdude2001 deserves a neg rep of -2 for tripple posting. . .

Well its simple, at map int create one [your race's town hall] at a players starting location and BOOM it is there. . .

But remember to balence your race or you will end up with my zombie desster where you could mass 1000s of killer zombies but they would end up being slaughtered and lagging and winning. . .

There want that idea. . . .sadly. . .

 

[wizzdude2001]

thx that helps

 

[Dr Super Good]

WHAT IS UP WITH YOUR "HOW I MiNE FOR FISH?!!?!?!?"!?
