I've decided to make this hero mod beacuse there are some heroes that I think would be really fun to have. If any of you have played Vapula's Hero Mod for BFME 1, it will be in the same category. I just add the heroes I want, not so that it fits the time and place the game happens.
I've planned to add
Men of the West:
Halbarad; A dunedain, and a close friend of Aragorn. He'll be a leadership kind of unit.
Elves:
Celeborn; Make him useable in the Skirmish/War of the Ring modes. Change his powers
Dwarves:
Grimbeorn; He'll be able to transform into a bear.
Bard II; Prince of Dale. The heir of the man who killed Smaug the Golden. He'll have bonuses on killing dragons, and use the bow
Mordor:
Gothmog; The orc liutentant. Commanded the forces in the battle on Minas Tirith
Mahud; A man on a Mumakil. Leadership bonuses to mumakils
Ringrwraiths; make them mountable on both nazgul and horse on the same hero
Isengard:
Ugluk; The Isengard liutentant which lead Merry and Pippin towards Isengard. It will be Vapula's Ugluk from BFME I with a summon
I'm back from the dead (or huge amount of schoolwork and FM07, if you're picky ), and suddenly felt the modding-urge take hold of me. The problem is that I've forgotten almost everything, so the beginner tutorials on the site is very helpful . And, of course, I wanted to make the biggest and greatest mod of all time (like all noobs).
When I got to my "senses", I figured out I'd try to finish my Hero Mod (if anyone remembers a year back in time), if there's any interest in it.
I've made it start on patch #6 and fixed some error in the codes, but that's about it from the old release. But if no-one cares, I'm not gonna finish it.
So, I wondered, is there any interest in this mod, or should I just stop it and (maybe) join someone else?
I'll post the powers I've planned to give the heroes, so that people can make comments and suggestions. Gondor Halbarad; Rank 1: Mount Rank...
I'm just here to tell everybody that the computer f****d itself in the a**e, and the backup I had was months old, so the mod was hugely set back...
What's funny about that...?
lol sounds like a good mod, haha i laughed when i read the description and i found that the new dwarven hero could transform into a bear xD that made me laugh! so good luck!
Hey, I just DL'd the Alpha of this and when I go to start it it says all of this:
------------------------------------------------------------------
An upgrade mask references Upgrade_MordorBarbedArrows, which is not an Upgrade
Error parsing field 'TriggeredBy' in block 'Object' in file 'data/ini'object/evilfaction/hordes/mordor/mordorhordes.ini', line 1244.
--------^ It says that part like three times ^--------
6 addresses:
(unknown)(0):game.dat+241550 Debug::PostStaticInit+3390
(unknown)(0):game.dat+2294796
FXParticleSystem::DefaultModuleKey<0>::operator=+119787
(unknown)(0):gamedat etc.......
---------^Again, I don't want to type all that crap, but it does 6 differnt ones like that^-------------------
Because of the severity of this error the game will now exit.
------------------------------------------------------
So, I don't know if it's just me or what, but I would definitly call that a problem.

First time on here for 1,5 months and a comment :o
The problem is that the mod is for an old patch. Sorry... Either use an old patch (the mod uses nr. 4, I think), or recode the md yourself... :P
Because I'm tired of modding, and just want to get the mod done, in as little time as possible ;)
why not add Radagast the Brown?
yah same here im a fan of all dwarves and them being able to transform is completely awesome :)
Sounds really interesting, I'm especially looking forward to Beorn and his transform-ability.
Glad that you look forward to the mod :)
And I won't add Smau, I think it would be to unbalanced. But you can add him yourself. To learn how to mod go to my site kou.the3rdage.net. Remove the kou bit infront and go to the forums You there have every possibility to add Smaug to your own mod, or mine ;) Just remmber to ask if you're gonna release your mod
This mod sounds gr8. I've always wanted to play as these characters and i can't wait for it to be finished. That said, it would be brill if u could make a Smaug. I dunno how 2 mod so it's probs pretty hard so i'm not bothered if u can't
