Hello everyone! I decided to delve into this modding system and it seems like I'm doing everything as described here, but in reality, nothing works.
For example, I want the weekly growth for Goblins to be not 20, but 50.
I use WinRar to go into data.pak, find the Gremlin.xdb file in the folder array, press Alt+W to extract a copy of it, then open the copy, change the weekly growth from 20 to 50, save it. Then I create a zip archive from the file with the name, say, Gremlin1.zip, change the extension to Gremlin1.h5u, and put the file in the UserMODs folder.
I start the game, create a standard random game with two mages, at the beginning of the game I build a Goblin building for the first mage, go to buy units, and there is still the standard weekly growth - 20, although I changed it to 50. I switch to the second mage, also build a Goblin building, also go to buy troops, and again I see that the weekly growth remains the same - 20, and not 50 as I wanted...
Please tell me what I am doing wrong :smile45:
You can ask such questions here Modding; you will be understood there.
And the zip archive should have a compression level selected. Choose the maximum compression level for the zip archive. If it's not compressed or uses the first two compression levels, it won't work.
I hope the moderators will move these messages where they need to be.
