Help, I want to create a scene with creatures like in the first campaign of the Hammers of Fate. I want the creatures to fight on the map. What do I need to do for this? I've read everything, but I don't understand.

Using the script
PlayObjectAnimation(script name of the creature, animation type, animation style)
The script name of the creature is set in the menu on the left
Animation type ("rangeattack", "attack01", "specability", "death", "hit", "happy", "idle00", "stir00")
Animation style: IDLE - periodic, ONESHOT - single, after the animation, the object returns to its previous position, ONESHOT_STILL - after the animation, the object remains in the final position.

Thank you very much. I knew everything about the editor, but I didn't know how to create scenes. Could you please provide more detailed instructions on how to do this? Where and what should I enter?

Firstly, all of this is in the manual. Secondly, here is a working example: PlayObjectAnimation("soldat1", "attack00", IDLE); You place a monster, name it soldat1, and enjoy watching it swing its weapon in the air. The name is assigned in the scriptname line.

where do I need to change the creature's name? I can't figure it out. Please provide the path to the name that needs to be changed.

Also, please provide a link to the relevant section in the manual.

Guys, can you tell me how to add screenshots of the map locations to the map description? Preferably several, like in the standard maps.

Something like this:

А, вот почему.

I enter "soldat1" there, but nothing happens. When I place a monster, the name field is completely empty, and the table where I need to enter the name is at the bottom.

I don't have anything in the name field when I place a monster, and the table where you need to enter the name is at the bottom.

That's correct. I just already named mine.

markal

I enter soldat1 there, and nothing happens.

Did you select the monster you want to name?

I place the monster and select it. Then I enter the name where it should be, "attack00," and nothing happens. What am I doing wrong?

It seems you don't have the extended editor, but that shouldn't affect it. You need to enter exactly "soldat1" and specifically in the name field. Then save. For reliability, place a skeleton or zombie. Test it on an empty map (where there are no other scripts).

You are right about the editor not being expanded; that’s likely the issue. I’ll keep looking. Can you provide your own? I have version 3.0 of the game, a licensed copy. I updated to version 3.1, but it still doesn’t work. I don’t know what else to do. Can you create mods?

I have a question. In the Necromancer campaign in the original game, the 4th mission has two levels of the Dungeon. :confused: Does anyone know how to create a Dungeon on the surface level?

Of course, that won't help. The expanded editor isn't the solution.

Ser9K

In the profile folder, in the editor file, change 1 to 0 in the line setvar map_editor_mode. And voila, the editor is expanded.

I completely agree.
