Posts from How to create a video for a map?

I've figured out how to make the druid move. I only set the final point. But how do I select someone else in the monster link? Some creatures aren't there at all. And what other commands are there besides "move"? "Attack" is clear, but how do I make the same unfortunate druid cast a spell? And another problem: I can't upload a video I made again. In the dialogue menu after loading the map, only the developers' videos are displayed. Perhaps this is the most significant problem.

Ah... I wish I had more time. Anyway, I'll try to put together a small tutorial.

And preferably with pictures at each step) So that even a blockhead like me can understand how to make a video) :smile35:

Yeah, definitely! And with screenshots, so it's easier to understand! :( :( :( :smile12: :smile41: :smile33: :smile05:

When editing a map for a scenario, a very unpleasant thing happens: every time I switch to the tiles tab, the editor crashes. Is there anything I can do about this?

When editing a map for a scene, a very unpleasant thing happens: every time I switch to the tiles tab, the editor crashes. Is there a way to fix this?

When editing a scene, there is only the Objects tab. You cannot change the landscape of the map while editing the video. First, you need to load a map with a ready-made landscape.

By the way, should objects on the map for the video be placed when creating the map itself or when creating the video?

Pay attention, Ment asked:

However you want. Usually, some objects are placed immediately, while others are placed only during video editing (when you want to embellish the scene ;) ). But monsters and heroes can only be placed when creating the scene, which is obvious.

Guys, in my video, I can only apply animation to one hero and one monster. I placed Godric and Rutger on the map, but in the herolink, I can only select Godric, so I can apply the animation to him without any problems. I need to apply the animation to Rutger. I tried changing Godric's name to Rutger's name, but instead, Rutger appeared in Godric's place, and the animation is displayed on him. How can I apply the animation to another hero?

Animation is added using button 9 (on the mini-keyboard). Select the hero, press the button, and choose the animation.

I made a small sketch (a fly-through of the map in a video), but now I can't open it (the folder with the scene has disappeared :confused:). I know where to find the scene (in the map itself, if you open it as an archive), but how can I restart the video to make some changes? And how can I run it within the map itself? :confused: :o :eek:

I know a method: in the map properties, I select StartScene and enter the path to the video I need. Then, I click on the '...' button there. The scene appears in the tree. Now, I can edit it directly there, or I can close the window, right-click on the frame in the 'DialogScene' window, and select Refresh Tables. The missing scene appears in the window. It's not that complicated :)

If needed, I can post screenshots.

Ment, thank you! I'll create the next scene and try it out. But here's another problem: how do I place initially dead units on the map for the cutscene (like in the final cutscene of the first mission, "Dragon Wisdom")? Also, I'm making my third attempt at creating my own campaign. I've already created the first mission, written a couple of scripts (thanks to Ser9K's maps), and today I'll be working on the cutscenes (if you can give me some advice on the units). But objectively, I can't do it alone. If cutscenes can be checked as they are being created, scripts can only be reviewed after completing the mission. And that takes time. And some scripts can't be found anywhere... Although I've seen them in campaigns (both original and fan-made). Who can (and wants to) help me with this difficult task?

Gilraen, Ser9K might be able to make videos for you ;)

No, I want to figure out the videos myself. But I won't be able to write scripts. I need help specifically with that.

Then Ser9K and Ment will be able to help you. :)
Also, Durman knows a thing or two. ;)
