4. Only with scripts.

Could you, for example, write a script for me so that a creature doesn't let you pass until its requirement is met? Or better yet, provide an example map.

A video on the map? Enter StartAdvMapDialog(0);

I'm sorry for asking the same thing again, but I can only enter this in Edit Script, and that's it: StartAdvMapDialog(0)??? If possible, with an example map, I'd like to see where I made my mistake. Thank you for the answer to everyone!!!:)

I can't write the script because I haven't created such functions before. Yes, exactly. If you have only one video clip. For it to work, a camera must be set up and the time for the dialogue must be specified. Ment can provide more detailed information on all these issues.

1. As far as I remember, the text in the dialogue with the seer simply matches the description of the quest he gives. 2. Code in a text file.

I have a known issue: after saving a map in the editor, it doesn't load (error - can't load D:\...). But! It weighs 43 kilobytes, not 22 bytes; the map name doesn't contain Russian letters; the file path is also in English; some of the maps I created for testing do open. I don't understand what to do; has anyone encountered this and knows how to fix it?

Save more often and create backups (at least 3).

Sometimes, archiving can fail (for example, if it starts but is then forcibly terminated). I don't think there's much that can be done about it; it's just a matter of chance.

I know of three errors:

1) If you edited the map as an administrator, it will only load in the editor as an administrator, and if you worked as a user, it will only load as a user.

2) If you mess around with modifications on the map or make mistakes in the scripts, the map will be corrupted after saving.

3) The map will not load in the editor if it is not saved in the maps folder of the game.

Interesting. 1) I've never encountered this, but 2) and 3) work fine for me. Or are these errors not universal?

I know of three bugs:

2) If you mess around with the map using modifications or make mistakes in the scripts, the map will become corrupted after saving.

As far as I know, errors in mods or scripts only cause those mods/scripts to not work on that particular map; I've never heard of a situation where these errors would cause the map to be saved with corrupted files, making it impossible to edit the map anymore:confused:

I know about this bug; with it, you can edit the map, but you can't add new files to it. When I accidentally made a video and then remembered that I needed to add text messages, adding the messages resulted in the error "Archive is corrupted," and the video files were renamed (Ment, you remember, you told me about this renaming when it happened to me too :)). The solution is: rename someone else's map (without videos!!!) to your map's name, copy the contents of your map (don't copy the video) into it, and, after all the text files are in place, "repair the video" and put it back into the map.

You can simply archive it manually using WinRAR.

Maybe this has already been asked, but I was too lazy to read 75 pages.

How do I add quests and objectives to a map? As far as I understand, they are added through the Map Properties Tree. Could someone explain this in detail, preferably with screenshots?

---------------------------------------
Never mind, I found a Russian guide.

Is there a way to reduce the number of creatures generated on the map?
To clarify: for example, a week of Cerberuses or Blade Dancers begins, and they start appearing every few centimeters on the map. It's getting a bit annoying...

It is possible to prohibit such weeks.

How do I do that?
