Mod help

from Elemental Forums

So i want my armys to be able to use the warg resource without their faction being one of the fallen. I have had a look at the work shop and also some of the xml files. However I cannot work out how to make a mod that would allow me to do this. Does anybody have any suggestions?

I'll give it a shot.

The Warg resource is under CoreWorldResources.XML but this doesn't seem to be it. Mentions "Kennel".

We need to find the building.

Find the EmpireUnlimitedImprovements.xml and look for Kennel. Sure enough, it's there!

Try deleting the code in here:

Code: xml
  1.     <Prereq>
  2.       <Type>Allegiance</Type>
  3.       <Attribute>Empire</Attribute>
  4.     </Prereq>

I'd keep the <prereq> and     </Prereq> though...

If that doesn't work you'll probably need to enable the technology to build the Kennel. It isn't easy but it's certainly possible with a little coding, understanding, and Detective work.

Thx for the reply. Yeh i found that section as well... my only worry was if i changed the xml doc then i wouldn't be able to play multiplayer etc in the future as my files would be different. Or am I missing something?

I believe that multiplayer is fixed in such a way that mods shouldn't effect it. That's why one should NEVER modify a core file.
