Any get the streetlamps to work? I want a night game with working lights, but have had no luck.

can you please be more specific on how to play a custom map in skirmish/online?

@ Zanerken

Yes, you can play Custom Maps on ESO2, which you can get on from your games. Click MultiPlayer and ESO. Ther you can host, join and chat to your liking.

@ goblin5

As of now, no. This might become a feature in the upcoming X-pack. If you checked on HG, and they said no, then for sure, it's no.

@ h0tsauce4thesoul

When you are hosting on ESO2, you can load a map, and instead of picking the ES designed Random Maps, you can choose one of the Custom Scripted Maps. You must have them in you RM folder though. Read my previous posts about where you must place them.

thank you

Any more questions [:p] If you contineously post your questions here, in this thread, and not make new threads, other forumers might follow along and do the same, and that's the goal. To have a bank of questions answered here, where people can always refer to. [:)]

Well my problem is that i just can't find any good scenarios and if i download some , they dont have extencions xs and xml , anyone knows a good site ?? And this is a question so it is supposed to be in this topic

I finally win "Ai just stands nothing doing" problem, becouse of you. thanks:)

but 3 qouestions please answer

1) Was my mistake or what, but hen I bild that space, where you build trading post (cherokee) and some native houses. but when I tested a game, i can't build trading post on this.. am I missing something?

2) is this picture from cinematic work or i am again missing something?

3) Why is all that hard to work (specially AI,and that things) that you have it in minute in AoE2 for example?

First of all, welcome to the forums Jelledejelle!

Here's an answer to your question:

The best place (and only place) to download anything AoE3 is http://aoe3.HeavenGames.com. Go to the "Downloads" section, and you will see several different categories. Follow the instructions (if) provided in downloading them.

@ Rihtaršic
I'm glad I could help.
Here are answers to your 3 questions:

1) You must "select" which Native Americans you want to use for your CS, as well as placing a socket. To shorten things, read this.

2) That should be a cinematic, if I'm not mistaken, taken by a scenario designer as a screenshot for public viewing in some forum (perhaps aoe3 heaven). You can use triggers to start and end a cinematic, you can create a camera track for a cinematic, & you can also download this mod to change pitch and other things.

3) AoE3 has a very complicated yet sophisticated yet crappy editor. It is a lowsy ripoff of the AoM editor. If you read all the answers in this thread, and all the answers in the Wiki, you should be able to get around in the editor 98% of the time. Remember, this is the question thread, and if you have a question, ask it here, and I will answer.


Hope I helped.

In a custom scenario, how do you get to see what your ai allie sees? And how do you set the dificulty level?

PS. Thanks for the welcome. [Edited on 1/26/2006]

many thanks !

but know what. Well In native maneger i chose all native tribes possibile, but still don't work:(

@ cypher909

You set a trigger with high priority, run immedietely, and with the effect Player LOS change...or you can go into "Scenario", "Player Data" and set computer players to your team and you'll have their LOS. You have to get a custom effect, but because it was imported from AoM, it probably wouldn't work. Get it here.
