    No, I haven't yet. I've been working on some gameplay elements for a Helms Deep map instead. I've already got a working destructible wall that units can walk across, stand, and attack on before it gets blown up instead of current maps its just some destructible rocks or supply depots.

    I fixed the Game Variant problem caused by the 1.1.0 patch. The map can be played publicly again. I made several changes and additions to the map.

    I'm still getting the S2GAME_INTERNAL_ERROR. I really don't know what exactly changed between my old version and my new version for my game variants. I've even checked the MPQ data for both of my versions. There is nothing irregular.

    Edit: Its fixed. I remade the variants AND attributes again. I did it before and it didn't work but it works now... -.-* Plus, I resaved the map as a new file. I think this is what fixed it. -.-;;

    @Phrosen: Go I just went over the general things to do to set you on the right path.

    For the button in the command card for the gate unit, change the command type to Ability and leave requirements none. Select the ability thats the same name as the gate or similar.

    Select the same ability above in the list of linked objects. On the right, in the table of values, go to Ability - Command. Add the button you made to Execute.

    Note: The ability to close the gate, is a morph type ability. By default the ability is named after the gate it will morph into.

    posted a message on Anyway to creating doors\gates?

    @Phrosen: Go

    Create a new button object in the button tab.
    Just select any button icon you like from the list.
    Then go to the lowered version of the gate unit.
    Go to the Command card select the button 2nd to the right on the bottom row.
    You'll see an ability like the name of the gate on the list but no button.
    Just add the button you created to it.
    On the bottom right screen of the Data Window, with the list of linked objects to the gate.
    Select the ability with the name of the gate
    Then on the right go to the Ability -Commands and add the same button for execute.

    You can rename the ability so its easier to remember, if you'd like to Close Gate.
    With name of the gate in Editor - Prefix
    By default, it isn't so straight forward.

    For the trigger, just find the same ability to close the gate in the list.
    Make sure its the exact same one or else it won't work.

    @Phrosen: Go

    Just do the same thing that Araxnid did. You need to make a button for the close ability and then add it to the close ability.

    Its how I got my gates to work.

    I recreated my game variant. I can select the first value now. That's one thing fixed. But I still get the first two errors.

    I can't add more than one computer in the lobby.
    I get S2GAME_INTERNAL_ERROR when I try to join my map through the Join a Custom Game list.
    I can't select the first attribute value in the list, but I can select any other value just fine in the lobby.

    Is there any solutions?
    This started when the patch was released.

    @Rashasi: Go

    Uhh... Its -respawn nazgul.
    Did you guys read the tip?

    I made a few updates.
    Increased attack damage for Faramir, Gandalf and Pippin per attack upgrade.
    +5, +5, +4, respectively.
    Mordor:
    Health Upgrade:
    +10hp to Orc Swordsman and longbow
    Base Cost: 20 minerals, +5 per level.
    Max level: 5
    You can get it at the Encampments.

    If both Mordor or both Minas Tirith players leave, you should still be able to respawn now.

    Only for the Nazgul Screech, thats it. I don't want to load the map with a lot of custom sounds.

    The first one sets the player number/id into individual global variable that correspond with their choice. You can use an array if you want.

    Event -
    Map Initialization
    Action -
    Player Group - Pick each player in (All players) and do (Actions)
    General - Switch (Actions) depending on (Minas Tirith value for player (Picked player))
    (If this player chose Minas Tirith in the lobby,)
    General - If (Minas Tirith)
    Actions
    (Local variable, tells me this choice is taken)
    Variable - Set MinasTirith1 = 1
    (Global variable, tell me who this player is and to be referenced later)
    Variable - Set Player MT1 = (Picked player)
    repeat for each value

    The alliance triggers, since you do know who is playing and who choose what, you must check if they are playing or not before giving them the alliance setting.

    Alliance Triggers:
    Do this for each player/value
    Event -
    Condition -
    (Status of player Player MT1) == Playing
    Actions -
    (Repeat and change for each player/value)
    General - If (Conditions) then do (Actions) else do (Actions)
    If
    (Status of player Player MT2) == Playing
    Then
    Player - Make player Player MT1 and player Player MT2 treat each other as Ally With Shared Vision And Pushable
    Else

    If you want to give players units that correspond to what they choose, use unit groups.
    Create local variables with data type "unit groups".

    Since I made player 1 have Minas Tirith units, I chose that player and added all his units to a unit group and gave control over to the person who choose Minas Tirith.

    Example:
    Unit Group - Pick each unit in (Any units in (Entire map) owned by player 1 matching Excluded: Missile, Dead, Hidden, with at most Any Amount) and do (Actions)
    Actions
    Unit Group - Add (Picked unit) to MinasTirith1 2

    Then give the player the units by doing this:

    Unit Group - Pick each unit in MinasTirith1 2 and do (Actions)
    Actions
    Unit - Change ownership of (Picked unit) to player Player MT1 and Change Color


    1.) I'm still working on the right number for them.

    2.) I fixed it. I was sure I set the right setting. But I think the Editor changed it.

    3.) For mordor, its fine, I believe. Minas Tirith players tend to forget about supply carts, you can get 50 minerals for killing them. Killing Tower of the Guard gives you 30 minerals each.

    4.) I'm still working on it, any suggestions for it?

    5.) I fixed it.

    I added a hero for each Minas Tirith Player. The Minas Tirith units still need tweaking. Any suggestions will help.

    The lobby took the longest to get working just right. Its basically a loop that goes through each player and checks each player's value that they selected in the lobby and store it to a global variable to be referenced through out the game. But the alliance settings was tricky, because you didn't know who was playing or who the player choose to play as. So, I made an if then else for each player. Check if they are playing, then set them to ally or enemy depending on the relation of the two players.

    I made quite a few updates to the map. Sadly I had to nerf Nazgul and Witch King, even though they are quite fun to play as. Also, if you start with only one Minas Tirith player, he will gain control of the other one. If you start with only Gandalf OR Faramir, then they will gain ownership of both Minas Tirith players. Gandalf has priority over Faramir; its just the way I ordered it.
