Adding heroes from scenario

Ok, so I have played the scenario a few times, mostly due to wanting to see all the choices of companions ... since some didn't like others (very cool idea btw)

Anyway, if you play a random generated map, only 2 of these companions are able to be recruited.

How do I add these into the game? I cannot seem to find the correct files.

Oh, so in the scenario don't just grab the first ones you see?

go into your

'C:\Program Files\Stardock Games\FallenEnchantress\data\English\Campaigns'(this is for 32 bit windows)

'C:\Program Files (x86)\Stardock Games\FallenEnchantress\data\English\Campaigns'(this is for 64 bit windows)

folder and COPY the FECampaign_Units1.xml, FECampaign_Units2.xml and FECampaign_Units3.xml files into your my games\fe\units folder, then start the game and you might be able to see the champions in the sandbox.

hope this helps

So I found what I was looking for in CoreUnits ... unfortunately just adding those files inside the folder did not give me the desired results.

The information that is within those FECampaign_Units files is much cleaner and easier to see where it begins and ends.

So it brings me to wonder, if I spend the time to clean up the file to look like that of the campaign files, will it cause any issues with the game, or should I add it in like a mod?

add like a mod, also there might be a a line in the units that hide or disable them, but as I have not done a thorough read of the files can not advise further.

Ok, so I did all the hard work to clean up the file. So when I place it in the mod folder, how do I disable the core file so that no doubles occur?

These heroes don't appear in the normal game, therefore there won't be a "double" problem. What you want to do is just give them a new internalname and set them up so they can randomly appear.

Ok, it is done. Attached is a copy of the code if anyone wants to add senario heroes to their games. Thank you heavenfall and harpo ... not as advanced as yours, but its a start.
