Hello all,

I am trying to finish setting up the server but there are some things i want to tweak and i was hoping someone could tell me the correct way to do this.

1. Remove races:  IE there are currently like 20 races. Lets say i only want Orc, NE, Human, and Undead.  How can i accomplish this properly? do i have to do something in source recompile and reupload all the files? can i just change a config file and restart the server?

2.  Edit races:  I would like to increase the invis a human gets or the speed an undead gets.    Same question as above, what is proper technique for this?

3. Edit items: Same as above.

Any help is much appreciated!

There are a couple of ways to remove races:

1) Delete the appropriate .smx file from your server.  No recompiling needed, just delete the file.
2) You can set the flags for the races you don't want to "hidden"  eg:

Code:
war3 undead_flags "hidden"
war3 luna_flags "hidden"

Replace the race name for the ones you don't want, and place them in your war3source.cfg file.

To do this you will need to change the individual .sp files, then recompile them and replace the old .smx files on your server.  There are appropriate variables in each race.

3. Edit items: Same as above.

To remove items, easiest is to use the hidden flags again, eg:

Code:
war3 helm_itemflags "hidden"

You can change the cost of an item with

Code:
war3 helm_cost "15"

You use any text editor to modify the files.  I personally am using notepad++ at the moment, but you could use whatever.

You will need to recompile the file you edit afterwards.  There's a guide to compiling race files here:
