Hey TC!
Do you know that the data of the accesability is located between the .dat file header, and sounds part?
It uses 32-bit floats.
ones (0000803f), zeros (00000000), and not used/disabled (FFFFFFFF).
Try out erasing some data.
I found out that the 1=accesable, and 0 = not, and FF?
Also, there is much more located in the graphic data, that you can think.
Try finding that out.

@AW

One question: the accesability of WHAT? There are about four to five different sections between the two areas you mentioned.

I think it's the first section below the header.
It determines, wether the terrain can be passed by a unit or not.
Try setting all zeros to ones. (please backup)

They are just header pointers / terrain headers and have nothing to do with the terrain setting IIRC. The attributes I was listing at the top thread matches only the normal database instead of my enhanced editor database.

Strange..
When i was resetting this data, seas became acessable, and strangely enough land was locked.

Are you not using the original dat?

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! How did you do this? I am really surprised that there's so many secret terrain! I managed to unlock 6 in total, but I never expected this...

I hope a stable large version of black tiles can be created through this. Finally, we can shape & form our own maps!!! Awesome+++

Yeah, I managed to unlock elevation 8 through my glitching too. I'm gonna check out all the templates asap. Scenario_t_c, you did it again.

*builds a statue of t_c and honors it*

The next thing we maybe could unlock is actual edited stats.

The "stable large version of black tiles" would be terrain 17.

Most so-called hidden terrains are just grass or desert terrains with other names and/or a few different attributes. Nevertheless, terrains 14 ~ 17 and 23 ~ 25 do provide some special features as mentioned above.

I am still finding the passable-water of which elevation can be changed.

I want that black terrain in Age of Kings.

Seriously s_t_c, aren't you worried about your exams?

Okay, I must say I begin to worry. Let's see, the first subject (English Oral) will be twelve days later......

PS: I have checked AoK data and all hidden terrains are already in AoKTS.

Awsomeness

Everyone! Do you remember when Scenario_t_c Day is?

I must now download every one of them.

Elevation 8 and terrain 17 templates are finished, first, due to their usefulness.

They are all bug-free, and work extremely well. The black terrain is very useful, well done t_c. I really like map 15 as well, the water is good for water on hills, too bad nothing can be placed on it. Also, when you render grass terrain on the water, the beachlines are beta beach terrain tiles, pretty cool. The bright colored desert looks nice too.

I can't really imagine what could still be unlocked after these templates and stats editing. If that's the case, I don't think we need to get worried, since we have unlimited possibilies. You're just lacking imagination if you can't put any of this to good use...

Also, t_c, is it possible to unlock building foundations/partially builded buildings in the editor? They could be of some good use, methinks.

"Building foundations/partially builded buildings" are the same objects as the buildings themselves, but displayed in different appearance and with different attribute.

Too bad. Hmm... Is there any way you could use a .AI/.CTY file to tell the cpu to build partially builded buildings (e.g. a villager builds a house for 75%, and then leaves it alone and goes off to do something else)?

@PHATFISH:
I'm only want to ask:
Did you send me a mail about game maker version 6.0?
I just received a dutch message.
maybe, it's just someone else.

I don't want to be the happy guy out here, but I reveive loads of fanmail.
also, I got a e-mail from somebody, that says, it has the ALPHA version...

this is really neat...we shud make a graphic mod that gives the darkterrains(except fog) a graphic

Quote:

I guess that snow is the first thing which come to our minds, however I fear it isn't possible: it appears that there is no transition between the 'new' and 'old' terrains thus, even with a new graphic for the dark tiles, the final result will be awfully blocky. A road texture could work better, but again it wouldn't have a good use, since the new terrains are unpassable

24 is passable
