Is there any way to increase the amount of gold Peons, Peasants, Wisps, and Acolytes extract from gold mines? The default is 10.

There is, yes. Look at Warcraft 2.3 (or is it 3.2?) Anyways, it's a mod for war3 that makes the game run more like war2. The creator hangs around here, I don't know his name though.

I can't just extract a file, change a number, then add it to a map?

I have no idea how he did it, I haven't seen the file he used or since it isn't important to the Dark Crescent Mod I just haven't noticed it. You could maybe just change 1 file, or 20 files. Couldn't tell you exactly. And it's 2:30 AM right now and I don't feel like looking for myself right now, also tomorrow I am busy. Maybe Thursday if you don't have an answer I will take a look.

LOL edit the goldmine ability in abilitydata.slk, use a spell editor like redskulls.

... No offense, but you all are wrong. There is an ability called LUMBER and GOLD Harvesting Ability, this tell the peasants and peons to harvest the SET amount of Wood/Gold. Sigh... Go look more in-depth next time.

Good luck buddy. This is sort of hard to do and requires a small hack for the undead. Like the above states, you want to edit the carying capasity of gold in the "harvest gold and lubmer" ability for the humans and orc. And you want to edit the gold interval of the "entangled gold mine" ability for the night elf. BUT BUT BUT BUT BUT, if you look at the haunted gold mine unit, it lists an ability called "Haunted gold mine ability" and if you go to the abilities tab it is no where to be found. SOoooooooo. In order to accomplish what you want you have to export a file and edit it so that the "haunted gold mine" ability shows in the World editor. Basicly you open this file with note pad and change a 0 to a 1 for the display in world editor line of text for this abilty. There is a thread on this topic that i started. but i cant seem to find it now. I wonder if it got purged in the migration to the new server... Anyway, that is what you have to deal with.

Hey Hey, I found that post i made. The instructions for hacking the haunted gold mine are at the bottom of the post.
