just to start an other map is an other option for it. Um... isn't it called something like "set next map" or something like that?

Up first, Calm down.
Then, try to explain what you want. Typing AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA won't help us a lot in understanding your problem.

1. About the Campaign Interface. In the Campaign Editor, did you give the first map a name, and did you select it to be viewable from the start? If you didn't, it won't work.

2. I don't think that in the map you can load a game cache file using last create game cache? Doesn't it have to be set as a variable or something...

OK that last post was very confusing but I think I may know what your problem is - I was extremely confused about campaigns until I discovered this:

In the campaign editor, there are tabs along the top of the big white area where your map tree is displayed. One of them is "Loading Screen." Go to that tab and you'll see another list - this one is a list of buttons that will appear on your Campaign's main level selection screen. Because there are no buttons created yet, the list is blank. Right click on it, select "Add Button" and make a button for your starting map. Be sure to check "Visible (first time campaign is loaded)." After that, if you're going to want buttons for your other maps, create them too. If you make a button NOT "visible (first time campaign is loaded)" you can later make it visible using the "Game - Show/Hide Custom Campaign Button" action.

Good luck!

I don't think it's your english, I think it's your formatting. Try to make separations between different topics, with line breaks - it's easier to process smaller chunks of information.

Also, when getting into something you've never tried to tackle before, it's best to focus on just one thing at a time. SO:

First off, let's try to get your campaign loading screen to have a button that will start your first map. Without that, you can't do anything else! What happens as of now when you open your campaign in the game? Is there a button at all? If so, what happens when you click that button?

Please use ponctuation.

If I understood correctly...That's probably because you didn't set a map that the button is to load when clicked?

I attached a picture of what it should look like in the CE if you did it correctly.

Ok, here's a picture of what the Campaign Editor should show if you created, linked it to a map and added the button correctly.

PS: Change the 'Visible' area to Yes for the button to be visible.

Its work :D but now second... Keep stats and item between the 2 map -_- , first, I can't make a variable unit = (the hero) , cause if i make it i will be not able to put it in the game cache save = (variable)

1- The game cache varaible is obligate to be a deployment game cache variable, so how can I do this game cache is the hero who enter in the victory region?



(said it if i forget ponctuation :////

sry if that sentence is to confusing :

so how can I do this game cache is the hero who enter in the victory region?




simplify : how can I make the variable : game cache = The Hero who enter in the victory region (who win..)

I was currently wondering, if it was at all posssible to make an online campaign. By so, i mean not just a consecutive bunch of maps wich a group of people would play. But rather one mother map that links to other smaller maps. Where one person could say, enter a city or something (technically leaving the level) and then return to that same map with all the people still there. Or 2 people entering the city (again leaving the level and changing maps) and being able to enter the same level (where both players could interact). Yeah... so any ideas? Or is it a hoplessly impossible idea that will never work?
