gold to minerals???

Does anyone know if its possible to change the mine so that you could mine say minerals instead of gold. No matter what I try it still says gold left in game. Also the gold mine ability maybe if it was possible to change it so that said something other than gold it might work. As far as I can figure the .exe must determine all that so its not possible, but if it is please tell me.:ggani:

Open WorldEditStrings.txt (war3.mpq) and search for
WESTRING_GOLDAMOUNT,
WESTRING_PSTATE_GOLD,
WESTRING_PSTATE_UPKEEPGOLD, WESTRING_PSTATE_GOLDGATHERED, WESTRING_UNITORDERNOTARG_AUTOHARVESTGOLD, WESTRING_UEVAL_UGOL,
WESTRING_UEVAL_IGOL;
and try to alternate the string values. Dunno if it works.

Theres also CommandStrings.txt wich contains the nogold string. There are a hell of other strings wich would be needed to change (e.g. MiscData.txt)

So good luck

If it doesnt help at all, it must be embeded in the game.dll.

Thanks, I'd looked at them a bit, I'll do some more looking, but it may not be possible to change everything, although it would be even cooler if I could just add another resource type.
Anyway thanks again for trying to help.

nvm. Im going to search the game.dll anyway, trying to disassemble it.

nononononoononono its under advanced --> game interface

all of the gold strings will be in there, I did the same thing but i changed lumber to gems, just change everything that says gold to minerals, its real easy. you can also change the gold pic and everything
