Default Battle for middle earth 2 skirmish maps science/powers HELP

Does anyone know how to edit the ini files or the maps so that when you play them in skirmish or multiplayer you get all the sciences/powers for good or evil ?, depending on what side you are.

I meant like so you can get all the powers like in the campaign part of the game is this the way to get them in skirmish/multiplayer too?

That won't work in multiplayer - it's all in the skirmish scripts; although I wouldn't know where to start looking >.<

I think thats exactly for multiplayer, why they are writing the tag "MP" at the end then its not for MP? Your answer is senseless in my opinion ^__^

No, your opponent will also need to have exactly the same ini files as you in order to play it. If you use a map.ini, then your opponent can automatically download the map and said map.ini or map skirmish scripts, without having to having to succumb any adverse effects of toying on other maps, or being prevented from playing normally without having to bugger about with files in the BfME directory.

The tag "MP" refers to that it's used in skirmish and multiplayer - but altering any of these, and online servers will deny you the ability to play against standard online players.


The point is - there's no ini editing involved using skirmish scripts, thus it can be applied happily to a single map, or using a map.ini to multiple maps.

I know all what you said but he said: "Does anyone know how to edit the ini files..." so my answer is exactly what the question asks about! I've played around with inis for a long time so please don't declare me a noob :/
