Yeah, this is for a champion.  Guess I should've specified that first.

YES.  This is *exactly* what I was looking for.  Thank you very much.

Where do you find the "Techs" in the Xml folders.  Im looking at adding some in, but the only folder I found so far(Core Techs) just shows the main 3.  Im also wanting to see how they are connected, to see if its possible then to have techs put between them, say like Leatherworking-Studded Leather-Blacksmithing.  I remember doing things like this in GC, but cant seem to figure out where the XML is at to do this.

Also, is it possible to design techs thats can only be researched when you have certain items, say like spider silk or wolf pets, which can then lead to you making those items if you have researched them and have the mats for them?

Thanks!

Thanks Parrott!!

there are several files with all the equipment listed in them, the ones you want to look through are coreitems.xml and corearmor.xml, commonly found in the steam/steamapps/common/fe legendary heroes/data/English directory

depending on where you installed it.

if your going to mod, you should explore all these files before changing anything

Also, what is the easiest way to test leveling up a champion?

Experience increases or is there a leveling up spell i can cast repetitively?

Okay, I've been trying to figure this one out on my own, but no luck yet...  Is there a way to have a tech give the player another tech on completion?

Two things I have tried:

a.) make the second tech cost 0 (and have the first as a prereq) - this almost works, except that you have to actually select the second tech and end turn before you get it.  I want the tech to be given for free, immediately.

b.) Using a gamemodifier with "GiveTech"

<GameModifier>

<!-- This doesn't work... -->
<ModType>Player</ModType>
<Attribute>GiveTech</Attribute>
<StrVal>Civics</StrVal>
<Provides>It gives you Civics for free...</Provides>
<Value>100</Value>

</GameModifier>

I think that the GameModifier is the way to go, but I just don't know the correct syntax (assuming that there is a syntax that would work).

The main reason I want to do it is that I plan to have like a dozen weapons unlocked by a particular tech (actually the weapons will require this tech, plus one another), and a) I don't want to gum up the tech description to the point that it's useless, and b.) the game doesn't display multiple tech requirements great (for example, I made Wood Shield require Leatherworking and Civics, to test...  both the Civics description and the Leatherworking description say that they unlock Wood Shields (I would think it should say something like "Wood Shield (req. Civics)").

So I might have a tech called "Elemental Enchantments" which gives you the techs Cold Enchantments, Lightning Enchantments, and Fire Enchantments.  And then have Burning Axe be a weapon that requires "Axes" and "Fire Enchantments".

It could be done without giving the player free placeholder techs, but it'd be cleaner if I could...

Doh, figured it out on the next thing I tried after posting...  oops.  Turns out the correct attribute is "UnlockTech".  I guessed "GiveTech" based on "GiveItem" being used in a lot of GameModifiers in the quest xml, but those GameModifiers seem to have a totally different structure.  "Unlock" to me means that it would make the tech available rather than necessarily giving you the tech, but hey, it works!

Now the issue I have is this:

TestTech1 provides you with Lightning Enchantment, Fire Enchantment, and Cold Enchantment.  So when your "YOU GAINED A TECH" screen pops up, it only shows the tech screen for Cold Enchantment, with no indication that you finished researching TestTech1.  So, I wonder if there's a way to hide those techs from popping up.  I'll try it out, but if anyone already knows how to do that, let me know...  Just thought I'd post here that I figured out the problem above.

I should probably get back to real work though - working from home today and decided to spend my lunch time on modding, but that's probably all the time I should spend on it for now...

I also have a question. I've created a mod and uploaded it to nexus, and it includes a champion unit that gets bigger with each level (UnitStat_TacticalScaleMultiplier), i've done this using:

<GameModifier>
<ModType>Unit</ModType>
<Attribute>AdjustUnitStat</Attribute>
<StrVal>UnitStat_TacticalScaleMultiplier</StrVal>
<Value>0.04</Value>
<PerLevel>1</PerLevel>
</GameModifier>

My question, is how would I get this to no longer execute when the unit reaches a certain level? So that it doesn't get TOO big

looking at the Black Widow you can see the following 

<SelectedAbilityBonusOption>TangledWeb</SelectedAbilityBonusOption>
<SelectedAbilityBonusOption>Venomous1</SelectedAbilityBonusOption>
<SelectedAbilityBonusOption>Tough</SelectedAbilityBonusOption>
<SelectedAbilityBonusOption>Spell_Beguile</SelectedAbilityBonusOption>

The ability tough gives the target an extra 3 hp/lv, adding to the base 2 hp/lv that all units get (i think) that is 50hp at lv 10. That would account for most of the error. if that is wrong you can see exactly what is contributing to the total health by going to the unit stat screen (clicking on the unit portrait in the strategic view) and hovering over the hp amount. the games calc should show everything that is happening!

hope that helped! let me know if that was it lol

Is there anyway to remove spells from a champion?

Basically I'm wanting to remove the spell the champion cast after he casts it... (Single cast)

Currently i'm just setting the Cooldown to 4000.

I wanted to remove it from my spell book completely.  As it can only be cast once per champion.

So once the spell was cast i would want to LockSpell.  I was hoping i could Lock it as we can UnlockSpell.  

But I dont think we can.
