| Hi
Is there any way to test/play a scripted map without having to computers? Launching two instances of Kingdoms don't work for me and you can't play with scripts enabled againts just bots in singelplayer. | |

| Hey, rammstein! I don't know if there is a metod to test/play scripted maps in singleplayer. It also doesn't have the option "Use map script". Cavedog didn't make TA:K's script playable in singleplayer, as you can see, in .gui files (interface visuals) there is a line in battlemenumulti.gui, with the option "Use map script": - Spoiler:

and this line doesn't appear in battlemenusingle.gui.. Hope it was useful! ^^ | |

| You don't happen to know if there existst some documentation for TAK gui files, I found some for TA but as far as I can see they are somewhat different. | |

| Yeah, I have it. ^^ I didn't have patience to learn all about this yet... But if you are interested: http://visualta.tauniverse.com/Downloads/TAK_GUI.txt And yes, that's boring, lot's of numbers and codes... hehe, but Cavedog didn't make us tools to do it easier. So, we need to discover all. ;/ There are much more about TA:K's unknown files in this site: http://visualta.tauniverse.com/HTML/Formats.html (the most files are for TA, but some are the same thing) ^^ I knew that it would be useful one day for someone! hehe | |

| Dear Ramstein, the best way is to test the map online with somebody else. So, if you need to test a scripted map here I am! Just tell me your timezone and I can do my best to test maps with you at weekends! | |

| I managed to make a gui file which enables you to start a lan game even if you are the only human player. Now there is a new button next to the start button which you can use to start the game with just one human player and bots, might be usefull when testing scripted maps. Just use the hpi file with tak switcher. Download: https://skydrive.live.com/redir?resid=1B247A6D07FD0DE2!133 @ARTHAN Glad that you want to test scripted maps, when/if I get one somewhat finished I would happily play it with you. | |

| Haha man, you are God! ^^
Very nice work, anyways, 2v2 scripts will sucks with AI teams, lol! But if it is just for testing scripts maps... That's enough. And, now we can make 1v1 scripts to play "singleplayer", and have lots of fun. ;D
I really liked that! Nice work! ^^ | |

| I have played almost every script Vs the AI and I have to admit I rarely had such a fun time fighting the AI in TAK! Missions like Cairbay Coast Landing, Increasing Strength and some others are plain awesome, even when you don't face a human opponent! | |

Yep, that's it! However, keep in mind that you have to go to "play against an opponent" in the main menu section (the one with the orange knight), to 'host' a game, to choose race/map/script/opponents and then to press "Force Start", which is a golden sword icon right next to the grey/disabled one. Have fun! | |
