[edited by DrQube 01/04/15]
Hello, just a quick note, this HTML has been
optimised for Internet Explorer and CSS'able browsers... nothing too fancy. I
hope it's helpful. back to the original text...
I've also added (HTML 1.01) a how to use this document...
Revision
List [HTML Version]
v1.02 - Syncronisation release (see MorQuis notes for 1.04 below), with new
disclaimer, and quick and dirty mapping guide, plus some paramters names have
been stadardised to increase enjoyment. ("Facing" parameters are now all refered
to as "Rotation")
v1.01 - Formatting Update to make command reference clearer
and also a "How to use this document" guide.
v1. 00 - The original based on
1.02 of Morquis document.
[edited by Solstice 01/04/18]
Revision List
v1.00 - The original master document.
v1.01 -
Mostly grammatical changes, some small updates.
v1.02 - Updates to the
original document include the addition of many lines not originally included in
1.00. Lots of placeholder lines still, but we'll get to 'em eventually. More
testing resulted in several of the tables being changed.
v1.03 - Updates to
1.02 include Environment lines, some unknown variables were fixed, and some more
formatting of the actual document was done. Hyperlinks have been added, so you
won't have to scroll as much to get around the document.
v1.04 - All
placeholders have now been filled in. Most unknowns have been solved.
Message from MorQuis
Ok, first I want to say hi to all the new
users of this document. The response I have been getting from all of you is
amazing, and it's making my long hours seem worth it.
I have been through all the map files and I am confident that we have all the commands in here now. The climate is still blank due to the fact that it seems no one can figure it out. I thought I had it once, but I was wrong. :P
Until then, enjoy all the new commands I have put in here, and I hope you send me some maps you have made using this info.
If there are any errors, or things I missed, please email me ASAP so I can get them corrected quickly.
Enjoy!
Message from Solstice
Woot? Or maybe not. What the hell is a woot,
anyway?
After two weeks of painstaking testing, MorQuis has almost all of the lines figured out and ready for you to use in your own maps. The next revision of this document will most likely be mostly cosmetic, with a few updates if we find anything new. So my work is finished for a while.
Maybe some of you just haven't figured out who this crazy Solstice guy is. I know MorQuis gets a heck of a lot more email than I do. That's understandable, considering this whole crazy project is his brain-child (errr...), and since he's a far more visible presence on the boards. He also is the webmaster of The Gods' Playground. Dammit, yeah, he does a lot more stuff than me. So forget I said anything.
If on some crazy whim, you decide to not email MorQuis, you can email me with mapping questions, questions about the website, hell, I'll do my best to answer any questions of any topic you have! Just email me! Me! Me! Me!*
*Note from MorQuis: I told him to take his medication, but he's raving again. But you can email him. If nothing else, it'll be amusing.
As a quick guide for the new user, I've added this little overview, it's to help you understand the way I've formatted the command reference, it's quite simple .. you'll see .. and I've tried to make it as intuitive as possible (he says !) but for the record here's how it all goes... if you need more help... please... don't email me... and consider doing something else with your time... perhaps a little cognative ability test... or ... hmmm .. maybe buy some lego, build a thought forming mechanism ... (end of life guidance.) chances are you won't even read this... to the 2% who do... move along nothing to see here.
Parameter1
info for the parameter1
"Parameter2"
info for the parameter2
(note... any parameters which are listed in quotes must have quotes in the
script file)
Parameter3*
info for the parameter3
*Call-outs may appear sometimes when a command or parameter has a bit of wierdness about it...
# | ParameterName | Description |
0 | VALUE | Description goes here |
1 | VALUE | Description goes here |
2 | VALUE | Description goes here |
SOMETIMES THERE WILL BE A NOTE...
MAKE SURE YOU READ 'EM (go on.. you be good.) | ||
*** OR SOMETIMES PERISH THE
THOUGHT THERE WILL BE A WARNING...(brrr!)
*** |
note... there is no command called COMMAND_NAME (ok?) and there will often be more than three parameters this is an example... (also for those that need thing over-explaining, I'm being facetious ... and yes I'm slapping myself in the face, quite hard. I thank you.)
So there you have it... if you don't know what a parameter is? click for a definition...
That is all.
Ok, a few people have mailed me about "where do I put these commands?". It's
not really my mission to to have people start mailing me (specifically) with
"how do I do this" mapping questions, but I can answer this one here so off we
go. (MorQuis might be more helpful in most cases...)
If you look in your
Black&White install directory (default C:\Program Files\Lionhead Studios
Ltd\Black & White\) you will find a directory in there called scripts, this
contains all the map scripts which are simple .txt files... and if you don't
know what a .txt file is... look... STOP what you are doing... you're in too
deep...
No one in this mapping spec's project will accept any responsibility for you gaff'ing up your Black & White installation this is all "at your own risk" stuff.. but you can make a copy of one of the scripts in the "playgrounds" folder and this would become a new skirmish map... what this guide doesn't do is tell you how to edit .LND files they are the Landscapes... this doc simply let's you change the features that are on the landscape...
And as a word of advice, I'd make sure you study all the existing scripts before you begin trying to make your own maps and also experiment by making minor changes to the exisiting maps (work on a copy!)
Oh and the final word.... Visit the God's Playground see contacts below... there's lot's of help there...

(00110010) you put all those together to get 11001000111111110000000000110010.
This is signed though and the leftmost bit is the sign bit so you change that
bit to a zero and minus the result. So the final answer is -1224671282. You can
use windows calculator in scientific mode to change between decimal and binary.
And if you understand that, congrats! You're far smarter than Solstice. If you
can't, MorQuis has a nifty program on his website that allows you to figure this
out far easier. (in the TUTORIALS section)
Size
Increases or decreases the size.
Stretch
Causes the mist to become more of an
oval shape (note: This causes the mist to act like a sprite. It will always be
the same direction no matter which way you look at it).
Example:
CREATE_MIST("3159.89,1934.44", 0.000000, 756475938, 2.29,
1.0)
Creates a ball of mist with a size of 2.29 at the location
"x,y".

*TheGiant Ape is a bit odd. It
automatically dies at the start of the map and continues in a die,
resurrect, die, resurrect loop until the map ends. I would recommend
not using this creature. | |
CRASHALERT! - Do not use 18.
Since we were too lazy to check out any value after that, the potential
for other 'Giant' creatures such as 17 exists. If this is the case, please
email us and set us straight, and we'll update this with further testing.

Solstice thanx:
MorQuis for refusing to allow me to do
anything other than update this document... wait, that's not a good thing! You
don't get any thanks from me, you bastard!,
Envie for allowing us the
use of her forum,
DrQube for his excellent html version of
Bwmap.doc,
and all the guys over at Lionhead for making one hell of a wicked
game. Keep up the excellent work!
Feel free to pass this document to whoever wants it. If you find any errors, please contact us and let us know. Any errors are all MorQuis' fault. Really. They have nothing to do with me.

Answers? What answers? I don't have a clue what you're talking about!

*DISCLAIMER*
MorQuis did not write portions of this document, so he isn't
responsible for all of the stupid mistakes or inconsistencies within. So
don't laugh at him, as it makes him feel small and silly.
NeitherMorQuis nor
Solstice is in any way affiliated with LionHead Studios, though they'd like to
be. MorQuis only allows Solstice to work on this provided he's on his
medication, but everyone makes the occasional error. So he isn't responsible for
anything Solstice says. Just ignore him, and eventually he goes away.
Oh! I have a bit down here, but if your hand is tired and you can't scroll that far, my email is dr@mentalbloc.com
... based in LionHead stomping ground Surrey... sat on a hill (the Hogs Back) doing nice things.
Says: "I've Nuthin' to do with soltice or MorQuis... But, I just really wanted a quick hyperlinked version...and I got a bit carried away...!"
High praise to LionHead: MorQuis & Solstice pretty much say what I and I expect most people who play Black&White think... it's stunning game.
Thanks go to planetblackandwhite for being there & Darkyoda for the L3D
viewer (nice).
oh and ... of course never let it be said there's a wrong time to pimp
yourself... so ...
excuse me LionHead *cough*.. I'm just down the road
... and, well I'm one hell of a talent going to waste...!
email me... my resume
is awesome (blush).
if you have a problem and no one else will help,
maybe you can call DrQube.. (I'll scratch my head and say ...: "phooo, it'll
cost ya!")
Ryuujin's and PlonkerFishes couple of words
Ok, basically its like this. Ryuujin liked the mapping specs, found the weather variables out as far as he could. I found out he posted them on the BWCenter forums. So, Plonky decided to add them to the mapping script, which is where we are now. To all other people who worked on this document: if you don't like us doing this, sorry, but we thought you had lost interest in continuing with the mapping script.
