Blacksmith in the Dark Age.

That’s the goal I want to achieve with the Advanced Genie Editor and I can’t. I’ve seen how to do any other changes and I’ve verified that they actually work, but changing a building from one age to another is difficult for me.

Does anyone know how many parts of the code I have to change to achieve this?

I’m getting that what you are trying to achieve is both make the Blacksmith available in the Dark Age AND make it change it’s graphics from Dark Age to Feudal Age. Right? But in AGE, you can see that unit 103 gets upgraded to unit 105 already, from Dark Age to Feudal Age.Wouldn’t you just need to change it’s dying and standing graphics?

I just want it to be possible to build in the Dark Age instead of the Feudal Age. Nothing else, the rest remains unchanged.

Note: I just got it. If anyone else wants to do it, go to the “Techs” tab and “select 281 - Blacksmith (make-avail)”, then change “Required Techs” to 104 - Dark Age. Works perfectly. Thanks anyway for your interest in helping.

Great to hear that!
BTW, in case you didn’t know, you can also do it in individual scenarios using triggers.
