A previous version of this mod contained balance changes. These changes have been incorporated in HD patch 5.8 by Forgotten Empires and are now included in WololoKingdoms. For reference these changes included:
  • Increasing the cost of towers by 25 wood (from 25 to 50)
  • Korean fortification bonus does not affect towers
  • Increasing the cost of Arambai and Elite Arambai by 30 wood (from 50 to 80)
  • Increasing the cost of Karambit Warriors and Elite Karambit Warriors by 5 food and 5 gold (from 25 food 10 gold to 30 food 15 gold)
  • Increasing the cost of Couriers (Inca unique armor tech) to 600 food and 600 gold (from 400 food and 200 gold)
**Terrain Differences:The Kilimanjaro and Serengeti maps are "ZR" maps.Age of Empires 2 is hard coded to use 42 terrains.In order to use some of the terrains from the HD expansions, the maps use the UserPatch 1.5 feature of creating a "zipped random map".This allows us to replace a terrain with another terrain, allowing for more terrain textures to be used.For example, the map Kilimanjaro replaces the "rock" terrain with a "quicksand" terrain.However, when we combine maps into a map pack, we end up with conflicts between different maps that use the same terrain.The Gorge map uses the rock terrain as the walls of a gorge.If we replace the rock terrain with quicksand, then the terrain shows up correctly in Kilimanjaro, but incorrectly in Gorge (as the walls of the gorge now consists of quicksand instead of rocks).There are only two "non-buildable land" terrains: rocks and non-sailable ice.We could substitute the ice terrain for the quicksand texture, but the borders of the terrain would still look incorrect, as they use the ice blending instead of normal terrain blending.We cannot selectively replace terrains in certain maps but not others; we can replace rock with quicksand in all maps, or we can leave the terrain as rocks in all maps.The ability to include multiple terrain substitutions for map pack is currently not supported in the UserPatch due to file transfer security concerns.The map pack consists of the 7 maps from the region, but Kilimanjaro and Serengeti do not contain the replacement terrains.
