How do you make a new race witth buildings and stuf like that?
thanks to tha people that can help:D
That would be need a hella working over, so you know. You must use the buildings the game already has and set a tech tree of their own. Plus if you want'em to look different from the original (that the game possesses), it would undoubtably have to involve modeling the existing ones to custom ones.
For WC3-TFT mapping tools, if you don't have'em already, just clicky (http://www.warboards.org/showthread.php?t=9291). And welcome to WB's, btw. ;)

In mapping? Simple, you don't (to the best of my rookie mapping knowledge). ;)
Instead, try moddifying a existing one to fit your goal(s).

yea u can make a new tech tree but it takes a lot of time.just go into object editor and make a new custom unit for every unit u want to make be in the new races and then make the units build each other and so on.however if u r trying to make it so u can select the new race like in melee i wdont no if that is possible

You can, but its tricky.
1.Before you start anything you have to think of a name for your race, and a theme. Ex:you could have a theme of anything you want but it probably wont be a good race if you name it the demon race and it has a human archer,polar bear,forest troll, it might work if you like it but it wont be good if you want to make a custom unit that has anything to do with .demon.so if you change the name,attack projectile to somthing red the tinting to red maby it would look good try changing a water elementals tinting to all red it looks cool.
2.Create everything that you need for this race,for Ex: Custom units,heroes,buildings,upgrades,abilities,and special unique qualities for this race.
3.I would write down a tech tree of all the things you did.
4.I have an attachment. It's a simple techtree, once you get the hang of it you can do other things.
5.http://www.warboards.org/attachment.php?attachmentid=2221&stc=1
You seem to be pretty summing up the things needed for Custom Race making... But don't forget the Hero Aspect man... Have a look at Monolith map in your Maps\Frozen Throne\Scenario folder and your will learn a heap basics of custom race making

the tech tree is the races buidlig order like an undead crypt builds ghouls but if you wanted to you could make it build night elf archers or some custom unit you made up
