From SicilianVespers in the EH:

Before I begin working on this, has anyone tried to add the new buildings, etc... into the regular MTW campaigns to expand the early period into a pseudo "dark" period?

I have aleady copied the portraits over to the main game, but the new buildings would really give us a dark ages feel. Especially for the Pagan factions.

KekvitMod has for a few (Muster Field and Catholic Abbey, to name two). Click on Files at the top of the page, then Stats, then search for KekvitModv2 and the update KekvitModv2a

I dont know how far your moding skills go but Ive added buildings to my mod, like a Great temple and all did was:

1)ADD APPROPRITE DATA IN CRUSADERBUILDPROD13:

"0 TEMPLE_OF_LUND Temple Of Lund TROOP_PRODUCER 2000 4 {CHURCH} Temple Of Lund "POVERTY_STRICKEN(5), DESPERATE_DEFENCE(100), CATHOLIC_EXPANSIONIST(80), CATHOLIC_NAVAL_EXPANSIONIST(80), CATHOLIC_TRADER(80), CATHOLIC_CRUSADER_TRADER(200), CATHOLIC_EXPANSIONIST_CRUSADER(200), CATHOLIC_DEFENSIVE_CRUSADER(200), POPE(100), CATHOLIC_DEFENSIVE(80), CATHOLIC_ISOLATIONIST(80), ORTHODOX_DEFENSIVE(80), ORTHODOX_EXPANSIONIST(80), ORTHODOX_STAGNANT(80), MUSLIM_PEACEFUL(0), MUSLIM_EXPANSIONIST(0), MUSLIM_DEVOUT(0), BARBARIAN_RAIDER(0), REBELS(0), CLOSE_TO_SUPPORT_LIMIT(10), " NO CATHOLIC "UPGRADE_MORALE(3), {UPGRADE_VALOUR(3), UPGRADE_DISCIPLINE(3)" 2 "{FN_DANISH }""

2) ADD RELEVANT PICFILES IN TotalWar\campmap\Info_Pics\Buildings (dont forget to put one in thee colured folder.

3) ADD RELEVANT PICFILE IN TotalWar\campmap\review_panel\Buildings (DONT FORGET TO PUT ONE IN CATHOLIC FOLDER)

3)ADD IN DESCRIPTION FOR TEXT FILES
Go in Total War\Medieval - Total War\Loc\Eng

Descriptions: add description then add in the completed and destroyed section, like so:

["Temple Of Lund_desc"]
{"The Temple of Lund was originally built in Jerusalem 3000 years ago and housed the Ark of the Covenant and the Great Library. It was taken at the great war by the Dark Templars and brought to the mountains of Switzerland stone by stone along with the Ark itself Although the Temple is forbidden to enter, it is the centre of learning and training for the Dark Templars who rarely leave and houses the largest Library and relics in the world

["Temple Of Lund_Completed"] {"Temple of Lund Completed."}

["Temple Of Lund_Destroyed"] {"Temple of Lund Destroyed."}

AFTER THAT THE BUILDING SHOULD WORK http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif

You also have to add an entry in the names.txt file in the \loc\eng folder.

Using the above example:

["Temple of Lund"] {"Temple of Lund"}

I have managed to add the Warrior Hold, Stockade, and Fortified Village to the existing CASTLE entry, and the Pagan Shrines. I am going to work on adding Forest Clearing & Basic Farms next. The muster field, etc will follow.

Basically I want to create a DARKAGES_BUILD_PROD13.TXT I can declare in Darkages mods.

Thanks again...(I didn't know I was able to post in this forum)
