Forum: STW Modification

I own a Shogun:Warlords Edition. Is there any way to remove units? I don´t like the Kensai f.e. - these giants feel unhistorical and don´t appeal to my taste. I have read they have only be introduced in the MI-expansion. So a second question is what other units have been added by introducing...

Geishas didn't "exist" before the 17th century! Is it possible to remove them from the game somehow (both "physically" and in text)?

I prefer to play with the unit sizes at maximum, but I don't like that it takes two turns to produce them. Is there any way to change the production time from two turns to one?

I am making a shogun mod for EUIII. I was trying to find where the rebel names and mons were posted.

I recently was looking through the files for shogun, and was wondering if there is a way to mod it, change attributes for units. alter the honour etc. also I saw some things in there that I never saw in the game, such as a message saying you have a daughter, and a fat_vai adviser or something...

I want to know, if i'm using a 1.02 patch, and then changed, as an example, heavy cavalry 60 to 40 unit in troop stats, will this cause them to become weaker or it just for a cosmetic reason in-game. :help:

Can someone give an answer to one or both of these questions. 1. How can I increase the number of men in one unit? In the options I have set the unit size to the official maximum allowed, but I am hoping there might be a way to increase this even further? 2. How do I increase maximum number...

Is there a file I can edit so every single unit is not a genral. I like to make so only certain units would be made a genral. HAPPY NEW YEAR to all.

after modding troopstats i find no changes in game to things i changed, i dont use desktop shortcut as it doesnt work and play the game by going on all programs and finding shogun manually, if the changes only work through shortcut link then please tell me what my shortcut should say, or why my...

As the title says, I'd like to modify the game in order to have the ability to train the Ashigaru Crossbowmen in any campaign. Like, in the 'starting at 1530' campaign. I know nothing about modding, but for me it seems that something like this should be easy, or at least, possible. Is there...

:help: I bought a "Gold Version" of the game, must be the Warlords Edition. I installed it, language english and wanted to run the patch (1.02 beta, found it around here). It works, essentially, and there are some changes (noticeable only that a date was added to the saved games), but it still...

Wondering if any of you folks where I can find a recruitment viewer for STW units. I've searched and searched and I can't seem to find one anywhere. :help:

Hello ! I'm trying to locate the "moving background" from the Shogun Total War menu, but couldn't find it until now... :sweatdrop: Do you know where I can find that file or is it somehow "hardcoded" in the files ? As I'm really skilled in english :beam: , here is a pic from what I'm looking...

Hey guys (and girls, I hope :P), I'm really glad to find this place...I waa shogun fan when it first came out--not so much of medieval, but let's not get into that. ~;) Anyways, does anyone know if there's a patch or something that can help me play as ronin in the game? I know there's a cheat...

I installed STW, patched it and when I try to load a battle I get the error: DDERR_InvalidPixelFormat (88760091). How can I fix this, could the problem be my video card? I have a S3 ViRGE GX2 with the latest drivers. Thanks.

I'm playing the Warlord Edition of STW and am hoping that it would be a simple matter to change the strategy map to display the provincial names in Japanese and that the map draws upon a file listing these names that I can go into and replace with their respective Japanese counterparts. Does the...

Hello there, I started playing Shogun once more after longer break and my small dilemma returned . Is there any file which contains list of generals for each clan and if there is such file, can it be changed (edited) ??

Hello, I recently bought S: TW and I was very excited about playing. The installation and all went well. I first played the tutorials in which the game occasionally would crash. Then I went on with the single player campaign. In the single player campaign, when I enter the throne room, at first...

Hello, Im just new to this site so thought I'd say hi. I have a problem though- i can take over most of Japan in a reasonable period of time, but i keep being cut down by a lack of heirs. on my current save i have 3/4 of Japan but no heir! anyone know of a mod to have more or something? ...

Hi I bought recently Total War: Eras. I have huge problems with running Shogun. In some point of game, when the map is displayed Windows alert box shows up saying that I’m running debugger (and there is something about WinICE/SoftICE) If it’s because I’m working with Win XP? Could you help me,...

Hi all! I was wondering if it would be possible to replace the original Kensai sprite (I mean, of course, the one used in the battlefield screen) with the normal No-Dachi one (I don't like it very much and it seems a bit unnatural to me to see such a giant walking around...). I'm almost sure...

Okay, Shogun Total War Warlords Edition crashes everytime when i'm in game. I'll play a few turns or two, then it just exits out of the game, and gives me an error message, then thats it. It also dosent play any videos at all, everytime it tries to it just does the same thing and crashes on me lol....

Hello everyone, im new to this forum site and amazed how this game is still going! woot!. Well anyways, I used the search button to find the words "Meiji mod" or just "Meiji" to find if there is a Meiji era mod. Seems there isn't, is there anyway we can mod it to have a campaign against the Meiji...

What extra scenarios are still around for Shogun MI? I had one await ago, 1570, but I cant find it anymore.

greetings

:help: If anyone knows of a multiplayer strategic map mod for Shogun Total War or is interested in helping develop one please contact me at jrgoodrick@gmail.com I am a long time devoted Shogun fan and feel that the game is incomplete because the original designers left out a mulitplayer...

Hi all! I'm a great fan of Shogun since its first version (2000). After 2 years, I've bought the Warlord Edition but noticed that there seems to be something weird with the arrival of foreign traders (Portuguese and Dutch: the Portuguese keep docking at my ports (as at other clans') many and...

Shogun Gold Edition has had the option to play online removed from its multiplayer menu. You can play on LAN and thats it. This isn't that surprising since there is no "official" server anymore. But it means I can't use the fakeserver. Does anyone have any ideas?? Multiplayer is why I wanted the...

I have the game and want to mod it. Are there any good mods?
