Am I crazy or is this a new feature

[PatrickNeil]

I just noticed that there's a bar on the side of the select factions screen, so I can have all the factios be major faction. I could swear that I couldn't do this before the patch. Am I crazy?

no, you are not krazy,
that is the domain of lord krazy,

the scroll bar was added with the patch
:-)
previously the list would drift down over/under the portrait

To see the Scroll bar you must enable the use of more than 12 factions.

Then when getting to the choose faction screen you will see a scroll bar along the top Left hand side of the Faction list.

To try this, follow these steps.

1. Copy early.txt place in a new folder in the Total War Folder as name as "Orginals".

2. Open Early.txt in startpos Folder.

3. Ctrl+F type in Major and click search.

4. It will take you to the Almohads Major faction, this list is where the factions are set in the game, example. Which factions you as the player can play.

SetActiveFaction:: FN_ALMOHAD FT_MAJOR

5. Copy the Word "Major" ...... Warning BECAREFUL

6. Highlight the Word Minor in Aragonese within the list. Then Paste.
SetActiveFaction:: FN_ARAGONESE FT_MINOR

7. you will now see that the Aragonese have now become a major faction, SAVE FILE.

SetActiveFaction:: FN_ARAGONESE FT_MAJOR

8. Do the same to the Scililians and Hungarians.

9. SAVE FILE.

10. close and start game. choose early period, a list of factions will appear in which you can scroll down and select.

11. have fun.

12. Replace the Early.txt with the original in your save file originals in the medieval total War folder.
