This game was made to be moded. Anything is possible with a little imagination and inspiration. Thanks for opening up the saharan frontier. Makes medieval world a better place for all of us. Maybe Lord Krazy will put some chaka zulu warriors in there for us, hint hint...

I wondered when someone would bother to do that (I think most/all campmap modders have looked at that, and thought...'maybe I'll do it one day'.

good job someone finally has http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif

What units do they have ? Any special or unique troop types ?

Hey Congratulations man you licked it I was trying to activate Africa for my WotR campaign but the game kept hanging on me and so I thought it was more trouble than it was worth. Would you mind very much if I borrowed the relevant data? I'll give you credit for discovering the 'way to the Dark Continent' of course.

They have no unique troops, but if you wanted, you could open up "crusader_unit_prod11.txt" and search for "Sahara", bringing up SaharanCavalry, then you can scroll over to the first instance of "LIBYA" and change that to "AFRICA", and then toward the end of the line, where it says "MOROCCO, ALGERIA, TUNISIA, LIBYA, EGYPT, SINAI, ARABIA", that could be changed to "MOROCCO, ALGERIA, TUNISIA, LIBYA, EGYPT, SINAI, ARABIA, AFRICA", which will allow Saharan Cavalry to be built in Africa.

That file was originally put up here for someone making a mod that wanted to use it. I forget the reasons, but sure. Just search the file for "Africa" and copy the relivant lines, replacing ones that need to be replaced, like the "SetNeighbors" for Morocco, Algeria, Tunsia, etc.
