I have enable all the factions in my game, for example.

I have the swiss as the Romanians, and the people of novograd as the Lithiunians.


Now what I haven't done is change the names,
eg:
Swiss to Romanian
Novograd to Lithuanian.

What i need to know before going any further, is there any adverse affects on the game, of changing these names?
Is there any files where the names should remain the oringinal names?

Thank you

There's no effects fenir, other than them having the correct names as you want them to be, so change the name of Novgorod to Lithuania and they'll be known as Lithuania etc.

all the strings can be changed as far as I know
it's just the labels that are hardcoded.

Only change them in names.txt, everywhere else, like in the startpos files, they're references to those names.

Also make sure that faction leader is in the right province. As an example, Lithuanian leader in Lithuania not Novgorod.

is there any way to add your own pieces and kingdoms rather than replacing?does the game have a limit to how many factions there are?
