...with Glory achivements triggered. Is it possible?
So far I´m able to play the people of Novgorod since I changed the line ...minor... to ...major... BUT when I press the flashing GA-button the game crashes to desktop. Have I missed something? Thanks in advance

Welcome PseRamesses http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/wave.gif

You can play the Russians in a GA campaign. Unfortunately, the minor factions were hard-coded in such a way that when we mod them to become playable via a major faction their GA goals aren't available. You can still score points for conquest but you will not be able to access the GA screen. Every time I tried to click on the flashing icon I would immediately CTD, however, if you wait a couple of turns the flashing will stop and you can still play without any other problems.

I still only play GA though. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif

Alas, your question delves into modding and you don't want me helping you with modding. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif

We need to lobby CA to release a patch that will allow us to modify GA's, this is the second thread I've read today about the little buggers.

I wonder if they could do that without creating a problem with other hard coded components of the game. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif I think it would open up whole new realms of possiblities in the game if modders could insert their own GA, could even possibly rejuvenate some of the burned out modders. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif
