I am working on a mod, and I figure, from reading posts here the best way is to overwrite the factions, making it relatively simple. I downloaded the Prussian Mod, and looked at the file. I changed everything that i found changed in the files, compared to original. I was changing Egyptians for ISrealite (I should try something different, because I need the Egyptians in the mod, but o wel, i can overwrite the English instead) This worked, as much as the Prusiian mod did. The Prussians, still have a few labels as the Germans. I want there to be nothing left that has the name English in it. Everything that says English, I want to saw Isrealite, or the plural form. ANy tips? It seems like I start to get somewhere then the game goes buggy on me. I will work on the flags later, those arent the main issue. Thanks in adavced.


o i forgot to mention, I am using MTW with the patch

The Prussian Mod was not done as a full mod only a small example that was requested by a JP, it was not meant to be a total mod teaching, if you look through the Loc files and do a search in each file for the faction/label you want to change. then do your edits 1 by 1 and check the result, this is a good way to learn what changes what, info in the labels [ ] cannot be changed you have to edit the content in { } only , unless you are adding new info/labels...LOS
