Adding new faction (MTW)

[lysarin]

This is what I want to do:

1) Create Sweden as a playable faction in the early and high period. (Possible overwrite the danish if its not possible to create a new faction.)

2) They should start with only one province (Sweden).

3) Give the generals and kings swedish names.

4) Perhaps give them a new colour and/or banners.

5) I have Viking Invasion installed if it should matter.

The problem is... I don't know anything about modding MTW Can anyone help me with this?
Thanks...

you can add new factions in MTW without overwriting new ones. If you need, then PM someone who knows about modding (I hardly know anything.) When you reach Senior Member, then you can post in the alchemist lab and get more replies for your question, but that's quite a task you have chosen http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/wave.gif

by the way, welcome, and happy new year http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/bigthumb.gif http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/wave.gif http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/cheers.gif

look for a guy named Lord of Storms next time you're on, then send him a private message, he knows a lot about modding

1 other thing I would like to mention, if you like the Swedes you might llike to try our Napoleonic Total War Mod for VI, The Swedes are a major faction, with faction specific units of the period,Like the
SkaraborgsRegimetet
KongligMajestaetsLifgardeTillHaest
LaettaDragoner
HästJägareCorps
LivGrenadierOfTheLifeBrigade
Just to name a few, you can look in the Alchemist section of the Dungeon in the Nap Mod thread laste pages for links to downloads, and our own NTW support forums..LOS
