Ok,

I was Playing NTW. for MTW VI.

I built up a huge empire as the english,
And was basically making england ierland wales and scotland very secure.
With ring walls and castle keeps and whet have you.

my provinces on the outskirts of my kingdom, streched up to turkey. and i decided to change the way i played.

I disbanded most of my men at the front line,
Leaving 1unit of 1 men in each of my provinces and Very high tax,
"so the rebels would come"
the rebelion came,
And i destroyed all the buildings i had in that province,
Then let my man die,

The aim being to leave a huge amount of rebels covering most of the map whilst i fell back to my now Super protected shores.

And suddenly I get,
"29 turns remaining"

How do i stop the campaign ending I wanna play forever :)
Ive already completed the game A few times,
Never seen this message before.

Help would be good :)

Yea...the NTW campaign is set for 130 years or something like that, so you basically need to keep an aggressive approach to conquer the entire map. If you start with a smaller nation like the Dutch it is really difficult, since Napoleon invades on the first turn.

If you want you prolly can extend the end date on your own, but the Lords prolly won't be of help if you end up mocking up anything.

Open the related campaign file (in regular MTW it would be EARLY.TXT, HIGH.TXT or LATE.TXT) and find the line:

SetGameEndDate:: nnnn
Change the nnnn to your liking.

I might do that for reg CoD so I can play late and high games without worrying about time.

doesnt that only works when you start a campaign and not in the middle of one

It worked in my ongoing MTW/VI campaigns; doesn't work in RTW/BI ones.

Hi there, I have no idea about moding games but really want to keep a late campaign in XL mod going. can some one give me some advice on how to find the above infomation on my computer? Do I need any sort of sofware to edit stuff like this?

many thanks :bow:

It's just a .txt file so notepad will be fine.

Just take a look in the MTW folder, you can't miss them, then follow Mouzaphaerre's directions a little earlier in the thread.

CAN SOMEONE HELP? :wall:

I can't find the end date line in any of the folders.
I'm sure I'm looking in the right place but all I can find are the start dates.

Can some good soul give me a set of clear directions including sub folders?

call it an idiots guide to modding!

I'm playing the XL MOD by the way.

many thanks
