Can anybody give me tips/advice for how I can add new factions, like the Scots, as a playable faction. I know how to mod the Startpos files and that stuff, but I don't know how to add an entirely new faction. Also how can I make BIF files for sheilds etc or can anyone give me some you've made for your mods.

Have you read thru and followed the links in "Introduction to Modding"?

Sorry I should have been more specific, modding for MTW v1.1. That links to RTW

Have a look in the repository (https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/forumdisplay.php?f=39). The guides there are written for M:TW 2.01 though, but I think VI did not alter many things (it did unlock several features, though).

Unfortunately mate you can only add factions once you have Viking Invasion installed.

Yep so I've heard, but you can replace factions and I've replaced the burgundians with the scots. I'm having trouble replacing the burgundian castle flags with scottish ones though, I can't find were they're stored
