Modding unplayable civilizations to playable

[Horatius]

I have tried to mod Rome Total War+Barbarian Invasion to allow me to play all the civilizations (Other then Slavs, Slaves, Ostrogoths and Romano-British, Eastern and Western Empire Rebels since they aren't possible to use).

However the only unplayables I have been able to use have been Macedonians, Celts, and Berbers.

I see their icons at the options screen for right before playing however whenever I click on them the game crashes.

Can someone tell me why I'm not able to play these and how to fix it? I would like to see what I could do with Armenia in RTW Original.

Patch to 1.6
Then you won't get anymore crashes.

Horatius: you have to open the descr_strat file and copy and paste end_unplayable factions into the list of end_playable factions. However, if you try to play the Senate or Rebels R:TW will probably crash. Those emergent factions are playable as well, check out The_Stranger's mod in the Forge section.
