View Full Version : Hippodromes for Greek factions?

Is it possible to convert the Greek factions' elite cavalry stables into proper hippodromes on the battle map? It seems logical to change them as the Greeks loved horse races - hippodrome is a Greek word, after all. I'm guessing you have to make changes to descr_settlement_plan, but I wouldn't know where to start.:embarassed:

In the slot_256x96_equestrian section of descr_settlement_plan.txt seacrh for the greek entry and change "greek_elite_cavalry_stables" to "hippodrome" and "floor none greek_equestrian_lvl04_overlay.cas" to "floor none overlay_hippodrome.cas" just as in the roman entry.



variant
{
cultures
{
roman
}
buildings
{
equestrian hippodrome
}
floor none overlay_hippodrome.cas
slot_upgrade_112x64_256x96_roman, 0, 0, 0, 0
hippodrome, 0, 0, 0, 0
}

variant
{
cultures
{
greek
}
buildings
{
equestrian hippodrome
}
floor none greek_equestrian_lvl04_overlay.cas
slot_upgrade_112x64_256x96_greek, 0, 0, 0, 0
greek_elite_cavalry_stables, 0, 0, 0, 0
}




In the slot_112x64_equestrian section, you can do the same or just add greek to the cultures in the roman entry and remove it from the greek level 4 entry. To change circus maximus too, do the same with the cm entry in the slot_256x96_equestrian section.
