How do I let every faction build highways?

[beatoangelico]

go in C:\Program Files\Activision\Rome - Total War\EB\Data and make a backup copy of the "export_descr_buildings.txt" file. Now open it and search "highways", you should see this line

 highways requires factions { seleucid, } and not hidden_resource nopavedroads

replace with

 highways requires factions { saba, barbarian, romans_brutii, egypt, romans_scipii, carthage, parthia, numidia, thrace, greek_cities, macedon, romans_julii, seleucid, pontus, armenia, }

then delete "and not hidden_resource nopavedroads" in the

        paved_roads requires factions { romans_brutii, egypt, numidia, thrace, greek_cities, carthage, macedon, romans_julii, seleucid, parthia, romans_scipii, gauls, scythia, } and not hidden_resource nopavedroads and building_present_min_level government gov4

the EB file is very complex so I could be wrong , but if you respect the proper (original) syntax you shouldn't have problems.
