    Have you got Xpak? It deals with the .pak files. \I use it a lot, although I am the self-proclaimed Modder Most Likely to Cause a Disaster With a .PAK File. It means you can fiddle with the UI, although you then must rename your .paks. I bet there's a tutorial somewhere.

    for the really basic how to unpack it there is
    http://www.twcenter.net/wiki/Unpakin...s:Step-by-Step

    if you're working in a mod folder (recommended) you don't need to re-pack just have the new stuff in the mod folder and leave the packs in place in the RTW folder, but use the unpacker to get to any base information you need, like example UI cards.

    I have the files unpacked I just need to re-pack unless if I used a mod folder i'm guessing. But I don't think that would work because I don't know how to get the UI differences into the game. Which is why I think I need to re-pack. I think I can use Xpak for that?

    you can use xpak to repack but I don't think you need to.

    If your unit is using a new dictionary name I think it will find your new UI etc anyway from within rtw/data/ui, but best method is still to use mod-folder. To set it up in mod folder you need to copy the data/world/map/... info and the data/text files for the campaign's regions over, but that's all from the original files. Then just create the directory structure that exists within the packs so for greek_cities unit cards you'd make folder
    my_mod/data/ui/unit/greek_cities/
    and put new card in there.
