Changing faction names mid-game

[Ayce]

You have to change the agent's texture. Take the Baktrian one.

[Maion Maroneios]

OK this is all very nice lads, but could you stick to the topic please? If you want to show your faction's colors you can do so... elsewhere or something...

[Olaf The Great]

Cmon TPC/Foot, need that Hai Empire naaame :P

[Maion Maroneios]

Yeah, I would do with some extra info about the rest too :P

[QuintusSertorius]

Campaign screen stuff is changed, but the banner colours and such in battles aren't (as in they're still green).



Where do you get to them? Or did I miss something when I was editing before?

You'd need to change the textures.

Hmm, now you're going beyond the limits of my abilities, I think. They're in .dds format, whatever that is. Taking that association off the end doesn't turn them into .tga's either.

Is there a masterclass somewhere on how you play around with them?

Modding textures is also beyond my abilities. I only know they're there because I've been looking around the folders. Actually, you can view them as .tga's, at least I can. If you really need to change them for making a better distinction on the battle map, you could indeed swap around Baktria's dark blue textures with yours.

[MarcusAureliusAntoninus]

I'd just disable battle banners, if I were you. Then you don't have to worry about their color.

[Olaf The Great]

Apparently the Yervaduni dynasty would be called "Orontid(sp?) So ...I was trying to figure out what the
name of the "Orontid Persian Empire" would be in the Persian language.
I didn't get very far because I don't know..um..anything about it :)

[Celtic_Punk]

[Jolt]

Once you have established the new Persianate dynasty, you may call them Arshkânîg/Arshkanig (Which means "Arsacids").

Credit goes to TPC, for telling how Pahlava should be called after it forms it's Empire.

[helenos aiakides]

Does changing name effect reforms?

[QuintusSertorius]

Does changing name effect reforms?

Nope, the reforms are keyed to the internal names, which are the original RTW names for factions in the main.
