Hello, I am new to game modifications and I have a couple of questions. I downloaded the patch and experienced the 20,000 man Horde. Then I downloaded the Wes_crusader at the .org. (It is a pre-patch file that allows all the factions to build crusaders). It is composed of crusader_build_prod13 and crusader_unit_prod11.

I started a new campaign, and everything seemed to work normally. (The units were tied to the era). Then, I reached the Year of the Horde, but the Horde was the pre-patch horde I did some testing: First I tried some old post-patch saved games, and the results were always the same--Old Horde. In addition, now all the factions can make crusades.

Then I reinstalled the original crusader files, and tried the new saved games (from when I started all of this) and old saved games (pre-patch), and again, always the Old Horde.

My questions are:

How are the crusader_build_prod13 and crusader_unit_prod11 files supposed to work on the game? I understand their purpose, but not exactly how they work.

How can I have the New Horde back? I like the New Horde Should I reinstall the patch again, or can I just start a new game with the original files instead of the new ones?

How can I adapt the crusader files to the post-patch game? What should I change in the crusader files to have both the New Horde and the ability to make crusades with all factions?

Thank you in advance for you time, I appreciate any help on this.
