To my knowledge, no one has gone through with it, but it is very easy to do yourself. Unfortunately, it's also very tedious, as you have to go through each and every unit. Anyway, I can give you the instructions here. Okay. First off, make a backup of the single player export_descr_unit (that's what edu stands for) file. You will find it in "where-ever-you-installed-RTW\EB\sp game edu backup". This is both so you can revert back to regular EB if you change your mind, and so that you can get the correct ownership lines later. Also make a backup the descr_projectiles_new file, which you will find at "where-ever-you-installed-RTW\EB\data" for the first reason.
Then go and download the MP edu here. Unfortunately, you don't seem to get the projectiles file there, so I uploaded it myself here. Put the edu in "where-ever-you-installed-RTW\EB\sp game edu backup", and the descr_projectiles_new in "where-ever-you-installed-RTW\EB\data".
Then open both the regular EB edu and the MP edu. Press ctrl + f to search for ;487 to skip to the first unit with the differences, the African Forest Elephant. The first line to look at is the second last one which should look like this in the MP edu:
Code:
stat_cost 2, 7500, 2500, 270, 400, 7500
The first number is how many turns it takes to recruit it, the second number the recruitment cost and the third the upkeep. After that are the weapon and armour cost for upgrades, and lastly the recruitment cost in custom battles. So, to calculate these elephants new upkeep cost, you take the recruitment cost - the second from the left, i.e. 7500 - and divide it by 4.
7500 / 4 = 1875.
Then you change the third number into 1875, so it looks like this:
Code:
stat_cost 2, 7500, 1875, 270, 400, 7500
Then the upkeep cost for these beasts is done. Next is ownership, which is the line just below it.
Code:
ownership egypt, numidia, saba, slave, seleucid
To know what it should be like, look in the regular SP edu and if necessary just copy that line and paste it into the MP edu, overwriting the pre-existing line. In this case, though, it's not necessary since the African Forest Elephants have the same ownership in MP as they do in SP.
Then you just have to go down the list and do that with every unit until you reach the end. As I said, it's not difficult, it's just tedious.
Good luck!
