    I didn't find any other file. In descr_model_strat you have this
    Code:
    type				diplomat
    skeleton			strat_diplomat
    scale				0.7
    indiv_range			40
    texture				romans_julii, data/models_strat/textures/diplomat_julii.tga
    texture				romans_brutii, data/models_strat/textures/diplomat_brutii.tga
    texture				romans_scipii, data/models_strat/textures/diplomat_scipii.tga
    texture				romans_senate, data/models_strat/textures/diplomat_senate.tga
    texture				macedon, data/models_strat/textures/diplomat_macedon.tga
    texture				egypt, data/models_strat/textures/diplomat_egypt.tga
    texture				seleucid, data/models_strat/textures/diplomat_seleucid.tga
    texture				carthage, data/models_strat/textures/diplomat_carthage.tga
    texture				parthia, data/models_strat/textures/diplomat_parthia.tga
    texture				pontus, data/models_strat/textures/diplomat_pontus.tga
    texture				gauls, data/models_strat/textures/diplomat_gaul.tga
    texture				germans, data/models_strat/textures/diplomat_german.tga
    texture				britons, data/models_strat/textures/diplomat_briton.tga
    texture				armenia, data/models_strat/textures/diplomat_armenia.tga
    texture				dacia, data/models_strat/textures/diplomat_dacia.tga
    texture				greek_cities, data/models_strat/textures/diplomat_greek.tga
    texture				numidia, data/models_strat/textures/diplomat_numidia.tga
    texture				scythia, data/models_strat/textures/diplomat_scythia.tga
    texture				spain, data/models_strat/textures/diplomat_spain.tga
    texture				thrace, data/models_strat/textures/diplomat_thrace.tga
    texture				slave, data/models_strat/textures/diplomat_slave.tga
    model_flexi_m		data/models_strat/diplomat.cas, max
    shadow_model_flexi	data/models_strat/shadow_model_diplomat.cas, max
    and it is possible to change the diplomats, spies and assasins from one faction to another (because the skeleton is always the same).
    However, for generals the situation is different as I said in the previous post.
    In fact I succeded in giving to pontus the generals assigned to a "cartaghe-spain" faction, and to armenia and parthia the normal carthaginian and numidian generals. But it was not possible to move one faction to another culture.
    In any case, I hope you are right and, please, if you find such file let me know asap.
    Regards.

    Edit: just after writng this message some idea came to me.
    Perhaps you was right and the file is descr_character.txt.
    I have revised the files corresponding to a full faction modification (china mod) and it seems possible to create a new group of culture and assign the characters to the new group. E.g.
    Code:
    faction			parthia
    dictionary		2
    strat_card		data/ui/barbarian/agents/card_general_celt.tga
    strat_model		sm_china_lesser_general
    battle_model	china_officer
    battle_equip	gladius, chainmail shirt helmet and rectangular shield
    I will try this idea and will report the result.
    Thanks.
