Building Icon and Decription

**LucaviX** · 03-18-2005, 17:44

I want to put paved roads in Briton. Well, actually, I already have, but instead of showing me a paved road and a description as it would when I take over a roman city, it shows a barrack building and warns me that the message should never be shown.

How do I get it to show the basic paved roads picture and description?

PS: I don't want to download a huge mod that will make hundreds of changes to my game, I just want functional paved roads in briton.

PPS: I don't care about realism, but realistically the British could have learned to build paved roads through trade, they were pretty civilized for "barbarians" after all. Even Rome considered them civilized.

Open in Data/Text: export_buildings.txt

And look for:

Code:

{paved_roads_barbarian_desc}
WARNING! This text should never appear on screen!

{paved_roads_barbarian_desc_short}
WARNING! This text should never appear on screen!

Edit the description to whatever you like.

The Barracks Icon is the default one. I can't remember off the top of my head, but I think the icon is under UI and then the cuture type (you must extract the pak files to get these). You'll have to copy the icon from romans to barbarian.

How do I unpack the Pak files? With this information I could mod the game in great ways.
