How to - Add/Remove names from a faction
1 - Adding a new name
Open the following files
Rome - Total War\Data\descr_names.txt
Rome - Total War\Data\descr_names_lookup.txt
Rome - Total War\Data\text\names.txt
descr_names_lookup.txt is a list of all the names used by characters, admirals, agents, women, surenames and forenames, in the game. They are actually references, not the text which appears on screen, so note that there should be no spaces. For example:
In this tutorial we will add Shaidar as a forename and Haran as a surname. So add these to the bottom of this file, save and quit.Code:of_Scodra of_Lissus of_Dimale of_Dyrrachium of_Epidamnus of_Antipatreia of_Apollonia of_Oricus of_Antigonela of_Phoenice of_Ambracia of_Actium of_Same of_Naupactus of_Patrae of_Elis of_Olympia of_Messene of_Pylos of_Sparta of_Gythium of_Argos of_Corinth of_Aegium of_Delphi of_Piraeus of_Athens of_Oropus of_Thebes of_Delium of_Chalcis of_Eretria of_Nicaea of_Echinus of_Lamia of_Heraclea of_Gomphi of_Pharsalus of_Scotussa of_Pherae of_Demetrias of_Larissa of_Phalanna of_Gonni of_Heracleum of_Pythion of_Libethron of_Dium of_Portaes of_Petra of_Pydna of_Pella of_Ottolobus of_Thessalonica of_Cassandreia of_Amphipolis of_Abdera of_Maroneia of_Aenus of_Cypsela of_Lysimachia of_Lampsacus of_Abydos of_Ilium of_Naulochus of_Messana of_Mylae of_Catana of_Centuripae of_Enna of_Armerinia of_Morgantina of_Syracuse of_Gela of_Agrigentum of_Selinus of_Lilybaeum of_Drepana of_Segesta of_Panormus of_Himera
names.txt is where these references are allocated to the text on screen. As you can see, the format is
So add:Code:{reference} name
To the bottom of the line NB there should be three tabs between reference and nameCode:{Shaidar} Shaidar {Haran} Haran
And finally descr_names.txt is where we allocate names to factions. The format is:
So add Shaidar and Haran under the category you wish.Code:Faction: faction characters names ... surnames surnames ... women womens names ...
1 - Removing a name
Removing a name is even simpler, simply search for all references to it in descr_names.txt, and remove them. Easy!
