Thread: How to merge Magna Carta and RTW?

    Default How to merge Magna Carta and RTW?

    I'm considering building a mod that would play the units of Rome Total Realitu on the Magna Carta Map.

    I'm currently playing Magna Carta, and I downloaded RTR. What are the files that I do not have to change in order to keep the big map?

    I'm prepared to heavily edit the descr_strat.text file

    Anyone did this before?

    I think it will be hard if provinces are different, factions, etc. zor units can be a problem, since they're assigned to certain provinces. I thin you'll have to visit more than descr_strat.txt

    What about :

    1) installing Magna Carta

    2) adding the units in RTR e_d_u to Magna Carta e_d_u

    3) editind descr_strat to the new RTR units

    Would it work?

    No, you need to at least also replace the descr_model_battle file, the export_units file, the export_descr_buildings file and the export_buildings file (or edit edb to build the right units), and possibly more.

    Perhaps it would be easier to insert the maps of Magna Carta as a provincial campaign in the RTR mod.
    At first sight you should copy the whole folder of Magna Carta and edit there descr_strat and descr_mercenaries with the units of RTR.
    You must also include the Magna_Carta_regions_and_settlements_bla_bla in the text folder.
    The major problem will be the rebels. It would be necessary to include the new rebels in the corresponding files (descr_rebel_factions, or something like that), checking that all the rebel factions in Magna Carta are collected there.

    Perhaps I didn't explain it very clearly, but I have not the game here. Sorry!
