How do I get a 0 year build time

[Mahrabals apprentice]

I would like to play Vanilla BI for a while before I try a modded version EXCEPT I want to reduce the build times. I am sure I will dl the SPQR mod for BI at some stage

[Simetrical]

Open Rome - Total War\bi\data\export_descr_unit.txt in Notepad. Press Ctrl-H. Replace all instances of

stat_cost        1

with

stat_cost        0

, then repeat for

stat_cost        2

. Make sure you get the spacing right―there are exactly eight spaces. (Assuming BI doesn't use different conventions.) This will work with previously saved games.

And make sure you back up your files!

something you might want to know is that if you set the build to 0 it won't work, so just put in 1 I think that the minimum you can put. I tried it before so I know :)

Then how was it done for the SPQR mod? there must be a way

[Suraknar]

maybe install SPQR in a separate Folder ...

...and Take it apart comparing the Modded Files with the Vanilla ones?

It is one of the ways to learn when answers dont fall from the Authors

Besides, the authors are prolly busy making another mod :)
