Thread: changing racial attributes ?

    Default changing racial attributes ?

    Hi, I have a quick question... I'm pretty sure this is rather simple but id like to knoiw how to change racial attributes of a nation.. for example I want to play the Armenians but the fact that the portraits and architecture for armenian people look middle-eastern really bother me since in the time of Rome Armenia was well known to be one of the greatest hellenistic nations ... So i'm wondering how to change Armenia for a middle-eastern looking race to a greek looking one..

    Thanks :)

    Why don't you start here:

    It's not exactly what you want but should get you started.

    I'm guessing you just want to substitute greek portaits for armenian (eastern?) ones.

    Then you may wish to change the Armenians from the Eastern culture to the Greek culture.

    yes, you could change the culture or you could open up both sets of UI cards and such in photoshop and fiddle with them as to make them look semi-hellenistic...

    If you're using 1.5, it can be changed in descr_sm_factions.

    No, names are assigned by faction, not by culture. See DATA\descr_names.txt.
