    Exclamation Adding Princesses to the Viking Faction

    Hello,

    I was just wondering how you can add the princess unit to the faction of the Vikings.
    I was poking through the folders in my Total War folder, and I noticed in the Viking names text document, there's a LOOONG list of Viking princesses... who don't appear in the game. So, I want to add the princesses to the Vikings.

    Anyone know how to do this?

    Thanks so much!

    I've been trying to implement this into my games. However, all I get are CTDs (crash to desktop).

    Aw *snap* It's weird, though- why do they have a long list of Viking names for the princesses if they didn't even put them in?

    Maybe some of the older Modders can be of assistance. Such as Ras, BKB, DukeJohn, VikingHorde, WesW etc.

    Hello,

    feel free to send me a PM next time. I always like to help.
    I haven't checked this section for a few days/ weeks, so I completely missed this.
    You still need to declare the names of the princesses as Rythmic said.
    Iirc, it's in the heroes or names file. The easiest thing is to note down an actual existing name and do a text search for it in the txt. files. You should come up with 1 or 2 places where the name is defined.
    This is an example from our Shogun mod as a starting point:

    First you need to add the character in the heroes-file:
    ADD_PRINCESS::
    stw_Kazuko
    Now you need to define the characters' name in the Names-file:
    ["stw_Kazuko"] {"Kazuko"}
