HowTo: Set up MTW2 for modding

[JimCanuck]

I'm stuck.

I can't edit the BAT file.

I've tried just clicking the edit button after right clicking on the BAT file as Alpaca instructed but it comes back with:

"Cannot create the blah blah blah file.

Make sure the path and file name are correct"

Can anyone help?

hi, im new to modding and i just wanted to fix a few things i didnt like in the game. ur guide was extremely helpful and I thank you for that. I followed what you said for the method of
[io]
file_first = 1

[log]
to = logs/system.log.txt
level = * error

I then created the bat file with medieval2.exe @mymod.cfg inside.
I then double clicked it and it started up and I got excited but then it crashed. It gets to the first screen for 3 seconds before it closes down and I can't figure out what is going on. I deleted those files with geography so I know that's not the problem also when you add
[io]
file_first = 1

[log]
to = logs/system.log.txt
level = * error

Do you need to hit enter after it to leave a blank space between that and [audio]

I just wanted to add musketeers to the English and the French and the Sicilians and cut the upkeep down a little bit.
