    Default Question: New Messages

    I come to ask here if someone knows how to create new messages in rtw-bi.

    I know how to edit them, or how to place ex historical messages; however i will like to CREATE new ones.
    exist no tutorials anywhere.

    I've created a new message form (by a simple copy-paste) in the descr_event_images.txt ; consequently, i've added the title string to the descr_event_enums.txt and the "body" string to message_text_lookup.txt.

    Obviously, i've added descriptions in text\event_strings.txt and text\event_titles.txt.

    the first time the show_err says i've exceeded the limit of allowed messages. Well, i've erased the senseless "wonder_lost" on all the previous files (except for text ones, i know there will be no problem with some description more).

    So looks like it could work, BUT the show_err stops the game saying that this new message is not recognized.

    and i think is right, because in the descr_event_enums.txt i've said nothing upon the condition for this message to appear, and i've just told the descr_event_images.txt how the game will look like.

    it SHOULD exist a descr_event.txt. but exist not...
    Did someone knows anything?

    We're all lost there. Both me and Monkwarrior have started threads on the subject of event messages lately. Maybe you should take a look.
