Then you are either not editing the correct file (you might be editing the vanilla file instead of the one in your modfolder) or our system does not let you edit the file, in which case you need to turn User Authentication off.

It doens't make any difference ,it still doesn't work DAMN!!!!

Could virusses make such things happen??

I doubt it. You are doing something wrong, I'm afraid.

Wait ,you say the vanilla/data/world/maps/base go in BMM/data/world/maps/base do they go in BMM/data/world/maps/campaing/imperial_camping too?
and:
RTW/data/world/maps/campaign/imperial_campaign/ are copied inside RTW/BMM/data/world/maps/base/imperial_campaign/.

is this a mistake, is there a folder named imperial_campaing in the base folder?

You need to have a RTW/BMM/data/world/maps/campaign/imperial_campaign and a RTW/BMM/data/world/maps/base folder. And these two folders must be copies of RTW/data/world/maps/campaign/imperial_campaign and a RTW/data/world/maps/base respectively.

great ! but is there an other way to makle ur own mod (for example : a program??)

**Aradan** · November 15, 2010, 08:34 AM

If there was another, easier way, we'd already be using it, wouln't we?

**IMPERATOR AUGUSTUS CAESAR** · November 15, 2010, 10:39 AM

Yeah ,thx anyway

**IMPERATOR AUGUSTUS CAESAR** · November 15, 2010, 10:57 AM

maybe ,you should try this ,this works at my computer : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Au0zL9THjE4

The video simply shows how to use pak extractor. This is no tool to create a mod, it just unpacks .pak files.

At any rate, the process of copying two folders from vanilla's data folder in your mod's data folder isn't all that complicated.

**IMPERATOR AUGUSTUS CAESAR** · November 16, 2010, 08:09 AM

it's not hte only video , he's made more parts ,so part 1 is the pack extractor and part 2 is unit creating and so on.

**Aradan** · November 16, 2010, 08:13 AM

That's still not a program that allows you to mod or creates a mod for you. That's a number of different programs people can use to mod different pars of the game.

**IMPERATOR AUGUSTUS CAESAR** · November 17, 2010, 08:07 AM

Ok ,f u sA so .

Here are the files,so you can take a look:
