im using PFM 5.2.4 and a fresh install of ETW 1.5.0 (Definitive edition if that matters) on Windows 10
the game either doesn't apply the changes I make, or it CTDs at start-up. for reference i'm only trying to change euro grenadiers to 160 men just as an initial test
I have followed the various instructions such as extracting the unit database from patch5.pack (and in later attempts the other packs too), renaming the db with a prefix (and not renaming), enabling the mod in the script .txt (or switching to movie type)
