    Default Faction shield addon for unit info cards

    FACTION SHIELD ADDON FOR UNIT INFO CARDS RELEASED!



    CHANGES

    This mod makes only one small but nice improvement to M2TW: it adds mini faction shields to unit info cards. It may look a small mod, but making it took many hours. Thus I hope you enjoy it!
    Only strategic agents, Norman, Saxon and mercenary units lack these changes.

    INSTALLATION

    These instructions are also included in each part of the mod.

    This is how to install Da Goofy's Faction shield addon for unit info cards for Medieval II: Total War Grand
    Campaign:

    1. Download all of the FOUR parts of this mod.

    2. Open your "Faction shield addon for unit cards part 1" folder and copy the "data" folder found inside it, then open your Medieval II: Total War directory (by default it is C:\Program Files\SEGA\Medieval II Total War), then paste the folder and let your computer replace the old one. (Your computer probably says the process lasts for some 2 hours, but it takes only several dozens of seconds.)

    3. Repeat the step number 2 with "Faction shield addon for unit cards" parts 2, 3 and 4 "data" folders.

    4. Open Part 1 folder and copy both "M2TW.bat" and "M2TW.cfg" files and paste them to your Medieval II: Total War directory (the default directory is mentioned above).

    5. Now right-click your M2TW.bat file (it should be the upper one) and click "Create a shortcut". Then cut the shortcut and paste it to your desktop.

    6. Right-click the shortcut and click "Properties". Click "Change icon", then "Browse". Find your way to your Medieval II: Total War directory and double-click Kingdoms.exe. Now choose the original icon.

    7. Rename your shortcut (if you want).

    This mod is fully save-game compatible.
    Notice that you need an unpacking program such as WinRAR or WinZip to unpack this mod.
    Oh, and what I forgot to mention in installation instructions: your M2TW must be unpacked (I'm not 100 but 99% percent sure about it) before this mod works!

    Thanks mister!

    By the way, it's very interesting that 9 people have downloaded the first part but only 4 the second one, not to mention 3rd and 4th parts.

    Those who aren't very computer savvy will tend to just download the first thing they see assuming it's the one they want and the rest are optional.

    Yup, that's exactly what I thought.
