The UPC-SHO doesn't need to be activated with the Mod Manager or added to the user script. The UPC is a patch-type file which loads automatically.

To install UPC-SHO you have to copy the file into this folder:

Windows XP:
C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\total war shogun 2\data

Windows Vista/7:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\total war shogun 2\data


Important information for MODDERS:

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

The language file system has changed in SHOGUN 2.

Here is the thread with the related information:
[Resource] Shogun 2 "Language" and "Encyclopedia" files

You can use the UPC files for your own mod, just give me credits on your thread.

If you want that your mod will be integrated into the UPC, then you can send me a PM or post a message on this thread.

The easiest way for me would be if you could upload your exported TSV localisation file with your custom entries at the end. If you sorted your language file alphabetically, then it is almost impossible for me to gather all your custom entries within the vanilla entries. Please upload only your custom entries in this case.

Hello to all SHOGUN 2 players,

today I released the first version of the UPC-SHO.

I released the UPC-SHO to include and combine custom mod strings and add "vanilla text fixes". I saw several little text errors in the meantime.

Please report any vanilla text errors that you find and I will include these fixes.

First release:
- contains the complete DEMO localisation
- several minor text fixes by Swiss Halberdier


If you want to see all units with their names that are probably in the final release please do the following steps. You need the "Pack File Manager" to open the pack files.

> English UPC-SHO
Open the folder "text\db" and open the table "units.loc". There you will see all included unit names.

> German, French and Spanish UPC-SHO
Open the folder "text" and open the table "localisation.loc". Click on the "Tag" column to sort the file. Scroll to the end and you'll see the "units_on_screen_name_*" entries.

Cheers
Swiss Halberdier

Great stuff Swiss, however I read somewhere that now we don't need lots and lots of .locs so makes your life easier

Hello Dynamo11, yes it seems that the new system is really an improvement as it is described in my thread here:

[Resource] Shogun 2 "Language" and "Encyclopedia" files

But it needs further testing to be sure. I saw several little text errors while playing and therefore I fixed some.

Please report any vanilla text errors that you find and I will include these fixes.

Excellent work Swiss Halbedier , + rep . Any news on a AUM pack for shogun 2 ? Or will it be difficult to get new units in or do you think the current units are reflected historically accurate . Do you think shogun has enough room for skinners to get creative, i mean in NTW and ETW and even in MTW2 there were so many units and also you can get much more litarature on europe then on japan. Would like to hear you're opinions on this subject. Thanks

Hello Rigby, thanks a lot for your nice comment. At the moment I'm thinking about which units I want to add into my upcoming AUM-Shogun. But first the modding tools must be updated by our famous tool modders before I can start to mod.

I think the vanilla roster is quite historical and it covers a good amount of unit types. The texture/models system is almost the same like in Napoleon:TW.

[Lord Willy]

yay! Swiss UPC in Shogun 2! This will be my favourite mod as always

Hello to all UPC-SHO users,

the first patch has been released yesterday and it contains several text fixes.

Unfortunately I have problems to access and edit the patched language files with the actual PFM tool which doesn't support the files properly yet.

I will update the UPC-SHO as soon as possible. Please remove the UPC file until I release the update.

Please report any vanilla text errors that you find and I will include these fixes.

Cheers
Swiss Halberdier

[Iperione]

There will also be the Italian UPC?

[Swiss Halberdier]

There will also be the Italian UPC?

Hello Iperione, unfortunately there will be no Italian UPC. My three UPC projects (ETW/NTW/SH2) consume much time and I can't add any other languages at the moment.

I couldn't edit the patched language files with the actual PFM tool yet. Because of several issues regarding the file type format. I will update the UPC-SHO as soon as possible.

Please remove the UPC file until I release the update.

Please report any vanilla text errors that you find and I will include these fixes.

Cheers
Swiss Halberdier

[Iperione]

I see, thank you for the answer.

Currently I have not found any text errors, if I found them, I would report them.

[Swiss Halberdier]

Today a new official patch has been released through Steam. The "local_*_patch.pack" language file has been updated. I have to check this file and I will update the UPC-SHO soon.

[Swiss Halberdier]

Great work mate - as always

[Meethos]

Hey Swiss forgive my ignorance but what exactly is this for? Does it go along with your AUM mod? Or is this a modding resource? Sorry again for the dumb question.
