Darknut Legion missing building options

[SmaugTheDragon]

It is probably a common bug, but playing Darknut I could not build any city upgrades and therefore make conquered settlements useful.
Is there any way to fix this?

[SmaugTheDragon]

Also, I can build lesser deity worship shrines only in some regions, it is difficult to hold a province with strict goddess worship with no way to convert them.

It is a common bug, and I heard somewhere that this will be fixed in the next realize. There is an easy way to fix it BUT it will make all of your previous savegames useless [all of them, for any faction, any time before this fix].

To fix it you must first locate the file export_descr_buildings.txt. It is inside the folder C:\...\Medieval II Total War\mods\Hyrule\data . Then open it with notepad or any other text editor.

Just in the very first lines you will see something like this [I marked in red the important lines for this fix]:

The important ones that I marked in red are in the lines 15,46,78,104 and 135.
To fix the darknut [and the twili if you add "mesoamerican"] you must add "darknutish" inside the "{ }" after the "wooden_pallisade city requires faction" thing. Repeat for each wall level [there are 5].

the line will look something like this:
wooden_pallisade city requires factions { northern_european, middle_eastern, barbari_european, vreek, southern_european, darknutish, mesoamerican,}

Just remember to write it without any mistake or else the game will crash. I hope it helps.

EDIT: For the shrines I remember that the settlement needs to have at least some percentage [I don´t remember how much] of that religion to be able to build that. I think it was intended that some generals would increase to certain amount of their religion in a settlement but it doesn´t seems to work.

Thank you, this fixed it!
But still CTD are really commonplace in this mod, really hope next release makes everything more stable.

[SmaugTheDragon]

Ok, after playing for about 25 turns:

• Still can't upgrade settlements.
• Darknut culture towns now have their own unique model (gray blocky one).
• Hyrule and Ordona Province settlements have turned into weird not selectable wall-things

On further investigation not the settlements themselves, but some resource?

[fernavliz]

Oh damm it, I made a mistake. I were very distracted and I didn´t see if it were the correct building [I tried and fixed it so long ago that I forgot with building is the correct and I didn´t erase the not necessary, the one I told you]; very sorry.

Okay, So the buildings upgrades are called "issettlement_1" [the number is for each level; there are 8].
In the same file with the same logic look for the lines that looks like this and add "darknutish, mesoamerican,":

issettlement_1 requires factions { northern_european, middle_eastern, barbari_european, vreek, southern_european, darknutish, mesoamerican, }

There are 8 for issettlement buildings upgrade and 8 for iscastle buildings upgrade. [look to the lines 332, 351, 371, 391, 411, 431, 451, 471]. I think you can just add the faction name too [look at the "iscastle" buildings at line 499, it has the factions name instead of "culture"]. So this is how this file works and it enables buildings for faction or "culture"; you can add farm and mine levels to the twili if you want.

Again, sorry for the inconvenience I caused; I were too distracted with other things that I just gave a quick and unchecked answer. I´m sure that at least this will make the darknut able to upgrade the settlement.

[SmaugTheDragon]

Back from a camping trip so just right now checking this out.

This issettlement_8 differs from the previous lines and already has darknut in it?

issettlement_8 city requires factions { goron, darknut, zuna, }

Also castle levels already has all factions enabled.

I will now check if this changes anything.

Still messing around a little the culture specific settlements look really cool.
