5) That's it - No more excommunications, no more pope
NB! Faction leader still has the pope's model on campaign map
6)(Optional) You also should edit "campaign_descriptions" and "expanded" in "installed folder"\Medieval II Total War\mymod\data\text
7)(Optional) In "expanded" file change these
Code:
{EMT_PAPAL_STATES_FACTION_LEADER}Papal States Pope
{EMT_PAPAL_STATES_FACTION_LEADER_TITLE}Pope
{EMT_PAPAL_STATES_FACTION_LEADER_NAME}Pope %S
{EMT_PAPAL_STATES_FACTION_HEIR_NAME}!DO NOT TRANSLATE! PLAYER SHOULD NOT SEE THIS!
{EMT_PAPAL_STATES_FORMER_FACTION_LEADER_TITLE}Pope
to
Code:
{EMT_PAPAL_STATES_FACTION_LEADER}Papal States Leader
{EMT_PAPAL_STATES_FACTION_LEADER_TITLE}King
{EMT_PAPAL_STATES_FACTION_LEADER_NAME}King %S
{EMT_PAPAL_STATES_FACTION_HEIR_NAME}Prince %S
{EMT_PAPAL_STATES_FORMER_FACTION_LEADER_TITLE}King

4) Congratulation England is the new papal state
4.1) You can add this line to any faction and to any religion
4.2) The pope only favors factions that are the same religion
4.3) That means if you add this line to Islam religion faction then all other Islam religion factions will start favoring the "Papal States"
4.4) Same is with Orthodox
5) (Optional) If you add this line to any Islam faction then you can call Jihads besides Crusades
6) (Optional) You can also add this to an Orthodox faction but you can't call the Crusades - Result CTD
