**yamijhon** · July 07, 2007, 10:45 PM

hi pplz

i just lookin' 4 ppl who can help me with my idea, i wanna do a mod all playables faction (even aztecs) and i don't know how must start it.

need back up (lol)

tnx 4 all

PS: i wanna do a mod but NO PATCH REQUIRED!!!
that's the idea

**kelvintyk** · July 07, 2007, 11:36 PM

But i don't think anyone would wanna play a mod that stucks itself to version 1.0. Since 1.0 sucks.

I would suggest you download an existing mod for this, and look at what files have been changed. Then start making similar changes to your setup.

All you need for this is a text editor ( notepad ) and you are pretty much sorted.

As has been pointed out, though, hardly anyone is still using the stock unpatched game, so don't expect a flock of interested people. The all factions change was one of hte firdt things people did to the game, so this isn't new ground

Yea, basically anyone can make all factions playable (including aztecs, timurids and mongols) ....just anyone.

WHAT MUST I CHANGE?

that's the help i need

Sorry dude, but this has been done loooong ago.

i know about the playables faction... but i wanna play with aztecs n' i can't!

lol... i'm not a lol

lol, I did not say your name was lol, lol but the aztecs? It would have been wierd if aztecs conquered Europe? It would be more like a fantasy mod, I mean the Aztecs only fought against other meso-american(It means latin-americans) tribes.
What about you making a mod about taking over the whole Middle America and the northern part of south america? Meso-American Wars maybe a good name for the mod.

I hope you get a team assembled

Best luck!

If you are going to do this I can help you with the regions and factions.

**Vorge** · July 08, 2007, 11:12 PM

What you need to do is edit the descr_strat and a couple other files so that the Aztecs appear at the start of the game and not the end. If you want to do this I would advise adding some regions and maybe even just copying the aztecs and making a couple other Meso-American factions. Good luck

I made a map for the aztec regions, you can decide yourself if you like it. Please dont be harsh I made it in 3 hours

Here is the map.

The red is of course aztec and the slightly dark grey regions is rebel ones. More to come...

**Vorge** · July 08, 2007, 11:42 PM

That is nice looking. Gah! I was a member of the team for The Eagle and The Lake: Total War and then I had a computer crash and lost all my mapping files. Killed the mod

But if I were you I would expand your map farther north and south... if you are serious about this that little chunk will not last long. Especially with the small amount of factions there wouldn't be a ton of draw to it.

tnx... but that option isn't 100% playable, i mean, u can play with aztecs, but u can't recruit or build anything.

i wanna some more cool

**Vorge** · July 18, 2007, 05:37 PM

Do you want to make a new campaign or just playable aztecs? If you want a new campaign you should work with Yucatan:Total War. If just playable that won't take to much work.

**Gundug** · July 19, 2007, 12:18 PM

My mod has playable Aztecs, with a nice building tree and new units. Why don't you take a look at the files and see if you would like to use it as a base to build your own mod from. Aside from any customizations to the text files you might like to make, you can replace my map with your own. Check out my sig, if you are interested.
