    Default 2 questions about DLV campaign

    I've just installed DLV 5.1 and the 5.2 patch but I have a question. I don't know much about modding etc.

    The faction names are not in English or Dutch and are pretty unfamiliar for me, so I want to change that, but in the descr_strat file are the factions names just like they were without a mod. Where and how can I change the faction names?

    DLV_ext\data\text\expanded (BACK-UP THIS FILE)

    Open the expanded txt file. Look for lines like this...

    {VENICE}Serenìsima Repùblica Vèneta
    {SICILY}Royaume de Sicile
    {MILAN}Lega Lombarda
    {PAPAL_STATES}Patrimonium Sancti Petri
    {DENMARK}Kongeriget Danmark
    {EGYPT}al-Ayyubiyyun
    {SCOTLAND}Rìoghachd na h-Alba
    {AZTECS}Native American
    {MONGOLS}Mongol Uls
    {TURKS}al-Utmaniyyun
    {FRANCE}Royaume de France
    {HRE}Heiliges Römisches Reich
    {ENGLAND}Kingdom of England
    {PORTUGAL}El Reino de Gallaecia y Portucal
    {POLAND}Królestwo Polskie
    {BYZANTIUM}Basileia ton Romaion
    {MOORS}al-Muwahhidun
    {RUSSIA}Veliki Novgorod
    {SPAIN}El Reino de Castilla y Leon
    {HUNGARY}Magyar Királyság
    {SLAVE}Rebels
    {SAXONS}Saxons
    {SOUTHERN_EUROPEAN}Southern European
    {NORTHERN_EUROPEAN}Northern European
    {MESOAMERICAN}Mesoamerican
    {GREEK}Byzantine

    See the names outside the brackets? Change them to what you will. Leave the names inside the brackets exactly as they are or you will suffer constant CTD's, burning fever & sever bowel dysfunction.

    When you've finished changing the names delete the file in the same folder called expanded.txt.strings.

    That's it..

    Thanks very much, I'm going to try it and then I'm going to start a campaign with the DLV Mod. I've never really used a mod before, except for a couple of turns with SS 5.1. So I'm very curieus how the mod is

    It's much, much harder than vanilla. Read the handbook before playing. You have been warned...

    Carefully goes with it - DLV is mean and nasty to new players. The experience will leave you buckled and bent (but still with a smile on your face).

    Good luck commander!

    In the same file. Search for Jerusalem.
