Too many Alexandria's!!!

[GBart]

Often the first thing I do when entering a city is "convert" all the temples to the gods of the faction I'm playing. I destroy them all and then build my own temples (sometimes a couple other buildings just to make things easier) using the process_cq command in RomeShell.

Does ANYONE have ANY idea what the different Alexandria's are referred to in RomeShell? Every other city, including the "original" Alexandria works just fine (sometimes with the "original" R:TW name), but there are too damn many Alexandrias. I've tried Alexandria_1, Alexandria_2, Alexandria_Herat, Alexandretta, and a few other combinations. Nothing so far. People are dying. HELP!

Cheats Ruin the games, Especailly good mods.
I think this could help you on a good lesson here bub. Don't use RomeShell. It'll be a lot more funnier when you do it on your own.

If you give a look at the imperial_campaign_regions_and_settlement_names.txt file in the text folder, you will find the internal name of all the Alexandrias. For instance:

{Herat} Alexandria Herat

The name that you must use in the shell is Herat (always the one in brackets)

And to make it a bit more specific. The location of the file is:
Rome - Total War/data/text if you`re using the no mod switch version of RTRPE. For the mod switch you would probably have a RTRPE before data in that path.
Also, don`t try to modify what`s in the brakets in that file.

is there a way to lower the culture difference even more other than smashing temples?

PS: And yes, it's VERY FUN smashing down all the temples. Reminds me of the bible XD

Certain buildings cannot be destroyed, and these will always give you a culture penalty.

The biggest thing you can do to improve the culture penalty is to grow the settlement to the next level and replace the palace. That will immediately remove about 25% of the penalty. After that, replacing all other buildings that you can will get the penalty down to 15%. The town square building, which is there to prevent crashes, prevents it from going any lower.
