Which files to edit to play as Dark Lord of...

[kalabot]

to see how the campaign goes and who ends up winning ?


adding papals to playable wont let me start campaign, so what else ?

[Black_ice_Spain]

add another vanilla faction manually to the map in a rebel settlement and then just get killed? idk xD

[el Cid]

It should just be easy with descr_strat , are you using Vista? This could be the answer then.

[axnsan]

Try this

Add portugal to playable in descr_strat.
Search for wildlands, this should come up

settlement
{
	level town
	region Wildlands_Province

	year_founded 0
	population 1200
	plan_set default_set
	faction_creator slave
	building
	{
		type core_building wooden_pallisade
	}
}

Delete it.
Then right under

; >>>> start of factions section <<<<

copy this:

faction	portugal, balanced smith
ai_label	islam
denari 	10000
denari_kings_purse	1700

settlement
{
	level town
	region Wildlands_Province

	year_founded 0
	population 1200
	plan_set default_set
	faction_creator slave
	building
	{
		type core_building wooden_pallisade
	}
}

character	Adanion, named character, male, leader, age 31,  x 382, y 339
traits Factionleader 1 , LoyaltyStarter 1 , GoodCommander 1 , ReligionStarter 1 , GoodAmbusher 1 , KindRuler 2 , StrategyChivalry 1
army
unit		SE Bodyguard		exp 2 armour 0 weapon_lvl 0

Save&close, then delete world/maps/base/map.rwm

This will allow you to play as portugal in an unreachable settlement.

OMG,axnsan,isn't it too complicated why not just modify descr_strat? move papal states to the list of playable...
data->world->maps->campaign->imperial_campaign

[kalabot]

Guys guys, please read my post...

adding papals to playable wont let me start campaign, so what else ?

I'm gona try what Axnsan said.

[Beregond]

sorry,I haven't noticed this sentence..that's strange...why could it be so

[kalabot]

And btw. I'm using W7 which is like vista, I'm not a tard who can't remove the lock from making me unable to save stuff in folders :p. But yeah I won't spam anymore untill I tried what axn said

[Muffer Nl]

You can't play as the pope, what Axnsn siad will only drop you into an unreachable settlement without any troops available to you.

[axnsan]

Yeah. And that's what he wants. To observe how the game goes without the player's intervention.

[Gothic Revenge]

Isn't it a bit boring just sitting there and pressing "end turn" for 100s of times ???
Have fun......

[axnsan]

There's always AutoClicker

[Muffer Nl]

is there anyway to make a game completely controlled by the ai?

[DisgruntledGoat]

is there anyway to make a game completely controlled by the ai?

There is a console command that allows you to simulate games. Its the same as the one used in RTW. Can't remember it off the top of my head. haven't used it for years.

[axnsan]

Yes. Start a hotseat with console enabled and type in the console "control your_faction"

eg, if you play gondor, type control sicily
mordor - control england

etc

[King Canute]

doesnt that mean you will control that faction?

[axnsan]

If you type control the faction you already control, it'll be given to AI and you'll control no faction.

[Muffer Nl]

Can you still see the game?

[axnsan]

Yes. But the turns go on and on unless you open the console and give yourself control over a faction.


Why don't ye just try it out?

[Muffer Nl]

Well I am not on my TATW pc right now
