Unable to change faction culture?

**Maltacus** · January 01, 2011, 09:29 PM

Modding the latest RR/RC version, I don't know how to change a factions culture. I would like to make the teutons have eastern_european culture to hear the music from the teutonic campaign.

What do I need to do to hear the eastern european music?

I changed the "culture" lines (tested with some other factions as well) in "descr_sm_factions" but it is apparently not enough. If I have understood the sound tutorials correctly it should be enough, but no.

I believe in the data/world/maps/base/ folder is a file called
"descr_sounds_music_types" or something along those lines.
What you are looking for is in there.

But that file only alters what music is played on the battlefield, depending on the location, doesn't it? I am looking for a way to change the campaign map music.

I might be wrong, but I think that affects campaign music too;
I had your exact same problem a while back with the HRE, and I wanted
Teutonic music; I changed that file I mentioned, and AFAIR, it worked.

It couldn't hurt, right?

EDIT: Before you start up SS again with the changed music, backup your
events.idx/dat and music.idx/dat in your data/sounds folder, and then rename them
so that the engine has to make new ones, hopefully with the changed music implemented.

It could actually hurt my installation, sadly. I have tried deleting those files a couple of times and they rebuild but the game crashes upon launching.

EDIT: Tried it out, CTD upon launching. Thanks anyway

Wait, this was for RR/RC?
That explains it, I could change the music on SS6.3, but not the compilation on top
of 6.2.
Sorry about that, it should work, but it for some odd reason just doesn't, at least not
in RR/RC.

Since this is the RR/RC forum, one should assume so...

I was posting on autopilot.

Hahaha. It's also the very first thing in his first post. Beware the auto-pilot! There was a guy who bought an RV, and while driving down the highway, he turned on cruise control and went to the bathroom. Then, after the obvious happened, he sued the RV dealership for not having told him that cruise control is not auto-pilot.
