    Default No HRE for Custom Battle in HBB?

    Same as the topic, Several factions are not in the faction panel while playing custom battle. Then is there anyway to get them back? any file to edit like factions in grand campaign lists?

    And HBB Crash back to the desktop after a few times of clicking faction symbols while choosing the factions in Grand Campaign. Anything to do with it?

    And if anyone can tell me how to scroll the camera more closer to my unit so I can view them like what was shown in the intro videos, as "restrict camera" helps little.

    Thanks !

    Welcome to the forum!
    There are only a certain number of factions available for custom battles, as well as campaign play. To enable HRE for custom battles, follow this path to the proper file:
    1. C:\Program Files\SEGA\Medieval II Total War\ mods\kingdoms_grand_campaign_mod\data
    2. In your data file, find descr_sm_factions.txt
    3. Open with Notepad
    4. Scroll down to hre (the third faction from the top) and look for the entry line: custom_battle_availability
    5. Change No to Yes
    6. Change another faction you do not wish to use to No. Remember; only a certain number can be used. With all the additional factions, we must sacrifice somewhere. Sounds fair enough.
    7. Save the file and exit.
    8. Enjoy the HRE in custom battles.

    And HBB Crash back to the desktop after a few times of clicking faction symbols while choosing the factions in Grand Campaign. Anything to do with it?
    This is a common problem. Simply don't do that. The faction maps are the culprit, I believe, and deleting them would fix this issue. But that's like placing a field bandage on a scratch. Just don't scroll through so many factions. After a time or three you'll have read them all, anyhow.

    I hope this helped, though I'm unable to answer the third part about the camera. If I'm not mistaken, I think that has to do with the cinematic editor.

    Enjoy your time with this wonderful mod and again, welcome.

    Bang on info on all counts mate, perfect description on how to swap factions for custom battles and correct about the custom maps for the large number of factions( i did in install instructions of HHB state to remove all custom map pics as when you have done that you can click on factions all day long and it wont (shouldnt lol ) crash .

    Vanillia med2 used 22 factions tuetonic campaign used 28 HHB uses 31 sadly more factions if you keep the custom maps( the picture of where there faction is on the map just for the selection screen) it crashes plus rep from me for helping people
