    Default Having Trouble with Export_Descr_Buildings

    I just started a new Teutonic campaign after making lots of changes to the units and buildings files. I've done this a lot before with RTW and vanilla M2TW so I don't think I'm making any silly mistakes. Anyway, as soon as the campaign started, I noticed the changes I made to the units had taken effect. But the changes to the buildings were not there. I thought it was no problem because sometimes you have to End Turn once for the building changes to take effect. On turn 2 all of the changes were still missing.

    I thought maybe I made some syntax error in export_descr_buildings, which was causing the game to revert to the default file. So I go back to the default file, make a SINGLE change just for testing purposes, and it's still not there in the game. So I don't think it was a syntax error.

    This seems really weird to me for export_descr_units to be working but export_descr_buildings to not be working. Does anybody have any idea what could be wrong here?

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    If any change is working in any file then the mod is running ok and post the EDB changes you are trying to do.

    Well the first time around I changed a lot of things including public order bonuses, free upkeep, recruitment abilities, and the effectiveness of churches. After that didn't work, the second time around when I was doing it purely for testing purposes, the only thing I changed is I added 3 free upkeep to Level 3 Castles.

    free_upkeep bonus 3

    I checked in-game and it wasn't there on its description.

    Did you add the following to your config file?

    file_first=true

    Yup. I got my config and batch files straight from one of Ishan's posts.

    Edit: I was having issues before where I unpacked all the files before patching the game up, so then I had to unpack all my files again and overwrite the old files. I thought that might be causing some sort of issue so I decided to just start over and reinstalled everything. After patching up, I used unpack_all. Then I used unpack for all 4 kingdoms campaigns. Then I re-downloaded the batch and config files from the post I linked to above and put them back in. Now neither my E_D_U or E_D_B is working. I just wanted to come on here and check to make sure I didn't miss any steps before I give up.
