Changing a Region's Religion

[King Siegfried]

Hey guys, I have been playing Third Age: Total War as Arnor, then decided I wanted to tweak the Arnor roster. So I did. But that meant starting the campaign over, and I didn't feel like playing 85 turns as Eriador just to play as Arnor again. So instead, I decided to spend almost the same amount of time modding the game to let me play Arnor instead of Eriador.

Everything went fine. I had a couple troubles along the way, but I figured them all out more or less in a timely manner. Except for one: I cannot change the religion of the regions that Arnor starts off with. Since the units require, for instance, 20% of the faction's religion, and the region starts with 0%, it takes forever just to get the unit.

I've searched the Mod Workshop here and come across several tutorials and threads on changing religion, but I can't quite figure it out. I've gone to world\maps\base\descr_regions.txt and changed the number totals there, but in-game it doesn't change.

Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

since changing descr_regions have you deleted the relevant map.rwm and re-started the campaign?

King Siegfried: You need to do this in the ‘descr_regions’ file:

Before:

Bree_Province
	Bree
	turks
	English_Rebels
	100 100 100
	greenway, forest, bree, crusade, no_pirates
	5
	5
	religions { catholic 7 orthodox 13 islam 10 northmen 60 heretic 0 numenorian 10 }

After:

Bree_Province
	Bree
	turks
	English_Rebels
	100 100 100
	greenway, forest, bree, crusade, no_pirates
	5
	5
	religions { catholic 7 orthodox 13 islam 10 northmen 10 heretic 0 numenorian 60 }

You also need to delete the ‘map.rwm’ file for your changes to work.
