Barbarian Huge Cities in RTW

**ahmed5** · April 18, 2006, 03:53 AM

Hi,

How do i allow barbarians get large and huge cities? Do i simply add the buildings i want and it would automatically allow it?

Here's a list of the stuff i need to change, could someone clarify and tell me how to do some of these?

- Allow large/huge cities (dunno how to do yet)
- Add the buildings from BI and then add the recruitable units in export descr buildings - pretty easy i guess
- Change the descriptions in the text folder - this is easy
- Add the images for the buildings (no idea where they are)
- Add the textures/models for the settlements on campaign map (no idea how to do this)

anything else needed to add/know?

Unfortunately it can't be done, the barbarian culture in RTw is still hardcoded to not allow the large and huge city levels.

Borsooks mod can do it and it works, i decided not to install the mod becuase it's for 1.4 and i don't want half the stuff in it. So i decided to copy some features from it.

Borsooks mod runs using the -mod command line i believe, making features from the BI.exe available in RTw, you could do it in RTW, but you would need to create a new culture based on the greeks or something, then give it all the barbnarina cultue image graphics.

Didn't realise it would work in RTw. The building pics are packed in RTw, you will need to unpack them.

Cards are packed in ui_1.pak, after unpacking them, the path to them is:

"Data\UI\BARBARIAN or ROMAN or EASTERN,...\BUILDINGS

and

"Data\UI\BARBARIAN or ROMAN or EASTERN,...\BUILDINGS\CONSTRUCTION"

If you e.g. want to add paved roads from Romans to Barbarians, you copy "ROMAN_PAVED_ROADS" (sp) into BUILDINGS\BARBARIAN folder and rename it to "BARBARIAN_PAVED_ROADS"

The same with the files in "CONSTRUCTION" folder.
