This is my first tutorial so please bare with me here :-D
Now then. increasing unit size is in fact one of the easiest things to mod in ntw.
You will need
a computer
an installed copy of ntw
pack file manager
step 1
open data.pack with pack file manager. this is can be found at
program files/steam/steam apps/common/napoleon total war/data
when opened, you will see a tree kind of thing on the left. open the bit that says db by clivking on the little plus.
scroll down to unit stats land tables.
open this
right click on on unit stats land which will appear beneath.
click extract. chose directory. hit enter.
step 2
were finished with data.pack now. so click file then new. a window will appear asking something like make pack files relative to which directory. Navigate to the folder that you just extracred unit stats land to. select the folder. click ok.
now the tree will have gone , and a lonely untitled.pack will lie there, the seed, if youlike.
right click beneath this and select add file.
navigate to the unit stats land that you extracted, select it and hit okay.
Now you will see db has reappeared. we are growing our own pack tree. I love this analargy!
step 3
click db, then unit stats land tables, then select unit stats land. A large table will appear on the right. There are a couple of ways to edit this, but the simplest is to use pfm itself. Look at the table, and you will see a column labelled unit size. Also, for cavalry and horse artillery therr is number of horses, and number of guns for artillery. Each unit in the game has these three columns. Which unit this is for is on the very left of the table. Keep in mind that for artillery, you should have six men to one gun. Edit to your hearts content.
step 4
before saving, weneed to format the pack file. To do this right click under the tree, choose pack file type, then for this mod, choose movie. then click file and save.save into your napoleon data folder.
Step 5
since this is a movie pack, there is no need to modify our user.script.txt. launch your game. test. enjoy. Bare in mind that massively increasing sizes may result in a laggy game, so you may need to turn down the graphics.
My mass military mod is an example of this type of mod. Can be downloaded from here at tw centre and from strategy informer. Dont tell me the artillery is wrong lol its on my mind to fix this.
You can also modify things such as accuracy, morale, abilities and much more in unit stats land by scrolling along and finding the correct coloumn.
Thats all folks!
Happy tree growing!
