    Default Editing unit stats

    Is it impossible to edit unit stats in the LTC mod?
    I tried both the export_descr_unit and the xexport_descr_unit file in the in the SEGA/MTW2/landstoconquer/data folder, but the changes I make don't show up in-game.

    Well what exactly are you changing(and yes you need to edit the export_descr_unit.txt file).

    I increased the missile attack and range of longbowmen.
    In-game, their missile attack is still 8, and it seems their range didn't change either.

    This is really strange.
    It seems that despite running the game using the LTC icon on the desktop, it launches vanilla

    Luckily I wasn't far into my campaign yet, because I only downloaded LTC yesterday.

    I had a look at the LTC changelog today, and saw a lot of stuff on it that I never noticed in my campaign.
    I compared the changelog to my 'supposedly LTC' game, and noticed that it actually is just vanilla.

    I installed the mod using the Lands_To_Conquer_v2.1.exe file, and run it using the Lands to Conquer v2.1 icon on the desktop, so I have no idea what went wrong.

    Try reinstalling the mod.

    I uninstalled and then re-installed it, but it still doesn't work

    I found out what caused the problem.
    The LTC install creates 2 new folder in the MTW2 folder: landstoconquer & landstoconquer[log].

    The landstoconquer.cfg file pointed to the landstoconquer[log] folder, instead of to the landstoconquer folder.

    I never changed anything, so no clue how this happened.

    ? That is odd. My advice is reinstall both M2TW, then LTC, and if things are still messed up copy everything from landstoconquer[log] into landstoconquer, and make a new .cfg file that has this in it:

    [features]
    mod = landstoconquer

    I fixed it by changing mod = landstoconquer[log] to mod = landstoconquer in the .cfg file, and it works correctly now
    Thanks for the help.
