I'd like to play as a nation which is not listed. How can I rename my empire? Do I need to build a scenario? How do I rename empires there?

Thanks in advance

Its not that hard really........I just added Atlantis to my list. You need to edit 2 files.....
civilisation.txt
civ_str.txt
Back these up, just in case

Open civilisation.txt and at the top is this:


## Civilisation.txt
43 ## Number of Civs in list (add as grows)

Yours should be 42, just increase it to however many civs you are adding. I added 1 so its now 43.
Now, copy and paste the following to the bottom of the file, should be after Nicaraguans.
Then just change all references to Atlantis and Atlantian to whatever you want the civ to be.
But, leave this part as is:
CIV_EMISSARY_PHOTO NICARAGUAN_DIPLOMAT_PHOTO
Not sure what it is for, but it caused crashes when I changed it. I dont think it does anything as I dont see the use of photos in the game anyway. May be a holdover from CTP1.


ATLANTIAN #43
