Desperate! Altering the campaign

[ChrisJ]

I just want to know if its possible to make India(Mughalistan) and Germany formed and selectable in the 1861 campaign. I mainly play the GC so its not a big deal if I modify another campaign. How can I do this?

I REALLY appreciate anyone who can help me!

for germany just go to the Scenrio files "C:\Program Files\Strategy First\Victoria\scenarios\GC" and create German file, and give it all the provinces u want it to have.

for example

country = {
	tag = u00
	capital = 817
	culture = { type = north_italian }
	religion = catholic
	literacy = 0.035
	primitive = no
	
	voting_rights = none
	press_rights = state_press 
	political_parties = right_to_ban 
	trade_unions = none 
	public_meetings = yes 
	maximum_workhours = 0 
	minimum_wages = none 
	safety_regulations = none 
	health_care = none 
	unemployment_subsidies = none 
	pension_funds = none
	
	ruling_party = 284001	

	government = monarchy 
	executive_designation = laws_by_decree
	establishment = traditional_academic
	party_system = one_party
	national_value = order
	
	cash = 1000
	
	diplomacy = { 
    	relation = { tag = POR value = 100 }
    	relation = { tag = SPA value = 100 }
    	relation = { tag = HOL value = 100 }
    	
}


   ownedprovinces = {
	816 817
	   }
   controlledprovinces = {
	816 817
	}
   nationalprovinces = {
   	816 817
	}
resources = {
		###########
		#Raw Mtrl #
		###########
		iron = 10
		################
		#Consumer Goods#
		################
		wool = 30

		}
}

edit the Owned country, Controlled country, national province, culture, capital and anything else u want changed. (It be best if u just copy and paste the INC file in 1914 scenrio or something)

If u name the INC file "Germany" go to C:\Program Files\Strategy First\Victoria\scenarios and then click the scnerio file u want "1836" for example.

go down to the bottom where u c "include = "scenarios/gc/Courland.inc""

and add (include = "scenarios/gc/Germany.inc") to the bottom

and then go up through them and remove all the other german states that your country will occupy.

if your country doesn't fully occupy another country go back to "C:\Program Files\Strategy First\Victoria\scenarios\GC" and edit the c\other countried controlled, owned provinces"

i think dats about it

It's not very hard to do but you must be careful.
Let me tell you what i do.
1stly i load the Victoria game , start the GC and use the cheat; "showid"
In the bottom screen in the message box you will see if you point with your mouse the province's id number. write down every id number of the provinces you are intrested to be part of germany for example. See all the states that will be absorbed into germany and write down their names. if there are provinces you want from a country but the country will only lose territory and not be absorbed into germany write down which provinces you want from them seperately in order to remember what you want from each country. For exaple Germany has national claims on austria. write down which provinces you want to take from austria.
2nd. go to the 1836.eug file in the scenario folder and open it with the notepad. In the bottom of this file you will see a list of what files includes the scenario when it loads. You will see a list like this;
include file "holstein.inc"
include file "krakow.inc"
remove all the .inc files of the countries you want to erase.

3rd go to the to the confg file and open the "world names" file. search for the tags (initials) of the countries you have erased. for example poland is "POL"
Write down the tags.

4th now open again the 1836.eug file and in the beginning you will see a group of tags alltogether, these are the countries that can be selected in CK.
Find the tags you have noted before and erase them. BE CAREFUL. make sure you leave the proper spaces between the tags left.

5th in the scenarios folder inside GC folder you will find all the csv and inc files that are used in the scenario. open for example the austria,inc file with the note pad and remove the provices you want to take from austria, If for example you want to remove the provinces 887 899 go where it says;
national provinces = { 899 887 855 223 .....ect} and delete 899 887.
then remove the same provinces from the "controled provinces" too.
Search a bit down if austria has a factory in the provinces 899 887.
if you find a factory remove it too. Now go to the bottom and look at the armies that austria has. somewhere it says the armie's location. if austria has an army in the provinces 899 887 remove them or change their province number.Repeat this for every other country you want to take their lands from.

6th create the germany's inc file. I suggest you copy prussia's inc file and rename it; "germany,inc". add one or two provinces at a time and load the game to see if it loads well or you have done something wrong. Save your progress regularly in order to avoid doing this from the start if a big prblem occurs. BUT.
BEFORE YOU LOAD GERMANY FOR THE FIRST TIME DO Nr 7 step first.

7th. go to the 1836.eug file again and open it. go the list of tags and add "GER' so that germany can be selected when you stert the game.
AFTER this go to he bottom of the file again and add ; include file "germany.inc " to the list off the .inc files that will be included in the game .Now the game knows what provinces germany owns.

I guess that was it roughly.
Good luck!

ps. send me your files when you finish
