That's a clever idea.

hi everybody,

just 2 questions:

where to i put those new nation files?
is there a nation editor/if yes, where do i find it?

thx alot in advance,

Morbius

There is no nation editor, in order to edit a nation or create a new one you need to use a text editor (if you're using windows, notepad is a text editor). There is also a modding manual document in the "doc" folder of your dominions 3 directory that has all the commands you need to make a functioning mod.

In order to play a mod you put the .dm file and the folder containing all the image files into your dominions 3 "mods" folder.

PS morbius: best way to start modding is

1. read the mod manuals (in doc folder as mentioned)
2. keep the mod manual opened in background at all times (certainly when starting
3. DL some mod with plenty of stuff changed (a new nation mod will usually have most of the basic commands covered) and read it.
4. Start with copy pasting the basic commands from that mod (the first lines naming the mod, the nation settings etc, I still do that just to save some time) and then change them to fit your nation
5. just start deleting what you don't need.
6. add units when you need them

7 when in doubt ask on forum

but it's really pretty easy except for a few things you'll not encounter right away (shapeshifting has some wierd stuff in it)

Patience is a virtue. Or something.

Sombre when you are bored and waiting you are allowed to play with my dragon nation ...

Hey, no offense, but do you mind not doing that? This mod may be a vaporware pipe dream, but that's no reason to show up out of nowhere just to push yours. The joke of puffing your work at every opportunity is getting really old anyway.

[Sombre]

It's definitely not going to be vaporware. If you don't finish it then I will, but obviously I'd much rather you did it (the more people making quality warhammer nations the better imo).

You have good ideas and clearly you're up to the graphical task.

Thanks for the encouragement, I'll try my best.
