Problem for creating new religion

[Telmudjin]

Hi !

I would like to create a mod of Ancient Europa and I want to change (or edit) the religions of the game.
I know how to create a new civilization, add ressources, etc.

But here, I've a problem and I hope you can help me :

At first, I tried to simply editing the religions (text.xml and art.xml) : Buddhism, confucianism, taoism and hinduism (to Pesedjet, Aesir, Mesopotamian and Olympian).

The game is running properly, the civilopedia is ok but when I try to play : The game crash or sometimes, it works but the letters of the game (Name of city, ...) are changing by my news icons/pics !

So, I tried to create/add a new religion (with all XML).
The civilipodia is also ok but now, the game is simply crashing !

Could you explain me what is wrong in my mod, what am I supposed to do, etc ?
Thank you for help !


NB : Sorry for my very (very) bad English I'm not english native.

I've never done it and this tutorial is old, but it might help. Good luck.

Alternatively you could download a mod that does add religions and reverse engineer it.

Both problems you are describing are very odd. Especially editing the text should be very safe. Perhaps more detailed descriptions would be helpfull, when the crashed do happen.

Or you can have a look at JARM, what files you need to edit for new religions. They are surprisingly many.

Did you edit the res files? If you have even a pixel out of place in them it will mess up all the text and icons in the game.

All of the above, plus if it crashes right away, it means there is an artdefines problem.
