I've finally found out that the root cause of the date issue is the replacement of the original file. In fact, if I edit the original file (i.e. the one originally installed by the setup.exe), everything works fine. If I replace it with another file with the same name, even one absolutely identical ...

I've been finally able to obtain the desired result without the date issue. I have edited the original LocalStrings_ACW.csv file by using an hexadecimal editor... I think I will have to use it to modify that file, even if it makes the job more complicated. I did not understand ayway what the other e...

Hi Gray, thanks for your help. I've downloaded the DB zip file and modified the LocalStrings_ACW35a.xls file contained in it using Excel and saved it in CSV format, but the result has been exactly the same as before.

Instead, it remains every time I relaunch AACW, until I reinstall the game. I also tried to find if there is some other AACW system fi...

I modified that file (and only that one) by using a CSV editor, adding a few words to an existing event text, before launching the game and starting a new campaign, . The modified text, and all other messages and events, are shown...

Hi, I've modified the content of file LocalStrings_ACV.csv file using a CSV editor, in order to slightly change the text of an event. Actually, the new string appear correctly in the game but, regardless of the fact that I play the April 1861 campaign, the initial date appears to be "July 1861" (no ...
