Can i add biography text to leaders?

Sat Nov 03, 2012 3:12 pm

I would like to know if it´s possible to add text to different leaders showing an abbreviated bio. In the info panel there´s a section that looks like perfect for that (wich shows some text like "ldr_txt_GER_Kpreussen" and similar).

My modding knowledge is zero, and i have no idea where to look at. Maybe it´s more complex than a txt file in some folder but would thank any indication on how to do it.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

If PON works the same way than ACW you can find all text srings in file LocalStrings__XXX. csv (not Local_Strings_AGE) in the folder "Settings".
You can edit these csv files with Excel.

Hi there, a long time ago I created biographies for many of the playable nation leaders. I am planning to implement them into the mod I am working on.

Here is an XLS file of the finished biographies I have to date, believe it covers most existing leaders. Just copy these to the LocalStrings file Gatling is talking about.

It was designed for the release of the game, but took too long therefore 'missed the boat'.

Wow! Impressive list! Great job McNaughton!

@coturnix: If you don't play the english version of the game you have to copy the text in the right column C, D, E, F or G depending of which language you are using in the game. The variable names must remain in column A
