Hi lads, I'm freshman to modding.
I was finding a way to make Mysterious Force selectable for playing in 1980 (Making them playable per se isn't a problem. Just change AI control from 01 to 00 for Mysterious Force in BTL, select a random country, then restart the conquest for the game to detach control from the selected country and only leave control for Mysterious Force. But you lose the ability to select and play as other countries).
After hours of fiddling around in BTLs and JSONs trying to pop the selection up and failed (btw, if anyone knows how to, please tell), my approach was creating a clone of Mysterious Force (country_49) with all the necessary additions in stringtable_en.ini, tacticalmap.xml, image_flags_hd.xml, a Mystery Force camp 1 clone in CountrySettings.json, ConquerCountrySettings.json and remove the original Mystery Force from 1980 by changing its ConquerID in ConquerCountrySetting.json to 5 and the clone one to 4. Then I proceed to change the country hex code 30 of Mysterious Force in conquest4.btl to 31 (49 to hex is 31), save everything and launch the game. Selection was fine, the game recognised the territory ownership of the new Mysterious Force clone in the Conquest selection screen, but when I press start the game crashes.
Any idea what is happening in my case?
