it does if you follow the instructions, use the proper slashes ("/") on your folder name, recompile the code and reload the modules/restart the game before you start a new game

yes. Why do you think that a mistep on your end means this guide does not work?

Keep in mind this guide is about creating new factions, much more complex than "rename a existing faction"

you forgot the / in the end

your files are probably inside your Modules folder named sth like dykjozoparties.txt

include your new faction on module_factions.py
run build_module.bat
use the faction on other files. Do not use it until you have compiled the code
--> if you forgot to do it... open file ID_factions.py and include it there manually (this once). Increase the number (ID), it must be a increment of 1 in each line

Code:

fac_player_supporters_faction = 14
fac_kingdom_1 = 15
fac_kingdom_2 = 16
fac_kingdom_3 = 17
fac_kingdom_4 = 18
fac_kingdom_5 = 19
fac_kingdom_6 = 20

# your new factions should be here!!!!!!!!

fac_kingdoms_end = 21

thank you

nuvasek · May 29, 2016

can i ask why is the custom faction always getting swadians? the reinforcement a,b,c have been changed to custom troops yet the custom faction keeps getting swadian troops
EDIT: lords are hiring swadians, villager volunteers are swadians... wtf? i followed the steps but idk
nvm figured it out

How do you open .brf files?

this is a guide on factions, and you are asking about .brf? Not sure how we got here... anyway, visit the tools section of the Forge and download OpenBRF

rohanrtkurup@gmail.com · May 30, 2016

the banner section asks you to edit .brfs

rohanrtkurup@gmail.com · May 30, 2016

1. By the way thanks for replying so quickly
2. there are no arms_e1, arms_e3- arms_f21

use OpenBRF

Yes I have no idea what the arms are

I did everything else that the tutorial says, and im stuck with a wierd error. the lords all have the veagir flag, and their heraldry is pitch black.

EDIT: fixed the veigir flag issue, but the heraldry problem remains. I also found a random lord with the king ragnar's flag... hmmm

PPQ_Purple · Nov 9, 2016

How would I go about using this to create a culture without a faction attached? I am basically talking about something you can change into during gameplay but that no faction starts out with.

culture and factions are different things. Warband puts them under the same umbrella (module_factions.py), but that is a mistake on the conceptual level for MBScript.

For example: VC has nationalities (anglo-saxon, norse, etc), religions (Christian, pagan) and kingdoms (the actual factions described in the guide). So a NPC has a kingdom, a religion and a origin. And kingdom and religion can change along the campaign. Origin and religion are stored on slots, while the kingdom uses the operations for factions.

So think of this guide as "how to add a new kingdom 101", that may help clarify things.

With that said: you need to explain further what you meant and what you want to do. That way we will know if you should visit the Q&A thread (your question is unrelated to the guide and this thread), or if is something already part of the guide, and so on.

In that case I'll just fiddle with it my own way. The title completely confused me into thinking the two were somehow linked and my way of making it work was an ugly hack.

Wlodowiec · Feb 10, 2017

What about if I dont want to create a new settlement but using an old one (Praven, Tulga, etcetc) for a new faction from the start?

Somebody · Feb 13, 2017

Did you read the part where it tells you to use

Code:

(call_script, "script_give_center_to_faction_aux", "p_town_1", "fac_kingdom_4"),

to assign towns to factions?
