yeah, if you don't plan on modding, don't bother with RPFM
you probably first need to link it to your game folder in the settings
and then you need to have an idea of what you want to build, which I learned by canibalazing mods from the workshop using the workshop items folder

i see, thank to have try (couldn't even make RPFM work properly with the data any way, still give me "missing or invalide extra data provided : "schema"")

yeah then its purged, bringing it back requires a complete overhaul similar to the mod I shared.
Considering its only a few settlements with this rule and a minor effect i strongly recommend simply using the mod i shared

after checking the wiki in tww3 they are 9 elven collonie (more might be added, they are one/twos in ind in the lore)

well they are special only in tww2, in tww3 they are just a normal non forest settlement, and they are more elven collonie, by memory, one near the thart of the old lady of kislev (and starting point of alith anar in tww2), they are 3 in lustria (one in est, south and west cost), 3 insouth where start emeric, one in the bad land as you said, one where start teclis and if they are more i forgot

one second
is the colony even available to the wood elves?
because i only remember one, which is the one in the badlands

also, like when i tryed alone, i still have problem, but discord seen better to communicate

Give me 1s ill be back and then ill tell you which you want to change
Or i can sens you the gile directly if you have a discord

RPFM installed

i do not know if it's still in the document of the game

well, i hope with your help i could do it

what you want is very simple I think, but I'm not sure if wef_ colony 123 exist anymore in the building tables

ho, RPFM, i tryed, but i had difficulty with it

RPFM ?

hm I mean you could do that quite easily most likely, but its extremely minor
I can tell you how to do it if you want, you'll need to have RPFM

not the same (yes, i looked into similar mod), but they where unique city type for elven collonies in tww3 only hight elf have them, the screen shot should show you what it looked like https://www.reddit.com/r/totalwar/comments/100ute2/im_sad_they_changed_the_elven_colonie_for_the/

@wolfFRdu64/Lounna
have you considered this mod?

hi, since you put back building from tww1, could you bring back elven collonie for wood elf as they where in tww2 ?

@Nothing. Thanks for changing it back.

@evertale23
done, fixed

Ill check

Thanks for doing this, but i think the "melee attack +1" should have been "weapon strength +1%" just like what you did in warhammer 2 version of this mod, not sure if you changed it intentionally.

What are they in vanilla? Is the difference huge / non existent?

thanks for doing this appreciate it
