Originally an outgrowth of other projects for personal use and only renames of regions & characters. Now this has snowballed into balancing, new units, new buildings and other areas. Lots of new, Troy or modded units, factions modded, new settlement renames, character names, new flags and lots more. The aim is to be better than vanilla, imo the minor factions now feel like major factions. Originally not named Kendji's Flavour pack, not sure wheter to even publish this mod publicly, it was first named Kendji's Personal Overhaul (KPO).

What does this mod bring?

Leaders, Faction, Unit, Provincial & Settlement renames
  • Regions and Provinces have been overhauled, to be more historically accurate
    - Easier Access to that World map of u371 or updated map-placename video for u417 Here
  • Faction renames.
  • Added well over a hundred of new Personal names. To be exact, 2883 name entries bringing the total to 7138 now as of u449.
  • Unit Renames, to reflect the culture at hand. - For English unit names See here - For better Hebrew unit names See here

Goals?
In a nutshel, make every minor faction feel like an major, bring more historicity into the game, while filling in historical blanks with best guesses. In addition I hope to give the factions different 'personalities'. Most of Egyptian flags have similar motif setting them apart from Canaan as an example, while using symbols made by bronze age peoole where ever possible. Thus you could say it's an attempt to keep it 'lore friendly', not the most puristical portrayal, but hopefully still historical.

Credits
Thank you Avila for allowing me to use her Israelite units from the Israel mod.
Thank you Hori for allowing me to use place-names from his Renu Ma'a mod. It's not an full integration, but in Egypt particularly you can see his finger print very clearly. Thanks to Hori for allowing me to bug him with lots of ideas.
Thank you Xanth for allowing me to use his armour and shield tables. This mod is not an full integration of his work into this mod, so for the full Xanth batte experience, please check out his mod. :)

Special thanx to the people in this
-thread who helped with name suggestions
-thread who helped with some of the faction buildings you see ingame
-Seti for advice on flags and other assets
-Kavkazian for advice on Israeli names
-I ran into an title slot issue and noticed that Alex Zhao had made an similar mod, which allowed be to reverse engineer an bugfix for my mod from his title slot mod. He didn't directly help me, but I was scratching my self in the head for a while, so his work was of help. :)

Check out my sources used.

If anyone wants to use elements of this mod/my work, give proper credit back to this mod and it's creator. Also, don't sell my work without permission pls.

KPO (Kendji's flavour pack) is not an startpos mod. You should always have only one such mod in your load order. Since this isn't one, it means it may be compatible with some (ofc not all) startpos mods.Examples are mods adding city slots, community bug fix mod, family tree mod, Radious etc. These usually don't work with each other due to this 'startpos' thing. So you should combine KPO with only one such mod, not several.
Another place where there might be incompitability is between this mod and other unit mods. Especially if they add troy units.

known issues:
-Atm, there is an random end turn crash that occurs seldom, had maybe 2-3 crashes in total per campaign so far ~1% of total turns of an 200-300 turn campaign. Most of the time it is fixed by relaunching the save and end turning again, sometimes a few restarts is needed. Atm no real fix, I suspect it is related to the recent name list changes, where some factions in effect have two parallel name lists and that the engine may not always know how to handle it, expecting names from one namelist. However I'm not sure in the diagnose. :)

RPFM:
-Make sure your RPFM is setup correctly, it has references to where the games are in the settings and you have generated your cache. If so you don't need to manually open up pack files from the game folders but can just use RPFM to import tables you need. :)

If you only wana add vanilla units its essentially only a few tables you need.

Must:
-building_units_allowed_tables to add units to certain factions and their buildings.

-units_to_groupings_military_permissions_tables to give permission to the faction to have said units, without this table your assigned unit in said building, will not show up.

Lookup:
-land_units_tables to check what units exist in the db.
-building_culture_variants_tables for lookup buildings, if their universal available to all or assigned to an faction and thus which building to use.

Optional:
-frontend_faction_top_units_tables if you want to show the unit under the faction in the main menu.

-units_custom_battle_permissions_tables if you want to give permission to custom battle faction to have the unit :)

Hi, I've seen that you're a very good modder. I've tried to add some units from the vanilla game to the minor factions using the pack file manager, but I haven't figured out how to do it. Could you explain how to do it?
Kendji  [készítő] aug. 9., 12:06 
Not surprising :), both mods change a lot in the game

I tried with Radious, get a CTD upon trying to start the game.
Kendji  [készítő] aug. 9., 0:55 
Never tried, so dunno, but I'd expect not and would be surprised if they were.

is this mod compatible with radious?
Kendji  [készítő] júl. 29., 20:23 
Yeah I feel the vanilla History telling is a bit stale and many cities feel generic. Adding a few building can make it stand out. :)

I also must say I love the effort and time put into this mod, the unique buildings and icon changes are great for the game.

Well, the thing is, the patch of the Tigris between the Diyala and Lower Zab rivers are in generally less surveyed and excavated than the patches north and south. Its between the posh cities of Assur and Tintir/Babilim. Dur-Amurru is, I think, was the provincial capital. Ekallatum has more surviving history and better name recognition. Tbh idk which to pick, I might end up flipping a coin when the next update becomes ready :D. Both could be or not on the spot. Both have + & - to them. :)
