Modify saved map to allow mod

Post by Slann »

In this case, i'm playing Return From Captivity and wanted to modify a saved file to allow xp modification mod. At first, i created a new map with the mod actived, saved and copied the differences, but this method produced crashes, (maybe because some setup that had to happen at the beggining?). I'd like to know if this change is possible by just modifying the saved file. Thanks

It should mean finding place where scenario events are, adding those from xp mod, and also all the variables that are usually created from settings.

Adding stuff to scenario before start is much easier, I did it all the time with 1.10 that did not support modifications.
