How do I add traits to other factions' characters? I've tried everything, but the console says it can't find the character. Please give an example!

This can be tricky, depending on the character's name. I seem to have more sucess since I add the v1.01 AND v1.02 patches. Otherwise I could only adjust another faction's character if he had a single name (i.e. Roger) For multiple names you will need quotation marks around the name, and sometimes an underscore if it's a three-part name or more. Example (I'm gonna use the leader of Venice at the beginning of a campaign as my example):
give_trait "Domenico Selvo" BadCommander 5
If it's a three-part name you may need the underscore (this next name is totally made up):
give_trait "Louis de_Dijon" BadCommander 5
Try different combinations if you get the "character not found" message, you may stumble across the right name. These cheats also apply to your own faction as far as two and three-part names. (i.e. If you started as Venice, you would need the quotes to give Domenico a trait)
Just select the character and type "give_trait this "
It's very easy to just take a fast look and type in the title and name and the characterm but the only what you need to put in his name is his name..
Ex: you got a character with name Prince Guy
give_trait "Guy" BadCommander 5
that's how it will look:)
be very accurate with the capitals in their name, if you don't get the capitals right it won't work)

How do you unlock knew countries?

Aye, for the gods demand! Attack and exloit the enemy, till there is no more! Slughter and kill the women and children....none left alive...

Im basically saying that if you destroy that faction, it shall be unlocked.


EXAMPLE: England destroys Scotland. I play as Scotland.

If you cant figure it out, see a doctor.
All you do is win the game once and all the factions are unlocked... Enjoy
You can complete the game to unlock the factions, but there is a much simpler way of unlocking them - see the video below

My "descr_strat" is "descr_strat.txt." and it keeps sayin it wont save because it is "text only", what should I do?

First, let's make sure you don't mess up the original. Open up a blank Notepad sheet and copy/paste the entire original onto it. Save it as "Descr_stratORIGINAL" or something so you know what it is save it in MyDocuments or something. Might be a good idea to right click on the file afterwards and check the "Read-Only" box so you can't mess it up. Next, find the icon for the descr_strat.txt in the Medieval 2 folder, not your new copy, the one that comes with the game. Right-click on this icon and UN-check the "Read-Only" box. You should now be able to change what you like. If you change soemthing that does not agree with the game, when you go to start a mission it will move you back one window. That's how you know there's a mistake in the descr_strat. If that happens, it's best to find your copy in the MyDocuments folder, copy/paste it over top of the whole descr_strat in the Medival 2 folder and start over.
If from the netherlands so it looks different for me/ but just right click on the map you want to change then select the option to see the qualities (that came out of a translation machine )) and there you should be able to turn "Read-Only" off and then you can change everything, but when you're done you should turn it back, becaus it is possible the game turns it back automatically. good luck )
Or you can just right click on the text document, go to properties and uncheck the read-only option where it says attributes.

How do you get gunpowder units in medival total war 2?

If you want to cheat to get gunpowder units early in the game, then look around on this forum because several people have posted about "artillary elephants" and "rocket launchers". However, in the game, you must wait quite a few years until gunpowder is "discovered". It will come across like the windmill, Mogol invasion, compass, rudder, etc. scientific discovery boxes on the left of the screen. I forget the exact date, but it's not too long AFTER the Mongol invasion.
If you want to get units in the beginning of a game you need a City/Castle and the CONSOLE. Go to Console by clicking or pressing ~ button on your keybaord and the console will come up. This is my example since I play the English.
create_units London "Arqubuisers" 4 9 3 3
If you the others like Spain with Musketeers type in
create_units (Spains capitol I dont really know) "Musketeers" 4 9 3 3
Well if you want to know some Units to create I can give you some, For example Two units in the game that they use, Handgunners, Arquebusiers, and Musketeers

They are actual names of them and will work perfectly to create

create_unit London "Arquebusiers" 4 9 3 3
create_unit London "Musketeers" 4 9 3 3
create_unit Jerusalem "Handgunners" 4 9 3 3

What does this mean?

A1:
If you're asking about the "this" command for the cheat console, it means literally what it reads. In practice, it's used to identify a character that you have selected with the cursor who is outside of a city and on dry land. In a cheat code, it would go something like:

give_trait this GoodCommander 5

The general that would get this trait would need to be selected by the cursor, outside of a city and on dry land. Use it on Priests, Assassins, Generals, etc. especially when they have a name that is longer than 1 word.

Im always trying to enter the cheat creat_unit "Nottingham" "Armored Swordsmen" 3933 what am I doing wrong? aND ARE there any other cheats like that?

I believe you are entering it incorrectly. Quotations are usually optional, I type all my cheats without them and they work fine. Try:

create_unit Nottingham armored_swordsmen 3 9 3 3

Typically the unit names are lowercase, all spaces must be filled by and underscore, the city name must be capitalized, and I'm not sure, but I think the numbers have to be separated, otherwise the computer would think it was 3,933 and not 3/9/3/3. There are TONS of other cheats, and this site has a large bulk of them, look around. I use the character trait and "process_cq" codes, listed above, very often.
Type create_unit "Nottingham" "Armored Swordsmen" 3 9 3 3. Spaces come between each digit of the number. Otherwise, your unit name might not be correctly spelled. That's my most common source of error. It should tell you exactly what's wrong.
Create_unit Nottingham "Armoured Swordsmen" 5 9 3 3
ARMOURED not ARMORED. The game uses English English, not American English.

How do you join a crusade and where?

A1:
First of all, you must be playing a Catholic faction (No Russia, Byzantine, Moors, Turks, or Egypt) Only the pope can "call a crusade." Open the scroll that shows the pope and his feelings towards all factions and you'll see a small circle with a cross near the top left. This is the "request crusade" button, if it's grey then either a crusade is already in progress or it's been too soon since the last crusade. If blue, you can request the pope to call a crusade on a city from a list of cities that threaten Catholocism. Typically they're Islamic cities, factions that have been excommunicated, or some Rebel cities. Pick your city and request. If granted by the pope, select a general to send on the crusade. The general needs to have a certain number of units with him and he must be located outside a city on dry land. Open the mercenary scroll for this general and there is another blue crusade button, this time at the bottom left. Click "Join Crusade" and he'll get a white flag with a red cross. You'll usually find there's lots of new mercenaries that are available to join the crusade, buy any if you like, then make your way to the target city. Make sure you keep moving each turn towards the crusading city or some of your troops will desert you to pursue the crusade on their own.

I am playing with no time limit battles and I have a problem with stupid computer opponents attacking my castles with massive odds in his favor, but no missle troops. I will not come out of the walls and the computer's troops will not leave. Is there a solution without me making a suicide charge?

A1:
You need to try and 'force' them to attack. if possible, gather an army from somewhere nearby and approach the castle. The enemy will do either one of three things:

A) abandon the seige and attack the new army
B) retreat away from the castle, allowing you to pursue (though be careful of ambushes)
C) attempt to take the castle. If you know your not going to be able to win the fight, then try and take out as many troops as possible. If you have an army heading to said castle to aid the defenders, they should be able to easily retake the castle.

It all depends on playing style. Sometimes, If I know I can't hold a castle, say Angers from a mighty English army, I try and deal them a few defeats elsewhere (for instance, I went around their backs and was able to take York, Nottingham and London with some small armies and a few catapults), then negotiate a peace deal via a diplomat/princess.

Well first type in the show_cursorstat like I typed it to get your coordinates and second for example type in move_character "Alexander" then what ever the coordinate number is for example 66,120 and so forth. Type it in like I just did and you should be fine.Just remember use the quotation marks in front and after the character name.Hope this helps you out. -Answer by:logik0505
For your Character reset just type it in exactly like this For example character_reset "Alex" just like that and you should be fine. the character name I gave is just an example of course. -Answer by:logik0505
Hover your mouse pointer over the exact location of the campaign map where you want to move your character and then type in the console
show_cursorstat
This will give you the coordinates of the location, ie 166,30
then to move your character there, type
move_character "Edward Canmore" 166,30
obviously Edward Canmore is just an example.

Is there any cheats to find The Americas straights away? Im at turn 100 and I cant wait that long

Enter the toggle fog of war in the console. (code is toggle_fow). Then use the show cursor stat cheat on in the americas. and finally, use the move character cheat to move the character to the location. do this after dunpowerder is discovered so that you can send ships over
No, there is no cheat.

But you can mod, but do it only with advice. And backups.
-Answer by:Warluster
I have a couple theories that you could try, I haven't done these myself. Without modding, there is no way early in the game because none of the ships are capable of crossing the ocean. You can open the desrc_strat.txt file and change a couple things: 1) change the starting year so that the ships are discovered sooner 2) change the "year perspective" so that each turn is more than 2 years, you'll hit the ocean ships faster 3) get a mod program that allows basic ships across the sea. If you're already 100 turns into a campaign I don't think there's anything you can change. Best of luck.
Yeah. You can. Create_unit for one of the heavy galleys in the same unit as one of your admirals. Then, start moving to the New World. Each time your movement points are up, character_reset "Admiral's Name"
O get there you have to get the toggle_fow cheat then show_cursorstat to where you want to drop units. Then move_character "" and the first 2 numbers you see after you typed in show_cursorstat ex:move_character "Leopold" 255,56. note:if you're asking I didn't find this cheat
By the way, on turn 200 and something the americas will be discoverd, and the ships you have now (cogs,holks,galleys,dhows,ect.) can't reach the americas. Only caravels can.

FOREIGN princess is royalty. Therefore, she can only marry royalty (i.e. your faction leader OR your faction heir ONLY). She cannot marry any other general in your faction.

If your the Aztecs, how do you defeat cav?

Well, the fact is, as Aztecs historically never saw horses, they didn't have any spearmen, did they?

I suggest you swarm the horsemen, or take them out from a range.
-Answer by:Warluster
I did a custom battle I was aztecs in city. I had 15 units of arrow warriors and 5 units of jaguar warriors. I put the archers on the wall and the sword man by the gate. The computer was england it had 15 units of mailed knights and 5 units of dismounted feudal kngnts.
They still had spearmen, just not for use against cavalry seeing as it didnt exist to them.
I think theres a unit of "Aztec Spearmen" which are pretty effective though, but they will take pretty awesome losses
I would use masses of spearmen, or, even better, ambush them
All basic spearmen are massively underrated. Form them into schildrom formation and place them in a suitable pattern before your other units. There should be some space between each of them so that the charging enemy units will flow around them, and get stuck with half the unit between two schildroms. Schildrom formation is also extremely effective in defending cities, when placed in front of the gates and tower exits. Schildrom also lets you place more units in a smaller space because they are tighter, so the morale boost of greater number will let your otherwise cowardly militia units take on jaguar warriors and such. Only drawbacks are that your spearmen will be vulnerable to arrows and cannons, and that the schildrom is hard to use in an offensive matter (although you can have your spearmen charge and change formation in last second to counter the enemies counter charge).

but then you have to create one of those boats that travel along the ocean type that in under the aztec list of armies. ( you will have to make then respawn in the sea so use a y and x axis that is in the sea (you should find one). after you have done this take your armies and move them into Ireland or Dublin. when I did it though there are lots of storms so make sure you have enough ships
Whatever you do don't do the all factions cheat. It breaks the game!(Apparently :D)
I must concur with Answer 6, because for some odd reason, as soon as the game starts (1080 AD), the Aztec civilization fails and is destroyed. Same thing if I try to play them, I appearantly fail with my mission and I lose.
First you must find the file descr strat and there will write Aztecs undiscovered and you need to delete that sentence and that's it

All my family members are dieing how do I get new ones which cheat please explain?
Cheers!

A1:
First of all, if your family members are dwindling, try to keep them out of battle and give them all the trait "Fertile 3" so that they will start producing children extremely fast, usually one per turn. Then, take a small/weak army without a family member commanding it,but a captain. Attack a much larger/stronger army. At the battle window, enter the auto win code. this should come to a clear victory or a heroic victory. Either way, there is a good chance that a window will come up with the title: "Man of the Hour." This will allow you to adopt the captain into your family.
A2:
Theirs probably some mysterious way to do it via hexing and editing a save, as characters are usually just waiting to be born, name ready and everything. I've played england twice, both times I had a child called Henry.

However, if you have one member of you're family who is married, if you give him the fertile trait, and then the wifeisfertile cheat, you should get a new member within a turn or two. Since you've asked for an explanation..

give_trait "Name" "Trait (like Fertile" "amount"

Now, if you're character has an extension to the name like 'The Conqueror' or something, and you can't find out what his last name was beforehand, you can just select him and put 'this' where the name should go. I'll give an example.

give_trait this fertile 3

Now, as you can see from most of the traits, they can go up any number, but limited. So if it doesnt add it, knock it down a number.

Well, I hope this helps.

The campagin map is the big map you look at between battles
it consists of Europe, the middle east, africa, and some of asia.
To answer your money cheat question, you press the ~ button and a little screen should pop up saying "welcome to med shell". Then you type in, add_money 40000 that will get you 40000 florins.
Press this button (~) while on campaign map and put in cheat code
Well the cheat for 1000000 florins is Medieval Total War not Medieval 2 Total War and just stick with the ~ key cheats, U may need to download a patch to do it.
My medieval 2 dosnt react when I press the (~) button, it does this with rome too, whats stranger is I have several different versions of medieval 2 and I have had them installed on several types of pc and at no point has the (~) button ever worked
If the normal ~ button does not work, try the ' button instead (that is @ without shift). Its next to ~.

' key works for me
You can do the same with add_money 40000 with ~ on the actual campagin
When your on the campaign map push ` and it should bring down a console, then you type in add_money 40000. 40000 is the max amount you can put in, but you can do it over and over again until you get your desired amount.
Press the ` button. if that dosent work press '. Then type in:
add_money 40000
nothing should be in capitals
A10:
0-5
Also, it is impossible to add more than 40 thousand florins at one time, even if you input a much higher value. You can repeat the code many times, however.

How to write a code?

A1:
Press the "`" button on your keyboard. should be she button right to the left of the "1" key. then type add_money 100000, process_cq Castle_Town, add_population Nittingham 1000, ect...
A2:
It can be a different key on different computers - on my keyboard it is the # key.

Basically push buttons on your keyboard (trying the ` and # ones first) until you see a small blacking see through screen open up that lets you type in it - then type in your cheat codes and push the same button that opened the screen to close it again.

How do I type a character name with unusual characters, i.e. Vincent d'Albret?

Also, where can I find a list of traits and ancillaries? (Not the actual names, but the codes, i.e. the trait "Blessed" is called "NaturalPriestSkill 1")

A1:
Before you open the console(~)click on the character you want to add a trait or ancillary to and leave him highlited.Then open your console and type in this exact code: give_trait "this" GoodTrader 3

This works with the create unit,remove and add ancillary,remove and add trait,and the character reset cheat as well as others.
NOTE:You should type in,literaly, "this",becsuse it refers to your highlited character.
To get the list of traits and ancillaries go to http://oobucksworld.tripod.com/id13.html and scroll down the page until you see "Medieval II:right here".It should be underlined and colored blue.
The website has a couple of goofy pictures.So you're there if you see them.
To get the names of the traits you need to get patch 1.1 and unpack your files.then go to My computer and look in your C drive(C:).Then go to program files then SEGA file then medieval 2.Once you're in you should see a long list of files(After you unpack it).Go to the file character traits or go to the ancillary file and you'll have more info than you need.Your game will most likely crash after you unpack your files but that can easily be fixed.Check out the forums on the interenet and look for people with the same problem.I would tell you but I'm too lazy.

The easyest way to find out wat units you can make it to go in to custom battle to see wat units you want

These give you elephants - just open the normal window for putting cheats in, with a city already selected, and type the word above on it's own.
Elephants:

I don't know what the character_reset does plz can someone tell me and show example?

Charater_reset allow's you to move an army or fleet farther than normal. For instance when you click an army to move to attack a city you'll see the army's path in green (for the area it can cover during that turn) then in red and blue and so on. Character_reset reset's the army and they will be able to move the over again.
It resets your character movement to make another move ( does not always work )
But this Character_reset dosent work for character with 2 names, aslo when there 2 character of same name it always resets the unwanted Character. Any Solution.
For a character with two names, you need quotes. Ex:
character_reset "Bob Marley"
Huh for my king his name is "King Edward" I just put Edward with no "" and it worked same for prince such and such... odd...
A5, that is correct. King, Prince, Emperor and similar titles are not needed to be typed in, for example if you want to reset King Evil Cookie's movement, type in
character_reset "Evil Cookie", and not KING Evil Cookie.

I can get units into a town with the create_unit cheat but I don't know how to get them into an army? I tried many ways to type the person's name but it won't work.

Just get like a 1 person army outside your settlement,then click the army,an type in the code,such as george or whatever,then they will join that army :)
I like Answer 1 but I already know that. I ment a reg unit like feudal knights. (PS. this is the person who asked the question)
A basic example is (create_unit Rufus "Dismounted Longbowmen" 2 9 1 3"
The rules however for the code are that you can not add units not of the faction you are playing, some of the unit names have been changed but are generally the same.
The names have to be surrounded by quotation marks like "David Canmore", or "Mac_Bethead Canmore", or "Sigmund de_Betrand", or "Sigilus von_Keslo" Anyone with a title or a single name do not need quotations and should be Rufus not "Rufus. When they have a title like "Prince Nectar" if the title was aquired before your last load, save and reload the game and you will not need to find the lastname, it will simply be Nectar. Lastly King and Prince and Councilor, and Duke titles do not go with names, in or out of quotations.

What code do I type to get my commanders or assassins or anything better?

With the Assassin selected, drop the console down and type:

give_trait this GoodAssassin 4
give_trait this NaturalAssassinSkill 3
give_trait this AssassinsGuildMember 2
give_ancillary this assassins_blade
give_ancillary this assassins_apprentice
give_ancillary this accomplice

This is a kick arse Assassin
Don't forget give_ancillary this explosives .... for their espionage missions
The goodassassin trait can actually go up to 5
The ancillary "pet_bloodhound","femme_fatale" and "handgun" also give +2 to subterfuge each one of them.If it is to give your assassin only 3 ancillaries.

How do I qualify for the woodsmen guild (besides playing the English)?

Unfortunatly, you can't get the woodsmen guild unless playing the English. Sorry:-(
You could play as the Russians who also have them.
Keep a high Chivalry (4+) Governor in the settlement and build the Brothel series of buildings. If you just demolish then rebuild the basic Brothel as often as you can you should get access to it.
You have to recruit as many archers as you can. If you qualify for this guild, it doesn't give you new type of unites but if you qualify for Master Woodsmens' Guild, you'll be able to recruit "Sherwood Archers". -Answer by:knight007
