How do I find the aztecs or soth america?

A1:
First off, at about 150 turns, the event 'The World is Round!' will appear.

Then, some unexplored map pops up on your minimap, and depending on your faction, you use Caravels or Carracks to cross the ocean and can go to Cuba, some bits of Norht America, and South AMerica.

The Auto win code will not work! It is so annoying! :(?

A1:
I believe the auto-win code only works if you simulate the battle, that is, not play it yourself. Make sure you're typing: auto_win attacker for when you are initiating battle or: auto_win defender when battle is initiated by someone else.
A2:
The syntax is: auto_win attacker or auto_win defender.

I am in the 109th turn and my corruption level reached 20000 florins per turn... it is too much and I cant go on because I cant support new developed armies... how do I get my corruption level to go down?thanks in advance

Ouch thats nasty mate, check out all your characters' influence on towns by looking at the difference they make when you place them in cities and out of them. I have the same thing sometimes, you have to sort out the financially adept characters from the inept. Good luck.
Try to change our capital in middle of our kingdom.

Europe to the Moors
Just use the add_money cheat to periodicly boost your amount of florins and when it starts to get low just do it again.

How do you play as the aztecs?

Question from: theslinser432(320)
7 Answers +
You can not
Destroy there faction
They cannot be accessed in the Grand Campaign on Medieval II. However you can unlock them by editing the descr_strat.txt file, although this makes the game rather unstable and prone to crashes, and it is therefore best not to try it.

The only other option is to buy the 'Kingdoms' Expansion, which allows you to play as the Aztecs and other native American peoples in the Americas campaign.
Use the Kingdoms exspansion. The cheat doesnt work and will destroy your game. Thats what happened to me
I found a way to play as the aztecs and the rebels wich I think is really cool and it hasnt effected my game yet but its hard to explain how to do it
I keep trying the dscr strat thing and it wont work, it makes me rename the file and all that.
Simple - change the file from 'read only' to 'write enabled'

Hi guys...i can't type quotation marks in the console cuz it's the same button to open it (')...so when I type it (shift + ') the console closes! can anyone help me?
thanks

I type all my codes without quotation marks and they work just fine. Here's some examples:

give_trait Rufus GoodCommander 5
process_cq London
auto_win attacker
remove_ancillary Agnes secret_love
give_trait this HighPersonalSecurity 3
add_money 40000
add_population Cairo 4000

All those codes work, and without quotes. See if you can get them to work for you.
You can only enter the codes without "s if the target has a single name, you need them for characters with more than one name, ie
"Malcolm Canmore"
"Louis de_Montfort"
etc
That's because it's the " (shift + 2 key) not the ' (the console key) you should be using.

When I try to give a trait to a person with two or more names, I get an error message that says the character cant be found. Do I have to have a special key ore something between first name and surname?

A1:
Try putting scare quotes ("") around the person's full name. Or use "this" while selecting the character.
A2:
If it's someone with just two names, e.g Alexander Canmore, then you just type 'create_unit "Alexander Canmore" "Spear Militia" 5 0 3 3'. However, if it's someone with a three part name, e.g Charles de Marseilles, then you would type 'create_unit "Charles de_Marseilles" "Spear Militia" 5 0 3 3'.

How can I let the "Aztecs" use the gunpowder? I captured the new Spains cities and gian nothing

You can't.
Aztecs never really learned to use gunpowder they were killed off to quickly and they prefered live sacrafice and cutting peoples hearts out not so easy when the heart has a big hole and is alrady 50m from the body use other srengths like the jungle, ambush!
The only native american factions that can destroy armies with gunpower and therefore use gunpowder are the Chichemec and the Apachean tribes. The Aztecs and other Meso-Americans cannot. (I have no idea why though)

Whats the most important castles or cities?

A1:
Ealy periods castles are the best for milatary but you cannot recruit spys, assasins or merchant etc.

But when you get into the late periods cities are the best overall as you can create gunpowder troops.
A2:
Early periods you're bordering regions should be at least 50% castles to be able to produce strong infantry as well as calvary. Late periods it's good to switch to mostly cities for they have a strong economy to back the mercenary styled gameplay, but keep a port city as castle to recruit many late period calvary units to be able to counter gunpowder units.

This is to finish my last question also in my last question and this one I am reffering too Medieval 2 Total war. thought I clear that up.My second question is how do you disable the read me file so I can save any edited files? I have windows Vista does that have any Relavence? I need expert help on this questions and I am not an expert so I will be grateful for any help I can get.Thank You

Question from: logik0505(44)
3 Answers +
You right click on the file and select "properties". You then uncheck the "read only" button and your good to go.
You have to save it in another place, delete the first file, and copy and paste it in. I also have windows vista so this works.
You need to select the files in the Medieval folder to have Administrator access and able to edit it, you do this by right clicking on the folder - selecting properties - go to security tab - and select the account you are using - give this account full control over the folder...

This will allow you to Edit files as you like and save over the original, so I would advise you make a backup before trying this as it can and will mess up your game if you do not know what you are doing.

How do you create units with 2 names with cheats also artillery?

Just put the " at the begining and end
example- create_unit Leon "chivalric knight"
Artillery has an additional designator that changes by faction. For example, Culverins, which Holy Roman Empire can have, are called NE Culverins. NE for Northern Europe. Artillery that is specific to a region will have designators like that. There is a file in the Data folder of your Game installation called "export_descr_unit" open it with notepad and it lists the names and stats of every unit in the game.
I have looked for this file with absolutely no luck. I mean, I looked in that folder. I looked in the game folder. I looked on my hard drive. I looked on my external hard drive. I looked online. hehehe Where is it!? Thank you

I made changes in the descr_strat but I can't get them to show up in the game, I then tried to save the descr_strat and it said it is read only. How do I get this to work?

Question from: vuelo916(4)
4 Answers +
Save your changes under a different file name. Delete the old descr_strat file then re-name your new file as descr_strat.
U need to copy and paste the file into my documents edit it in my documents then delete the file what is read only then copy the file in my documents and paste it where the read only file was
When you edit the descr_strat file, the changes will take effect when you start a new game.

re: read-only. Just un-check "read-only" from the properties of the descr_strat file then edit. =)
Right click with mouse over file, go to properties, and under general tab untick read only box then apply changes.
You should make a copy of this file (i seem to recall).
