Does this work without the game breaking? I added a new item into the game and it kicked me for cheating.

Kicked you for cheating.. from a server? If you add a new item, which makes a new item_kinds1.txt file it will auto kick you for incorrect number of total items in the items file because it does not match up to the server module. That is normal, which is why if you add a new item entry than replace it will kick you for cheating.

Try joining a regular Napoleonic Wars server and then re-running the installer.

I keep getting this error no now, i can't see anything wrong with any of my code.

Also, anyone know how to change the textures of the plumes?

Only if you try and join an NW server with your new module, the whole point of this tutorial is to create your own module.

Yeah, I should of mentioned in there if you plan to make a standalone mod you cannot join regular NW servers of course. :D

OK, I see your problem now. To fix this possibly, if you have Steam, verify integrity of game cache. If you tried a custom font, you need to delete the FONT data file in the Data folder and delete FONT.dds in the Textures folder.

And that is exactly what makes this confusing to get to the root of the problem. A blank menu with no text is because of custom font OR having Textures set lower than 100 apparently.

I've removed the FONT.dds, i'll try loading the mod up later and see if it's ok then

You can edit the plumes by using paint.net, GIMP, etc program to edit the Plumes_texture.dds in Textures folder.

This moreso belongs in the Questions about modding thread but whatever.

I don't want to sound dumb here, but I just want to replace the British musket with a pike (don't ask why). Is their any way that I could replace the musket with a melee weapon?
