bug fixes 🌍 The Lost Update for Age of Civilizations II - Revision 5

[Chairman Baad 2,000]

Here it is, my next AoH2 project. The Lost Update aims to fix bugs that aren't rooted in the game's code. As such,
THIS PROJECT WILL NOT ADD ANY NEW SCENARIOS, PROVINCES, FORMABLES, ETC.
Basically any bug or error that I can fix will be in this unofficial "update", as well as any enhancements that I can think of. I intend to have this act as a base for future mods due to the various improvements I've made.

Currently implemented changes include:

• An app file updated to the latest version of the game, 1.01584_ELA.
• Corrected the capitals in some scenarios.
• Updated the Abyssinia formable to include Eritrean territory.
• More portraits for the existing leaders.
• Removed Gandhi as he never actually led India.
• Civ names now appear in white.
• Numerous improvements for the localization, including a reorganized language list and a fix for the September/August bug.
• Fixed a few misspelled leader names.
• Fixed some duplicate cities and province errors.
• Fixed the spelling of Edinburgh.

You can use this for any AoH2 project. You don't need to give credit, but you can if you want to make me smile.

Here it is, my next AoH2 project. With this one, I'm focusing on improving content from the base game instead of adding new stuff. Basically anything that I think should be fixed or changed will be in this "mini-update". However, there will be no new scenarios, provinces, formables, etc. My goal is for this to become a base for all future mods, so I believe that other modders should provide new content themselves.

That being said, here's what I will do with the game:

• Correcting the capitals in all scenarios.
• More leader portraits. (this isn't off-limits since it's part of improving the existing leaders)
• Gandhi will be removed since he never actually led India. Plus this game doesn't have nukes.
• Civ names will appear in white.
• Bug fixes.

NO LONGER TAKING SUGGESTIONS - ALL PREVIOUS SUGGESTIONS HAVE BEEN CLEARED

Of course! You can use this for anything.

I don't understand why people have to make fun of someone for just making a mod ngl that kind of behaviour from this community is cringe and mates with common sense would know that this is just meant to improve upon the base vanilla game

You can use this for anything regardless of whether you're making something for the public. You don't need to give credit, but you can if you want to make me smile.
