Unable to make custom names group in Assembly Kit

[WibblyWWonder]

Hey there,

I'm trying to create a custom names group for a startpos. In the assembly kit I've created the group in 'names_groups', then I added a bunch of custom names in 'names'. Next I assigned that name group to my (vanilla) faction in startpos_factions, gave one of the new names to the FL, did all the usual export to binary etc. However, BoB crashes when I try to build the startpos. BoB works otherwise when I revert the FL name back to vanilla and builds a startpos without a problem. So, what steps have I missed?

Hi There,

If you are confident you have edited the tables properly but only falling down at the building have you checked that you are using the older game launcher? i mod mainly thrones of britannia but its essentially the same game and if you use the new launcher it tends to crash when building the startPOS all time!

to use the older one you can rick click the tool on steam and go to properties > betas and then select i believe release-launch-candidate- (I THINK)

I hope this helps.
