Cheats via editing Rome: Total War files
Open the root folder of the game Rome: Total War and in it go to the Data > world > maps > campaign > imperial_campaign directory. There, find the file descr_strat.txt and open it with any text editor. It will greatly change the game Rome: Total War and provide benefits comparable to cheat codes.
1) At the beginning of the code there are two columns with states: playable and nonplayable, playable and non-playable nations, respectively. By moving the name of a country, Rome: Total War, from the second column to the first, you will open up the opportunity to play for it, which cannot be achieved with other cheats.
2) If you want to change the start and end dates of the game, to do this, change the values next to the lines start_date and end_date respectively. Please note that the historical events of Rome: Total War will, in any case, take place in the year allotted to them, and this cannot be corrected with cheat codes.
3) Find the line with the text start of factions section. After it, as you might guess, there is data about all the factions, which is simply a treat for lovers of cheat codes. Each nation at the beginning has a denari line with some number - this is the starting capital of this nation in Rome: Total War. You can change it at your discretion, so that, for example, each time you start the game with a lot of money and do not use cheat codes for this.
4) There is also an interesting section, which can be found by following the line start of diplomacy section. This lists the diplomatic relations of all Rome: Total War factions towards each other on a scale of -10 to 600, with 600 being the most aggressive. You can change these values to affect diplomacy early in the game - another unique feature compared to just cheat codes. Keep in mind that over time, relations in Rome: Total War will still change.
In addition, the file contains several more sections with various options for regulating Rome: Total War. They can also replace or supplement the use of some cheat codes. Don’t forget to save changes and make backup copies in order to restore the functionality of your Rome: Total War if something happens.
Below is a list of console commands - each command has lines: a description, if relevant, then the syntax of the command and an example of its application are additionally indicated (the syntax and example are indicated in “such” quotes, the rest of the text of the lines is explanatory) or the method of application.
