Modding Question: Faction creator race choices

from Elemental Forums

I want to make the races that are restricted to empire factions only, available for kingdom factions too. I can't seem to find where it is that they're restricted in the files. I'm assuming it's something in CoreRaceTypes or CoreRaceConfigs, but I can't see anything in CoreRaceTypes that seems like it would affect it, and CoreRaceConfigs is actually where factions are defined, if I understand it correctly.

 

Am I missing something?

Looks like this is actually hardcoded in the .exe to the internalnames of the racetypes

Race_Type_Quendar

Race_Type_Urxen

Race_Type_Trogs

What you could do is create a new racetype that is identical to those, but has a different internalname. Although you may have to create new UnitTypes then, as well.
