Originally posted by PDF: It's simpler IMHO to just rename the .2h file of the newlords folder :
ulm.2h => ulm_sage.2h
pythium.2h => pythium_oracle.2h
etc..
Whenever you want to use one of the stored designs just delete the "normal" nation.2h file, then duplicate the one you want and rename it to nation.2h et voilà !
In response to this thread, I've written a couple of utilities for Windows that easily allow you to make backup copies of your newly designed pretenders, and restore them at a later date. You can create desktop shortcuts to make it easy. Instructions are included in the zip file.
It works like this (for example):
Nation to backup? ermor
Name to use? ermor_sage
Done!
Run the restore utility (example):
Name of file to restore? ermor_sage
Original nation name? ermor
