Here's instructions on how to make Nostradamus the leader
for one of your civs,  using the picture that i made
(Nostrada.tga)  (it should be included)

You can make him the leader of ANY civ,  but
i'll use France as an example


Goto your  ...ctp_data\english\gamedata  folder,
open  civ_str.txt  and replace the following line:
(it's located below the part that says  # emissary photos)
(upd021.tga could be different in your file)

FRENCH_DIPLOMAT_PHOTO	"upd021.tga"

replace it with this line:
FRENCH_DIPLOMAT_PHOTO	"Nostrada.tga"

Now scroll down and find this part:

FRENCH "French"

FRENCH_LEADERM_NAME "Napoleon"
FRENCH_LEADERF_NAME "Marie-Antoinette"
FRENCH_COUNTRY_NAME "France"
FRENCH_SINGULAR "French"
FRENCH_PLURAL "French"


replace    FRENCH_LEADERM_NAME "Napoleon"

with this  FRENCH_LEADERM_NAME "Nostradamus"


Finally,  copy the picture   Nostrada.tga   to

...ctp_data\default\graphics\pictures

that's it...  now you can play as, or against the
famous prophet.

i can't remember if i used Harlan's blank background
or my own...  but Harlan's is available on Apolyton,
in his Graphical Mod 1.0  (a Great mod)
