Battlemap unit models and settlement structures can be edited via user-created tools many of which export and import to Milkshape ms3d files. The campaign map for M2TW can be modified by altering.

If anyone wants to help provide schema updates for the community, I have written a tutorial on decoding table schemas, which is linked in my signature, and they can be submitted to the schema support thread, which is also linked in my signature. The only caveat is that I can't provide schema updates myself since I don't have a copy of the game files yet. Other than those three things, I think I have all the information needed to implement support. It's not strictly necessary since PFM can auto-generate it but I prefer to have all the schema files included in the schemas rather than requiring everyone to generate them themselves and go through those popups. This tells PFM what schema versions each table is meant to use for a game when creating tables from scratch. A copy of the "maxVersions_TW3K.xml" file that will be generated automatically the first time Three Kingdoms is selected in PFM by someone with Three Kingdoms installed once initial support is added.Preferred information for Three Kingdoms support: I believe this particular information is a bit of legacy support used back in the days of Empire/Napoleon when it was necessary to manually add mods to the script files in that folder to get them to load, but I prefer to maintain support even if few people use it. We only need to know the spelling/capitalization used by CA for the folder name indicated by %The game's name%. The location of the script folder: This is typically located in "C:\Users\%UserName%\AppData\Roaming\The Creative Assembly\%The game's name%". If the number has increased, I will need copies of a few pack files in order to determine how the header format has changed. If it is still "PFH4" or "PFH5" that's sufficient information for me to know. This is a four-byte ascii string found at the start of each pack file. Un-obtained necessary information for initial Three Kingdoms support: Hopefully this thread survives the move from Three Kingdoms being in the upcoming titles section to being its own sub-forum. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to confirm any members of the PFM team who own a copy of the game yet, so I'll be reliant on the community for the information necessary to implement support in PFM. I'm starting work on support for Three Kingdoms in Pack File Manager.
