Is it possible to change the modification msg-intro?
I mean changing the text through my mod

msg-intro=...

If I put it in 1-st string in locale/ru/base.cfg, it do nothing.

P.S.:sorry for my english

msg-intro is part of another mod: scenarios/freeplay. You need to edit that scenario to change it.

I want change it in my mod, for another players. I know, were is msg-intro. But I do not know: how can I change this text, use my mod only.

You just want to display some message at the start of the game in your mod? Use game.showmessagedialog in the onplayercreated event, look at the freeplay control.lua how it's done there. If you already have some code that's not working, post it here so we can look at it.

Copy scenarios/freeplay to scenarios/your-mod
Edit msg-intro
Move all your other mod assets into scenarios/your-mod
Distribute scenarios/your-mod and tell everyone to install it in scenarios.
