Thread: Elephant help (again)

  1. #1

    Default Elephant help (again)

    Hi, so I downloaded the mod, with the correct versions on rtw and bi, and tried to do a custom battle with elephants, so I got the "240.00000" error code, or w/e it was, so I went to the forums and saw the "elephant help" thread. So, I did what it said, but when I hit save, I get an error code that says...
    "Cannot create the C:\Program Files\The Creative Assembly\Rome - Total War\data\descr_model_battle.txt file.

    Make sure the path and file name are correct."

    Please help! I want to destroy some colonists on a bridge with some elephants!

    In that case try dragging the txt file you are editing onto the desktop, then making the changes and saving it. Then drag it back into the data area and it should all work fine!

    Gah, yes. I hate that issue to on Vista:

    Go to Control Panel, user accounts, account switch on-off (the last one)
    restart computer, make the change, set it back on (in case of a virus)
    And kick some roman ass

    Hope you understand it..
