Geomod Tool for Mapping

[Gigantus]

Please explain your problem in more detail - seeing this is your first post I can't reference what the error miight be.

[_Capper_]

I adding new character and some units to map... but when i save it do not change
i registered only for this (My english can be bad because i am student )

[_Capper_]

HUGE BUG:

The program doesn't read the existing building entries in the descr_strat.

When you add an entry, validate and then save, all you have got left is this building entry. Nothing anywhere else.
That nearly broke my spirit - but good modder that I am (and listening to the warnings of the programmers) I had made a back up.

This will need to be fixed, you have to finish everything that you can with the program before you do the buildings manually. After that no more program use unless you have made backups of descr_strat.

it is my error.. can you uderstand me ? sorry for flood

[Gigantus]

I think you made a mistake when creating a rebel character:

You need to first create a regular faction's character, place him on the map, test him and THEN chnage him into a rebel. It is a bug that is on the rectification list.

Not sure if I mentioned that in my manual....

it worked but i want to add unit to mongols and timurids because i will create a hotseat and i decided hotseat satarts with this map ----> http://www.totalwar-turkiye.com/twfo...?topic=73761.0
i worked/works in some mods but i dont add mongols (i added that but manuel)

can you help me ? when i save my project (i copied opened stainless steel) i take "Geomod Stop Running" error in windows 7

Sometimes Geomod cannot process custom settings (the additional stone fort from TATW for example) and it freezes when saving. Please note down the percentage at which it freezes and look the number up in the list in my manual. If you still have a problem identifying the problem, post your findings here.

Where can I download it? the link in the OP goes to rapidshare but I don't see any download button there and Gig's attachements are some .rar files that open in word with some weird symbols? Help plz because I really want to map

[Serbian Hussar]

Hey guys. Sorry if this was asked before.. I get crashes when I move settlement or a port. Why is this? And somethimes I can add a new region, somethimes it crashes on 1% (I beleve it has somethinng to do with rebel factions) and I dont know why. Some help please

[Gigantus]

@lollsuck
Open the attachment with 7zip , that is a freeware compression tool.

@Serbian Hussar
Sometimes in your map_regions the region does not agree with map_heights - it extends into water. Placing your port\settlement without attachment to land will cause that error. If you are modding the original map, then you are a victim of the "Ragusa Port Bug". Download my Bare Geomod installation and copy map_regions from there into your original game.
rebels - not sure what causes that, I would need more details.

32 or 64 bit?

[Serbian Hussar]

Yeah, that probably was it. Thanks And also I have figured out the rebel factions problem. I have to input it every time I change a settlement. One more thing. When chosing a core building I don't get any walls, just some "hansa" ??

Weird, screenshot please?

[Serbian Hussar]

Here. I'm using Stainless Steal map.

[Gigantus]

Looks like SS is using a different core building then the original. Probably like RTW where the core building wasn't the walls but an "admin" building.
Have a look in the text\export_buildings file for a description of that building.

32 or 64 bit?

can you plz answer, I'm not really in the mood of trying

[Gigantus]

I answered on my wall (to myself by the looks of it ), so here it is again: if you ask this question, chances are you will need the 32bit version. The 64bit version goes with a 64bit OS.

Please help me I dont know how to use this tool at all! when i start geomod i choose stainless steel mod folder, whenever i make a province bigger i press save and when i start the campaign it just goes back to the campaign menu, please help me!

[Gigantus]

Check the manual please.

A question!

As soon as I start a game, it says:
Defeat imminent! The Mongols have won world domination!
or something like that. So I lose before turn two. The mongols aren't on the map yet. wth
