BB 4.24 <28/10/12>

[Cultist]

Great mod Taiji, i never got to thank you for all your work.
Good job!
Now a question for the community:
how do you guys set the defense spending feature in BB 3.05 in times of peace and war?
Should i set it higher in times of inflation? (i am insanely rich and i have to get rid of some money anyway, i will either spend it on defense or bribe armies)

[Renesans]

Renesans, thanks but I can't see which unit that is because I can't read russian

Flavio, thanks, that's one of TQ's changes and easy to fix

Kela, thanks for the savegame, sadly I have no idea what is causing that crash

Greetings,Taiji On my screenshot was unit - Contaratoi

[Taiji]

Renesans, thanks mate!

Cultist, you're welcome, glad you like it.

Is this mod dir compatible (mod-foldered) ?

[Taiji]

Yes, just be sure to install DLV6.2 first - And then follow the instructions on the first post of this thread.

[SirWarts]

ok i have the up to date medieval 2 total war. I have DLV 6.0 starting just fine. Then 6.2 starts fine. Then the BB3.0 starts fine but when I try installing 3.05 and it crashes on the loading screen.

I installed both BB and BB patch to med2/mod.

[Taiji]

Your download may be corrupt. Did you try downloading it again already?

[SirWarts]

I didn't think of that i will start downloading a new 3.5 patch now.

[SirWarts]

ok i re downloaded 3.05. Before I try installing it is there any thing I can look for that will verify that 3.0 BB is correctly installed. Again I installed it in med2/mods folder.

Sorry to be a pain.

[Taiji]

Load up a campaign, and if you get no choices about which scripts to run then you know 3.0 is working.

Hi,Master Taiji, quick set of questions. 1. Is BB to be on hold till DLV 7.0 is out (largley due to your limited time split between mods). 2. Any chance adding 4SPY to BB (saves me adding it when you do an update) 3. Is BB to continue on your own line of direction or is the baton to be handed back!!!!

[Taiji]

Yo

1, Repman has returned, so we need to wait to see what he wants to do.
2, Yes, chances like that exist. We'll see what's going to happen next and whether or not that should be prioritised.
3, Hmmm, again, we'll see. DLV is ultimately Repman's baby, and BB is can be something like baby food. But it depends on what Repman wants to do, afterall he doesn't have to use BB if it's going to be easier for him to do otherwise. And if so then I'll be trying to ensure that everyone's work is not wasted

Either way, life is sweet

[SirWarts]

Thanks Taiji:Ok apparently I did this wrong again so now I gotta start all over.

[SirWarts]

I follow the directions exactly and extract into the mods folder but no luck past getting it patched to 6.2.

[evenflowjimbo]

I must say, this is a must for anyone that wants to get the most out of this mod. This also forces me to play the mod as it should ... With all the scripts and such. Great job!

[Taiji]

SirWarts, that's because you didn't follow the instructions. You must install 6.2 to your m2tw folder, not mods.

Thanks Master Taiji,for your updates.Iv'e never looked at BB being classed as "baby food" more of " fresh air" cos, without it DLV would have gone to the mods in the sky IMHO. Any hoo,stop all this time waisting and update the BB to BB4.0 complete with 4SPY and some mongol haliberds. Great respect. PS. along with your radical changes so far,will you be changing the start-end time line.Freeing up some unit slots for better needs

[Taiji]

Ragnar, don't joke around being a dick, you're wasting my time

Hi Taiji, my turkish campaign is very tense, dyplomacy and all alliances are quite logical, battles are very good, but when I counter-attack from the besieged city by my cavalry and I go to rear the enemy troops their general and cavalry does not respond to me and I killed them ( general + cavalry ) without effort but the other troops attemped to kill my cav. I love all that is in BB especially since there a development unit and muzic packs for BB ( Kaiser1993 and TaronQuinn ).

BB is only reason for which I am playing Med and DLV. No one wanted to offend but this is my opinion.

[Taiji]

Thanks for the feedback, Kela.

I know the AI handles sallying by the player really badly. When I come back to battle-scripting it's on my list of things to solve.

Great to hear everything else is satisfying you (And no small thanks to Kaiser and TQ - they're doing a fine job )
