    Default Patch Packs - After Update, no longer working?

    Has anyone had any trouble with patch packs (like something with a modified localisation.loc) not correctly loading since the update?

    I no have to set my patch pack to movie type in order for it to load.

    Fixed this once, I thought, but cannot recall how!

    puting your localisation.loc in movie is the best way to go for now since we can't control the loading order of pach pack.
    Movie load last (even after mod).

    The mod manager will not add movie packs to load order. You have do a tricky thing to make it work.

    Open the localisation pack in the unpacker. Save it as a "mod" type. Load in the Mod manager. Create a profile with your mod and the localisation pack and save the profile. Load the localisation in the unpacker again. Save it as a "movie" pack. Load the manager and your profile. The file should still show and load despite the program not locating movie packs normally.

    This method has worked for me.

    I find naming the localisation something like "mymod_localisation.loc" doesn't work. You just have to keep it default name, unlike what's best for the other files.

    No, actually the movie pack load each time the game is launched even without touching the script file (so entries in it are useless).
    I understand now why you find that hard, but you don't need to do all this, the mod manager use mod only (to control what launch or not), the other format just launch at start.
    Hope that helps you

    Thanks guys, I'm mostly curious as to WHY it won't load localisation.loc in a patch pack.

    Does it load patches before patch_en.pack or what?

    I hate trying to edit this game.

    I have to start over because the game keeps crashing when I try to put in custom descriptions for a unit. Even now that I've removed them it still crashes.

    I can't verify that this method even works. When I tried to open the game with my localisation file as a "movie" pack, it didn't work. It didn't show anything in game.

    It's supposed to go Boot -> Release -> Patch -> Mod -> Movie
