IB2 Vandalorvm II Campaign Install Issues/Questions/Bugs

[justinius]

Not sure what you said but I got 1.2 to work by moving my all the 3 files to the IB2 folder so I'll install the 1.201 patch now.

Btw this is the only availability IB2 mod using the Med2 engine right and is there a way to know if the 1.2.01 patch installed correctly because I don't see a difference? (like what's an 'au naturel'.)

[Gigantus]

'au naturel' is french for unchanged (sorry for the wordplay) - in this case pictures made from screen shots without further editing.
For the rest PLEASE read the info provided.

Ok I so I got 1.201 it's pretty good for the scale of the game. Can't wait for a grand campaign.

So you guys exported quite a few units from IB (far from all still). Planning on more? Pretty cool in 3 turns I got almost all of Africa as the Vandals.

Awesome mod! congratulations, but I have a problem:

Units are not highlighted (green circles) when I click on them in battle.
How can I solve this? or Is this a bug? or is it supposed to be that way?

I have everything installed, patch included.

to enable the green arrow markers --

To enable the green arrows under your units do this --

edit the ib2.cfg file found in the IB2 folder

change this line disable_arrow_markers = true

to

disable_arrow_markers = false

save your changes

i still get error at 38% as people did before me

[Jack_Hydron]

So do I, before redownloading all parts I still have this error file corrupt unreadable:

mods/IB2/data/northern_european/eventpics/UNUSED/CAMPAIGN_DEFEAT.TGA at 38%

I thought you just had to mess with the minimal ui thing for arrow markers
i hate the drop down

Did you ever get the throwing axe animation to work?

Hi, I can not find a link to the patch 1.1. Could anyone give me a link to the patch 1.1?

[Aethelstan]

What do you mean?

You need the three psrts of the core buid 1.2 and the patch 1.2.01 - links are working, I just checked.
No patch 1.1 there or needed.

[Dunios]

That is not so I have to install 0.1 -> 0.2-1.0-1.1-1.2? only need to install 1.2 and 1.2.1? <faceplam>

[Aethelstan]

I think the first post should be understandable. dont know what confused you:

Invasio Barbarorum 2 Vandals 1.2 (Full)

IB2 - Vandals Version 1.2 Full (Exe) - 200,000KB
IB2 - Vandals Version 1.2 Full (DO1) - 200,000KB
IB2 - Vandals Version 1.2 Full (DO2) - 176,242KB

IB2 - Vandals Patch 1.2.01 - 273KB

Installation:
- Download all three parts into one directory, double click\run the EXE file
- The installer will install the files into mods\IB2
- Simply follow the instructions

That is a complete version (the thread title gives a decent hint) compiled by gigantus and all what is needed.

At the moment I am playing ss 6.3 maybe a stupid question but if I install this one can I run them both still ? Does this mod change any files other than the ones in mods\IB2 ?

Thanks in advance

[Gigantus]

The game is 100% modfoldered - nothing outside its folder.

Hi just got MTW2 and really haven't even played it yet Just installed IB2 and have a couple questions.The installer wanted to install in program files and I couldn't change it so I let it. I renamed the ib2 folder americas and moved to mods in MTW folder,it seems to work but haven't really played yet. Noticed a couple of graphical anomalies ( no chi ro on banners and bridges look like arrows) maybe because of the way I had to get it running? Is there anyway I can change target in installer or maybe obtain a .RAR file? Looks really nice and looking forward to playing EDIT What should I do with the registry file? merge it or just leave it be? Played a couple turns and wow! Incredible detail and hardly any lag even whith unlimited men when being attacked by a massive Vandal army Are there any other mods set in Roman period for MTW ? I'm not much for the Medieval stuff but this looks perfect,can't wait for the other campaigns

[Gigantus]

The installer looks for the registry entry of Med2. It looks somehow like in my pic. If you have moved your installation without changing the registry entry, then that's where the error came from. Judging by your pic, the registry entry is missing and the default path was used.
Even then you shouldn't have any problems if you moved the installation into the right folder of your med2 installation.
The registry entry is for people that prefer to use the launcher, it will not affect your game play.
The green arrow is a land bridge (remember the Bosporus in vanilla?), not a regular bridge.

Thanks,seems to be working fine been playing it a bit this afternoon while I have a day off hehe. I never noticed before but my programs files do not allow a tree as in your screenshot if I doubleclick on the Sega folder it shows the MTW2 folder.Wonder if I have a setting off I need to change? EDIT NM lol thats a regedit screen wonder why it didn't find the folder? Was a digital download so maybe that has somethoing to do with it.

[Gigantus]

Maybe run a search in the registry for "SEGA" or "Medieval" - that might show up the key.
