Strange problem when modifying the EDU

[romy]

Hey ,

I've a strange problem when I modify the EDU , I always get a CTD..!When I set the numbers of soldiers in an unit to 100 (250 men), let's say , the Scoutatoi (Byzantine spearmen) , save the file and launch the game , it crashes at the splash screen.Well , thinking to be able to resolve it , I put the number back to 80 (200 men , original size) ; it still crashes!
I delete this EDU and take an other one (from the .RAR file) , place it in the data file , change the number of soldiers for the urban spear militia from 80 to 60 (just a test) , it crashes again!
When I change the number of turn for the recruitment of an unit , it crashes too.

Well to be short , whatever I do with the EDU , it keeps crashing!I don't understand because I've modified some other files like descr_buildings , descr_strat , campaign_script and get no crashes..!

Any idea? :-)


I've a solution : I've attached the EDU at my post , could someone edit it and change the number of soldiers for the scutatoi (spearmen) and scutatoi swordsmen to 100 (250 men) and the time recruitment to 1 turn (for the both)?

I'd be grateful if someone does it and he'll get , of course , some +rep!

Thanks in advance :-)

Hello, could you give us the last few lines of your system.log after a CTD ? Did you modify the battle_models.modeldb file ?

I noticed that grande carrack had soldiers set at 100. Could you upload all of the log file? I can't tell from these lines what the problem is.

You might try http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showthread.php?t=221093, which is a tutorial for the EDU Any question I've had about scripting has been answered over there in those forums.

Here's my system log , thanks for the help! :-)
