[Version 2.6] Patch 2.65

[shokh]

Patch 2.65

Hello, this patch is tested team intern. Before i create a new full package you can test it.
This patch comes with an installer (Size 21MB).

This patch include:

* CTD trough gatling gun fixed
* corrupted savegames minimized
* Turn 12/13 lag fixed
* Launcher optimized

The Gatling gun caused crashes trough an coding failure.

Savegame ctd should now be lowered. A game based on ETW can never be 100% free from this bug but we hope this patch solve the issue for the most users.

Additional all characters in the world got changed birth dates to fix the lag in the endturn of the first year. For some pc`s this lag can be still ingame but till 3.0 this will be the best we can offer.

Some users got problems with "press D or F" in the very first use of our launcher. This comes when you installed ETW not in the default destination. The new launcher can handle this now. Problem should be completely fixed.

------------

New features are not integrated in this patch, they are reserved for our next big release of 3.0 ACW.
The patch was tested team intern and from friends. Only one get still a savegame problem, for the rest the mod is running fine now.

Please report when this patch fix the problem for you or when not. Small rework can be done if we find failures.

Cheers, shokh & the ACW team.

I have a memory hole, when you remove Empire you need to remove other folder in your disk, a hidden folder or something like that .
I have a folder named "The Creative Assembly"But he has just Rome inside, I just remember it was a folder with nappy and Empire in .

[shokh]

Yes, "C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Roaming\Creative Assembly\Empire".

[captcruch]

Ah" Roaming " yeah thx Shokh .

But no roaming in appdata folder it normal ?

[shokh]

Roaming must exist, this folder is also used by windows.
Did you set your explorer that the also show hidden folders?

[captcruch]

You were right as usual, with my new computer I had completely forgotten to re-activate this option.

I don't understand why vista need to hide some folders ............................

Install: Install path must be checked by you. The folder must contain the file "empire.exe" which is inside your original "empire total war" folder.

[airborne guy]

Ok , ehat do you mean by "checked by you?" where does it go?

[Primergy]

That means that you have to control if the path which the installer is using is also definitly the path were you installed Steam (Empire) to.
It isn't enough to press okay the whole time and then be annyoed when the game won't run.

[airborne guy]

Doesnt it go here? C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\empire total war

[Primergy]

Thats the standard path were steam is normaly installed to, but sometimes people are installing a program somewere else. So first take a look of the path works with your install path.

[airborne guy]

lol, wow, they really need to usw common sense

[swhunter]

It's a shame that ETW couldn't fix the crash on saved games. what were they thinking?
Should of used the mtw engine. Anyhow hopefully i can play the campaign.
