Hi, I have encountered a problem when I'm starting a new campaign again. The game brings me back to the main menu everytime I click the launch campaign button, it's like something's preventing me to start a new game. And afterwards when I tried to quit the game something pops up like this everytime "Generic Error: DATABASE_TABLE error found : unrecognised record id navale quinquiremes requested".
I have already tried to delete the map.rvm, and also tried to reset the campaign map in the RTW folder. But nothing quite changed, still can't play a new campaign. Any solutions?

If you are in game and want to load a new campaign, you first need to terminate the background script. This can be done by selecting the adviser and clicking "terminate script"
The script also terminates if you exit the back to the desktop.
Finally, i 've decided to install RTR VII without Patch 3.
Hello,
I just installed the RTR VII and Patch 3,and everything seems to work fine, except that the screen is not a fullscreen, but is unmovable in the upper left corner and only takes about 60% of the whole screen.
Is there any way to get a fullscreen ?
Thanks in advance,

Hey guys, I've been trying to record a let's play of this amazing mod as Rome, but the game keeps on crashing. The first time it crashed when I was trying to fight a battle against Larth Porsenna and the Etruscan rebels, the second time when I was trying to fight another army of Etruscan rebels. The first crash happened as I was transitioning from the campaign screen to the loading screen, and the second time right after I hit start start deployment on the battle screen. This is very frustrating, because this also for whatever reason causes windows media player to not be able to play the recording (I use MSI Afterburner btw). So I not only have to restart from an earlier point again, but all my recording is rendered useless.
Anyway, does anyone know what I can do about this crashing to the desktop? It seems to only happen when I go into battle, specifically with the Etruscan rebels (though I haven't tested it out with other battles yet). I would much appreciate it if anyone can offer any solutions. If you need any more information, I'd be happy to provide it in the hopes of resolving this issue.
Hi, I am currently playing as league of Aitolia and I have problems with reforms. As you can see I have conquered nearly whole Greece & Macedonia. In my capital, script created building reform counter but it's there for several turns and Thorakitai are still not available. I am playing gold patch. Is this some sort of bug or did you delete reforms for Aitolians? Thank you RTR Team
It seems a bit ridiculous that each stage of road takes an average of ten years, and 40,000 drachs to build. I don't know if there's a historical precedent here, but surely there's a bit of wiggle room?
I've been informed by another thread that there is a game flaw around increasing naval movement range to realistic proportions re: game mechanics. Most historical records I saw put the average travel time by sea from Alexandria to Syracuse at just over ten days (examples included bireme and trireme. If you've nerfed the realism of sea travel so much out of necessity, maybe buff the roads a bit.
Sorry if this has been addressed, I searched "roads" on this thread, and came up with nothing.
It is imposible to make those things realisticaly without drasticly increasing the number of turns per year. Not the sea travel but campaing movement in general is nerfed by necessity (otherwise the Ai would send away its generals to early from newly conquered settlements which would result in the situation that AI will be repeatedly loosing its newly conquered settlement before it manage to paciffy them). Btw. As far as I know it was always faster to travel by sea then by land.
Well, I wasn't thinking so much of increasing movement distance. I just think the cost/construction time for roads is pretty ridiculous. There have certainly been increases in construction time/cost for everything. One can justify it in most cases because of additional turns/year and the overall nature of the economy. The roads though, I just can't understand why they cost so much and take so long to build.

Hello guys. Playing RTR VII I started a vh/vh antigonid campaign after avorting my SPQR one (H/H was too easy, I met no significant resistance). I came across the description of asian war elephants that says the Asians Elephants would beat the African one who were smaller. That's not something I had been told before, so I went for a quick search on wikipedia and found out that the African are actually bigger. Is RTR VII mistaken? Or is it that at the time, for a specific reason, African elephants were smaller than their Asian counterparts. I miss the point here.
Thanx for the answer!
You're partially right. African Bush Elephants are bigger than their Indian counterparts, however, they're are semi-untameable and weren't used by neither Carthaginians nor Ptolemaics. They actually used North African Elephants, an extinct species that was smaller than both African and Indian elephants. So, as you see, RTRVII description is also right.
@Bercor: As far as I recall, I don't think there is an Aetolian reform coded in.

I'm running Windows 7 and it has that administrator setting turned on. it that blocking it?
Or maybe Winzip wants me to buy the pay version. It won't let me install with the trial version.
Can anyone help me?
@Phaedrus
Try 7zip instead of Winzip - it´s a free Software.
You also can use it to unpack RAR-Files.
