REPORT TATW 3.2 Bugs & Issues (Read 1st post before posting, this thread is not for fixing bugs and issues, just for reporting them!)

[Withwnar]

An actual bug:

Bandobras Archers should be one of the autonomy scripted units but is not, due to this line in campaign_script...

generate_random_counter random_tribute 1 2 3

Should be...

generate_random_counter random_tribute 1 3

There are nine such lines.

I am unable to recruit, retrain or build anything at Hobbittown and the two adjacent cities.

Using vanilla TATW: I've been using Snaga Skirmishers, but they won't actually throw any projectiles. They'll do the whole animation right up until the instant the javelins should be released, and then slowly pull back like they were faking the throw, and no projectiles are actually thrown (none are even visible). The throwing sound still occurs, though, and the unit card says that they're firing. But no projectiles are visible, and none of the enemy ever dies.

Even in skirmish mode, even in spread formation, whether ordered manually or left to respond to a nearby threat automatically, the same problem occurs. I'm not sure if they're still counted as using ammunition, though.

My archers work just fine, though. I'm...not yet sure whether enemy javelin/axethrower units are having the same problem.

Whenever I try to play out a battle ( Custom, Historical, In campaign etc.) the game crashes and says "Medieval 2: Total War encountered an unspecified error and will now exit." Otherwise the campaign works as long as I auto resolve battles. The setup for battles works but after the battle load screen pops up and is done loading, it crashes. I am playing version 3.2
Please help!

Google for: How to disable/turn off daylight saving setting for *your Windows version* ( insert your Windows version here). Restart your PC after that. If it doesn`t work, do as atthias suggests, only change is, these two descr_geography_new files are in your M2TW/ mods/ Third_Age_3/ data folder.

I have seen this before with javelins, I think it was misty mountain snaga. also dwarven axethrowers seem to be making my game crash, especially if I look at them close up in battle. just gonna not use them and see if I have any more problems.

for your axe trowing problem do this

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

Axethrower fix is easy: download this file, extract it using Winrar or WinZip, and copy//paste it in your M2TW/data folder. Merge FOLDERS if asked, and for FILES Copy and Replace option. NOTE! Copy paste whole models_missile folder, not just francisca.high.CAS file.
If that doesn`t work, try this then:
1. Download Notepad++ and install it if you haven`t already.

2. Locate a file called descr_projectiles.txt inside your M2TW/ mods/ Folder where TATW + DaC is installed/ data folder. ( First, make a backup of this file somewhere in case you screw up)

3. Then, Right mouse click on descr_projectiles.txt file, Edit with Notepad++, and, press CTRL+F on your keyboard, type "francisca" in ˝Find What˝ window, and then just locate this line:
Code:

How to fix it? Delete two ˝model˝ lines WHICH ARE UNDER THE RED PART, and, Remove this sign ; from THE RED PART so that it looks like this:

Also, if the folder where you have installed DAC IS NOT named Third_Age_3, but for example: Third_Age_DAC.. Then , just replace the red highlighted Third_Age_3 with the name of your folder, for example replace it with Third_Age_DAC.

Note! Do not name your folder with spaces between words, like, Third Age DAC, it needs to be named: Third_Age_DAC

Delete map.rwm file in your M2TW/ mods/ Folder where DAC is installed/ data/ world/ maps/ base folder. Test do your axethrowers crash again.

Hi there! This thread is not for fixing your issues, only for reporting them. Your issue could be that:

1) you are playing some submod for TATW which is heavily scripted, in that case, your PCs processor is not strong enough for processing the mod`s scripts and everything else. We can`t help you with that.

2) or, your TATW is installed in either Program Files or Program Files(x86) folder. In that case, move/reinstall your whole Medieval II Total War folder ( plus your mods) somewhere on your PC ( in C: Games or whatever) just as long as it is not installed in one of these two mentioned folders.

my TATW campaign and solo custom battles work fine no crashes.
I have issues when trying to play multiplayer.
it crashes when i hit next to actually host a game players can join, also the list of maps available doesn't include a lot of the custom settlements which is odd since i see youtubers posting multi-play battles over those cities. My friends and I would love some insight if anyone has any.

Ask here about Multiplayer issues. Good luck!

Hello so ive been trying to get TATW to run on my pc for the longest time and i still cannot get it to work. my current issue right now is the game wont even start up. i renamed the Third_Age_3 file as "americas" and then i go into steam and select the americas campaign and then the Third Age loading screen appears for a split second and then it returns me to desktop with no message or anything.

Hi there, and welcome to TWC Forums

This thread is not for fixing issues, only for reporting them.. but, since you are new here, we`ll let you pass with this one.

Now, what Windows do you have?

I have the same exact issue. I am using Windows 10 and running it off Steam, just downloaded this today.

[redsoxaholic]

Do you need to download 3.0 1 & 2 as well? On the download page is specifically says just to have 3.2

[ElvenKind]

Do you need to download 3.0 1 & 2 as well? On the download page is specifically says just to have 3.2

Yes, you need TATW 3.0 Part 1 and Part 2, and TATW 3.2 Patch.

First, take ownership of your main Medieval II Total War folder ( google for: How to take ownership of a folder in Windows 10).

Then, run TATW Installers, destination path must be "your" steam/.../ Medieval II Total War, change/select it manually.

At the end, disable/turn off Automatic daylight saving setting on your PC so that your battles don't crash. There are also bugfixes released, they are here: http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showt...1#post14533296

I figured it out man. so yes you do have to download both 3.0 1&2 and than download the 3.2 patch. or at least that's what I did. I noticed that at the end of the install for 3.0 part 1 it said that there were files missing but it still installed. so I deleted that file and the download file, and I redownloaded it until I got a file that was clean. I noticed that google chrome was getting me corrupted files. Internet Explorer works a lot better. but makes to check at the end of the install for each file that it says "Successfully Installed" and not say any files are missing. I'm using Windows 10 as well
