Hi there,

I've just downloaded and launched your campaign mod recently - first impressions: looks great. The map is awesome, BUT, I found a potential bug and I'd like to hear your opinion on it (has anyone else encountered it, etc.).

When I'm in the 'Select faction' screen and I am browsing through the factions, clicking one faction-icon after another, at one point (after 10-15 clicks on other factions) the game crashes and it just quits. Is that actually a bug of some sort?

Cheers!

Sorry for the double-post, but just to specify - I play on Windows 7 and have regular non-steam version of the game.

Thank you for your comments, and glad you are enjoying the mod.

The faction selection anomaly is a known 'feature' of the M2TW engine. It can be improved, but in this case the effort is not worth the result.

Thanks for your reply,

I've got some further questions though

1) In the battle screen I do not see the unit banners. It's hard to distinguish who's who :[. NOTE: First, I had another error (the unit bar at the bottom was just white) and I read that you need to remove "battle.sd" file from data to fix that. Indeed, the unit bar works fine now, but wasn't that responsible for the banners as well? Is there any way I can get them back, without corrupting the unit bar yet again?

2) Does the CPU get any extra money/units on VD/VD? I play as Venice, and those Byzantines are marching out with one huge army after another. Is it just because, they've got so many regions and can afford that, or does the 'Very Difficult' AI have some sort of handicap? NOTE #2: I have disabled the garrison script.

Thanks for your help in advance

Overall, after some time spent in the KGCM - there's no doubt about it being epic.

It has been some time since I have addressed this but:
Open the medieval2.preference.cfg file in the M2TW folder with notepad and look for this line:
disable_arrow_markers = 0
If it is set to 1, change it to 0, save and try it. I can't remember if it is save game compatible or not.
I cannot remember if KGCM uses any scripts to increase the number of units/money for the AI.

[TheMightiest]

disable_arrow_marker is set to 0 :/

[TheMightiest]

Success! I have brought them back. If anyone else needs it - you need to open the file Stylix had mentioned and make sure that the item "show_banners" is set to "1".

Playing as Wales and using the cheat give_trait this Missionary 3 works fine on my install, you may want to do a reinstall and see if that fixes the problem.

Welcome to the TWC forums!
Look in the M2TW forum in the technical support section, there are a lot of posts regarding possible solutions for those using STEAM.
