    OK, well after taking a quick look over your code I can't see anyting that jumps out at me.

    Edit: (tools listed not compatible)

    Hrm ok, I've only ever used it on non-TATW related endeavors so it might not be compatible (thought it might be worth a try).

    Question: did you add the correct unit text to the "export_units.txt" in your text folder? Didn't see you mention that in your first post...

    edit: afterthought- These are javelin units yes? You could also check your descr_projectiles just to be sure there isn't a missing line that frome's added specifically for oroph's units. If this is the case the error should show up in your .log

    edit2: The text really shouldn't crash the game, I'm just trying to think of anything that might be missing...

    my log seems to stop here and keep repeating this line

    [Error] Model '20 mount_troll_elephant' uses an unknown skeleton type '' (battle_models or descr_skeleton).

    for the unit editor log

    Oh sorry wasn't specific, not the unit editor log (it seems those tools aren't TATW compatible). Attach your log for M2TW found here: C:\Program Files (x86)\SEGA\Medieval II Total War\logs --> the "system.log" file.

    Ok just to be sure open up your TATW.cfg in Notepad ++ (the .cfg is in the main tree of the Third_Age_3 folder)

    Make sure you can see this code:

    Code:
    [log]
    to = logs/system.log.txt
    ;level = * trace
    level = * error
    *sometimes the .cfg is read-only, if you need to add this code (I doubt you'll need to, this is usually present in all TATW installations) be sure to turn off read-only first, then put it back on afterwards.

    If this code is in your .cfg, load up a game then re-produce the crash. It should result in a .log file.

    Code:
    [log]
    to = logs/system.log.txt
    ;level = * trace
    level = * error
    just came by to say you might want to change this to the following to find the error

    Code:
    [log]
    to = logs/system.log.txt
    level = * trace
    ;level = * error

    Hi,

    Is there any way to 'force' Gondor to build Osgiliath while playing another faction? Or does any command exist to do the same? Thanks!

    There is nothing preventing the AI from building the Huge Stonewall in Osgiliath East and subsequently the Citadel in West. I have never seen them do it though.

    It would have to be scripted.

    Do you have the folder logs or Medieval II Total War ​folder opened when starting the game? Least for me that disable the log from being created, by some odd reason.

    Hey Ngugi - how are you today my favourite Moderator /off-topic

    Could it be the folder permissions on windows Vista? i.e. if you have installed in /Program Files/

    as for program files being windows protected folders being the problem i can't see it stopping the function generally if it was going to stop the function it would do it when you run the .exe file .. but hiding the files from us that is another story

    Is the virtual store issue not the same as what I mentioned?

    yes and no , changing permissions is the solution to the virtual store issue not the issue itself .

    and from what you wrote i thought you meant that because it was a protected folder that could cause a problem , you know those folders where you get the "do you want to allow changes to these files" messages when you try to do something .

    anyways i got there in the end , my question still stands though does anyone know for sure if virtual store hides the logs?? because that could be happening here ...

    Ahh - gotcha, thanks for clarifying that.

    Not sure if virtual store hides the logs. I would ask Gigantus if I were you.
