Total War: ATTILA - Assembly Kit Hotfix!

[Darren_CA]

Hey guys, we’ve deployed a hotfix to the Total War: ATTILA Assembly Kit BETA, hopefully this will now alleviate some of the issues you were having. We want to thank you for your feedback and help in bringing some of these issues to our attention.


Feel free to post your feedback in this thread, or create your own in our dedicated section, I'll be doing fresh sweeps of the forum to gather any more issues and I'll be working through them, responding to some of your queries.


We'll also be posting that tutorial today, which you can find on our wiki when it goes live.


Here is the changelist:
• Fixed BoB sometimes failing to process start_pos.
• Fixed BoB failing to convert building .cs2 files .
• Fixed tree’s being placed in TEd not showing up in game.
• Fixed grass being impossible to remove in certain regions.
• Fixed certain placed objects causing BoB processing to fail.
• Total War: Attila only supports 3ds max 2014 and below, 2015 was shipped in the assembly kit in error and has since been removed.




Happy modding!

Sorry from the other thread ^^

Hey I known this bug from the release, and haven't reported it (shame on me)

But everytime I try to "add mesh reference" it crash, in tweak, I mostly by pass it by putting the files in the right folder, and restart it.

it is just a minor annoyance.

I just tested it again to be sure, and it still crashed.

And Can't wait to get started with startops, I just have some units to finish first, and some buildings.

I'll add it to the list of known issues. Thanks!

Anyone else still getting this issue when trying to save a battlefield? I did a barebones map with deployment zones and tried to save it as a battlefield and this always seems to happen.

Very happy to see this fixed, and hoping modders make the most out of these tools for Attila. There's a lot of cool stuff that can be done. I know a few modders who have some nice things planned.

On another note, can we get some info on potential music tools? Is that in the pipeline or a possibility for Attila?

EDIT - Also, on the issue people are having with BOB, it seems to stem entirely from the terrain data (at least in my case). BOB takes excessively long to load up if you have it. Deleting it should cause BOB to load up rather fast. With it, people I know have to wait about 10 minutes for BOB to initially open.

So, if BOB isn't working, you may just have to wait a while if you're dead set on having the terrain data.

And a second thing I have forgotten about.

Every time I try to load uniform and select a ship, it instead want to create a new definition.
and can't select to create a new definition for ships.

In one of the threads at the official TW forums, there was mention of tutorials and walkthrough videos (made by Darren_CA, I presume) for the tools. Are those still going to be posted soon?

[Mr.Jox]

There's still a problem with converting buildings and campaign map props/settlement models through BOB.
Also in Variant Editor if you open your own definition file wiht own models, test animations seem not to work, unlike if you load uniform, then it works. But uniform I suppose has only vanilla units..

I can't download the assembly kit from steam, for some reason i can only download the hotfix...

But do you still get an error from Ted when trying to save as battlefield like the post below yours?

[Cpt. Cortes]

I think i found a bug, any time i try to add a unit_resource to one region, BOB crash, any other change in any table, just the unit_resource. Its a bug or its made by CA?


EDIT: It seems to be an aleatory error, some times crash, others dont, changing the same value everytime.

Anyone else still getting this issue when trying to save a battlefield? I did a barebones map with deployment zones and tried to save it as a battlefield and this always seems to happen.

I have the same issue over and over again, even with an empty map where I only added deployment zones.

[MathiasOfAthens]

Everyone has this issue. Except for CA. It doesnt seem like the can do anything to fix it either. Darren makes a few posts and says hes reading our mesgs and his only advice is to reinstall everything. And that didnt help anyone.

Ted obviously doesnt work. Or Bob is broken.

Sucks it worked for Shogun II but not for Attila.

[Karnil Vark Khaitan]

Just a nice heads up ^^

We can use the models from Arena to rome 2 or Attila
it is awesome, really hope for a two handed sword soon ^^

[Spadde]

Will TED ever be functional or has CA given up on it now?

[Mr.Jox]

Seems like CA just reads our messages but doesn't answer. You can't save your settlement (save as battlefield) and you can't convert buildings so they can be used in ur settlements! Means we can do exactly what we could do for Rome2 minus sound modding.

[MathiasOfAthens]

Yeah I know Mr. J. I am posting on the forum as Komenos. Its ing annoying.

I can understand they do not have a budget to give us mod tools and they are pretty much working on their own free time to produce these tools but it just sucks that they released something that doesnt work for us and they dont really post to say hey we are working on a fix now.


What is Darren suppose to be doing other than talking to the fans on the forum.

[SanderP]

I'll add it to the list of known issues. Thanks!

Add "full campaign map editing tools" to that list, too. Please!
