Old mod not showing text in campaign UI

[GeneralG]

Recently downloaded the old Deus lo Vult Americas expanded submod and the UI text in the campaign is not working. (see attached for image of what I mean) Don't know if this is the right place to ask but was wondering how to fix it and what files to play around with. cheers for any help.

Did you follow the instructions at the bottom of that submod's page?

ADVICE: Extract zip on mods folder. You need to copy original medieval2.preference.cfg on main folder to dlv_americas.cfg and create on same folder a dlv_americas.bat file with this content:

                              cd ..\..
start kingdoms.exe @mods\dlv_americas\dlv_americas.cfg

Pleased to receive any criticism, feedback or improvement, thank you!

Without doing this, you will get the missing text bug as discussed in this thread.

Yes I have to the best of my knowledge. I copied everything from
medieval2.preference and pasted it below:
[features]
editor = true
mod = mods/dlv_americas
in the dlv_americas.cfg file. and i put that code line in the batch file. i take it the mod wouldn't even load up without a functioning bat file. What have I done wrong? Thanks for the help awell.

Post the entire config and batch file from the mod. You can use the "contentbox" syntax to make it expandable so your comment isn't massive. I find it strange that the mod creator didn't just include these files in his mod but is instead asking users to set them up for themselves. Sounds like a recipe for needless confusion.

This is what i have in the CFG file:

dlv_americas

features]editor = true mod = mods/dlv_americas [audio] enable = 1 master_vol = 100 music_vol = 70 provider = Miles Fast 2D Positional Audio sfx_vol = 60 speech_enable = 1 speech_vol = 100 sub_faction_accents = 1 [camera] default_in_battle = rts move = 50 restrict = 0 rotate = 50 [controls] campaign_scroll_max_zoom = 30 campaign_scroll_min_zoom = 30 keyset = 0 [game] advanced_stats_always = 0 advisor_verbosity = 0 ai_factions = skip allusers = 1 auto_save = 0 blind_advisor = 0 campaign_map_game_speed = 99 campaign_map_speed_up = 1 campaign_num_time_play = 122 chat_msg_duration = 10000 disable_arrow_markers = 0 disable_events = 0 english = 0 event_cutscenes = 0 fatigue = 1 first_time_play = 0 gamespy_save_passwrd = 1 label_characters = 0 label_settlements = 1 micromanage_all_settlements = 1 morale = 1 mute_advisor = 0 no_campaign_battle_time_limit = 1 pref_factions_played = 218717503 tutorial_battle_played = 0 tutorial_path = norman_prologue/battle_of_hastings unit_size = huge unlimited_men_on_battlefield = 1 use_quickchat = 0 [hotseat] autoresolve_battles = 1 disable_console = 0 disable_papal_elections = 1 passwords = 0 save_prefs = 1 update_ai_camera = 1 validate_diplomacy = 1 [network] use_ip = use_port = 27750 [ui] SA_cards = show buttons = show full_battle_HUD = 1 radar = show show_tooltips = 1 unit_cards = show [video] anisotropic_level = 16 anti_alias_mode = off antialiasing = 0 assassination_movies = 0 autodetect = 0 battle_resolution = 1920 1080 bloom = 1 building_detail = high campaign_resolution = 1920 1080 depth_shadows = 2 depth_shadows_resolution = 3 effect_quality = highest event_movies = 1 gamma = 128 grass_distance = 75 ground_buffers_per_node = 4 ground_cover_buffers_per_node = 4 infiltration_movies = 1 model_buffers_per_node = 4 no_background_fmv = 0 reflection = 1 sabotage_movies = 1 shader = 2 show_banners = 0 show_package_litter = 1 skip_mip_levels = 0 splashes = 1 sprite_buffers_per_node = 4 stencil_shadows = 1 subtitles = 0 terrain_quality = custom texture_filtering = 2 unit_detail = higher vegetation = 1 vegetation_quality = high vsync = 1 water_buffers_per_node = 4 widescreen = 1

I cant seem to upload the batch file. But if opened with notepad ++ its go the comand line

cd ..\..
start kingdoms.exe @mods\dlv_americas\dlv_americas.cfg

Looks to me like an issue created by renaming a DLC folder and using it as mod folder. Here is the approach that alpaca mentioned in post #2: Creating a World - Fixing the block graphic Bug
