Version 5.9.4

Re: Version 5.9.1

i downloaded XGM 5.9.1 and when i try to play a campaign it crashes and closes on me..... i redownloaded but the same thing keeps happening....is there something i am not doing right?

*** i don't know if its because of windows vista but every XGM i play crashes between 15 to 25 turns, so i save often..... but 5.9.1 won't even let me start...as it immediately closes after i hit play (arrow to start campaign)....
 
Re: Version 5.9.1

I have a long list of units to add (mostly from the new unit proposals thread), but I haven't decided anything about the order. We will all have to wait and see. ;)


Just curious, did you have some Thracians in mind. I have to ask, I love those guys.:yes:
 
Re: Version 5.9.1

I've downloaded this new version and keep getting crashes trying to start a campaign up.

Never had a problem with XGM before at all.

EDIT: Tried re-downloading and installing but no luck.

I am using vista but this hasn't lead to any other problems with XGM at all.

DBH: I've uninstalled everything and am reinstalling now....so i will let you know if that was the problem indeed....

that being said....

Since i will be downloading 5.9.1---is there anything else i can download to maximize my experience with XGM? besides BI, i have downloaded a music file that breaks the monotony of RTW but never anything else..... just wondering if i'm missing out on video SS, voice packs, etc etc.....
 
Re: Version 5.9.1

thanks Spartan 198.... i added Redfox's extras...

DBH: i had to go back to the previous XGM....it worked without a hitch... the 5.9.1 everything was "clean" but it still crashed at the start....
 
Re: Version 5.9.1

DBH: i'm using BI with reduced bonus, prometheus cities, fatigue off, land bridges on, loyalty on, i think this is it...as i stated before i my laptop uses vista (and since then.....i suffer crashes every so often).....but for some reason everything works well enough on 5.8.26 (previous version)....say for a few crashes every so often.
 
Re: Version 5.9.1

I play this version of xgm with Alexander.exe and it works great.
 
Re: Version 5.9.1

Is the town Dimmidi gonna stay unconquerable in the Deserta region?
 
Re: Version 5.9.1

Yes. That is because it makes the campaign more balanced.
It just bugs me that I can't conqueror the whole map:( and how would I create my own faction. Ex-A Chinese faction or just copy and paste a faction like saba.

Re: Version 5.9.1

There will be more EDU changes (new units added) but not for a couple of weeks at least.

I know you're a one man gang and all that but it has been two weeks and two days since you released 5.9. So, how close are we to seeing the new units you mentioned earlier? :) I had a little trouble with my computer and in the end removed R:TW and any mods that were installed as well. When I came back to download 5.9 I saw that new units would be coming soon so I held off. It seems as if I don't completely delete the entire old install of XGM then when the new one installs over it I get a message that I need to update my R:TW/BI to 1.6. Then when I try to play it can't find the file to open it. :doh: If I completely remove XGM totally before the install then it works without a hitch. So, thats my reason for wondering at the progress. I just don't want to get started and then go through all that with a new version on the horizon. I've been having some XGM withdrawal so I was hoping I could feed my addiction soon. :cool:
 
Re: Version 5.9.1

hey Dime,
after i installed this version and loaded XGM up i got:

Script Error in xgm/data/descr_rebel_factions.txt, at line 10, column 21
rebel unit type 'barb infantry' not found in unit_db

is there something wrong with the my installation or my game?
 
Re: Version 5.9.1

After completely reinstalling RTW (+patches) and XGM I tried it again and still the same error it kicks me out when I try and start any battle/campaign map.

No error messages just vista telling me RTW has stopped working. Going to try the old XGM as I never had a problem with that.

Playing on basic RTW on vista.

Full bonus, prometheus cities, fatigue on, land bridges on, loyalty on, minimal borders
 
Re: Version 5.9.1

Did you remember to completely wipe it? e.g. go into program files and finding the Activision folder or whatever you used and deleting that.
 
Re: Version 5.9.1

Yep I did Diomede

Old XGM 5.8.22 works

Something has obviously changed.

Could it be something weird like I need it to generate a new map or similar?
