I started a new Iceni campaign after the latest patch and the AI is constantly spamming me with agents.
After turn 30 every turn one of my generals gets assasinated, my armies get harrassed or...

I can confirm this bug as well. I started a Iceni campaign after the latest patch and every battle is in the snow even in the South of England in what appears to be the middle of summer on the...

Every TW game has needed modding to make it really enjoyable. People are forgeting the dreadful CAI and BAI in Rome and Medieval 2, take off the rose coloured glasses folks.

Try going back and...

I haven't used this for a while, what is the load order? If something is at the top of the list does that get overwritten by something further down the list that has conflicts with it? Or is it the...

I don't know about battle entities, I'm going to try modding unit_armour_types and unit_shield_types as soon as it's available in the PFM. They both have an armour value and increasing this would...

Can you share the workaround, I have the same issue.

The unit cards are twice the size of the ones in the gameplay videos we saw before release. Why did someone think it was a good idea to make them take up half the screen? I have to keep minimising...

In previous games there was a minimal interface toggle that got rid of a lot of the clutter, this game seriously needs something similar, but to take the army panel back to previous game dimensions....

I'm playing at 1400x900 and the army panel takes up a third of the screen, I don't see any way to reduce this to anything like previous games where it was a thin strip across the bottom. If anyone...

Combat Mission series, gives me the tactical battlefield challenge that is sadly missing in M2TW.

Can't wait for CMSF later this month.

Thankfully I've modded my export_descr_buildings so siege weapons are only available every 10 turns and I made them more expensive as well so I get a more realistic number. One of the problems is the...

I'm starting to find this a real game breaker.

Every time the enemy breaks down my gates with
a ram and looks like the're going to attack and I think
I'm in for a good battle, the ai general...

How can you force the ai to use more castle units? I don't see how you can
do this in the export_descr_buildings, unless your increasing the recruit pool and
decreasing recharge time for castle...

Does the mass descr_mount actually effect the killing power or only
how many guys get thrown in the air? The charge bonus seems to be
more important to kill rate.

No they can't be recruited, I think it is a balancing thing as England
get the billmen.

You can add them in with a simple edit just like the dismounted gothic
knights for HRE.

Make sure you get an alliance with the pope it seems to help.

Also try to complete some of those little tasks he assigns like build a
church or whatever and avoid fighting with a faction when he...

What the hell does this mean? Harder difficulties mean what? that ai troops
run around and don't engage?

I've started two different danish campaigns and in both I get a unusually
high number of papal elections. The pope seems to last about 3 turns then
croaks. Scotland also keeps sieging Oslo for one...

I think the battle ai is alot better too.

Especially when you initiate a sally battle the ai troops no
longer hang around their siege equipment. Now if it could only
recognise when it's being...

I want warfare in the classic medieval period, gunpowder for me dosen't fit
my view of what that is, so I modded the descr_events.txt file so gunpowder dosen't come in till 250 turns into the game....

Pick a spot away from the target with enough distance
for the cav to get a full head of steam up before they
reach the target.

Pick a spot with few obstacles between the cav and the
target...

Did you patch over 1.0 or 1.1?

Sounds like what you've done is right.

I don't know if the registry edit makes a
difference but that's what I did and have
never had a problem with 1.2 official or unofficial
ones. :)

Make sure you remove all traces of the old installation.

That means removing the folder where it was installed and
remove the sega entry in your registry using regedit.

reboot and try again,...

Can I request you please do Hungary as a priority.

They are the ugliest looking nation in the game as no one has
skinned them yet. :sick:

The Byz look very nice btw.

The AI builds units based on cost effectiveness, it seems it tries to get the most firepower
it can for least amount of money.

This decision making AI unfortunately has somehow crept into M2TW....

I recommend Burreks blood and dirt mod - but choose the extra bloody
option when you install it. It gives the units a blood splatter like a someones
just cut a major artery.

The entire Hungarian faction needs a re skin by someone
talented. I'd like to play as Hungary but those awful green
and day glow orange colours turn me off.

Exactly, it makes winning a sally battle alot easier when the guys
you are attacking are trying to push a siege tower around.

The battlefield AI is moribund and therefore so easy to defeat using flanking cavalry, the battles have become so predictable i.e. an easy win against supposedly greater odds is almost a certainty.

I think Napoleonic TW would be great. There would still be melee combat with
infantry charging each other and of course cavalry getting involved. I think they'd have to do away
with the armour...

The game is too easy if you do that, and much more rewarding in the long
run if you can rally from a bad defeat and take sweet revenge on the enemy.

I remember a danish stack exterminated the...

If it's the same bug as I and others occasionally get where you get 3 seconds of smooth play then a second of freeze repeatedly, then it's not your computer, this happens in sieges from time to time....

Sorry if this is in the wrong forum.

I think a great idea for the next TW would be 'named stacks'.

This would be very nice indeed if the next TW is set in Napoleonic era.

The idea is once...

If you decline the invitation to build a guild in a city - maybe the money is
tight at the moment - do you get another chance to build that guild again
in the same city, or is it a one time only...

I found the aggressive pope so annoying that I had to labotimise him
(I modded the game) so now he just sits in rome and dosen't go anywhere.

edit your descr_events.txt file

find the lines that refer to the gunpowder event
and comment them out using the ;

Denmark are also cruel, in my campaign as France they just exterminated the population of Paris, which I found a bit harsh. :(

The major game breaking bug for me is the way units get stuck on walls.

I was just in the middle of a great fortress defence battle when half of the
attacking ai army decided to go up a set of...

right click on the xml file and click edit. The file will open in Notepad.

Search the text for 'papal' when you find a box that says something about
papal ai you will see lines of code.
