Error when saving files

**Skouser** · September 30, 2007, 12:59 PM

Just got a new comp and am having to re-mod m2:tw and i have a few questions:

1. can someone give me a link to the unpacker.

2. any really good mods that increase AI.

3. how do you stop rebellions completely.

4. whenevr i try and change some text in descr_strat and save it it comes up with error:

Cannot create the C:\Program Files\SEGA\Medieval II Total War\data\world\maps\campaign\imperial_campaign\descr_strat.txt file

make sure the path is correct

can anyone give any help - especially teh last one (and im using Vista)

thanks

1. The unpacker should be in the tools/unpacker folder.

2. Havent tried it, but DarthMod was very good for rtw, probably even better in m2tw.

3. descr_strat and descr_campaign_db.xml i think

4. you need to remove the 'read only' atribute.

1. can someone give me a link to the unpacker.

Download patch 1.2 or higher and it is in the data/tools folder (doing so from memory, can someone check?).

2. any really good mods that increase AI.

Lusted's CAI which I believe is in Lands to Conquer but can also be downloaded separately, and Grandviz's Ultimate AI. Both can be found in the hosted modifications section/download section.

3. how do you stop rebellions completely.

Change the rebel_uprising line in the descr_strat folder to a high number such as 999.

4. whenevr i try and change some text in descr_strat and save it it comes up with error:

Right click/properties and untick read only before opening the file.
