may i change factions to Malikate of Sindh?

[Poqzt]

I'm having problems as usual with vista.

I open my bc CFG file with word pad and this is what I can see:

[features]
mod = broken_crescent

[video]
movies = false

[io]
file_first = true[video]
widescreen=0
[game]
allusers=1


Should I just copy the text needed for our hotseat and put it below??

[Dane325]

not that this would be, but many other mods have been extremely buggy, is this one and these necessary fixes, how exactly do i preform them

[Empedocles]

There are lot's of quickfixes for BC avaiable at their forums. I will advise the team not to start the campaing too soon so we can catch up with this fixes.

Armatus, when do you plan to start the campaing?

Looks like there is some formating from wordpad in there are you not able to open it with notepad? I'm running xp, if all else fails I'll send you my config file and you can swap yours out.

Before we start I will defintally review all the fix items we need. and send out a pm to the group. For now refer the link in the main post for Quick fix, apply the ones that are required, only apply the others if you have experiencing problems. It won't hurt either way.

As soon as I get word from our last member then I'll do a run down on what exactly is needed before we start.

Oops only just noticed the PM about this. I've played it and it isn't bad (SS is still my favourite). I'm more into the Western countries than the ones covered in this game but the mod is very well done. As the Kingdom of Jerusalem is gone I have no idea who I'll play so just give me anything. I have very little knowledge of the non Crusader Kingdoms anyway

And Armatus don't add me to anymore games lol. I've got two hotseat games going besides this (An SS one and Britannia) and I've also signed up to two Civ IV PBEM lol... ENOUGH ALREADY!!!!

[Empedocles]

you can take the kingdom of cilicia-armenia if you want your soldiers to defend christendom.
regards

[Gavmundo]

I'm not bothered either way not being a fan of religion at all but I just know more about the Crusader states due to what I learned in history. Don't know much about the other kingdoms but as I say I'm not bothered who I play I can manage anyone.

[Armatus]

Alright let's shoot for Sunday as a start date.

[Empedocles]

excellent!!!

Perhaps the Ghazniz (or whatever they're called)? It would have been my second choice becuase they have a good position and look cool.

Edit: Downloaded Notepad and open the bc CFG file which reads:

[features]
mod = broken_crescent
[video]
widescreen=0
movies = false
[game]
allusers=1

Perhaps you'll have to send me your config.

[Gavmundo]

and look cool.

Good enough for me! lol. As long as no one asks me to pronounce it I'll be fine with them lol

[Osterhase]

I will play Ghaznawid Sultanate

[Gavmundo]

Ever had the feeling you've been gazumped??

[Armatus]

ok which is it? you two decide, I had already put Gav down for Georgia because they are Christian faction more like rome and might be more familar

So Osterhase want's The Sultanate of Ghazni too?

[Poqzt]

Is The Fuzz going to play? I thought he didn't have time?

[Osterhase]

No Problem.
I`m flexible.
Can I play The turkish Sultanate?

[Gavmundo]

I'll go with that then - Georgia if everyone's happy!? Best go start a new SP game to get used to it
