Reinforcements arent joining.

**Capital** · May 21, 2008, 02:35 PM

I haven't played Rome for ages, but I seem to remember reinforcements wouldn't join there either if the game thought your system requirements were not high enough... Is there a way to circumvent this, as RS1.5a is extremely fast and nice with 8000 men on the field, and I have no problems playing custom battles with 4 sides.

You guys have a wonderful mod here, Unbelievably really...

If this is not the right place for this question, as it may be a Rome Total War question than just delete.

Just in case, I would like to say that this is a consistent problem and has happened no less than a dozen time.

Do u have in the preference file Unlimited men on battlefield set to TRUE.

If its set to false they won't come

This answers my question, thank you.

On a side note, are the armies as big as they can be? I see in the preference file that you can change unit size.

**century x** · May 21, 2008, 09:52 PM

That won't do anything. The biggest unit is 240 plus officers. So that setting is called Huge

Or I could be wronged

You can change the unit size from the graphical options menu ingame - but, as century said, the biggest size possible is huge.

You can also change the unit size in EDU.txt, but the limit is also 240 in total (which would actually be set as 60 for 'standard', which the engine multiplies for different settings) - any more than 240 per unit CTDs.

i am. Like you said apparently the system might need a bit of tweeking first.

Does anyone know how?

Just save it to the desktop, delete the preference.txt file in the preferences folders then copy and paste the preference.txt from the desktop into the preferences folder
