Der Deutsche Ritterorden

[S.P.Q.R. Praetorian]

I was finally able to figure out the battlefield CTD. It appeared to be the descr_formations_ai and the descr_formations. It took me a long time to figure this out as I had played dozens of battles with no problems, until I reinstalled my computer. To fix the battle CTD you will need to delete these files which can be found in your SEGA folder in /mods/--------/data/

Der Deutsche Ritterorden Mod



The Kingdoms 1.5 Patch will be required to play with DDR 2 because of the addition of stone forts. As a reminder, the Teuton Campaign is required for this to play. It will overwrite your vanilla campaign.



This mod is designed to add many new features to the Teutonic Campaign, such as new Teutonic skins, new loading screens, and much more. This mod is intended to take the bland vanilla Teutonic Campaign and spice it up with tons of new features. I hope you enjoy it.

New strat map teuton models
New strat map textures

Glad you like it

Is there unit cards and unit info cards for the new TO skins like in SS 6.1! IF not are you going to add some!

[S.P.Q.R. Praetorian]

Yes, I am making them right now. The new UI cards are already in the mod, I am making unit info cards now for new version.

[MCDS2]

could you help me out? I installed your mod but now some my text is missing could you help me getting it back or fix it!

[S.P.Q.R. Praetorian]

What text? Like for battlefield? Is there text missing in your menu? If so, did you unpack some files? I have installed the v1.0 from the public installer 3 times to look for issues and haven't had that.

[MCDS2]

the menu text is missing and none of my files are unpacked!

[S.P.Q.R. Praetorian]

This is very wierd to say the least. I installed from the installer I made for the public about 3 times. Each time I deleted the previous install and reinstalled. So it must be your game. Did you install the Kingdoms 1.5 patch. If you havent that may be the problem.

Thanks

Hopefully version 2 will be final version, and released in a week. I got unit info cards done after killing my wrists. Now for some loading screens and other goodies, and I will move onto the Crusades campaign.

[MCDS2]

i'll get back to you and see if what you said work. i just haven't got round to doing and i'm going out soon! thats great news about the crusades campaign!

[S.P.Q.R. Praetorian]

Yup. If I can get mapping down well enough, I am going to make that map huge with more land and provinces.

[S.P.Q.R. Praetorian]

As a side note, there will be a very high possibility of having Hungary included in one of the upcoming releases.

[dragonclaw]

What are the new animations?

[S.P.Q.R. Praetorian]

New battle animations when soldiers are fighting and prebattle where they stretch themselves and prepare for battle.

[MCDS2]

the 1.5 patch is installed, on my game! would that be something to do with it? Good news about Hungary! I tried it today but the text still doesn't work but your mod isn't the only one this happens with it happens with Zeph's golden horde mod!

[S.P.Q.R. Praetorian]

Right now, I am extremely confused. I am 100% positive this is not the mods doing this. I am thinking something must have got messed up with your install. Ask in the help threads as this is beyond me figuring out. If the folder called "text" isn't in the data folder, I can't imagine what else it would be.


Yes, I want to add about 20-30 more provinces for the map I am working on now, and maybe even make it bigger later on. I've always wanted a mod with both Teutons and Bohemia.

If I feel like it I may just include most all of East Europe if I can figure out this error I have.:\

[MCDS2]

yeah its just menu text on the battlefield is missing and when you open the building browser some text is missing! sounds like a good idea!

Im thinking something must be invalid with your M2TW install. When you begin a battle where the "Start Battle" text is, is there just a bell there?
