{Sokar_Militia}Sokar Militia
{Sokar_Militia_descr}These Urban Militia are well armoured and trained troops, far superior to most militias who are little more than levied peasants. Used widely by the Alohas to garrison and defend settlements in Moorish occupied Spain and Portugal, these troops are equipped with a sword and are a useful addition to any army.
{Sokar_Militia_descr_short}Equipped with a sword, well trained and protected by heavy armour these troops are far superior to most militias.

i did it but i still got a ctd

[sokar2sokar]

nothing ... there is no message just the crash

[sokar2sokar]

thank you very much brandybarrel ...

but can you tell me what that number is ?

thank you ?

[Taiji]

That would make it crash, Brandybarrel.

Sokar, did you add 2 to the number at the top of the list?

e.g. this line: 22 serialization::archive 3 0 0 0 0 994 0 0 <- and the number to increase is in bold there.

If you add entries in battle_models you have to increase it accordingly.

[brandybarrel]

Your quite right, I didn't notice he had a space in between.
My model file is parsed differently and would look like this.
I have to look at his problem more.

EDIT: Good point Taiji

in this case he would have to increase the count by 2

[sokar2sokar]

That would make it crash, Brandybarrel.

Sokar, did you add 2 to the number at the top of the list?

e.g. this line: 22 serialization::archive 3 0 0 0 0 994 0 0 <- and the number to increase is in bold there.

If you add entries in battle_models you have to increase it accordingly.

i am sorry i can not understand you
my english is weak ...

[brandybarrel]

At the very top of the battle_models.model.db file you will see this line:

22 serialization::archive 3 0 0 0 0 8340 0

You have to increase the count of the line by 2 because you added two models.

So, in the above example, you would now have:

22 serialization::archive 3 0 0 0 0 836 0 0

[Taiji]

Also in the EDU:

dictionary sokar_Militia ; sokar Militia

Should be:

dictionary Sokar_Militia

To match the export_units.txt entry.

Both of the issues I've mentioned so far would cause the error to be logged, so perhaps they are not causing the issue at hand but they will be a problem.

[sokar2sokar]

thanks all of you
i finally did it ...

[sokar2sokar]

i am so grateful ...

[brandybarrel]

Congratulations!!!

Enjoy your new unit.

[Taiji]

Well done, Sokar

[SigniferOne]

Congrats.
