Warning..major changes:

[dvk901]

I am going to be making some changes to ALL of the campaigns here shortly to fix the 'economic\fortified city' building tree so that it works properly. Right now, there are a number of random issues going on with it because my coding is being 'misunderstood' by RTW. So I'm simplifying it. Unfortunately, this change is going to wreck all current campaigns, because I'm removing a building that is in 'descr_strat.txt' in all of the campaigns.

This isn't all bad, I guess, because I've also made changes to map_ground_types.tga to remove a lot of 'forest' ground type...especially from around settlements so that siege equipment should have an easier time moving around them. That change, as far as the file itself is concerned, has already been made...but doesn't take effect until the map is regenerated. So the above change, as it requires the map to be regenerated, will fix this as well.

All those changing files....please refrain from making changes to EDB.txt or descr_strat.txt in ANY folder other than the 'test' campaign. I will fix that one last.

Sorry for the bother...but this has to be done. I will update this post as I change each of the campaigns:


All Campaigns fixed.. Delete map.rwm before playing.

You can change the play_test, thanks for the heads up.

I have no changes that will be made which change the way buildings are laid out.

Is it save-game compatible?

1. Main Campaign only has been fixed. All saved games will cease to function.

your answer :-)

NNNOOOO!!!

but its for the better

[dvk901]

First post updated...Carthage Campaign fixed.

[Banana Jelly]

If its gonna make it better, Im ok.

[swhunter]

Great glad to hear, Mace, was coming at me in different directions!
DVK! You just saved The Spartan Athenian Kingdom.
So don't play my Spartan campaign until i see the update for Sparta?
Or i would have to start over right?

[dvk901]

I will post here when I update each campaign. At that time, each one, when you update SVN, will become useless for saved games. So far I have done only the Main Campaign and 'play_carthage'.

[swhunter]

ok.. i guess i have to wait..

[dvk901]

First post updated.

[Alavaria]

EDIT: Never mind

[dvk901]

I don't understand why you would have to 'do it all over again'? Where are you updating these files? The whole REASON for using SVN is so that we are ALL updating the latest files. If you are updating files outside of SVN, then you are defeating the purpose of SVN and things will get screwed up because you replace a file that doesn't have the changes someone else (ME, for example) made.

First post updated again.

hi...ive been away for a while but im still quite activly playing my macedonian campaign.....and im guessing i have to restart from this point...but im wondering: is the SNV updater still working?....because ive been using that way of keeping updated....so i would love to keep using it...instead of manual updating files

currently back on the forums

cnaeus,

[dvk901]

Yes, it should be working fine.

[cnaeus]

cnaeus,

[dvk901]

All campaigns are fixed. Best to delete map.rwm before starting new ones, however.

[Marku]
