Question? Best Battle Ai for SS

**Separatist** · November 09, 2009, 12:35 PM

I have looked through many posts and I am confused. The default AI of SS was very disappointing for me so I decided to get a new Battle AI. I am currently using files of X battle AI on SS6.2 (XAI, the files used are the two xml files and a desc_pathfinding ). Now I am thinking about using the Real recruitment, etc mod.
Which do you think is the best and compatible battle AI for SS 6.2?
Can I install Point Blank's RR mod over SS6.2 or Do I need to install it on 6.1? I think installing over 6.2 should not be a problem . Can someone answer this?
I don't know much about the RR Rc mods any details and useful info on what will be best for SS will be helpful. There are so many sub mods for SS and you have BGR 1V , RC of Point Blank etc etc mods that I am confused on what to use. Please Help.

Thanking You.

You can install it over 6.2 at least if it's designed for 6.2 version. Although 6.1 RR/RC should work as well, I don't know much about it.
In my opinion you may try Lusted's Improved Battle AI (in my sig) or Germanicu5's ReallyBadAI found in Submods forum.

As said, I don't know a lot about RR/RC so I can't help you better.

For stability purposes it is better to install RR/RC over 6.1. You can try installing over 6.2 but if you get crashes, then you should reinstall SS 6.0 and 6.1 and then install RR/RC

To do this, you must have the installers left. Otherwise you have to download the whole mod again.
I keep them on my desktop in a separate folder.

Well. I think If the RCRR mod uses all the files of 6.2 patch then there should be no problem as they will simply be overwritten. But since I do not know what files are used I installed them again.

About the Question I asked earlier. Well X Battle seems to have some compatibility problem with SSteel. and especially with RCRR submod. I noticed the crossbowmen not keeping distance in battle when on keep distance. (Can't remember what the command was called) and few other things. However the XBAI does make your battles better for Stainless Steel. (Didn't test it for SS with RCRR mod)
It seems (this is a name)ReallyBadAI of Germanicu5 is developed for SS and SS with RCRR mod. It should work quite nicely but I have not played enough with BadAI to make a solid statement.

I have one question. I liked the loading screens of Stainless Steel very much.
How can I add the starting flash screen (v6.1) and loading screens of Stainless steel in the submod of SS with RCRR?

Thank you in advance.
More payment later

I really appreciate the group of people who made a mod like Stainless Steel. It made a game like Medieval truly enjoyable for me. I want to thank all the people who made Stainless Steel .
