    Default Problem with the Elite Units of the East DLC

    So I just bought this dlc and I found a problem with it. The units show up and all that, but the problem is... NONE OF THE UNIT NAMES SHOW UP!!!! It's just heavy cavalry this, heavy cavalry that and dragoons. I don't want the unit type--I want the names! Anybody who can help me?

    Yeah, I have a more interesting problem - I didn't buy the DLC, but it downloaded anyway and made gameplay with Darthmod UC impossible (unavoidable CTD on program launch).

    Go CA! Go Steam! You so awesome!

    Nothing inexplicable about it. The local game files need to be the same so people can play multiplayer. If it didn't download every DLC, you wouldn't be able to play with other people who were using said DLC.
    believe in nothing.

    I have a question--don't think of me as a dunce, but I have no technical knowledge --I got to properties and I can't seem to find the "local files".

    The tab at the top of the properties window there a series of tabs and one says local files. Click that and then the verify button.

    Okay, I did what you said, but the names still won't show up.

    Make sure you delete all mods and mod files. I did a fresh Empire install and now the names and descriptions show up just fine.

    This happens when you have mods that adds new units (with unit-names etc.), since these new unit-names aren't in the localization file from those mods.

    Oh, I get it. But I think I'd rather have these units without names than all of my units from mods being nameless. Perhaps Swiss Halberdier and Applelover will fix this problem for UCP 5.5. They have unit descriptions for the other DLC, so they'll probably do this for this one too.
