Increase Rome total war Campagin Size?

[shadow19433]

Hey guys i was Wondering How you can change the Unit size in campagin??

I got it to work in Custom battle at 800 men for Normal Units ( Hasati , Urban Cohorts ,Etc..)

But when i go to Campagin i got the normal 160 troop size

If you have any Suggestions or Idea's Or just wanna talk , Please drop in and Say so

After changing the unit size you should start a new campaign. If you continue an old campaign, your unit size settings will automatically change back to the way they were.

Wait, what? 800 men per unit.. thats impossible, me thinks. Isnt the max 252? well its like that in MTW2 kingdoms i think, and seeing that that game is more advanced than this one...

[shadow19433]

well yea beacasue you can go to :Computer , HP :C , Program Files , Steam , Steam Apps , Common , Rome total war , Prefrences , Prefences.txt then find UNIT_SIZE : change it to what ever you want and you can play at that size for Custom but not for Campagin and Duffman i tried that but there was no success

[DUFFMAN]

Is there a multiplier behind UNIT_SIZE?

[Hopit]

there's eather, unit_size:20/40/80/160 by default

Thats what is What is written in the Preferences File , i changed the Unit size to 600 , please tell me if i have to change anything else

[Hopit]

no. and I don't believe it works with campaign

[DUFFMAN]

Maybe if there is a way to leave it on 20/40/80/160, but have it automatically multiplied by, for example, 4? Maybe there's some more info on this in the mod threads.

[Hader]

Will not work for campaign, its hardcoded.

[Hopit]

what the geth said

[shadow19433]

damn that sucks hopfully when Roma Serructum 2 Comes out they will have more units on it , Thanks for all your help guys i really apreciate it

[empr guy]

If its hard coded they cant change anything about that. But why did you post your last message three times?

[shadow19433]

Go to Rome - Total War\data == export_descr_unit and change the following line, where XX is change to example 80. You have to do it for each and ever unit though, test it and see what happens you should have more men per unit in both campaign and custom battles. You will need to start a new game for the changes to take effect.

soldier          Units name goes here, XX, 0, 0.7

[Hopit]

60 is max there...

[Roy974]

I'm not familiar with the limitations yet. I've only been playing RTW for a few weeks and modding since 3 nights ago so i have much to learn. Thanks though, now i know not to increase units above 60.

i edited the preference thing and changed it to 400. when i do a custom battle it says the units will have 400 but when i launch the battle its back to 160? why is that?

It's hardcoded in the engine. You have to modify your executable to do that, but it is ILLEGAL. So no, you can't get more than 252.

[Ibn-Khaldun]

The maximum number of men per unit is 240.
