bug with new unit sizes ?

[nuada]

Top o the mornin to ya ! I was just working my way through a Julii campaign when I noticed some unusual merc units for hire ! I don’t normally use mercs, but the two peasant style unit cards caught my attention. Apparently Vibius, who was near Pluvium at the time was allowed to recruit Bedouin camel archers, Amazon chariot archers and Judean zealots !! I checked the new unit.txt file against the old one and discovered the original 4.6 file does not contain the same references. Also unless I am missing something, there does not appear to be any texture/sprite/cas files to support the Amazon unit. (which I am sure would cause a CTD) If I am correct I hope my little observation is of some use to your developments, if not, sorry to waste youre time

Oh ! while I think of it, I am trying a new campaign with unit size set to 120 in my preferences file, I found the large setting to be...well, not large at all I found the huge settings to be a little too taxing for my system especially when more than two armies were involved. (centrino 1.7, 1g ram, radeon x300) The 120 size seems to be working out fine, any body else tried it ?

Thats odd all I edited from the 4.6 file was the unit Sizes are you sure your file isnt corrupt?

On the amazons they use the Stock Skin and model, so there is NO model or Skin for SPQR use.

I'll take a look for the 5.0 file since its different than the 4.6 beta file, I just quickly modified that one for testing of existing SPQR players.

Thanks for the tip, I'll look into it.

EDIT: I checked out the files, whats different? I see nothing that should allow them to be recruited, you sure some wre not recruited somewhere else them imported over? Also someone else had some issues with black peasants and it was a corrupted install of the 4.6 version.

Anyway be more specific as I dont see anything wrong atleast with 5.0.

I think they are normal as Mercs?
