La montée de l'Empire (LME) Trouble Shooting Thread

is it possibly hidden? may have to go thru some steps to get it to show.... if not have you started game? as in vanilla... sometimes you have to start a game and get to main screen for it to load up the folder/file... possibly could be that folder location is hidden... sometimes set up that way by default on your computer...


if it's hidden use this steps provided by:

You can also access folder options for the 'Organise' drop down menu in the top left of Windows Explorer

just add a notepad document or download one of our scripts and you should be all set

Any other data about it?

Are you using other mods, too?

[pallidamors]

the workaround is to use normal or large and set the multiplier in pref script... for whatever reason base units on map start off same size no matter if it's large or ultra... strange...

do you rec a multiplier of 2?

it is fixed now

[Iutland]

greetings, i just noticed (rather belatedly) that when i start a gain with Ultra settings for my unit size that the units are at 141-180 depending, though I can recruit units with the 220 soldier strength. it only seems to be with the starting units. can you please help? how do i start the game with the same unit size that i can recruit?

PM

Starting unit sizes are defined by the campaign stratpos.esf files and as there is only one file per campaign the numbers are aligned with default/normal unit sizes.

Cheers

[ReignTerror]

x2 is good with N LME on L it gets too big and AI has seizures

[Espadas:Benson]

I did that, as my friend tried to help me through it, but it wasnt there. Im fighting steam because it wont download the exact files when i redownload as i cant play multiplayer. Have had the issue with steam for a week now and still no problem. I think i have to start the game, but it wont let me even play vanilla, and i get this error message when i start up:

Sorry for the ramble as i have had it with steams bull****

You have to play the game for the first time in order for this folder to be created. Have you?

[ReignTerror]

I have no issue with steam ever but some do... strange... Possibly just completely removing game (delete) and clearing the script folders and what not... clean slate and re download... I had that issue with ETW after I removed the ETF mod... something didn't install or messed up and my computer thought the uninstaller was a trojan so Total factions for ETW failed for me... but I could not, after deleting it and uninstalling it, start a vanilla game w/o immediate crash to desktop...

while steam should be optional to avoid those who can't support or have issues with it... it's been the best thing that has happened to me gaming wise on my computer

I have noticed this problem as well, what i do is after I have mod manager go, then I go into scripts and copy the script you can donload on this site, and then paste it into my scripts folder and leave any mods that mod manager added to the scripts.

I hate mod manager... makes things harder than they need to be lol

I hate mod manager... makes things harder than they need to be lol

never use it,not sure if it is compatible with some LME files, awhile back tried using mod manager with LME the UAI mod was not being recognized by mod manager,and it also some how got my LME 1.3 file corrupt while loading it(had to re-install the file),since then resorted back to the user script and works fine everytime...remember hearing others having problems with mod manager also.

[ReignTerror]

95% of mod issues come from Mod manager... great app but not for major mods... working on a launcher/installer idea... we'll see how badly i mess that up LOL

[pallidamors]

so what is the best line up of submods for LME?

[ReignTerror]

palli join beta team I'll send you a script

[pallidamors]

done

[ReignTerror]

I'll PM you links and a script order load to use after work

[pallidamors]

Thank you!!
