Roman factions stand idle

[Vitag]

I've tried to find posts addressing this. I've installed RTW Gold, but whatever faction I play as, at least two of the Roman factions stand around idly and don't expand. Usually the Julii are the only ones to expand. I've played for several years and have installed/uninstalled, done the RTR thing, played BI then uninstalled, etc. I've also tried uninstalling and installing RTW Gold again, but they still stand around doing nothing. Any ideas?

Thanks.

It's the game's hardcode. There is no file to modify like Kingdoms has.

In times past when I played, they used to expand. Do people have problems with twitchy things like this when they've repeatedly installed/uninstalled? Are there ever "fragments" of past installments left over that might be causing a faction to do nothing? (I realize I'm probably not using the correct, technical words here. I hope you understand what I'm asking.)

Lustes and Darth are the only two I know that really figured out Rome's ai. Search for those.

I'll give that a shot. Thanks for your time. Appreciate it.
