Crimson Tide 4.2 + Permanent Arrows

**Dani_Madrid** · January 06, 2011, 11:05 PM

Hi everyone,

I just install crimson tide 4.0 + 4.2 patch. All ok with the textures and effects. Later I install the permanent arrows descr_effects.txt that appears in this forum, but the arrows (and axes) don't appears anywhere. No in the ground and nothing happens when the it throwed to the enemy. Please help me. Thanks

What is Crimson Tide, that's number one.

It's a mod made by Magnus that add exellent blood, dirt, dust and frost effects on the soldiers when expose to diffrent weather and location, I've also install it and the blood look much much better than the current one. You can find it in the stainless steel minimod section.

But Dani_Madrid did you also install the white text files like descr_projectile, descr_burning_men..etc? If you do that then most rays of magic will be gone (fire of change, orcs magic, dark elf magic, empire rockets - basically anything that doesn't use vanilla fire ray texture and artillary shells model will disapear) You should only install the files inside the yellow folders unless you know how to adapt those text files to CoW 1.4

About your question, you should go to the thread that you download the mod from and ask the guy who create it directly instead of here.

I suggest you to not install the descr_projectiles (or how it's named lol) that come with CT...then install all the overlay textures and replace only the files that are bigger than the current ones...I have done it and on COW is simply astounding =)

Thanks so much for the replies, It works!!

**Dani_Madrid** · January 07, 2011, 01:35 PM

Sorry, I think that works, but not... I follow the zack fair steps but the arrows still in the ground about 3 secs, and later dissapear... help!

I suggest you not to use permanent arrows..They should be made compatible I think

I can see if I can make it compatible, but it will take a while.

**Caius Bingerus** · January 08, 2011, 04:22 AM

**The Holy Pilgrim** · January 08, 2011, 04:40 AM

Are you asking for whiter smoke and whiter torches?

**Caius Bingerus** · January 08, 2011, 04:48 AM

no, not asking for it, sorry, if i explained it like that, i meant i expierenced it like that...tried other mods, no smoke glitches, no white torches

**The Holy Pilgrim** · January 08, 2011, 04:52 AM

Could you post screens so I can see what you are talking about? But please send them through pm or make a new topic in the bug reports thread. We are straying offtopic a bit

**Caius Bingerus** · January 08, 2011, 05:54 AM

@the holy pilgrim: i made two screenies, but i don't know how to post these two, i am a total noob in such things...

Well, when typing a new post (preferably in a new thread), click on the

permanent arrows staying on the field, but are transparent, very hard to see

**The Holy Pilgrim** · January 09, 2011, 09:20 AM

That's very odd. Try using the file below. It may help.

Just extract it to your "data" folder

**Caius Bingerus** · January 09, 2011, 12:00 PM

mh, i tried your smokefix, nothing happend :-( ...thx anyway...i can't understand that, no other medieval II mod ever had such graphic glitches on my pc...
