Bosporan

Paedric, do you have the large icon for Bosporan that goes in loading_screen\symbols? It's missing.

I have it at home, but not here. I probably forgot to upload it since it was in the main data folder.
However, you can always try to resize this one.

Doing a bit of work on this Bosporan campaign....it is behaving 'strangely' at the start. The loading screen (where the large symbol would show) is skipped, and a quote shows at the bottom, then after you select the faction the rest of the loading is 'overlaid' over the previous screen. The campaign loads OK, it just looks a bit cobbled for some reason.

Thanks, I don't really have the time now, I have orals soon.
The problem lies with the descr_sm_faction, IIRC.

DVK, can you (or Paedric) upload the bosporan campaign folder? Id like to give it a thorough runthrough if possible

Try updating SVN. It's in there already.

When you are working on swap faction campaigns, make CERTAIN you are using the most up to date files. The map used for this Bosporan campaign was so old that it was pre-release RS2, and dozens of cities and characters were not in the right places. Also, when I get finished with this campaign, there will be a specific EDCT and EDA, as well as specific EDU's and DMB's that can be used for any swap faction campaign. The reason, Paedric, you were having a hard time with textures and the game finding them was because 'greek_cities' had none of them in DMB.

Well thanks a lot dvk, but I've to admit I don't how it happened since I used the Sparta modfolder as a based, updated and all.

That is really weird, because when I started to investigate why so many characters and cities were misplaced, I discovered the map files were all wrong. O well, fixed.

Bear in mind, at some point our map's gonna need something of an overhaul, as lots of stuff in Armenia/Mesopotamia needs fixing in terms of locations.
