Thread: Checking difficulty mid campaign

    Default Checking difficulty mid campaign

    Just dug up some old save file of a campaign I was playing ages ago. Any way to check and see what the difficulty settings are? Just regular old Medieval 2 Total War, no Kingdoms, no mod.

    Looks like a damn fine little download, but it seems that the program cannot locate my save files. Where in the M2:TW directory are the save files located?

    If you're on Vista or windows 7, it's saved at

    C:\Users\[your username]\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files (x86)\SEGA\Medieval II Total War\saves

    Thanks anyway though.

    EDIT: Disregard that, fiddled around abit and got it to work for me

    You need to disable UAC for saving the games in its appropriate place.

    A more easier way in future is to name your savegame, for example like this: spain m-m, or venice h-m

    I just had to figure this out myself.

    One method is to copy the medieval2.exe from the program files folder to the equivalent folder in the users folder (and then restart Med Manager).

    Yep, thats what I ended up doing.

    Might try my hand at getting it to work with DarthMod tomorrow

    An easier way is to open the savegame in question with notepad and then search the word difficulty. The first time it finds the word it has the difficulty typed in right after it

    system.exception: error getting current year

    is there error I'm getting when I try to open a save, I've moved the "saves" folder and the save games within, and my kingdoms and medievalII exe's into the MedManager installation folder.

    Any idea what this error is ? Thanks
