Which faction are you testing?

[RandomSarmartian]

I decided to start this topic so that I will know which factions are being tested so that I can help with the others.

So to start it off I am testing my first Massilian Campaign.

Please comment so that the Devs can get a good idea of the testing going on.
Also leave a link to the topic with your current test campaign info in it.

Hope this helps.

Thanks...that's really helpful

Testing Sparta for turn 1 still.

Arverni 1-turn on ALX.exe

Are all the swap factions going to be 0-turn, or will 1-turn be implemented eventually? I'm also playing Massalia, but I am a familiar with getting the 'feel' of 1-turn's do-or-die playing style, not Masssalia's 0-turn

good thread!

EDIT: Custom Battles ATM... by the way I haven't updated the game in a while... are thureophoroi and thorakitai improved?

[tone]

No and no plans to do so.

Is anyone testing Rome especially the new military traits and decorations?

[Visarion]

No and no plans to do so.

no worry I got used to them and started to like them...

Edit: because I understand how hard it is to code these changes

[Ybbon]

I have an early campaign, only a few turns in with BI. Are the decorations/traits available pretty much from the start or do we need to advance into the campaign further to really see them kicking in? for example are there traits/decorations that occur only with the named legions?

I also have a Massilian campaign which is a few turns in, also BI, huge units and high settings for everything except grass, no anti-aliasing.
Armenian campaign but again this is just started, only had one small battle.

It would be good if someone would test the Arverni.......I choose them in particular because Tone mentioned some auto resolve issues with them and I'd like to nail the problem there.

I play them on 1-turn mostly, but usually do not auto resolve. Still, when I do, I notice/noticed nothing out of the ordinary personally.

im testing the belgae currently so ill start one of the averni up

[tone]

actually it's not just autoresolve but end turn CTDs and diplomacy CTDs

I received my replacement SVN account info today, thanks for than tone, and i should have it down before dinner. What part of the mod at this moment needs particular attention to testing ? Any specific Faction ?

[tone]

Some greek faction but also testing out the custom formations....see separate thread for that

[Martin N]

Are the formation files located in SVN when i update it, or would i have to install myself ? Just wondering so i dont overwrite files i shouldent.

[tone]

You would have to install yourself as they're currently not in SVN...I suggest you back up the old ones first and remember to delete the files you've added if you update them via SVN (these files will be included in SVN at some point). I'll let you know when this happens.

I've got a Syracuse camnpaign on the go atm, which i will post a thread for tomorrow, but i'm also planning on starting a roman campaign as well very soon. (Just posting so you dont think i've just disappeared )

[tone]

good to know

[tone]

Hi everyone, I'm aware that there are a lot of beta testers and not much sign of activity overall, just the occasional post here and there.

It would be really good to have some idea of what's going and what people are testing and regular updates on campaigns - posting at least once or twice a week I think would be a minimum requirement.

Obviously if there are technical issues like CTDs that are stopping progress, please let us know.

Sorry for not posting lately been trying to get RL stuff done......damn work why now.
