MY game crashes out while at the battle load screen. Im not certain why.

I am using some new units;

XGM's Athenian Marine Archers
XGM's Macedonian Hypaspists

Hades' Guerriers Spartiates lourds
Hades' Spartiate Cataphracts

A little background, Im running RTW 1.2 with M.M. V2.0

I think my problem may be with the Spartiate Cataphracts... maybe I was supposed to add something to the descr_mount, but theres nothing saying I should need to in his readme...

Ive gotten the Guerriers Spartiates lourds (spartiate heavy infantry) to load and used them in battle but I cant quite pin down if its the cataphracts or archers Im having trouble with. The game only crashes when one of those two units is involved. I can sim battles just fine but like I said before, when I try to load the battle it crashes out.

Any advice?

I know some of these units were created for RTW builds beyond 1.2, but I dont think this should affect unit playing ability. Am I wrong?

Any help would be great... FYI, I use -show_err and Ive gotten nothing back about it so it must not be "simple."


***Edit***

fs_s1_archer

this was the original designation for the Athenian Marine Archer, however since I had never seen it before I presumed it to be a mistake... could this have been causing my CTD's?

***Edit***

Could it have been sprite files? Are these necessary for the game to load to battle?

have u mooded other files u no fiddled with them wen u was a bit unsure because u could of made a mistake the most simplist and hardly noticable thing could make the game crash

I havent modded any other files that would have caused the CTD where its at, this i know for sure.

***Update*** I got a battle to load using the athenian archers after I added the .spr files for them... however, the spartiate catapracts that hades made didnt come with any new sprites.

and no, Im a fairly experienced modded, and I am anal about backing up every small piece of work I do after every change I make and then testing it to make sure I havent screwed something up. Im fairly certain that Ive isolated the problem down to .spr files... the problem is I dont have the .spr file for hades spartiate cataphracts, anyone know where I can find these?

No, you may just have ot do without sprites for the unit.

[Abraxas]

well thats regretable since the cavalry unit still wont load... le sigh. Adding the sprites fixed the archers but apparently not the Cav. *double le sigh*

Lusted, why must you always be the bearer of bad news?
