"Error loading mount database"

[ahmed5]

I've reinstalled BI many times and keep getting this error when i try to play "Error laoding mount database - unkown mount type "steppe chosen horsemen" in descr_mount.txt" or something similar.

What do i do?

Thanks

EDIT: i cant find descr_mount.txt

Bi uses the descr_mount file in the RTW data folder, it looks like your mount file is really messed, reinstall everytihng, it is your best bet im afraid.

Incase your not sure he means install rtw.

Tell me we can keep save games, though? I got this error too and I'm not looking forward to reinstalling

Just take a copy of your save game and put it somewhere safe. After you re-install just copy the file(s) back to the save folder (it may not be there until you launch the game).

um... the others gave nice messages

Reread Lusted's post. He's right. Reinstall.

Thanks for the advice, but I figured out that the error only occurred when I tried to launch through Steam.

Glad it worked out.
