**Caius Britannicus** · June 02, 2006, 09:53 AM

doesn't the battle editor come with RTW..... you just have to use a command to unlock it.

-battle_editor i think

**Epistolary Richard** · June 02, 2006, 12:44 PM

-enable_editor in your command line (within the properties of your shortcut).

**Scipio Africanuss** · June 02, 2006, 01:41 PM

do you mean preferences plz tell me where i can find

**makanyane** · June 02, 2006, 02:51 PM

I've tried -enable_editor on shortcut, as someone elsewhere said it opened map editor, didn't seem to open any new options, does this only work on some versions? or is there somewhere obscure to find it after start up?

That "map editor" is the battle editor, you can create new historical battles using it.

no, command line!

It is the Battle Editor, and you need vanilla patched to 1.3 for it to be enabled. Just type in -enable_editor in the command line, right here where it says all this

"C:\Program Files\Activision\Rome - Total War\RomeTW.exe"

And make it this -enable_editor

"C:\Program Files\Activision\Rome - Total War\RomeTW.exe" -enable_editor

Dont forget to put a space between the .exe" and -enable_editor

To get to the command line, just right click on the RTW shortcut, select Properties, then you will see the Command Line near the top of the box.

That what you wanted?

EDIT: Oh, also, when enabled run RTW, and in the options menu there will be a new option for it.

EDIT: You may also want to check this out, though it is pretty much all i just said. http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showt...762#post993762

hmm, i tested the Battle editor and i found out that you could see the whole island of Sicily from the mountain Etna!, far out man... (vanilla map)
but i have a prob, i cant find the "Port" model, i want to create an port battle...

**Lusted** · September 12, 2006, 10:57 AM

Ports don't appear on the battle map, there is no port model as far as im aware.

**jaklei** · September 12, 2006, 12:48 PM

well you can see them pretty clearly in an port battle with very high graphics, its like the ships, i had one shore battle once with an helot of ships at the shore, i could see them clearly, and i saw an 3D model not the regular longdistance 2d model that you are used to see, it just made me curious, i would use them, and maybe someway create an naval battle mod.... just let them act as elephants... and one unit in each...hmm **brainstorming**
