RS2.5 Issues and Problems:

Then go in data/important_stuff/alternate_player_formations and copy/paste the content of one of the folder into data.

As for the preferences editor refusing to open, I'd say that's because it does not have the permission to open the file.
Is it in your program files?

Tried them all to no avail :/ And no it is not isntalled into program files, and I've changed the security to allow full access. I'm getting quite close to buying a second copy of RTW that's not Gold and see if that does the trick

Or simply try out Galatia and stop my

Guys, I have a problem too.

When I open the launcher, there's none of the new nations. I thought it could be because I used the launcher of 'Five Good Emperors', so I copy pasted the original launcher (the one from RS2.0's files) and re-copied the launcher file of RS 2.5. I've tried playing as Armenia and it says 'please select an item' on the intro. I can play the one turn campaigns though.

Help would hugely appreciated.

The launcher version included in the 2.5 release is 1.2.2, it should be written in the top lest corner, along with the mod version (2.2β : I forgot to change it to 2.5β when we decided on the 2.5 name).

When you click on the faction, a new window should appear, with 4 tabs, the 3rd one is the swap factions one.

But if you are having the "please select an item" error, it's most likely that something is wrong with your install.
I'd suggest that you reinstall RS2.0, then the 2.5 patch to have a clean install.

The thing is, I downloaded the .rar file of the setup and it did not include a new launcher...

Started a 0-turn campaign as Rome but the three new factions weren't there.
Any ideas as to what I may have done wrong?

The new -swap- factions are not present in any of the other campaigns. They have their own campaigns, for each faction.

[Julio-Claudian]

Oh okay.

I was looking forward to making vassals of them.

I have the same problem. Any advice would be appreciated

Please, learn to read, this question was answered a hundred times this week. Also you could just read the post describing RS 2.5.

WILL DO, thanks friend!

I can't seem to save at all in 2.5 even if I have not done a campaign or anything. Both save and load buttons are disable I have to rely on the autosaves instead.

Restart your game and it should work. You probably launched another save without first quitting the game. You have to quit the game to desktop each time you want to load/reload a save other than the first time you do it each session.

Hi, I cannot join the two convoy of ships into one as usual. Both Admiral doesn't have any command star.

One more question: Why Propraetor of Corsia when reside in Aleria carry -3 Law? Is it bad effect intentionally or an error?

Thanks. That sorted my problem.

Me again.
Had my third hillfort battle now, and I must say that the bad pathfinding makes playing these battles not much fun. I guess the problem is there is so little space since the units can really only walk in super-small corridors. They can't even use some of the paths which are indicated by the ground texture (the one that leads from the plaza/market to that little field on the opposite side being the most annoying, as much of the fighting takes place near the plaza).


ps: I'm playing with alex.

pps: My (massalian) governor of Eburodunon just got the Engineering Schools trait. That city is neither greek nor has it an academy yet, so I wonder if that is working as intended... It happened, however, the round after I finished my academy in Massalia.

I think the problem is that hillforts are essentially overlaid on other settlement types, this means there are parts, like wooded tiles, that look viable for your movement but actually aren't. You've probably found the cavalry take some "interesting" routes at times. They look great though don't they

I realize that hill forts are supposed to be hard to take, but there are problems with the path finding. These are screenshots of an AI controlled Roman legion trying to enter the town of Genoa, but the individual troops in their units spread everywhere like confused ants.

I also had similar problems when making the effort to move my own troop back into the main square. The units simply do not know where to go.

[vpapako]

I install RSII, then the RS2.5 patch as per discription and when I try to run the game I get a CTD with this message:

"Script Error in Data/descr_event_images.txt, at line 2984, column 1. Unknown event string settlement_razed"

Any help?

[Ayanami030]

Crash at 127 SE, Im playing Macedon. I think I have a similar issue with Sparta which had a CTD around the same time. Anyone know how to fix it? Does 2.5 not save compitable with 2.0?

[carmir]

Does 2.5 not save compitable with 2.0?

No, it is not compitable.
