    Icon3 Is there any software unit browser?

    Hi! I've got a question, I know about SS unit database http://www.pressdat.com/mtw2/ but it lacks some info and requires update here and there... Anyone heard about any program that parses Total War txt files and present the data in human readable form?

It also falsely claims that HRE can build Teutonic Chapter Houses before 1200 and recruit their knights, and also that Master Woodsmens' Guilds yield Sherwood Archers for the English..neither has ever been allowed for me. Indeed, the Building Browser doesn't even show the Master Woodsmen's Guild as being possible to obtain!"

    If you had read what it says on the website in huge letters right at the top, you would have seen that the information is for the RR/RC Compilation.

    "pressdat gives info about SS 6.1., a version like a bazillion years before 6.4"

    Wrong. See above.

    You can try to make one of those PDFs that brandybarrel made. Or you can just look at the text files. Once you get used to them, it all becomes clear. It's like learning to read the Matrix code.

    I asked because I'm writing something of this kind as a programming exercise and I was thinking about stealing few ideas. I still have a lot of things on my to-do list but it is already usable and I can upload it if anyone wants.

    Definitely steal from brandybarrel then. Those PDFs were great.
