How to get M:TW battle display?

[DeeDee]

Just a quick question but how do change my battle HUD(for lack of a better word) from the classic RTW: columns taking up the majority of the screen and map in bottom left hand corner, to the MTW: map top right screen which I have seen from a few peoples screenshots.

oh also do i have to start new campaign?

This is from memory, so it might be a little different. (not on my Rome computer)

In your Rome - Total War folder, there should be a file called preferences.txt . Open it, and scroll down to find something like "Minimal display" or HUD or GUI - something like that. Change the text from "FALSE" to "TRUE", and it should work!

Again, I'm sorry I can't be more precise. But you should be able to find something that sounds like that.

its minimal_ui in the preferences.txt but the txt is in the preferences folder if its RTW 1.5
