If anyone is having trouble downloading the hotfix attached to the post, just follow this link: http://www.twcenter.net/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=273410 I don't know why but when I click on the attachment without altering the URL, I'm redirected to a 1x1 .gif picture (http://www.twcenter.net/forums/attac...0&d=1364604660) and nothing is downloaded. Anyway, just trying out RTR again after some time. It's nice to see some stuff fixed from the previous versions.

Just downloaded file descr_strat.txt from attachment.
Is there an error in line 7573?
I mean word "alive" is written as "ailve".

Great news, thanks to RTR team. Time to once again conquer western mediterranean

[Stath's]

That was exactly EXACTLY what i was needing!! Thank you so much!!

Great stuff! I love the upped unit sizes thing... the fact that huge had barely 120 men for roman maniples really turned me off, I was even considering not complaining about it on the forums!

Hi! Just a few questions! How do you see that the gold patch is install in the game menu? Because you wrote that: " -Gave the Romphaiophoroi and Falxmen a two-handed animation" and the changes are not there. The Romphaiophoroi still fights with the shield strapped to their arm, using the 2 handed weapon, just like in the older version.
When I'm using the the luncher and play then it says WTR VII version 3 but after the red animations appearers and in the game options meny its stays version 1.6... I'm a bit lost

Hey guys, new to this site. I have steam and my mod downloading xp is very good....
i need instructions to how to play this mod. If you guys would help me out, that would be really great.

The steam installation directions are on the RTR VII Download Mirrors and Installation Guide which is stickied at the top of the forum.

GRAND CAMPAIGN?

Thank you for this unexpected gift. I love Christmas. I don't mean to look a gift horse in the mouth but I was wondering if Hellespont was still inaccessable. Not a big deal but I didn't see it in the changelog and I wanted to be sure my install was legit.

edit: also the "ailve" error in the descr_strat.txt file is still there in the new Gold patch. I tell you this only cuz I care and love you.

Thanks a lot for your continued work CC! While I am finding myself unable to spend much time over here any more, it is good to see that our work on RTR VII has come to an end. Time to sit back and enjoy

This game is old compare to the new one but still the gameplay of this one can't be match by the dumb rome 2 total war..
i really want to thank the people who are still making things like these.. happy 2014!

Just installed the 'Gold Patch', started a new campaign and got a CTD when the scripted battle of Heracleia loads (playing as the SPQR).

Thought it was a bad install and installed the update again. Same result

Had no CTDs on patch 3.

Sorry to hear so. Could you provide some more information? When exactly does the game crash and does it deliver an error message?

The CTD happens immediately when the scripted battle of Heraclea loads. The loading screen pops up as usual, but the bar doesn't move, immediate CTD. No error mesage though I'm using the -show_err command....

Very strange, had not a single CTD in 2 years of playing RTR VII.

Installed the gold patch to check out the new things compared to patch 3.

Oh and like I wrote, I'm playing as the S.P.Q.R.

[Maurits]

Does the game load other battles, or even custom battles while playing as SPQR?

Custom battles also CTD.

Will delete the whole RTR VII folder and try a complete reinstall of the basic version and the gold patch.

I'll tell you after that whether it's still crashing or not.

Cheers

A small issue - the script adds 24 population to Pydna, but the elephant size is 36 on huge, so in effect you can't recruit them.
