A few various questions

[JoeyJubb]

I've just become quite bored of my Roman campaign and when I started an Illyrian one it CTD'd on my first seige! So now I've uninstalled everything and reinstalled up to BI 1.6 in eager anticipation of RTRPE 1.7 I'm playing BI at the moment because however historically inaccurate it is; it's damn good fun!

Anyway, I've been thinking of a few things that I can't seem to find an answer to, so here goes:

1) Will all the mods of PE work okay with 1.7 or will they need to be updated too?
2) Will RTR 7.0 use religion and loyalty like BI does?
3) Would making diplomats start off with higher influence lead to slightly more reasonable AI diplomacy? I've noticed that the AI almost never accepts a ceasefire unless you use an influential diplomat.
4) What do I need to back up in my vanilla RTW install to prevent me from having to reinstall when RTR 7.0 does eventually come out?

Thanks in advance

1. it will not work but most RTRPE mods will become available on 1.7
2.Ask the RTR gold team not platinium :tooth:
3. i noticed this too ;] it sounds a bit dumb but in real life what a stupid guy will talk whit a stupid diplomat ? who knows ? you shut try ;]
4.Well you can use jsgme.exe but the more and the more you are using the bigger the chance that a some file was left by a mod we must kill jonesoft for this bug !!! anyways see ya

So how would I make diplomats start with at least 5 influence then?
