hmmm ur right its only 228kb...so should i just try downloading it again?

[Zhuge_Liang]

Yes, the download mustn't have completed for some reason the first time.

Let me know when you get it working.

when i use achilles and his unit.After achilles throws his spears,he dont draw his sword,his hand is empty.

Hi Totalis,

Shouldn't be any issue updating manually.

Sometimes with winzip I extract to an empty folder so I have all the files but they don't overwrite anything. Then you can cut and past as you want.

You could always pick up Win RAR and use that.

[Zephyrus]

Great Mod, except for when i use achilles. His unit and himself, whenever they go beserk, just stand stil and take the hits from enemy units without fighting back. Can anyone help me fix the issue?

[Nicodemus]

Hoi Zephyrus,

I guess its the Phthian general unit ? If so change him from berserk to disciplined ( see the Feedback forum page 3 ).

[Totalis]

Greetings Nicodemus.

I would like to thank you for your TTW 4.0 Patch file in the Feedback thread. However, I am having some problems with winzip, but I was able to get my hands on the updated file that you made. So do you think there wouldn't be any problems with the game if I copied every thing in that file you updated and manually paste it on top of my current one (the one that does not allow you to use diplomats to speak with cities).

Thanks for your consideration.

Hey guys, can u tell me what faction are avaliable in this mod?

[Nicodemus]

Hoi Nikron,

From memory, factions are Troy ( of course ), the main Greeks ( ie Sparta, Athens, mycenae etc ), plus barbarians like Doria & Thrace, plus Easterners like Hittites, Lykians, Lydian, Aleyshans and the wonderful Amazons....

Just download & play

[Nikron]

Thanx Nicodemus, i downloaded and installed the game, but dont appear the shortcut of the game and i dont know what to do. Can u help me?

[Zhuge_Liang]

If you installed it properly then just start BI as normal and it will be TTW.

[Nikron]

No, i tried to run it but is not possible. When I run BI appear an error: "Generic Error: Could not read file 'data/descr_strategy_lighting.txt'. What does it mean Zhuge_Liang? Can u help with this, coz i really like this game and i cant wait.

[Nikron]

Forget about it Zhuge_Liang, i played the game and was very beautiful. I like the fact that in the map u included only a part of balkan and asia minor and that u created many cities in this mod. When u say barbarian in the game u mean illyrians and thrakians? And why the epirotes are called greeks? Epirotes are illyrians and greeks didnt exist in that period. And in asia minor at the time lived many illyrian and thrakian tribes like dardanians, paionians, phrygians etc.

[Nikron]

Hey guys, when i want to take a city dont appear the buildings of the city. And when the i want to fight the siege in the battle map happens the same. I dont see any buildings and walls. When the siege fight is loading appear a lot of errors and i have to click OK many times. How can i resolve this problem? Now im reinstalling the game again. Hope that in this way i can see buildings. Give me some instructions about this problem please.....

Hi, i'm getting a CTD when I end the turn as Troy. I've played about 40 years before I ran into this problem.
I downloaded the Fix.zip and correctly replaced the files, however now I cannot get to the main menu without a CTD. In the export_descr_unit.txt what files were altered from the 4.5 version?
Just so you know I have made one or two alterations to the files (i've been doing these things for years and know how to do them correctly), they were all working fine before the CTD (only made cities happier and increased unit group sizes).



Edit: Even with the original unmodded files the game still crashes at this point (after 38 turns to be exact).

[Zhuge_Liang]

The fix was for an earlier version, not 4.5.0.

I don't know of any reason for this to happen. The epic walls bug was fixed in v4.5.0.

It could have been something you have done yourself.

[apw2]

Well thats the thing, i replaced the modded files with the original ones and still the same problem.
I don't see what changes i made could have caused the CTD


Edit: I've found the problem and its not due to me, but i have seen this problem before elsewhere.
A city was about to build a dock/shipyard/dockyard, however for some reason it caused a CTD, i've no clue as to why this is. I'll state exactly which city it is in a moment (have several cities which finish building docks in the same turn).



Edit: Myrina cannot build a Dockyard, otherwise it will crash the game. Nothing i have modded has any effect on the docks, so I have no lcue as to the cause of this problem.

[apw2]

Also noticed that Melos is unable to build Paved Roads without causing a CTD.

There must be something wrong with your install;

The AI has managed to upgrade the port to a dockyard in this campaign;
