Corsair Invasion v1.0 Bugs & Issues Thread

[Amroth]

This is the thread to post any bugs and other issues you may encounter in Corsair Invasion v1.0. Do not post problems with installation here. We will try to keep an up-to-date list here in the first post, so you don't have to repost issues that have already been noticed.

List of Issues:

- Freeze or crash when selecting units in battle. Solution: Change Sound Provider in Options > Audio Settings to Miles Fast 2D Positional Audio.
- Descr Strat error. Solution: You have RTW Gold, and BI 1.4 - you need to patch to BI 1.6.
- Missing unit cards: Dragonshield Riders, Blackroot Vale Bowmen, Dúnedanic Settlers, Harondor Sword Levies
- Dúnedanic and Barbarian event images still need to be done
- Some models still placeholders/WIP
- Edhellond blocks fleets built in Tarnost. Solution: Right click on the army button on the campaign ui, and find the unit you just built, select it, and then you can move it.
- Riddermark Scouts have black secondary weapon.
- CTD if attempt to select "change to: Top 5 Factions" in faction stats' scroll.
- Harad's initial armies too large/strong which makes it too easy to win as Harad?
- Easterling's need better chance of creating stronger trade (increase cattle and horse value)?
- Some archer units overpowered (reduce ammo)?
- Wonder Capture buildings have no icons or constructed images.
- Sprites need generating and coding for most units (not most Easterlings).

There is a way i found to be able to select fleets built in Tarnost. Right click on the army button on the campaign ui, and find the unit you just built, select it and voila, you can move it.

That's right, Lusted...we should have included this in the readme but forgot. Still, it's nice for people to work out We will list it here though as otherwise people will keep on mentioning it and we will not be able to rebuke them for not having read the Bugs & Issues Thread :tooth: . Attempts to make the ship selectable in the normal way failed and it is doubtful the wonder model placement will allow it; so the tab-select will have to be used.

the rohan ridemark archers have black secondary weapons when they charge in

Can someone help? I keep getting this error when the game loads. Any ideas? I had a clean install and followed all the instructions carefully.

That file has not been modded if I remember correctly. This means that it must exist in a folder where it cannot - by that path stated - find the cas file. The cas file should exist however and the only answer I can imagine is that the mod has not been installed to the correct folder.

Have you reviewed the screen shot helps?

ive got an issue when in battle on campaign. im using reunited kingdoms and when i click a unit the whole game just crashes. i can play custom battles and the historical battle fine tho. ive tried 3 times and if i click on a unit i have to restart my computer.
does look like an amazing mod tho from what i have seen.
any ideas on what it could be or should i reinstall the game and see if the problem carrys on?

[Amroth]

Hmm, that is strange. Usually such an issue is related to the audio settings, so I'd check whether you are using Miles under Audio Options, and if you are not, switch to that and try again.

[Titus Protius]

aah right ill try it thanks for fast reply. i was using using miles fast for the customs and changed it to creative at the end of the historical battle.

EDIT
that seems to have fixed the problem. did 2 battles to check and they were fine. easiest solution i had yet lol. thanks for fast reply again.

Hello again! I've found a new bug . In the city of Emyn Arnen, you can train the White Company (elite archers), training time is 3 turns. When a unit is completed, they are not appearing in the city, so cannot use them.


........



This is not a bug.... , I figured it out now . So, the White Company is not a single unit, they are the bodyguards of a commander! If you train them, you train a commander also. It was not clear to me that this will happen... I have to think frist, then post

[Tittils]

The White Company is a recruitable general unit. So if the new captain in Emyn Arnen has a White Company bodyguard.
Oh, and it is also only recruitable in Emyn Arnen.

descr_building_vegetation is not only unmodded it does not even exist in BI or our mod of BI in CI!

It is a RTW data folder file.

You have installed or set it up incorrectly. Please review the instructions and the screenshot helps.

Apoc, you have gain a new trait.

just a quick question... were sprites made?? battles in this mod with about 5000 men are 20 fps which is fine for me but when i have more then 7000 it turns into a slide show

[CaptainCernick]

I have a tiny little issue.
When I move my units around on the campaign map, they move a lot quicker than I'm used to. I actually prefer the slower pace at which they move in the vanilla game (without double-clicking). Was this intentional and is there a way I can reverse this?

[Amroth]

I believe you can do so by going to Rome - Total War > bi > ci > preferences and opening preferences.txt. Scroll down to CAMPAIGN_MAP_SPEED_UP:TRUE and change that to CAMPAIGN_MAP_SPEED_UP:FALSE. I have not done it myself, but I think that will work.

That worked. Thanks!

- some unit shadows start blinking when zooming out
- bodyguards of Rhûn are too expensive, as chariots are not that effective against close infantry formations (like shield walls)
- heavy cavalry formation seems not close enough to provide an effective charge

[Ciaran S]

I´ve already posted it in the release announcement threat, but since it is an issue, I´ll take the liberty of repeating myself: Are Gondors cavalry units supposed to be that cheap? They cost less than half the price of a unit of Kings Spears or Men at Arms, considering their power (judging from their stats), that feels extremely cheap. A typo maybe?

[Titus Protius]

cant you just press space bar to turn down the speed the men move on the campaign map?
or is it a different thing you on about.

[MasterOfNone]

Sprites are not done for most factions.


The Reunited Kingdom's cavalry is more expensive than their infantry counterparts. For example, Gondorian Swordsmen (unit size 40 on normal) cost 314 Mirian. Their mounted counterparts (of which there are but 12 on normal) cost 150 Mirian. This means that Gondorian Swordsmen (infantry) cost 7.85 Mirian per soldier whilst the Gondorian Horsemen (their mounted counterparts) cost 12.5 Mirian per soldier. That's well over 50% more expensive.
