[Hunor]

edit: my version is : v2.2.0 build 15539.624940 .the cheat engine wont work with this version of game?
thx.

This is very interesting. CA should think about fixing this themselves.

Currently my .CETRAINER file supports only version 15558, and in case it fails to work for you, I suggest you try the test file in post #46.(again, it only supports version 15558)

I am sorry that I can only provide the trainer which supports version 15558. If it works for you and you want to tweak the values of those items,
you can use cheat engine to load that .CETRAINER file and change the value by choosing change hotkeys-->edit hotkey, and input desired value.

I hope you're able to keep this working, YSL. Its terrific. I could make head nor tail of the "trainer", and can only use this while your 'test' trainer works. Please do keep us able to use this...

ok am not sure what i am doing but this is odd as sometimes it works and other times it doesn't. double click or run CET trainer/double click or run cheat 6.4. then i start the game when on Rome menu i press shift and f4 at the same time then i go in to load campaign/ then press shift and f5 at the same time then i load my saved game? so what am i doing wrong? as when i go in to game and a battle occurs it is still vanilla and the units vanish, but it has worked before so i dont know if i am doing the sequence properly.

For those having trouble getting cheat engine to work consistently, I've found that opening it after you open the launcher to rome 2 (where downloads for updated mods start) and keeping it un-minimized will assure that your units don't ghost out on you .

I dont use steam to launch i use MM it is better in my opinion so are you saying launch mm then open up cheats exe?

I'm saying after you click launch on MM you will be directed first to the original launcher where all those tw games are advertised (and this is also where you'd download your mods when you run the game.) So you click launch... and before clicking the PLAY GAME button you should open up the cheat script and keep it unminimized.

Thanks for the info Simon. I personally play without mod, and thus never realise that this trainer can sometimes fail to detect Rome2.exe while using mod manager.
For people having this problem, I suggest you start cheat engine, load the .CETRAINER file, and save it as a .CT file.
Next time you can double-click on the .CT file, Run Rome 2, reach main manu, and go back to cheat engine. Click the "select a process to open" button and choose Rome2.exe from the list.
This way I think cheat engine can surely detect Rome 2 process, thus activating those tweaks normally.

It is possible to make this only for the shadows?
I hate the fact that I have shadows on Extreme, and if I get a bit away it becomes all jagged.

It does an amazing job, but I will have to wait for a superior graphics card.

You can use cheat engine to load that file and delete the unwanted terms (please keep the first group), or change hotkeys for them. Then save it as .CT file or generate a new trainer.
Activating higher quality shadow will use more VRAM and lower FPS a bit.

Cheat Engine brought very many malicious and harmful items with it... thank you so much!

[Slashas]

you must have downloaded it from some weird site, as you're the only one with that problem

Extremely interesting work. Loved your torches modifications on another thread, first time I heard about this.

Maybe others have asked before: cant this work be adapted to work as a mod instead as cheat engine etc?

Since those are all hardcoded features, the only way I know is tweaking memory machine code, which may not be done by a mod.

Why CA still insist on not reanabling this LOD....
Instead of that stupid Attila they should work on this.
BTW thx for all your efforts ysl.

It's not a matter of "work". If they wanted, they could add it a toggle in Rome II in no time, since, as ysl discovered, the implementation is rather simple.
As you may have seen, there is a toggle for the fade in Attila. They don't add it to Rome II because they consider it as a "selling point"? i don't know, but the whole situation is really mean...

[Megasalexandros]

i hope i this 20mb thingy that ca implemented today (again) wont ruin the fade out modification of Ysl cause i will be furious

EDIT, Iam so angry right noW, not only that i waited for almost an hour in order for 20mb of USELESS bites to download, not only that i had to delete 15gb of my files in order for a 20mb file to download because for some crazy reason the download was stopping and steam was saying that i have insufficient space, but after all this THE FADE OUT TOGGLE IS STILL NOT HERE AND THE MOD OF YSL IS NOT WORKING, damn damn damn, i didnt even want this so called update!!
Please YSL can you update your modification and make a file only for the fade out toggle option as before?
iT could also be useful to inform as how we can find the specific value that corresponds to the fade out thing in order to be able to make the modification ourselves and not bother you any time CA is clever enough to destroy your modification with useless and pointless mb additions to Rome2

Now thanks to ca i will have to wait for the kindness of a moder in order to make my game playable again and for no reason whatsoever, for an "update" of NEW ACHIEVEMENTS!
