Hey guys playing as skaven and haven't had any problems (on turn 84), there have been crashes but they are probably a function of my computer and don't recur when the game is restarted. One thing I would say is Tomb kings are too weak, on both campaigns they have been wiped out by chaos dwarves very soon into the game, also have you completely removed diplomacy because as Skaven the chaos dwarves were my main enemy but when chaos becomes undivided they are my ally?! and there's nothing I can do to change that. However, all in all 1.6 is looking good guys, great work! Need to integrate some of the new units into armies though (e.g. centigors for beastman)
Thanks guys.

Let me help you make it happen !

[wcparker]

Can I get a link to the test version? Or is it too late?

[TheMetalfreak360]

Yes! I love the mod so much, I would really love to help you guys out anyway I can, what is needed for testing? New factions the events? Or? If I have the time (and I think I have for the next 4 days) then I will write on a paper every bug/error I come across and try to explain the situation and what I did before I met the problem.

Cheers team for your great work. I have no skills to use on helping you with the mod beside being a beta tester.

Hi all,

I received the 1.6 link for testing ... cannot make the game work ( i tried Everything ), most of cases its a crash from loading screen without any info. If anyone got this problem/solved it PLS Help. I really would like to help test this great game.

Dunno if this will help ya or not it worked for me when I was having trouble. delete the map.rwm file in data/world/maps/base

[mattgrevy]

Okay i have had a few 60+ turn campaigns as the orcs started up and thus far it works great.
There has only been some minor crashes after ending a turn and these were fixed by loading the auto-save created in the process of clicking end turn.

And in terms of the new Night goblin unit "Goblin Fanatics" did they not get a special animation or am i wrong. If they did and its implemented its not showing at least in my copy.

- Over and out!

A question for anyone about Battle Pilgrim's english language update: Should my main menu be in English? Right now it comes up blank, and I want to make sure I installed everything properly.

[Gigantus]

Check if your data\text\menu_english.TXT file has English text entries, eg {UI_MAIN_MENU_LOAD_GAME_INFO}Load a previously saved game
If yes, then delete the data\text\menu_english.STRING.BIN file and start the game again


Any timeline when this patch will be released?

[wcparker]

That did fix the menus, but I have some odd problems. When I try to start a campaign I click Single Player -> Storm of Chaos -> Start, and it takes me back to the Single Player menu. I haven't been able to start a game.

[Gigantus]

Did you delete the map.rwm file n the data\world\maps\base folder? Otherwise there will be a message in the log about the cause of the error, it is usually descr_strat related.

Please let Battle Pilgrim know that he should provide his English language update WITH the string.bin files.

[wcparker]

Thanks! I'm missing all sorts of files, according to the log. Lots of portraits, and more critically some imperialcampaign/maps files. I'm going to reinstall from scratch and see if it helps.

[Gigantus]

If the log says 'missing' I wouldn't be too concerned - most of the time it's looking for file formats that are not used, are faction variants or are in the packs (were they are eventually found). It does get a bit tricky if that 'missing' comes just before the crash.

That's the last and presumably critical line. Note that I have MW2 on Steam; I believe installing to an existing mod folder is correct? Any suggestions? Thanks for all your help!
