thanks for tutorial.. blessed
I'm sorry but it did not work. I dit what you say in that post but it appears an error message saying that in bi\data\descr_sm_faction the feature "minumum horde size" is not supported
That is the bat file test i put in rome total war gold \ bi :
@echo off
cd ..\.
start RomeTW-BI.exe -show_err -mod:bi
I also tried with the other executable (RomeTW) and it happened the same
And if i create a cfg
([features]
mod = bi
[io]
file_first = true)
and edit the bat adding: ..... -mod:bi\bi.cgf
it starts the normal romeTW game and not its official barbarian invasion submod
(and morevoer it starts a new romeTW game as if i never playied it before)
What is going on? thank you
I suppose you are on Steam? That's a bummer to get BI working in a batch file - see this video by wisecoffin.
The batch file certainly works on the disk version.
yes steam, sorry for not having told you
Thank you
It works very well: the video was very clear and it was not difficult; it only requires you to download processexplorer
I suggest you to open a thread about it cause it is a problem common to many users; i could do it by myself but you are Gigantus, so… more visibility
If you want i can send you the default necessary bat; if you link it in the thread's post and you add few more information it will be very usefull
If you use once processexplorer in order to pick up that couple of necessary information and you create the first batch then for every mod you install next it is just matter of a little change in the mod name in the bat file and you can contemporary have how many mod you want doing like that, as for m2tw. And if you do not want a mod but BI itself it is enough to put where necessary:
bi instead of bi"mod name"
It can also be used to launch rtw mods only by raplacing the executable name, infact rtw and rtw-BI shares the same ID, and that was originally the problem: but now it is a resource for me
I think that it can also be used in order to launch m2tw mods but this time you also have to find and change m2tw ID, not only the executable. When I TRY WITH M2TW i'll let you know if it works.
PM me if you want me to sent you the default BATCH: it was in the video description but link is gone so i had to do it by myself
Thank you again it was really good and im happy now
I will add the link in the RTW tutorial - the batch file will be very helpful, simply paste the text here as attaching a bat file only works if it is in a zip format. And replace your personal steam reference with suitable wording like steam account reference.
There is no issue with M2TW using my short cuts in Steam - Steam's BI executable is very unique in that aspect, the disk version works fine in a simple batch file.
UPDATE
Added use of affinity command to the BAT file instruction.
