try downloading the files without doing anything else on your PC no games work etc just downloading

@sAad

They should work correctly. Otherwise I think there would have been a lot more report on a broken zip file.
Let me know if it worked for you in the meantime. if not, I will give it a look.

Incredible work. Many thanks!

Thanks for the great mod! It's really fun

I have a question..

How I can change character aging? My generals are aging too fast for my taste

If I change the descr_strat - timescale, it affects years per turn, but not the aging.
What I need to do, to change aging?

Help pls

how is your timescale set? to 2 or 4 or 8 or 12 turns per year?

@allaneox

Thanks, and you are welcome.

As far as I know you can not change how the character ages. You can only set the advancement of time.
I think if you set it to 0.5 or 2 turns per year the character will age according to time past, but events will take forever to appear and you are more than likely to have finished a campaign, before gunpowder is invented.

The aging of a character is not bound to the year, it is bound to turn number. So there is no real change, as far as i know, that will prevent the character aging "too fast".

If someone knows more, feel free to correct me

GrnEyedDvl did some research with aging and turn numbers back then: http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showt...h-proper-aging

Cannot remember the exact detail, but I believe generals age on transition from winter to summer, there are only two seasons in M2TW (and RTW, not sure about agents and admirals), and the game by default alternates from one to the other. This was intended for the timescale of 0.5, or two seasons per year. This can be observed from the script in GrnEyedDvl's post, where a season repeats for a set number of turns with script, and then changes afterwards.

In the unmodded Grand Campaign timescale is set to 2.0, so general essentially live 4 times as long as their natural age (2 / 0.5 = 4), which is why you can have your beginning generals from the 11th century still be alive to fight the Mongols in the 13th century.

I also got a submod ready for release if you are still up for it 4zumi (got working berserkers!).

[4zumi]

@Medusa0

Thanks for the insight and additional infos

And sure, I am up for it. You mean Berserkers that can lose control? I thought that this would not be possible as only animals can get out of control.

I am still thinking about how to show submods.
I think for the moment the best would be making a new thread with the title "Submod: "Whatever you want to call your mod"".

And I think about making a sticky thread accumulating all the submods with a short description and link to the appropriate thread.

[Medusa0]

You mean Berserkers that can lose control? I thought that this would not be possible as only animals can get out of control.

That is exactly how I have implemented them. I will go ahead and create the thread once I get the files compressed and uploaded somewhere.

Edit: Thread created and file added, have fun with it.

[4zumi]

Hahaha,
I may call them now the lost branch of small norwegian elephants . Thanks for your effort
I will create a sticky later this week.

@4zumi

Here to make a small report of an error I found, Playing as Holy Roman Empire, and I have a good chunk of the holy lands under my belt. Come to Edessa the province, and when ever I attempt to build the final tier of the Edessa Barracks for the Holy Land/Outremer Units, and the building is finished being built my game crashes, anyway to remedy this?

[4zumi]

@kasier

oh noes, this could have several reasons. Could you post the last few lines of the crash log and give me some more infos.
I would need to know which buildings are present in Edessa.
Is Edessa a city or a castle?

I think I know why it happens (too much units recruitable in one city), but need to confirm it.
Easiest way would be uploading your savegame, so I can try it myself.

Have you altered anything in the mod? Otherwise the savegame will not work with my setup?

If you have changed some things in the mod, like given the HRE more units to recruit or something like this, this could very well be the cause.
Because as far as I recall I had tested this exact scenario in Jerusalem (where you can recruit most of the troops) to prevent this crash happening.

So the crash cause can very well be something as simple as a missing entry in one of the text files.

[Cokjan]

Hey 4zumi, will you create something like a Media thread for people to share their screenshots?

[4zumi]

Sure, why not
