    Default Cannot build startpos file after new launcher update 26/2/19

    Hi All,

    I have been creating a mod called Nova Regna for total war atilla and its a faction unlock mod. i have been creating the startpos files using assembly kit because i prefer to mod that way. however since the new update for the new CA game launcher when i go to build my mod & start pos file with BOB it fails every time. i know this is not a mod issues because i make sure to backup my assembly kit folder after each succesful build so this must be a error on CA's Part. If anyone has any ideas let me know.

    Thank you!

    Thanks for testing too! i feel like i am the only one having this issue. its frustrating because i know it worked before the update. yet i have seen peoeple saying they are still able to mod warhammer startpos just fine.

    Ya its broken for me too now, great work CA!

    Update:

    Just reinstalled the assembly kit and it worked, I guess now I just need to find a way to transfer over my startpos files from the original assembly kit.

    thats odd because i tried a reinstall and moved over my edited files and it still didnt work. did you make changes on a fresh install?

    Ya it worked with a completely new assembly kit. Trying to see if I can get it work with moved files.

    So is there another way to compile the startpos that you know of? I feel like this has happened to me multiple times now but I never hear about the larger modding teams like AE and MK having this issue.

    I just spoke to DETrooper and he said you have to revert to the old launcher, not quite sure how to do that yet but I'll update this post when I figure it out.

    If that is the case you have to right click attilla and go to properties and then hit the beta tab. from there you can use the drop down to select "launcher_release_candidate -" i just did it and i have the old launcher now. just testing my file.

    I'm interested in your mod. Can you messageme on steam at littleshepherd.

    The old launcher has worked across games since 2012. Keep what works.

    I've been struggling with Assembly Kit for the past 2 weeks.
    It used to work then fail for me, but I'm finding some consistency now.

    What guide do you use for Assembly Kit?
