[TGC 0.98 public alpha II+patch 001] Released version 09.03.2021

[will19011]

Thanks for the reply. I checked my file and it is the same as yours. Is it perhaps that somehow the preferences are not being executed for some reason because I am on Mac? When the campaign first starts it shows all the settings of the hotseat. Auto resolve for example is enabled, yet in my preferences it is disabled. I do not run the mod by running the .bat file because of course Mac cannot run this file type. To run it I have the parameters set in the Feral Interactive MED2 launcher as this:--features.mod=mods/TGC_melt.

Thanks again

ahh ok,
then the changes need to be made in the "normal" me2tw cfg file or the mac equivalent of it.
maybe you can look at a file_first option, but this seems to be included.

[will19011]

I actually came here to post that I had found a solution and yes it is to modify the normal config file. Hopefully this will help others or you could sticky it as a fix for Mac users.

You must go to the normal config file while is not in the steamapps/med2 folder as it would be on Windows.

The file is in users/username/library/applicationsupport/feralinteractive/med2/vfs/local/preferences/medieval2.preference.cfg

I copied the hotseat parameters from the TGC.cfg file and replaced the ones in the medieval2.preference.cfg file and now it works normally. No hotseat notification at the start of a campaign and none at the beginning of a turn.

You must also check "unlock all factions" in the Feral Interactive MED2 launcher.

Thanks for the help and hopefully this will help others as well.

Hi, first of all loved this new version, it brings a lot more flavour in the italian peninsula, second of all, do you guys have and prediction of when the opcional music for this version of the mod will be ready ? Cause the vannila M2 music does not fit this mod at all lol

[_Tartaros_]

i need to adjust the music and there where some new suggestions for music.
maybe i will just patch the music_pack to the new version.

[_Tartaros_]

i can´t see much in the log, but the .bik reference could be something wrong in the video settings.
did you get the crash when ending the turn or entering a battlemap?

if you have an endturn crash try to reload 2 or 3 turns and replay the game. Eastern Romans have alot of scripts going on in the first 25 turns

[ptolemaiosVI]

again, ctd turn 67 (romans) can't continue even if I go back a few turns.
is there any events at that turn?

[_Tartaros_]

no, there´s only a bulgarian event at turn 68, but romans don´t get this.

did you have any battle or see the other faction siege out a settlement? how doeas it crash (endturn?)

[Darhan]

[The_Duluthian]

When will the finalized version of the mod be released?

[AnthoniusII]

Soon i had a loooong brake from modding but soon i will continue to finilise the Muslim Armies. Its a huge task.
The 2nd huge task is to finilise the Slavic armies (Great Moravia and Serbia plus the versions of Slavs that will serve under Rus and the mercenary ones and finally the rebels).
The 3rd step is to re-create the Bulgarian Roster (now it has the oldest models) and create its shadow faction.
