[Jubal]

Here you go. Install instructions, just paste the data folder over your WHTW data folder to replace the relevant files.

Should fix:
- Lack of screeching for screeching units
- Chaos Horsemen bug
- (Hopefully) erratic Chaos general bug

Also:
- Some small improvements to a few building descriptions
- Knights of Myrmidia now recruitable as campaign mercs in Estalia

I've been waiting years for this.

Well, your wait is over

[Seduce]

I grow impatient! 
Patience is the key 

[Jubal]

Well, get on and download it then

[Seduce]

There is another problem. The Banshee's range attack is gone and now they're a melee unit but can still use screach.

[Jubal]

Yeah, that would be because you can't have screech on a ranged unit, which was the problem to start with. :p

(OK so to give a bit more on that, the engine could hypothetically handle it but it's tied to animation files which I can't edit)

Hey, so i just installed the patch but am still experiencing the marauder horseman crash

any further ideas?

[Jubal]

That's weird. Are you using show_err, and has it given you any error messages? Have you tried fully uninstalling/reinstalling the mod and patch?

[uzgobdamighty23]

Hi Jubal,

i havent used show error but through testing each unit ive discovered that the marauder horsemen are ifne, its the chaos general in the imperial campaign that is causing windows to display a ' ROME 1 has encountered a rpoblem and must close'.

Its only the general, any idea what i need to fix? having a look through previous threads now.
I tried the switching to lesser general but then WHTW wouldnt even start :s

Many thanks for your time!

[Jubal]

Sounds like you made a typo when switching to the lesser general - post the relevant sections of the file for that and I can check

[uzgobdamighty23]

Hi,

I just copied and pasted the lesser general up and it didnt work.

Hm, can't see anything wrong. Anyway, try reversing that and instead doing it by changing the linkages in descr_character.txt, that's what I've done before and had it work OK.

[comrade_general]

help mod dont work

[uzgobdamighty23]

How do I change the linkages?

Sorry if youve said it somewhere before, quite tired today!

thanks
