Installation

[Alexander IV Aegus]

Could someone please give me precise details on how to install this mod if I didn't want to overwrite the original BI?

[Flavius Etius]

copy the BI-folder=>now you should have "bi" and "bi(2)"=> install The Crusades into "bi"=> after the installation rename "bi" to "crusades" and "bi(2)" to "bi"=>now you only need to copy the bi-shortcut and change the "...RomeTW-BI.exe" to "...RomeTW-BI.exe" -nm -show_err -mod:crusades

[Alexander IV Aegus]

In my BI folder I have some other modfoldered mods installed. Should I delete the folders from bi2?

[Flavius Etius]

no, but in "bi", because you rename "bi" to "crusades" and "bi(2)" to "bi"
In fact you can deleate the other mod folders in the crusades folder!

[Alexander IV Aegus]

Should the installation path for crusades be CA/RTW/BI or just CA/RTW?

[Flavius Etius]

Just RTW

[Alexander IV Aegus]

When I start BI I get "script error in data/descr mount.txt"
Could not find battle model for mount crusades light horse

[Flavius Etius]

This could solf the problem:
copy the files+the textures folder from "...bi\data\crusades\models_unit" and paste it in "...bi\data\models_unit"

Now i have Solve he problem but now i have another problem when it when to the copyright area it said


Cannot mount database

[Flavius Etius]

Is this what it says exactly?

[Theif55]

Yep it come out in a window saying error:cannot Mount database when it go to window it come out "script error in data/descr mount.txt"
for some rohan horse

[Flavius Etius]

Save this file into the data-folder:
http://mail.petrinum.ac.at/~m1wanscr/descr_mount.txt
P.S.: Right click on link=>save as=>...
P.P.S.: I'm not shure if you have to put it into "...rome/data" or "...rome/bi/data"
P.P.P.S.: Try both and then it should work!

finaily i can play but when i go custom most of the unit are peasant looking but it still have name and skill but i dont have the skelton

[Flavius Etius]

a)The unit cards are peasants?
Then download unit_cards.rar
b)What do you mean with the skeleton?

[Theif55]

[Flavius Etius]

The Crusader bi!

[Theif55]

[Flavius Etius]

Thanks for the answer

[Flavius Etius]

No you should post it in every faction-folder, alemanni, berbers, etc.

[Shishan]

I have not visit this site for many month my last visit here is on the 11-13-2007...i thought the MOD is finished and there will be no more updates and such...sooooooooooo i think i miz alot of new updates...if not mistaken there's 2.4 patch or update..so how do i go about? do i need to uninstall v1.0? or do i juz patched it up? plz advice

[Theif55]

You do not need to do that because i did many hard working hours on 1.0 to play it then i put the data of 2.4 into the crusade folder to sovle the problem

[Max Jagged]

No you should post it in every faction-folder, alemanni, berbers, etc.

Thank you, it works :2thumbsup:
I think I will write a post in french tongue to explain how to install the mod for French speaker.

[Flavius Etius]

That would be great, if you could make this step by step and then I could use it as a french readme!

[Mardo]

When I star original game , It says Error loading mount database.

What should I do M

[Mardo]

I have installed this mod, But it's have a poblem.

When I start the original game, Barbarrian Invasion and Alexander, It says Error loading mount database.

What should I do ?

[Flavius Etius]

You'll need the mount data base file - I think it is in a wrong folder!? (in bi/data, but it should be in Rome/data, but I'm not shure!?)

[Mardo]

Thank you for your advice.

I'll try it.

[Theodosian Walls architecture]
