v0.72 Collected Bug List

[Mongoose]

Playing as the Ptolemaio, I've noticed that the Brigands around Memphis have the vanilla body guard design.

[Callum Murray]

As the Iberians when I conquered Arse I could recruit Libyan spearmen there.

Also Rebel Family Members in Iberia have so far all been the Iberian Javelin Cavalry.

[Moros]

Well, I guess they are spearmen since they get a bonus against cavalry, but the units shows up on the battlefield with swords. However, the unit flag at the bottom of the screen and the image in the description both carry spears.


A few other custom battle issues discovered while making this screenshot:

• Caledonian Rhyfelwyr and Doryphoroi Pontikoi appear double in the custom battle unit lists of the factions they are available too.
• The Sweboz have a unit with the odd name Germanic_ infantry_feralharjoz and without description.
• Sweboz Merjoz and Godelic Hammerinfantry still feature the vanilla standardbearers.

Sorry for being not very thorough, but I am playing the game on and off right now, so my observations are rather randomly made.

I believe that they could make a shieldwall or something if they had defence on? then if you attack they would draw spears and later switch back to swords or something like that. I can't remember correctly.

[Ludens]

I did not switch on or off guard-mode, if that is what you mean (or aren't you responding to my last post?). I merely ordered my Hypaspistai to charge the Rycalware. Both Rycalware and Hypaspistai had swords except when charging or when apparently fighting in close-combat (that is, in the fight the rear ranks did hold swords, but the fighting soldiers not). This last observation may be wrong, however, as it only struck me when reviewing the screenshots of the battle. I will test it straight away.

[Geoffrey S]

Just a minor thing I don't think I saw in your list: when zoomed out on the campaign map, the Spanish banner over cities reverts to the vanilla RTW banner rather than remaining as the new EB one.

I was wrong. The soldiers used swords as well as spears in close combat. However, after some time fighting most of the fighting soldiers would switch to spears, especially when guard mode was on (it was off by default for the Hypaspistai). This was benificial, as it allowed the second rank to fight as well. The rear ranks (those not participating in the fight) would hold swords.

[SwordsMaster]

I'm just thinking that maybe they switch to the weapon that allows for more frequent attacks...

[Chester]

Not sure if this is intentional, but Rome (the city not the faction) is unable to built Camillian Reform Soldiers. I built the highest setting barracks available, which is the 20,000 (20 turn) barrack.

[Simetrical]

Thanks to everyone for your updates. To all EB members, please look over the list and see if there's anything where you can provide a status update.

[Amenophis]

In addition to not being able to build Polybian troops in Rome after the Romani Reforms event, I can't seem to recruit Velites or Equites anywhere. Old style Equites are still available in Rome.

Great mod so far, BTW.

[edyzmedieval]

Many rebel generals have normal troops as bodyguards and even placeholders.

Rebel general - Sinope
Rebel general - the city north-east of Marakanda(Seleukid)(forgot the name of the city)
Rebel general - Kyrene(Numidian Cavalry Placeholder as bodyguards)

No CTD's so far,it's occuring well for me.

[Teutobod II]

bug or beta, that is the question ?

in my Swebos campain when I sieged the habukoz and heruskos my general´s unit couldn´t drop the ram (there was no icon button for it)
he only dropped it when he was attacked in the process of defending himself

there are no buttons for changing formations
there is only warcry for special unit ability

maybe some cosmetic correction to the borders should be done : e.g. between Skanzaz and Kimbroz... the border goes around the edge of the island

[Kampfduck]

Rome CTD,

playing as rome, everytime i want to do a turn (with scripting off or turned on)
in the year 254bc, i get this ctd. I have a saved file, wich i will upload.

This is probably unfixable. RTW wasn't designed to have infantry generals. One way to work around the problem is to hit withdraw and then immediately cancel.

What do you mean? Post a screenshot.

You mean the general's?

I'll add it to the list.

Rome CTD,

Okay, we'll look into it.

by default the general always gets the ram

in RTW on the lower right hand side of the battle screen there was a golden button where you could choose from different army formations - it is faded out in EB

no no, the general has the rallying function, some have warcries but others have nothing, sorry I havent listed it, must do so later

That sounds like the Group Formation button, it's working for me in EB although I do not use it. Are you sure you selected some Grouped units?

thats what I mean, I have a German game so I have to guess about the translation

I am sure I did, but I better check again

[edyzmedieval]

Arabia is full of bugs.
Playing as Seleukid, 262BC, no CTD's so far, going excellent.

-Bab El Mandeb description missing
-Rebel General in Carna has Numidian Javelinmen as bodyguards
-Rebel General in Maryab has Numidian Cavalry Placeholder as bodyguards
-Rebel General in Tamane has Numidian Javelinmen as bodyguards

[Keba]

Not sure if this is supposed to be a bug or a feature, but ...

The Seleukid starting province of Astauene (that is, the sttlement Asaak, in the NNE of the faction's territory) starts off with two basic farm buildings (those that give +1 to food output).

Just thought I'd point in case it's not a planned feature.

A timely correction Keba. Thanks, I was just looking for some of those.

[Conqueror]

Elephants still cause soldiers to fly all over the place.

[Ludens]

Stonehenge description contains typo: romanitems instead of Roman items. Incidentally, I distinctly recall visiting a larger stone circle in England, so that part of the description may need to be adjusted too.

I suddenly recalled it again. The stone circle I visited was at Avebury and is the greatest in the world. However, whereas Stongehenge actually has been constructed to some extent, Avebury is just a number of stones put in a circle. Also, there isn't much left of it when compared to Stonehenge.

[Keba]

After several hours of playing ... I noticed that you seem to have mixed up the stratmap models for mount and lumber resources.

I have a camel model on the map that says (actually all of them say it, I checked) Timber - valuable trade resource, and a log model that says Mounts - allows the recruitment of horse and camel mounted units.

Don't know if this happened to anyone else, it could just be a defective install or something.

[Teleklos Archelaou]

It's a known bug. Don't worry.

[Jebus]

Playing as the Romans, they keep on calling themselves Hellenic.

examples:
- If you have the most armies, a message will come saying that 'Hellenic' armies are the strongest of the world
- If you lost a gate building in a siege, a message will come saying that it is an insult for 'Hellenic' courage
- If you kill an enemy general, it says you killed an enemy of the Hellenes
- If one of your cities is bribed, it says that the Gods are ashamed of such honourless Hellenes

etc. etc.

I guess it's a leftover from giving the Romans the Seleucid slot. There are also similar problems; like the Eastern Hellenic factions having Roman walls, and Rome having Greek walls etc.

Nothing game-breaking, though. Just thought I'd mention it.

[Three63]

Nevermind, Delete

[Jebus]

Perhaps the 'Atheist' and the 'Pious' trait should be mutually exclusive.

[Chester]

There were athiest back then? I thought every one at least paid lip service to the Gods, in fear they might kill them or something.

[Jebus]

Hence the +2 to unrest, I presume.

[Malrubius]

Perhaps the 'Atheist' and the 'Pious' trait should be mutually exclusive.

They are mutually exclusive. This is something I've seen caused by making a change to a traits file and loading a saved game. Then you can get all sorts of weird results.

Another possibility is that the files from the installation aren't the files I turned in. If you check your Data\export_descr_character_traits.txt, and do a search for Pious and PublicAtheism, you should see this:

Trait Pious
    Characters family
    NoGoingBackLevel 4
    AntiTraits Sacrilegious, PublicAtheism, Pragmatic

and this:

Trait PublicAtheism
    Characters family
    ExcludeCultures barbarian
    NoGoingBackLevel 5
    AntiTraits PublicFaith, ReligiousMania, Pious, Superstitious

The two traits are antitraits to each other, so you can't have both of them at once.

If your files don't have the above code, and you didn't change them, it could explain a lot of things...
