unit hellenistic cavalry generals bodyguard

[Mithick666]

when i play Cavalry Generals' Bodyguard has its voice in custombattle but not in campaign:help:

[Tellos Athenaios]

This may be an omission on our part. However, because I have just re-installed my Vista (and in the process wiped my HD clean) I don't at-this-point have a working RTW+EB set up.

Fortunately you can help me verify this bug by answering a couple of questions:


Do you use the Trivial Script to launch EB?
Do you use the Multi Player shortcut to launch custom battles?
Do you use the Single Player shortcut to launch campaigns?

Did/do you manually edit export_descr_units.txt (edu for short) files?

Do you use the multi player edu as a basis for custom battles?
Do you use the single player edu as a basis for campaigns?
Did/do you edit the hellenistic cavalry generals bodyguard unit you mentioned?

Did you install minimods? In particular any minimod that includes changes to export_descr_units.txt (edu for short) ?

1.- yes i use Trivial Script
1.1 yes
1.2 yes
2.-no i have a clean copy of EB installed
2.1 yes
2.2 yes
2.3 no
3.-no

it is a problem with all hellenic generals in campaing(epiros,arches,ptolomaic)

can somebody help me?:help::help:

It could be that the voice type information is different across the EDU's which would be a bug, and could explain this 'glitch'. If this information is consistent across both files then there's somehting else going on (venturing a guess: possibly because of the difference between captains and generals).

I'll look at the files later today (but it is currently 07:06 over here and I whole day ahead of me, so please be patient).

Within the SVN trunk both units no 275 (search for ";275", the unit hellenistic cavalry generals bodyguard) have the same voice types; namely Light_1. However there are numerous entries to statisfy the needs for this unit type, the next one being ;522 (immediately following ;275). Again, both versions (mp and sp) edu appear to use the same voice type, however ;522 uses a different voice type from ;275: Female_1. (And this pattern is used for the Ptolemaic bodyguard as well, this time using Medium_1.

It could be that this different voice types across various factions for conceptually the 'same' unit exposes a bug in the *other* text files? Anyways, could you please verify if this makes a difference: that is if it makes a difference whether you use a Seleukid bodyguard in campaign from a Ptolemaic or a Makedonian one; test in MP/custom battles as well?

there is not difference betwen edu sp and mp and i test mp and all they have their voice and campaing and history battles they donot have.
it is only when there is a family member.

[Tellos Athenaios]

it is only when there is a family member.

Yes I figured as much: but you can't really do much about it (and you wouldn't want to either).

[Mithick666]

then i does not have solution?
i think that only i have this problem?:shame:
