Doing a mod

[Dukezer0]

I am sure there are ppl out there like me who don't like some of the production due to time lines in history (no varangian guards in late is a classic example.)

So i decided to change some things like better unit choice for the almohads (and everyone for that matter), no time line restrictions and better unit availability, ie alumughavars and turcopoles.

But everything went wrong http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/eek.gif
Got an error line 2 row 20 janissarybows.

The strange thing is, i didn't change this unit at all. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif

Could some one help me, or shall i start from the drawing board doing 1 unit at a time http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/mecry.gif

Duke, I'm moving this to the Dungeon since you can post there now. You'll get a better response to your problem there.

I'll welcome you to the community, Dukezer. Your always welcome down here.

That happens to be common error, probably the most common. I can't say exactly what you've done wrong, but a good guess is the tab spacing. If not, find row 2 line 20 "janissarybows" and try to find out what's wrong, like delete the tabs behind it, and put them back yourself, that's strangely worked for me a cupple times. However, if that's not the problem, just go back to the original, or the most recent version that worked, and try doing your modding again.

Last of my strange tips, move row 2 down (highlight both lines, sinces they're really one, if your using wordpad) cut, and paste it at the bottom. It sounds like that wouldn't do anything, but give it a try.

Best of luck, and again welcome.

Thanx for the info patrick.

As for the prob, i copied and pasted the original janissarybows to my moded file, but it still didn't work.

As for going back, i commited a fatal error http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/frown.gif
NO BACK UP http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/mecry.gif http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/mecry.gif http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/mecry.gif

I moded the whole thing in 1 sitting.

Oh well, i'll try your theory, if it doesn't work, then i will mod each unit and play test them 1 by 1. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/redface.gif http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/angry.gif

Once again, thanx.
