Checking the logfile after a battle

[Coldstream]

Hey, I just saw someone mention that they "checked the logfile" to see how many enemy a certain person killed/captured. How would I go about doing this?

Inside your Medieval: Total War folder are your logfiles. They are text files that tell you the statistics of the battle. You can read them yourself, but that can be clumsy. There are several logfile readers out there, and an easy one is the web-based logfile reader of the FF clan. You can also download and install the Wolves' logfile reader over at totalwars.net.

The FF reader is here (http://www.thiep.com/cgi-bin/ffmtw/logread.pl). Follow the instructions.

Also you have to make sure that the logfile option is checked in game options. Any text processor will work to read them. they are in the MTW/Logfiles/ dir.
