DeadPages Fix,
tested in MTW VI v2.01

the download and install instructions are here

Local Recent Uploads directory (http://www.totalwar.org/Downloads/Mtw_Uploads/MTWupload/)

DEADPAGE_COORDS.zip
i have tested this file in game and it works,

== ==
a theoretical only guide to use in making a mod are included,

i have NOT yet tested this file with any major mods,
but it should work PROVIDED you follow my instructions,
wether it will work with a complete new unit prod file - i dont think so,
i think you need to use a copy of crusader as a begin point and i think all existing units need to remain in that file.
new units need to be added at the end of the file

feedback on this and its use in a mod is important,
so i can tweak the instructions,

cheers,
B.

There is function dealing with DEADPAGE_COORDS.TXT problems implemented in Dragon MTW Editor (http://www.totalwar.org/cgi-bin/forum/ikonboard.cgi?act=ST;f=5;t=19592;st=0). It can fix many errors automatically and whenever it can’t it prints appropriate report.

Cheers

I've used the Vikings prod file as a base too but it's pretty much the same as crusader but with vikings units added.

I made a unit called TK_Spearmen and input it right under the existing spearmen in the unitprod file.

Then in deadpagecoords I put the new info at the end. I have not tried it with units in the custom folders though. My TK_Spearmen reside in the same dirs as the normal Spearmen.

I tryed your Deadpage corods with my mod last night, but sadly it did not work with my new units. I tryed some battles with the old units and they worked fine.
I tok your Deadpage corods and added my new units with the new Deadpage corods.

Is it possible to have new units working without removing some of the old ones? The old units seems to work ok in my tests but could be great to have the new ones working. https://forums.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/gc-wall.gif

EDIT: It works I found the problem in the prod. files. It's very cool to see dead people on the battlefield https://forums.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/tongue.gif
