Disabling Quick Battles

[Lusted]

Is there any way to disable quick battles? Because in my mod there is a new campaign map and all the unit names have changed so trying to play one will result in a CTD, and there doesn't appear to be anyway to create new ones. So how can i disable them?

edit the data\menu\rome.lnt file and remove the "new_game_quick_battle" UI piece

Adherbal is correct about the LNT file but try emptying your quick folder first and attempting a Quick Battle. It should base the quick battle off your mod though I am not fully clued up on how they generate - but they work for me in the fa:tw mod.

Excellent! I've been trying to this in the "menu_english" file, but CA seem to have changed the "disable option" that you can use in RTW 1.2.

So all i do in the "menu_english" file is change quick battle to a full stop..which is not desirable...

No you remove the whole section from the Rome.LNT file - do not comment it out as this will not work. It must be removed. So keep a backup. The LNT code is *sort* of like html.

I know that quick battles have the same extension as saved custom battle setups. How this works in combination with the random generation of battles I do not know.

Well, at least it (deleting the quick folder's files) stopped automatic CTD's in EB's quick battles. Still puts you in water often though. But sometimes it works well now.
