Due to a corrupt set of saved games (2 days effort wasted) I've had to reinstall everything MTW.
I had the command-line modifier to prevent the startup movie running when you load the game, and also the text file changes to correct the "disappearing corpses" bug.
I've searched but cannot find the instructions on how to reinstate these Can any one help??
well, for the start movie, just create a blank text file called skipcredits.txt in the directory root.
dunno about other one.
Hope this works - surprised no-one remembered it From DnC? "There isn't a patch for it as far as I know, but I can help you.
This takes about two/five minutes to do.
Do the following:
- Go to Medieval - Total War > Textures > Men.
- Scroll down towards the bottom untill you find DEADPAGE COORDS (the .txt file) and open it.
- Scroll down (quite a bit down [;)] untill you see this:
(Other units above - as you can see when looking at the "DEADPAGE COORDS.txt")

This way I know for sure it will work, if there are any enters between the deadpage coordinate entries it might cause problems, but I don't know this for sure, because I have never tested it.
