lol, maybe i dont know!
im not that fond of RTR, too realistic for me, i just want kick ass massive battles!
Are you sure you yourself didn't make any alterations perhaps to the descr_strat and continued playing with an "old" savegame? I've had the mercenaries get screwed all up by editing the descr_strat and replaying an old savegame. Somehow it corrupts the data and buggers up the mercenary spawning locations. At least I think it was the descr_strat that caused it, could have been another file aswell or several files that causes the mercenary corruptions in pre-modded savegames.
Either revert back to the old descr_strat or whichever file was modded or start a new campaign.
Anyways it could also be that you play a savegame of an older version and the newer version you have now causes the problem and you have altered nothing yourself.
Anyways try to start a new campaign and see if the problem is gone.
no it was a clean, RTR 5.4 started game, and it screwed but it wasn't the first time, it's everytime i play
Then I really kind think of anything else that could cause a problem, sorry.
I checked the descr_mercenaries file myself and everything seemed to be ok. Odd.
I don't have RTR5.4 installed, well I do, but not in a way that it can be played, it's just installed into an empty folder.
If you have a problem with RTR you may have more joy finding a solution at the RTR forums on TWC.
well that's my point, there's nothing wrong with the files. and when you start the game all's oke. but after a while it changes a few times, and i ended up with eles in gaulQuote:

I have never had that problem.
I'm roughly 99% sure that you somehow screwed up the installation. My guess is you installed it in a not-clean rtw, perhaps already with mod previously installed in it. When i play it, it seems to be fine.
nope, it was a clean RTW install, but i did mod it myself afterwards but that was only units
THIS IS GOING TO FAR, i can hire triremes and biremes as mercenaries on land. i have bastarnae in spain bedouins in gaul and barbarian cavalry in the ******* dessert
Just get someone to send you the correct merc file... I don't have it installed, but thats the way to do it :wink:
it isn't the merc file that's corrupted everything is oke there. but the merc pools seem to switch every 50 years.
I've received one other complaint of this. Send me a messed up save at Simetrical at gmail.com, and I'll see if it's still a problem loaded on clean RTR. Or, better yet, if you can pin down an exact method that will always cause the bug, I may be able to figure it out. The first thing is to send me a save, though.

oke i'll send one soon
