Has anyone made a 1.5 patch file list?
Here is what I see so far just perusing through changes I can easily see:
RomeTW.exe (obviously)
DATA Folder
export_descr_buildings.txt
export_descr_unit.txt
descr_items.db
export_descr_character_traits.txt
export_descr_ancillaries.txt
Sounds Folder
events.dat
events.idx
Pack Folder
patch_1.pak (new file)
Animations Folder
pack.dat
skeletons.dat
skeletons.idx
Are you sure about the descr_strat? After installing the 1.6/1.5 patch my descr_strat seems to be no different from my modded 1.3 descr_strat...
I think you are right. I must have misread that one. With the way the patches install, and sometimes cannot be uninstalled and reinstalled, I end up putting them on top of the original folder, then looking for parts that have changed among my own edits...not the best way to do it. I much prefer patches that unzip somewhere first...so I can see exactly what is happening.
Did a binary diff of the 1.3 and 1.5 DATA folders - this is exactly what I see.Quote:

Rename that folder, copy the old files back in a new data folder and then copy/paste the new patched files back.
I still don't understand why a company, that advertises the moddability of its games, has to have an installer that doesn't simply let you select the folder in which the patch is installed.
