I am working on them, but due to RL issues, this has not made it into the release. I plan to release the 1.1 units on their own.Quote:

RE the programming question, I think that BASIC is a good place to start (any version, really).
Could the next version of RV include ship recruitment?
I'm playing Aedui, wanting to invade the Casse but can't seem to build ships anywhere I own other than Tolosa.
My reading of the Build Trees indicates I need provinces with the Small Fleet or Large Fleet hidden resource but there doesn't seem to be a map of where those are :no:
There is an old map for EB 0.72, actually. You can find it here.Quote:

Only new data files will be provided on as needed basis.
Cool, thanks for that.Quote:

I remember that thread but it didn't make much sense to me way back then, makes much more sense now :D
For an 1.1 version: here you are:

Hi, just come back for another EB campaign after months away, this RV looks great, I just have a couple of quick questions if I may..
I have selected a Faction - Casse
Selected an MIC - Native
Selected an MIC level - 1
and I have also checked "exact"
I have then selected the Casse starting province and opened the province data screen.
The only unit I expected to see was the levy spearmen, but I also have in the list;
Militia Skirmishers MIC 5
Militia Skirmishers
Britons Shortswordsmen MIC 5
Britons Shortswordsmen
I then selected MIC level 2 and expected to see Slingers, Southern Gallic Swordsmen and the spearmen which make up the bulk of my forces which I think are called Goaroas?
In the list on the RV I have;
Celtic Naked Spearmen MIC 5
Celtic Naked Spearmen
Iaosatae (slingers) MIC 5
Iaosatae (slingers)
Southern Gallic Swordsmen MIC 5
Southern Gallic Swordsmen
So my questions are;
Why can I see units in the list that in the game I don't seem to be able to recruit with those MIC levels?
Why are the Spearmen missing from the MIC level 2?
What does the "MIC 5" bit mean?
Many thanks in advance,
MIC 5 refers to unit you can get after second reform.
I dont know what unit you mean by spearmen. On level 1 you can get 2 units, on level 2 4. What is full name of unit you are missing?Quote:
Why are the Spearmen missing from the MIC level 2?
In this case I dont think you should be able to see units that you cant recruit in game.Quote:

RV manual: RV Limitations section explains why you sometimes see unit in RV that you cant recruit in game.
I've checked the game and the spearmen appear to be Gearoas (Celtic Spearmen).
I know I can build these in my starting region and the one above it as well but in the recruitment viewer it shows them as only being available in the cornish region for the british isles?
At the games start I can train these, levy spearmen, slingers and southern gallic swordsmen in camulosadae.
On the recruitment viewer, if I select Casse/Native/2/, select their home province and then "province data" it shows Celtic naked spearmen, levy spearmen, milita skirmishers, slingers, briton shortswordsmen and southern swordsmen
So I'm just confused why they don't seem to match? I can't work out what I'm doing wrong so any guidance is much appreciated!
By the way, is there an entry in the RV for Rhodian slingers? I looked for that entry the other day but was unable to find it (sorry for the question if this is because I didn't look well enough :shame: ).
The Rhodians are a 1.1 unit, so not in the RV yet.Quote:

Where is the 1.1 RV?Quote:

Apologies, for earlier questions,
After a good year away from EB at least, I loaded up a campaign, then I downloaded the RV, then I asked some questions, THEN I realised how may updates/changes I had missed and needed installing. I was playing EB 0.8 and referring to RV 1.0. I clearly need to spend more time on this forum, even when I'm not playing.
Thanks again for all the time and effort you guys put into this.
Sorry, relative newb.
What has happened to the Unit Cards? Also, what does Complex 26 mean? Is that the Regional Barracks?
The updated unit cards are in your EB documentation folder.
What, C:\Program Files\The Creative Assembly\Rome - Total War\EB\documentation? cos all that's in there is a spreadsheet and some pdf's in a folder marked JMRC Building Trees. Or am I looking in the wrong place?Quote:

:balloon2:- You wantses it...
Is the RV linked to in the first post the 1.1 version (ie. the same as the one bundled with the 1.1 installation?)
only for some reason I decided not to install it when I installed EB1.1 and now I wish I had, but I don't want to reinstall the whole thing from scratch....so was hoping I could just dl and install this one..
Check out Extras folder in your Rome Total War directory.
I'm sorry to bump this, but is the recruitment info in the viewer up to date (v.12)??
It seems that the roman possibilities in Gallia are not correct represented, so anyone knows if there is an update I missed?
Thanks in advance!

I believe the download in this thread is v1.0. The v1.1 installer will include the v1.1 Recruitment Viewer. There is no v1.2 version of the Recruitment Viewer...
hmmm....will there be an update in the future?

I personally admire the person who made the RV for even thinking about making one in the first place - such skill and work ethos... All done not for profit but for the community.
I for one even have trouble finding the time to keep up to date with this forum...
But maybe some day there might be an update.
Right now I believe most EB members are heavily burdened with balancing real life and EBII...
The recruitment viewer is the viewer component of a program used to generate the export_descr_building.txt file. You didn't think the EB team put in about 15Megs worth of code by hand, did you? :inquisitive: :grin:
Yikes - he has a point there... :sweatdrop:Quote:

[/drums and recruitee speech]
It uses SQL lite or similar as a database to query for info when you ask: "what units can I recruit in province xyz with building abc?" I don't know whether or not is has an operation to update its DB from the text files, it was by all means written to do the exact opposite. So updating it yourself is likely going to be more difficult than writing something from scratch (wich is actually not terribly difficult).Quote:
