First, I love this mod :) Thanks, guys, great work :)
On a different note, I've played v 2.01 a few times: it seems, that the valor upgrade from gymnasiums and similar building does not get applied to any unit types (It's not clear to which unit types it should apply either). Is something broken there?
The master armorer description promises +4 armor. Nevertheless, it seems, only +3 armor is applied in the game.
Cheers
whoa i can post , this is so cool,
hey htw devs im looking forward to ur mods, but i have a huge prob. my original mtw disk if gone(not vi, i still have vi), So now i cant make a new fresh instalation to dl this mod , and tht sucks, so is there anyway to delete my old ntw or htw v2.1 mods from my 2 viking invasion instaltions tht contain them? this way if i manage to delete atleast 1 mod from my viking invasion instalations, i can dl the new htw version when it comes out, and tht will rock. ty in advance, and i hope there is a way.
i posted this in the gen discusiion too
Only if you have a copy of MTW:VI v2.1 and without previous mod's installed in it(even not HTW v2.1) it is possible to copy/paste it and use it for HTW v3.1 Beta.Otherwise sorry no go...

hello CZOF, where is the map put?
Sorry M8 what map are you talking about the latest version of HTW v2.1 is a self-installer.Check the website in the download section,but if you can wait for a couple of days HTW v3.1 Beta will be out also as a self-installer.
CZoF http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...evalcheers.gif
thanks, will wait for 3.1, i got a non self installing version and mucked up.
I have MTW and the VI expansion but the only upgrade I see for that is version 2.01. I see that HTW requires an upgrade to 2.1 ?? Where is that upgrade so I can install this mod. I'm really looking forward to that
Problem already, CTD when i try a custom battle on classical period. Everything works fine. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...ns/gc-help.gif
Here's a small fix for some missing deadbodys
And army select icons
install over the Medieval - Total War folder
deadbodys
From this evening on (21.00 H CET) this fix will be implemented in the full version so if you have downloaded HTW v3.1 Beta this night use it.From tomorrow on this fix is not needed anymore.

Q : Light Toxotes takes 2 year to built = Toxtes takes 1 year to built ?
I have build and uploaded a new updated version i advise to download HTW v3.1 Beta from the HTW site again.
If you have already installed HTW v3.1 Beta use the uninstall option in your start menu and install the new updated version.

I have a problemn with the battle screen freezing and jerking. i have a athlon 2100 processor, 80 gigs memory, 512 ddr ram, win 98, tnt 2 34 meg video card. game worked great before i put the athlon processor in the computer. what can i do i followed install instructions. thanks
Hi myces, try some things.
Tnt is not a very powerfull GCard for MTW gaming.
- Try diferent settings in AGP aperture value in MTW options.
- DirectX: turn off hardware acceleration.
- in graphics options put 16Mb in PCI memory.
- use lower resolution screen in MTW options
Yes buy a new graphic card.
TNT2 is an old and not very fast graphic card.
Just so people know, if you uninstall old 3.1 and install new one, saved games won't work, just found out...heh, went back to old one till I finish campaign
Thankyou flip, i really love HTW period of warfare. when i could not play the battles it was a disapointment. i just can not think why my computer would play it once and after upgrading the cpu it would not. but anyway HTW is great
Damn, i still get a CTD when i try to play a custom battle in classical period. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...ns/gc-wall.gif
Julius, thats strange, do you use random units or choose by hand, also aren't you using huge size army instead of default?
What's in the New Updated Version?
Correction of deadpage coords,missing Textures Items(weapons),new unit prod file,there was a problem with the frontend_files.
CZoF http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...icons/idea.gif
Now i got it fixed The one that i installed the 3.1 was on a folder that i copied and pasted. So its fixed. Time to play now. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...c-computer.gif
a couple questions about this great mod:
1. descriptions of gymnasiums and the like say that these buildings provide + valor. + valor to what units? i haven't seen any that would have this valor bonus applied to.
2. battering rams: hmm, they go down easily even near fort walls... maybe they should have size higher than one unit? i.e, something similar to catapults in MTW. just pondering :)
3. charriots: it appears, they have been designed to align in very close formation. i suspect, that if charriots rode into the battle so closely, they'd soon be a pile of rubble: just crashing into each other. isn't loose formation more appropriate for these guys?
4. the master armorer: it still gives only +3 armor - the same as armorer's guild.
5. i love the graphics of the units :)
Sorry Zimoa,
but I ask the question about the new release, because the file is named in the same way, and in the properties of the file I haven't seen a difference between the versions (both 2.0.0.21), so I've had some doubts.... http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...icons/wink.gif
Anyway, I will be glad to give a hand for testing the game....
thank you very much for all, this evening I will upgrade my HTW http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...s/bigthumb.gif
Hello to all
Bye Bye http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...icons/wave.gif
First off I might have gotten the wrong topic to post on in witch case I apologize but there’s quiet a few to choose from : )
What I’m in desperate need of is a little assistance downloading your 3.1 beta
You have to realize I live in rural Scotland where any form of broadband simply doesn’t exist and even the regular phone lines are pretty poor quality
So it takes me about 8 to 10 hours to download around 100megs including being disconnected every 2 hours
This should be simply an act of patience but with HTW it’s so far been an act of futility because I can’t send it to a download tool I have to use the windows downloader and it seems to randomly reset it’s self when I drop con. Some times it will save its progress some times it wont and I can’t see any rhyme or reason to it
I don’t fully understand why I can’t send it to a download tool but I have very little understanding of web design. It seems to me the HTW site is done some sort of different style or format from most web pages something I occasionally see but usually avoid because its much slower (takes me a good 40mins to load the first page) the main problem with it being that I cant drag and drop links
So is there another place to download it from? Does anyone know of a download tool that will work on that link? Is there a chance of changing the link on the page in the future? Or is this whole thing the side effect of a security issue?
I hope that there’s something that can be done because I very much want to play this game I downloaded the 2.1 about a week and a half ago and it took my breath away. As a game it’s far better than the original medieval and dare I say it better balanced. And as for historical accuracy I can’t see how any game could come closer to that aim without losing the gameplay. I have no criticisms for it at all and huge respect and gratitude to you people making it
Hmm, I can not seem to download the new version either (for a different reason though), I keep getting a This page can not be displayed message when click on the download link.
Any suggestions?
same here.. page not found. i'm just assuming that your bandwidth is bunked since the update was just released.. i'll try again later.
http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg.../gc-juggle.gif
edit: sorry if this was posted in the wrong thread http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...c-confused.gif
All fine now, the link is working again http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...s/bigthumb.gif
How come the link for music doesn't work?
Hi. I just loaded up my classical campaign as the Macedonians, and I see Crusades scattered over the map http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg.../gc-dizzy2.gif . Has anyone else seen this bug and are there any fixes, b/c all the saves until that point had been fine.
Links are fine now,sometimes it can be the server that is temporarily out,when this happens just try again later.
CZoF http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...s/gc-clown.gif
I got the same problem with the game lagging and so on.
2,6 ghz processor
GeForce 4 MX GFX card,64 mb
20 GB diskspace(I know its not much,but i got like 13 gb free)
Windows ME
I don't know why it lags like this,anyone?
Yepp, there's something fishy with this mod version...
i've had like 10 CTDs within the first 20 years....
dont get it....
If you have so many CTD's there must be something wrong with the install,try a new one first and follow the instructions carefully...
CZoF
GREAT, GREAT, GREAT WORK GUYS http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...ns/biggrin.gif http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...ns/biggrin.gif http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...ns/biggrin.gif
I'm happy to congratulate to all you
The balance of costs-power-times of stocks of the ships it's very fine
The landings of troops are now more easy
The castle assaults are not impossible anymore
The types of the buildings are more appropriate then before
The characteristics of the units are well tuned
I surely say that the work actually all ok
These are my impressions that i had, playing a campaign with Lacedemonis (the Spartans)....of course i need to more time to test the game, but, at the first impact, i think it ok
Only the tech tree : the second degree of the castles (the keep) depend on the development of the provincial estate, while the other degrees castles follow an own way : I think, like in the original game, there should be an own tree for the castles
Ok guys, give me the best wishes for my campaign because the Persians are been able to create a huge army (like in the past) and hope to beat them soon http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...s/bigthumb.gif
Congratulation again boys, wonderful work
See you soon http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...icons/wave.gif http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...icons/wave.gif http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...icons/wave.gif
Ah I love it The 6 hour dl was efinately worth it I suck at it so far though.. only beat Spechitfre. Anyways, on the faction desciption for the Peoneans, you have the faction descrition for the Aragonese put there. Kinda funky lookin.
Great job
ok i have a few questions, firstly i have a 56 k dial up modem, how long do you think it will take to download.
So i uninstall, then rienstall the game right?along with all my saved games uninstallt them too?
After i have a fresh, brand new installed version of MTW on my comp i download patch, and then what from there?
Does it automatically install the patch for me or do i have to do all of it manually?
While i have the patch can i still play the normal campaighs, with the normal units?
If not could i uninstall MTW and the mod would be gone?But lets say i wanto play it later some time down the road, could i simply reinstall the mod?
sorry one more question i forgot about, on your site it says you need VI v2.1 when i start VI on the menu screen in the upper right corner it says i have v2.01 is ths the same version, or do i need to install a patch, if so where?
I dl'ed this last night when I still had Dial-Up,and it took me a little over 6 hours. I dont think you can expect much better buddy..
But I just ot DSL installed a few minutes ago, so I'm off to download the musicpack
*laughs at all the 56k'ers*
With HTW 3.1, every time I start a battle, all my troops are bunched together in one long column. It takes about 5-10 minutes to select each unit, spread it out so that the ranks are correct and place it on the map. Is there a fix for this.
Peloneus hi,
formations are still in tests till final version.
While in battle when a pop up window ask you to deploy army, chose different formations ( label shield at bottom left ) till the formation get lined up.
Ok so when I install this I can't play M:TW anymore? Is there a way to have the two games both work? Or do I have to always have 1 of them uninstalled?
I'm linking to the TW.com forum, there's a good explanation about install:
Install procedure
Hi to all,
With HTW 3.1, every time I start a battle, all my troops are bunched together in one long column
for this problem underlined by Peloneus, even me I have got it, but during the deployment, this is not a big problem, but during the attacks, where i cannot deploy my troops, this penalize my offensive, because my enemy can reach me and my troops are not ready to receive it http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg.../gc-dizzy2.gif
As concerning the historical battles : some icons of the troops that the game show before the battle start, are wrong : How can I make to restore the rights ?
Many thanks guys, see you.... http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...icons/wave.gif
(great, great, great work http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...s/bigthumb.gif)
El Cid.
The deployment problem is a known bug that I am sure is beeing worked on.
As a player (even on attack) you can easily work arround it by clicking on the Icon with the shield and the two spears behind it in the lower left corner during deployment.
Just choose one of the available formations (I find the Sparaba most usefull)
You troops will then be disentangled.
Sadly the AI cant do this and has quite some problems to get a decent setup when it encounters this problem.
Thanks flip and omegaman,
Right clicking on the army shield allows you to choose several different formations that corrects the single column problem prior to beginning a battle. I didn't know you could do this in MTW.
Great mod by the way, I play it every night.
http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...ns/biggrin.gif Finally got my new copys of MTW and Viking just for this baby. No problems to report other than the usual that others have reported about troop movements. Also once i begin a battle All the discription and picture of the troops go away. Hmm. Other that that its simply awsome. All the great greek battles in one spot. Alexander himself would have been proud of this one. If you could give us a list of known issues it would help so I don't report on something that is already known. Fantastic and there is another project in the works? http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...ons/smokin.gif
Do you mean the uniticons on the bottom part of the map going just white, losing the unitpicture?
I have this effect when I ALT TAB out of the game (or accidentaly hit the windows key) and then return to the battle from desktop.
Every thing appears again when I then group or ungroup some units
This is a known MTW problem nothing to do with HTW.
CZoF http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...gc-curtain.gif
Yep,
it also happens in vanilla MTW.
Sorry forgot to mention that, but as I said just pause and then group or ungroup some units and all should be well again.
I have noticed that early on in a campaign, I get no CTD. However, the longer the campaign gets and the more units that are on the map, the more CTD I get. Last night I had two CTD after only 2-3 moves. These seem to happen just after a battle has finished or while the computer is moving the units on the map. And yes, I have unit size set on default.
I am at the point that after I finish each move, I exit the game and save it since the autosave does not seem to save the game prior to the AI taking over. This is getting more than a little frustrating.
Hi Peloneus,
this must be a install problem, I had no CTD of any type, and people with problems that try a new fresh install become happy.
so, are you following the install procedures for HTW?
Yes, I did a complete new install of MTW, then VI, and then the VI patch. Then I do the HTW 3.1 install. I believe this is the correct procedure.Quote:

We know from the past that sometimes it is the MTW:VI install that causes a CTD problem(known bug),so i would even go further and do a complete new install of everything...
CZoF http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...icons/wave.gif
Ok, do a thing
Post here the campaign date:
- Faction
- Era
- how many turns/yers you played till now/ if possible
at what turn you had the CTD
- error messages
flip,
I am playing the Lakedemonians in the Proclassical Era. I am currently on year 304, and have had CTDs every couple of turns for about the last 5-10 years. There are no error messages.
I tried some quick turns in Hard dificulty campaign.
No CTD. What are your dificulty settings?
I am also playing on the Hard setting. Have you played up to year 304?
I decided to try a mod and this one looked really good.
Anyway, I dowloaded 3.1 beta from the website and when I went to install it stops at about 30% with an error.
It says something like hillycoastalriver01.jjm contains invalid data (error 21FC)
What's the problem?
A very cool mod with a lot of work in it...what can i say..thank u all for it
I dont have any serious problem with 3.1, I just wonder why the money levels are so high that i have 3x more income then i ever need.
e.g. Gordion (sp?) had 8700 income with a Acu 6 govenor after i conquered it as Lyd. looked to me a bit high and it explains why I need to defend against 22000 troops in 1 battle with 2200 defending (I still won:P) Reminded me of the Termophyls (sp?) when a couple spartan troops defended a mountainpass against the persian army for some days.
not many of my troops survived but the ratio was like 5:1 in kills (incl. prisoners) befor the last troops routed.
General died early
http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...s/bigthumb.gif
The high money levels make the AI build troops after troops wich is kinda sensless since the battles are limited to 16 units.
I noticed in build prod files that the agri upgrades 20% etc are set to 100%/200%/300%/400%..intended?
just my 2cent
I've had about 3 or 4 CTD's in about a game and 1/2 of play. That's really not too bad.

From where did you download:the HTW site or 3D Downloads?
And if it was from the site what link,the primary or secondary download link?

Hello all. Problem
I just installed HTW version 3.1
I can't get to the game
I installed clean MTW VI, then the patch.
The installed 3.1
The problem is that the game notices the original factions and has a problem with it. I delete. Then it says to many columns in parsfile.
HELP.
What do I do, or how do I fix? http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...ns/gc-help.gif http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...ns/gc-help.gif http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...ns/gc-help.gif
After installation did you get the HTW background?
If this was the case i think you forgot to scroll down the campaign maps,there you would have found the HTW campaigns.
Install everything again if this was the problem.
There are also some instructions in the readme or on the site how you can delete the old MTW campaigns because they will not work anymore as you noticed.

I checked all the files from the primary link and they look fine,to be sure i downloaded and made a install all works fine so i guess some of you had corrupt downloads.The files work fine from the site,i cannot check the files uploaded to 3D downloads but these are only as a back-up in case the site is down(not so often) so i would always recommend the primary or secondary link on the site.

We have already a fix for this. Download the Projectile update file and install it at the root folder of MTW.
HTW link
It seems like a line of my guys dissapear when they walk by trees or something it appears the line of invisible units stay in line with the trees or something...confusing...I know I saw something about this on other mods, but for some reason I can't use the search...anyone know how to fix...also I seem to had a CTD when I try to start certain battles..now is this because some units are incomplete or do I need to change settings for units size..if so, to what?
Normanpain,
Use allways default size for armys
Hey,i'm a new member :) I've been playing HTW and it's fantastic, and I've had no problems until I tried to do a custom battle, upon which I experience a CTD at about 25%. I was wondering if Custom battle was possible with the mod, and if it is then how do I fix it? (unit size is default, lol) https://forums.totalwar.org/forum/no...nquisitive.gif
We need to know the two factions involved,the composition of the two armies(what units) and the map you have chosen to find the bug.
And yes,normally Custom battles are working fine.
