EB 1.2 MINI MOD PACK!

[||Lz3||]

Has anyone else run into the problem of their faction screen becoming a jumbled mess? I did a search of the thread and haven't seen anything on it so I was assuming it was just my game. Not really too important I guess, but still nice to see battle stats and the like.

Yep... its caused by the victory conditions mini mod, you can restore the faction window with the procedure I explained in the Known limitations section

The new fixes for 1.2 patch are included?

Not exactly... you need to download them from the main post, note section... Do not use the official fixes

I have this error when loading the game with Eb Single Player (I have Alexander expansion installed also).

Script Error in eb/data/export_descr_unit.txt, at line 10091, column 34.

EDIT: SOLVED

[Shadowwalker]

@Dan Grr:

May I ask you how you did solve this problem?
I encountered exactly the same error today...

[Ferromancer]

In the EDU:

Replace:
roman_infantry_cohorsevocata_cohorspraetoriana
with:
roman_infantry_cohorsimperatoria_evocata

replace:
roman_infantry_cohorsimperatoria
with:
roman_infantry_cohorsimperatoria_evocata

delete line:
officer roman_eagle

That's a temporary solution to get you playing again. The real problem lies with something screwed up in the unit models.

[Shadowwalker]

Thanks a lot, Ferromancer!
I'd already given up hope to solve this problem without reinstallation (which would be terrible cause I'm just 2 provinces away from the win conditions with the Qart'hadastim and also have a Getai campaign in the 220s thats giong pretty smooth).

I'll try this immediately.

EDIT:

Tried to change the entries just to find out they already contain the changes you recommended.
What the hell have I done to my installation?
I remember nothing big, I only changed the number of arrows for the nuraghi from 15 to 20 and other rather 'cosmetical' changes.
And I definitly didn't change anything concerning soldier models or officers.

So ... sorry to be pesky again:
Is there something else I can do?

To give you a bit more information - I don't have vanilla EB 1.2, I installed some of the minimods too as I mentioned here.
Note: I didn't install the sweboz fix cause I didn't notice it before installation.
And afterwards I was not sure if it would not mess up my installation.

[Ferromancer]

make sure those fixes are applied to the EDU in your data folder as well as the one in the sp game backup folder.

[Shadowwalker]

Hmmm...
followed your advice and checked the EDU in the sp backup too.
In that EDU I was able to replace the 2 mentioned lines (roman_infantry...) but didn't find any entry "officer roman_eagle".
Strange.

I still get the CTD during game start. No CTD would have surprised me cause I had to edit the EDU in the EB/data folder to get the changes to the unit stats. Seems as if your (to mention it again: fantastic) "EB for BI"-mod relies on that EDU rather than the one in the sp backup folder. So it's unlikely that the game crashes because a wrong entry in an unused EDU...
But after all I'm still somewhat noobish in editing the game.

I seriously think about uninstalling Eb und do a reinstall with less minimods.
Maybe it helps since I always had a rather stable game before I installed all these tiny enhancements. And except for your BI mod, the city mod and the RS textures I don't need any further improvements.

But of course thanks again for your time and helping hand.


Oh, didn't mention it for a long time - please excuse any misspelling or grammar mistakes. I'm not as good at speaking/writing english as I should be.

[||Lz3||]

what if you reinstall the mod pack?

[Shadowwalker]

Hi Lz3,

don't take it personally, I really like the modpack (I mentioned this iirc) but I'm a little bit frustrated to lose 2 good campaigns (in the Qart'hadastim one the Casse even invaded the mainland...) to an persisting CTD. And since I never had these problems when I had only EB vanilla, citymod and EB for BI installed I have come to a decision.

But I will not touch the installation yet, no uninstalling, no reinstalling. I just play Reconquista (that german mod for M2TW... a really fantastic one btw) and calm down a bit.
Maybe when I think about it in one or two weeks again I have changed my mind and make a complete installation again (your modpack included).

[||Lz3||]

Don't worry...

This pack is par from perfect... however I'm extremely busy again <.<

If anyone can help with the to do list things would be more than great.

To do list:
-Correct the triarii recruitment for the allied legions mod
-take out the aquilifer from the main edu in the data folder, since I Thought everyone used the trivial script.
-Compatibility with the new official Karthadastim fix...

hi i am having trouble with the below error every time i go into the loading screen.

Script Error in eb/data/export_descr_unit.txt, at line 10091, column 34.

Could not find soldier battle model for unit type 'roman infantry evocatae'.

i downloaded the mini mod pack and then instated the eb for bi installer.
then i fixed a previous eror using these instructions.

Replace:
roman_infantry_cohorsevocata_cohorspraetoriana
with:
roman_infantry_cohorsimperatoria_evocata

replace:
roman_infantry_cohorsimperatoria
with:
roman_infantry_cohorsimperatoria_evocata

delete line:
officer roman_eagle

but now i am having problems agen.
and here is code.

I have no idea on why several people out of 200+ have problems with that... have you ever installed any other mod prior to this one?

Are you making the changes in both Data folder EDU and SP EDU backup folder?

[CyberPhalanx]

no

and

yes.

[ezekiel2517]

I have a question:

The city mod version in this pack, is it the one that limits the "barbarian" factions to large sized cities?

[||Lz3||]

It's not by default... you need to download the CityMod add-on

[ezekiel2517]

It's not by default... you need to download the CityMod add-on

oh

[Woest]

In the EDU:

Replace:
roman_infantry_cohorsevocata_cohorspraetoriana
with:
roman_infantry_cohorsimperatoria_evocata

replace:
roman_infantry_cohorsimperatoria
with:
roman_infantry_cohorsimperatoria_evocata

delete line:
officer roman_eagle

That's a temporary solution to get you playing again. The real problem lies with something screwed up in the unit models.

Perhaps i have the solution, in the descr_battle_model some files are not correctly named.
Search for:
Roman infantry - Cohors Evocata / Cohors Praetoriana
and
Roman infantry - Cohors Imperatoria

Then look at the names for 'texture' and 'model_flexi_m' they should be the same as the file names in the following folders:
eb/data/models_unit/textures/
and
eb/data/models_unit/

So for example the following line in the descr_battle_model is linked to the following file:
model_flexi_m eb/data/models_unit/EBUNIT_PROME_NEW_UNIT_ROMAN_LegioneAugustea_high.cas

But in the eb/data/models_unit/ folder the file name is as followed:
EBUNIT_PROME_NEW_UNIT_ROMAN_LEGIONEAUGUSTEA_HIGH.CAS

So if both names are the same, no changes has to be made in the export_descr_unit file

The only line that has to be deleted in that file is:
officer roman_eagle

I hope this works.

[Sarkiss]

hey, guys, how do you get rid of formation mini-mod? i dont like all the units being on guard mode by default. i have also noticed that AI doesnt cope very well and always leaves some units behind which leaves the rest of the army isolated and cut to pieces. not sure though whether that caused by formations... but these "reserves" seem to very rarely engage...

Go to the original Lysander13 thread... there's a link in my main post. =)

[Mithick666]

New things to notice
City mod (both version a and b)
Phalanx mod
Fixed Polybian recruitment for Allied recruitment mod (I had forgoten to disable the allies and to restrict the extraordinarii)
Fixed FD
Fixed Victory conditions
Fixed Alexander splash loading screen in RTW version
Fixed Bruttian voices
Improved UI (that means I finally made intallers )

Fixed Bruttian voices
what is it? the bruttian unit does not have voice or it is missig did you put them voices or something?

[Olimpian]

So my EB install got f**ked up... and now I want to reinstall this great compilation but I have a little problem I can't download anything. I tried dissabeling firewall, antivirus, etc ... but everytime I download something (the pack, city mod, phalanx ...) it's named "X6" and is in an unknown format. Have no idea what this means

EDIT: Nevermind, I cracked it ( stupid DAP ). But now I found that the City mod 5.1b with allied recruitment enabled has a small bug: roman allied units are just labeled "Legio" instead of "Legio I Kalabria"-for example. I know it's because of City mod 5.1b with allied recruitment because if I don't install it the labeling is good.

I would be very greatful Lz3 if you could spear the time to fix this.

[CyberPhalanx]

Hi lz3 ime having a small problem.
i downloaded Spoils of Victory, Some trait changes (command stars & cursus honorum), Win Conditions, Force Diplomacy, and city mod and now the the computer ceepes giving me 100000 mani per turn when i should be in the negatives and the game starts to get alital boring when i can just bribe my way to victory.

so do eny of those mods mess with the eb script in a way that can account for this.

edit: i just got this error message after exiting my game.
https://img10.imageshack.us/my.php?image=85558098.png

so if you need eny more info tell me.

[Lovejoy]

I am so confused.

In the main post, I first read this:
"You dont need to do anything but download the pack Now I didn't took a chance , I also included EVERY official fix, so... you DON'T need to apply ANY official fix after using this."


But then, futher down the post, I read:
"Official EB fix adaptation. Download. Instruction: Unpack into <RTW directory>/EB/data."

...and:
"Instructions (for all packs)
1-Make sure you have the sprites fix applied
2-Download it."

Should I download this?

More:

I want to play with citymod. But I don't know if I should choose
"* City mod 5.1a for mod pack with allied recruitment mod enabled Here"

Or...
"* City mod 5.1a for mod pack with allied recruitment mod disabled Here

What is allied recruitment mod? Is it the "Roman Allied Legions-mod; by konny"?

[Decimus]

City mod 5.1b appears to be missing some resources. Arretium cannot be upgraded to a City.

[Gask]

Could someone please post a link to just this Spoils of Victory mod? Unless it's the same as the version from the original thread as that one makes my game crash for some reason.

[desert]

Two questions Lz3:

1. There's no differentiation between the Alex version of City Mod and the RTW version. Does this mean it will work regardless of .exe?

2. You wouldn't happen to have the old "revert back to 1.1" files, would you?

It's the same

[Holysahib]

Hi,

I'm a real noob on all this modding stuff, but this pack really looks nice!
I play EB.exe version 1.2, and I allready have Force Diplomacy installed.
Can I install the pack without screwing my save games? (I allready restarted my Romani campaign three times!) or should I remove the previous mods first?
Also, Spoils of Victory says that they're not save compatible, is this fixed in this pack?
Anyway, great work on the modding, this really brings games to another level, way more creative than any company would ever dare or think of.

[Maksimus]

oki i make a short fast info to confirm that Eaem has all of Lz's mod features exept

Win Conditions (since they dont represent 'new reality' in Eaem start map etc) Roman Allied Legions (since we use regions for naming First cohorts instead of Allied units that are mercenary ones)

[lonmzjia]

Question: does this mod (or rather, any of the mods in this mod) change the edu backup files?
