KOTF mod

[_Tristan_]

I had almost everything working fine and now when I launch the campaign, I'm taken back to the Campaign Selection screen.

Seems there is a conflict caused by descr_strat. So I'm now doing a bit of retro-engineering to find the cause of the problem...

It's not the coding, it's the QA that's the hard bit... hopefully you'll the bugs.

Still working on it but it doesn't look good... Even when following the step by step guide...

Any people with modding experience are welcome to lend me a hand...

You could try asking Factionheir for a hand - he was very able and helpful with kotrfix. You could also try to entice him to join us while you are at it...

I can look at it if you can't find a real modder, but I can only offer enthusiasm as opposed to experience.

FH is philosophically opposed to Securom last I heard (too bad, I'd love to have him...) but he could certainly help with the mod if so inclined. I can take a look at it, although I'm not a great modder. I do have some programming experience, I'm guessing some really tiny problem is causing your crash, it always seemed to be a single line or punctuation that crashed our programs in school.

What error message do you get?

[_Tristan_]

No error per se, the game just won't launch even though using the utility tool listed in the guide I managed to get 0 errors...

If someone is able to mod the name files, I can send them the list of French names I have compiled...

The main problem as I see it is not having access to the Vanilla names.txt file (used by LTC) and not wanting to unpack the files.

Whenever I try to create a names.txt files from scratch, it just won't be recognised but updating a pre-existing one works.

So if anyone would care to upload a version of the Vanilla names.text file I might be able sto solve all the problems affecting my modding...

It just seemed so simple to start with...
