CA Patch Updates & Mod Application

[DaVinci]

I just added this to the Release thread under Important Notes

# Important2: If you play the mod online, also in singleplayer, Steam will check the files, and will consider the file in the battle_preferences (contained in the roaming S2 folder), which is not compatible with vanilla.
This can lead to the error-message "S2 doesn't work anymore".
It makes no real harm though, the mod still works normally, but maybe vanilla makes issues for a next start.
Solution: Prior to your next mod/game start offline, open the battle_preferences file and delete the contained file. This is no problem, it won't change anything, except that the error-message disappears.

As it might be relevant for many, mentioned here once more.

Example path: C:\Users\Xigma_MW\AppData\Roaming\The Creative Assembly\Shogun2
for the ones who don't know that location.

Info about the recent CA patch and DLC (unit pack) from 28th July 2011:

S2R+: Works without issues * (at least haven't encountered anything, except that these new DLC unit names aren't displayed in some instances).

S2R+ and this DLC: I intend to fully customise this DLC (Sengoku Jidai, unit pack) to S2R+ as well, but that needs first an update of the PFM tool.

Possible Add On mods: Alone the application of the Unit Variety mod (v3.05 by Hedge Knight aka Josst) seems to make compatibility issues (in my case at least, i got some crashes in the Custom Battle mode, if i apply the Unit Variety mod).

* you might need to remove the following file: battle_preferences (in the roaming path/ S2 folder), if you have used mods prior to the 28th July CA patch, to get the game running overall
