Battle Crash

[SirTorgrad]

Hi guys,

I have the following problem; everytime my Hastati Principes or other Javelin units throw their pila/Javelins the game crashes, similar to the (Now fixed) Axe throwing bug in The third Age: Total War. I have the Steamversion of MTW2 as well as the graphic enhancement mini mod. Asides from that the game works fine and looks great.

Some possible fixes:
1. Go to: M2TW\mods\EBII\data\animations and delete the .idx and .dat files, check if fixed(afterwards check that those files were generated).
2. Do suggestion 1 again, then open M2TW\mods\EBII\data\descr_skeleton.txt, search for EB_Pilum and change the entries to:

;Sub-family used for units using prec attribute
;they throw their javelins doing a run
;alin
type		EB_Pilum
reference_points		siege_engines/UnitModelsRefPoints/Javelin_Ref_Point.modelReferencePoints
parent		MTW2_Javelin
locomotion_table soldier

anim		default							data/animations/MTW2_Spear/MTW2_Spear_basepose.cas

Make sure you also use the steam shortcut, not the cd shortcut.
