    I have it on my games. But a pal wants it and I can't find it anywhere.

    Perhaps some one could point me to it.

    The no time limit patch.

    Thanks in advance

    Are you referring to time limits in battles, or to being able to play the game past the normal 1453 end date?

    Being able to the change the "end date" of the game.

    So if I wanted to I could play till 2345.

    I already have it set up in my games, but I can't seem to find the orginal files so I can pass it on to my pal

    Well you can just locate the file in the folder Campmap/startpos folder. The EARLY, HIGH and LATE txt files are the ones that has been changed (if you have not renamed them to keep the original files)

    Send them to your friend and he puts them into the folder and voila.

    I'll do that.

    He can't just change those files on his machine, right?

    My files had to be patched by the exe before those dates were changed?

    It can easily be changed.
    Read the following to see how it can be done:

    - Go to your "Medieval - Total War\campmap\startpos\".
    - Then open up either one of the following txt files: EARLY, HIGH or LATE (or VIKING if you have VI and want to change the enddate for the Viking campaign).
    - You can then place the following codeline for example on a clean enter/line:
    Code Voorbeeld SetGameEndDate:: 2345[/QUOTE]

    Just so you can easily find it again, put it inbetween the following codelines (unless you want to place it somewhere else, you can ofcourse also do that):
    Code Voorbeeld SetStartDate:: 1321
    SetPeriod:: LATE
    SetEarlyPeriodStartDate:: 1087
    SetHighPeriodStartDate:: 1205
    SetLatePeriodStartDate:: 1321[/QUOTE]

    Place it for example inbetween like the following:
    Code Voorbeeld SetStartDate:: 1321
    SetGameEndDate:: 2345
    SetPeriod:: LATE
    SetEarlyPeriodStartDate:: 1087
    SetHighPeriodStartDate:: 1205
    SetLatePeriodStartDate:: 1321[/QUOTE]

    If you'd like another date just change the "2345" to something else.

    it's called the Julian Date Change or something or other...hmmmm...ask for it in the Dungeon, those tech guys might still have it. I don't currently have it, but I know it's on a backup CD somewhere, so maybe it will appear back in the download section in a few days.
    I'm not sure if it works with the viking expansion.
