triarii- Phalanx

[Mr Frost]

I am having a problem with changing triarii over to a phalanx formation as well. Everything starts up great but I get a CTD when a unit starts up melee with the triarii in phalanx formation. Any ideas what could be causing this? I wasted the whole evening trying to get it to work.

If you added a sword stat for a secondary weapon {I did} , then you might have forgotten to give the unit a Swordsman Skeleton {in the descr_model_battle.txt file} .

Here is the data from the files I altered making the Triarii a Phalanx unit :

The FS_Swordsman skeleton tripped up a few people doing this {me , some bloke wanting to do it from my description where I forgot to mention it and I'm sure a horde of others} , so I mention it .
Perhaps it was simply a syntax spelling error or ; instead of a , or suchlike ?
