Sucks doesnt it?

In 1.2 I solved the problem with custom battles, by making sure that the new mod folder has descr_start.txt file (in campaign folder).

Custom battles problem SOLVED!

In order to work you need to have copy of data\world\maps\campaign\imperial_campaign\descr_strat.txt file in your mod folder.

Also you need to have copy of whole data\world\maps\base folder in you mod folder.

well that didn't do it for me. Can you tell me the exact content of your mod folder ? And are you running RTW or BI exe ?

All in v1.3

First test: Empty mod folder
Custom battles don't work (they just don't start)

Second test: added descr_strat.txt file from imperial_campaign folder (to apropriate subfolder in mod folder)
Game crasher after it tries to start.

Third test: added whole content of world\maps\base folder
Custom battles worked

Note that these test had no single moded file in mod folder yet.

oh right, rtw 1.3. That works indeed, but still doesn't help me converting my mod to BI

Well, I guess you should hunt for something similar in 1.4 too.

There must be some files that need to be present in mod folder for things to work properly I guess.
