Night Battles and Imperial Campaign.

**Rilder** · 12-15-2005, 09:32

Ok, i have BI, 1.5-1.6 and since i love night battles in BI i was wondering if there could be a mod that could add night battles to the Imperial Campaign, at least let me know if its possible

if this is mentioned in another topic, please let me know

I had night battles enabled in XGM, but I think they were killed by the 1.5/1.6 patch (i.e. you can't enable them for the Imperial Campaign now).

I managed to get night battles working again, so you could try the latest version of XGM.

Any easy way of explaining how to enable Night Battles in the Imperial Campaign. Is it a simple enough job?

its a trait called diet_of_carrots (not kiddin!!!!! no seriously!) or something similar in the BI traits but there has to be something other than that....

So does anyone except DimeBagHo knows how to mod in night battles in the imperial campaign, both for V1.3 and V1.5 of RTW.

I have looked at XGM descr_strat.txt files and they have the night_battles_enabled line in it, but i believe that in V1.5 you need an additional line, bi_options or something. I am still playing with a mod which hasnt updated for V1.5 (Enhancement Pack) so would like to know how does one get night battles in V1.3 which can't have the bi_options line in either of the descr_strat files (BI or RTW in V1.3/V1.4).

I believe DimeBagHo is off on holiday or something as he hasn't responded to his XGM thread at TWC either. So if anyone else knows, specially with regard to V1.3, it will be much appreciated.

Thanks

they have night battles in 1.0 but I've never done them because the stupid game keeps saying my commander can't lead night battles

So this is Important.

Has someone got Night battles in the campaign using the 1.5 patch? not 1.6 BI. Its important to know if you can add options_bi without having BI and just the downloaded patch 1.5

Let me know.

I see. I suppose its the missing Traits and Triggers in the export_descr_charater_trait.txt file (as discussed above in detail).

Lt1956, do u have any idea from the above discussion as to why the night battles are not being enabled with 1.3 despite taking all the steps as one would take for 1.5 night battle activation except the line 'options bi' cannot be placed in the descr_strat.txt in V1.3.

Thanks.
