    Default unlimited men on the battlefield...

    medieval2.exe --game.unlimited_men_on_battlefield is supposed to be the command line to trigger this, but it gives me a fatal error on startup every time. Has anyone gotten it to work?

    People have gotten it to work. The fatal error that you are encountering is probably due to some error in editing that you made. If you had made backups, get the original files back up or do a clean install if you can't fix your error

    Open your medieval2.preferences.config file in notepad and make the changes there - the shortcut is more trouble than it's worth.

    If you want to persist, make sure that the parameter (ie unlimited_men...) is outside the quotation marks

    You're right, this was much easier. Thanks.
