If this question has already been asked and answered a dozen times, feel free to lynch me.

I'm using patch 1.2 and I want to edit the battle_models.modeldb. I've formatted it (from a fresh 1.2 install) with this python script. When I try to start Medieval 2 with the formatted but uneditted database, I simply get a black screen with a white standard cursor.

Is there any solution?

Thanks in advance.
