Sorry - it seems I forgot to mention the bug with faction unlocking in v1.3.![]()
There are, fortunately, two solutions to the problem though. One is relativly simple, while the other is a little more complex.
The simple solution is to patch up to R:TW 1.5. This can be done nice and easily by downloading either the 1.5 patch (for R:TW alone) or the 1.6 patch, (for R:TW with BI). This will overwrite the changes you have made though, so you will have to perform the unlocking action again. In addition, it may also make saves unplayable, so watch out if you have any running campaigns of value.
The more complex solution is to provide a description for the factions you have made playable. You can usually do this by entering:
"C:\Program Files\Activision\Rome - Total War\data\text\campaign_descriptions.txt"
If you installed R:TW into a custom directory then the file path will vary to the location where you originally installed it.
Once you have the file open, you should see some text which contains faction descriptions. Simply copy and paste the following in between two of the blocks of text on screen:
Ensure that there is a space of one line between the final faction mentioned here, and the following factions. Where the text "[enter description here]" is stated, you may place your own custom descriptive text of a faction if you wish.Code:{IMPERIAL_CAMPAIGN_ARMENIA_TITLE}Armenia {IMPERIAL_CAMPAIGN_ARMENIA_DESCR}[enter description here] {IMPERIAL_CAMPAIGN_DACIA_TITLE}Dacia {IMPERIAL_CAMPAIGN_DACIA_DESCR}[enter description here] {IMPERIAL_CAMPAIGN_NUMIDIA_TITLE}Numidia {IMPERIAL_CAMPAIGN_NUMIDIA_DESCR}[enter description here] {IMPERIAL_CAMPAIGN_SCYTHIA_TITLE}Scythia {IMPERIAL_CAMPAIGN_SCYTHIA_DESCR}[enter description here] {IMPERIAL_CAMPAIGN_SPAIN_TITLE}Spain {IMPERIAL_CAMPAIGN_SPAIN_DESCR}[enter description here] {IMPERIAL_CAMPAIGN_THRACE_TITLE}Thrace {IMPERIAL_CAMPAIGN_THRACE_DESCR}[enter description here]
Once you have completed the edit, save the file and load up R:TW. You should hopefully now have the ability to select any of the "new" factions without the trouble of a CTD.
Good luck Gimli![]()
