Hehe,

It's actually a picture taken from my early mod. I made icons for all units and buildings myself. I got over 750 now (both for NW & BFE).

Info: http://cossacksworld.ucoz.co.uk/index/0-189 2.2 Creating Icons with Giga Pack

The only way you can implement them, is by having those icons and then write down the numbers in the various md files. Since you are changing the md files for this, it would also cause synchronisation errors with those who have a vanilla version. That's why I will only release them with my mod, cause there's no use for them otherwise.

I guess you will have to wait a bit or bake me 10 chocolat cakes bunny

See, I could give them to you, but I have directly added those icons to my mod md files, and as such for the vanilla version of the game , someone should add the numbers of all the icons to the vanilla md files. Then they could be used by other people, but only in some sort of 'editor' mod. Perhaps I'll release a separate editor mod for the vanilla version where people can build easier maps on and then play with the vanilla version to avoid the synch errors, but I don't know, I got lots more things to do and right now, the site and my mod have priority over other things, unless I get help from someone.

Hope that makes sense?

Kind Regards

[E-BEL]Angel

Thanks, it's not hard, just a bit of work, thats all.

Yes. This message is stored in Data\Text\text33.txt #MB_03 . You can change this message because it's just there to warn people that they got a version that may not be compatible for online play. This message is triggered whenever a change has been done to any of the files listed in Data\Filelist.lst
It doesn't mean you cant play online, I sometimes get that message when I add maps manually, but you can still play. But if you change for example unit statistics ( life, damage) in the md files then you will have a synchronisation error on playing online, if and only if the person you play with doesn't have the same version as you. Basically this means, all file's listed in FileList, if there are changes done to them, then you have to distribute a 'mod/patch' to be able to play online with it. Hope this makes somewhat sense.

Meh, how weird. I went looking in the text files aswell and as you say everything is fine, then i went looking in my game, but for me it the correct hint shows up:

See, if your text files are indeed ok ( i'll take you word for it) then it must be something else causing this. To be honest, I don't know what it could be at the moment, but I do find it weird that it shows up wrong uberhaubt. Is it a legal version you are on? Cause I have heard that the pirated version has issues with starforce being disabled but thats just the start up routine of starforce that is gone then. Starforce is still present and randomly checks for a licensed disk, crack and a couple other things and if it encounters unsuspected issues with these, it corrupts the files, sometimes even removes dvd drivers,... So to me it sounds like some kind of corruption you got there.

Regards

Ah well, I don't know actually, I stopped looking when I saw I had the hint for 'raise rebellion' and assumed that it would be there for 'attempt on commander'. Doesn't really matter actually, because its working for me but not for you , yet we seem to have both the hints in our text files, so its something else causing this not to show up for you and at the moment I don't know what it is.
This may sound silly but, did you by any chance tick off the option 'show hints' in the options menu? But even if so, it still wouldn't explain why it showed the wrong hint for you on one of the above images.

Hehe, it's not because you can show a screen of a DVD, that you can actually proove you bought the game ;-)

That's kinda illegal actually, as weird as it may sound, and I gotta watch out with stuff like this. You never know who's reading along. Actually can I ask why some of the screens above have Chech (?) language and other screens are in English language?

Quote (|KGR|-^K|o|K^-)

Same as you.

I don't know, I have never bought a 'white label' version. It could be that the version is not complete, but that wouldn't make sense , ...I just don't know.

The only thing I can think off right now is: have a look in your text folder and besides the .txt files are there any .missed text files aswell? If so, right click on them and open with notepad and copy paste the lines here.
Alternatively, post the content of Data\loading.log and Data\log.txt in code tags to see if something goes wrong there.

Best Regards

No problem.

Nah don't think I understand enough of your language to play my game with it bunny

Have you ICQ?

No, but I mainly use MSN ( Live) Messenger. Now that I think of it, didn't we talk on msn in a shared conversation once with KGR CatWeazle about clanlogo's or was that not you?
In any case, I'm sure your smart enough to find my msn adress here on the site if you wish so.

Quote (|KGR|-^K|o|K^-)

NO some things are different, but thats your main folder, and as such, there's little interesting there too see. Far more interesting is the content of the Data folder, but even then if you would show me a picture, it would be hard to 'see' whats wrong. There's too many files in there to just go on looks.

Quote (|KGR|-^K|o|K^-)
this in log.txt

Ok, nothing unusual here. Those Warnings are standard, they are the same in Napoleonic Wars, and some even carry on to Heroes Of Annihilated Empires. The missing files (textures ) are carried over from earlier versions ( AC/Alexander) and as such are not problematic.

However I don't like it to see ' warnings of missing files' and as such I have fixed them on my mod.

Here is Data\textures\Pyro_my1.tga,
Here is Data\textures\Pyatno.tga
Here is Data\Dialogs\v\BrigMarkers.xml
Here is Data\Dialogs\v\BrigMarkersMini.xml
Here is Data\Shaders\DeviceStates\BumpWater.xml

That should fix those missing files & errors.

What I would like to see from you aswell is:

Data\loading.log (right click-open with notepad)
Battle For Europe\install.txt

Oh, and do me a favour, post a link here to your latest version of the clan logo packet, because i keep on forgetting to go on the kgr forum to get the latest link.

Regards

E.A.

Thanks for the clan logo's, I'll update them in my upload section with it.

Those file's, well you wont see any ingame changes, but, the less errors in loading log and log text the quicker the game loads up. Those 5 files ( well 4) arent used in game, as I said they are carried over from previous version. This is typically gsc, very sloppy in transferring files from one version to another ( sometimes they forget files, sometimes there's too many files,..)
As to my mod, the fixing , is only a small part off the mod. I fixed as much things that GSC hasnt done. For the rest the mod adds new things like tools for the editor, random map mode and much much more.

As to

Quote (|KGR|-^K|o|K^-)

Its a bad set up of the mine. The terrain is 3D, the sprites 2D, so they need to be aligned with the 3D terrain. There's an editor in the game to set these coordinates up. But I can't give you the fixed file because its modding the md and it will cause synchronisation errors on playing if you play with people who have the normal version. For this one you will have to wait till my mod comes out.

Quote (|KGR|-^K|o|K^-)
for me is MSN really shit program

Been using it for 10 years now, for me there isnt anything out that is as easy as this , but thats just me.

Quote (|KGR|-^K|o|K^-)

Very well. Loading log is actually more interesting then install.txt, as loading log will show what isnt installed on loading, but spam em both pls.
