Shogun 2: Total War Message Board  

Ok, I got the file. I am still using version 3241 build of the game (I have way to many mods installed that will be ruined with the updates). Anyway, the archers now is as strong as the katana unit heroes plus they are now immune to cold, heat and attrition (at least they should, not tested). I did not change the accuracy and reload. I just change the ammo (to 100) and the range (to 300) so your new samurai archers will have a chance to draw their sword and engage.

I also unlock all heroes unlimited recruitment. The range of the hero archers is the same as the chosokabe samurai archers since they used the same ammo.

So i managed to edit the troops, saved file. But at first try nothing changed, then looked at the patch2.pack and edited units there, and when i tried to launch the game, crash... Anyway to get around this?

I don't know the repercussions of editing the patch.pack, but I hope you made a backup of it before you edited it. I encounter the back to desktop thingy, but that was when I try to create a unit using the editor. Anyway, the crash usually means that the rest of the game did not agree with what you change. Without knowledge of what you did, I would not know what to tell you.

yeah i did make a back up, put it back game worked.

I changed Takeda light cavalry to double units higher armor, defense, and attack.

Changed Fire projecting mangonels double units, higher accuracy, more ammo, and defense.

Hmm, the edit is simple enough. I just learned last night that the PFM editor has many errors in naming the columns. Also, if you did a lot of editing, the editor itlself will not save all the edits (randomly) and leave the game unable to start or crash. My game last night won't launch even though I put back the original files.

Save slowly. Try editing the cavalry units first and start the game. If it works, edit the mangonels (somehow, I suspected the mangonels to be the problem). Modders do that to isolate and recognized where the problem is. Also, before you do some editing, make sure the game is working in all modes (campaign, custom battles etc.).

alright ill try that.

The pack I made seems to be working fine. But when I save and load the game, a bunch of the arts is automatically mastered. I don't know why it does that. Can you look at my pack and see whats causing the game to do that?
