I was wondering if anyone here who follows twcenter or another board for ETW modding caught the thread on how to unlock the special edition units. I was about to do it, but got lazy. Now when I went back to look for it, I found out the mods deleted the thread. Did anyone catch how to do it?

Uhuh, I found naval combat extremely easy. Simply run all your ships around in circles so they get to fire both broadsides at the enemy all the time. The enemy won't do the same, so you'll do like twice as much damage as them.

i found something new . First i use razor release + JBeckman file + JBeckman manual patch + Revloader , everything is ok but it has something strange . When i use gentleman duel gentleman enemy , and my gentleman lost ( killed ) but he didn't die . I still use him move back my land . Another strange is when he visit a city enemy , he can't found rake enemy . The money come in 1 turn is too high . But the video duel isn't " hitch /slowdown" .

After that , i use Update2 for my folder game ( not reinstall ) , evething go normal . The gentleman lost in duel ( killed ) and i can't use him anymore . When he visit the city , he found rake enemy , and the money come in 1 turn isn't high ( i'm poor right now Very Happy ) . But there has a problem , the video duel is " hitch /slowdown" .

So my solution is :use update2 + empire.exe from original ( patch ) ( not use empire.exe razor update2 ) and revloader . Now everything is perfect , video duel isn't " hitch /slowdown" anymore .... I guess razor's empire.exe release has some problems .

( sr but my english isn't good )

Just wrote a small tut on how to replace music over at TWC. I guess some of you guys might want to replace some of the music to "Master and Commander" or what ever.

You need to use the "Pack File Manager" found here
http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showthread.php?t=234546

Open the "sounds_music.pack" in
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\empire total war\data"
with the Pack File Manager and you will see this.



Lets say you want to replace "music\land\mus058_battle_western_orc_[loop].mp3"
with the theme from lets say "Master and Commander"



You first have to rename the "Master and Commander" song to (in this case)
"music\land\ mus058_battle_western_orc_[loop].mp3"

Right Click on the song you want to change in the Pack Manager.

Set it to "patch" in "Change Pack Type", then hit "Replace File".

Browse for your renamed "Master and Commander" tune and hit open.

Save the changes.

Done!.

Oh, and don't forget to back up.

Don't think you can. You generate "priests" that can turn the Indians around by letting them stand inside their regions, but that's it I think.

Think you can get catholic priests if you capture region that has catholic church in it already
Not sure about this though

That might be the only way actually, unless that church turns to protestant cause you took it.

So let me see here, the way to get this game working as it should, is to install the game, use razordox update 2(which also fixes the sound problem), then replace the main.pack with the one jbeckman provided in order to gain access to the special units. Is that correct?

Before you apply the patch, be sure to copy the files (I copied all of them), which are supplied with the original rzr release. It took me a while to figure that out, and without those files, the patch will not work correctly Very Happy

your leader determinates your nations main religion. There is nothing you can do about it.

Keep in mind church had WAY less influence in that time period (unlike the medival era from 600 - 1600 ish).

Though it is easier forming alliances if you share the same religion, gov type etc.

I'm trying to install the update but I keep getting the error "old file doesn't exist", or "files do not match". I've just installed the original Razor release. I tried putting the update.exe in the install folder and in the data folder.

Edit: the solution is given a couple of posts above mine Razz

Funny thing, I tried exactly the same ETW install on 2 different computers (simply copied it over w/o installing), one crashes pretty frequently, the other one does not. The difference: stable one has vista 32 and 181.02 nvidia drivers on e8500, and unstable one has vista 64 and nvidia 182.06 on i7 920... go figure, what's wrong with it. I suspect, it's the nvidia drivers, in my case anyways. Gonna try rolling back the drivers to 181.02 on i7 to see if it's gonna help

Only marginally easier. A little bribe is generally more than enough to overcome religious/ideological barriers.

I have a most strange problem.

Previously the savegames were showing the save time one hour ahead of my system clock.
Today they are showing two hours ahead, it is a bit inconvenient, anybody have any ideas ?
