Use the other BAI, this depends on people's PCs. Both BAI scripts work, they don't cause the crashes, the user's OS crashes the program(game) from my research.

I will probably make it optional, I wanted it to get tested so it is mandatory for that reason. Deleting the supply script might work, I don't know. Using the console to remove the ancillary will work in-game, once a character has 8 they can't get more so problem solved.

The UI crashes should be fixed in the next release. A few people helped me find various things that caused it in other mods.

Eventually there will be a release with bug fixes and new content, much is already done. And of course some of the unfinished stuff will get finished in the First Age, not sure how much. I will probably play a campaign myself here soon, I haven't played this game in awhile.

If your siege battles work in vanilla TATW they should work in all mods.

Custom settlements in custom battles still need to be setup. The rest should work.

I take year breaks all the time. Naval battles, the 2nd Age, and bugs/unfinished work have been worked on here and there since the last release. I simply do not rush. Any game breaking bugs will be fixed right away when reported so testing can resume, the rest can wait.

Use z3n BAI option. I assume you do not have Windows 7, which is what G5 BAI was made for.

Deleting the 'descr_geography_new.db' file in data folder might work, it will make a new one automatically.

Custom settlements in custom battles will probably crash for all, I haven't set it up for the First Age yet. They should all work in Third and Fourth Age though.

If it doesn't say 'install' then something you already have installed is in the way, which is why it says modify/repair/remove. What that is I don't know, I am not sitting at your PC to find out. Try remove and then try to install would be a good start.

I have seen people say having DAC installed can mess with installing other submods, could be that. I never installed DAC and never will so I don't know.

No one cares to. I have always had it installed and so have never installed it myself, so I can't help you. It also varies from system to system, I don't know or care what systems any of you are using.

I am still trying to figure out why people are using anything except Windows 7 honestly, so I don't care to learn about other setups:P. Not worth the effort.

Did you install all the needed files? This is not a bug I have seen reported by anyone else.

This is worth checking out if you like roleplay; Twcenter.net. I personally do not care for roleplaying much but the writing is good and I plan to use some for historic events to make the campaigns more immersive.

I never turned it off, I use the console all the time when testing stuff. It should not be disabled or certain scripts will not work.

When I feel like doing it, unless someone else does it first. That is what we are all waiting for, I don't like it anymore than you guys do and I don't have someone else to do what I want like you guys do:P.

It will take a few more hours to get it as playable as the First Age was when released. When I want to spend those few hours doing it I don't know. I have spent time adding new stuff and fixing old stuff for the entire mod so I may release that stuff before I finish up the Second Age Campaign.

There is a link in the install directions that leads to a forum where you can ask all installation questions you desire.

twcenter has instructions on that, I don't use steam for any games to know anything about it.

I didn't do anything with tower animations, it is either a TATW bug or just a random hiccup in the game engine unless the file itself got randomly corrupted.

If you were fighting in a custom settlement it could be from that, I will need to know which settlement.

Try uninstalling from Control Panel. Windows will still think it is installed until you do that, just deleting the files is not enough.

I am not familiar with the install or uninstall process for this, after a few people got it working so I knew it worked I had no reason to care anymore. The installers will get better simply because I want to learn more, but I don't know when.

Don't disable UAC if you don't want to, you can always disable it later if you think it is causing a problem. You are not installing a program since this uses M2TW, whether UAC was disabled when installing M2TW should be more important. UAC cannot be fully disabled anyway, not that I know of:P. I personally have UAC as disabled as possible on my laptops that have it.

It shouldn't even get in the way of installation, only the actual .exe should be seen as a potential threat to UAC (and is the only file I could possibly sneak malicious code into), all files that get installed are not so far as I know. It may affect M2TW in ways I don't know of though, that has nothing to do with this mod specifically.

Installing as Admin is important so the files can go where they need to, and as long as the files are there nothing else should matter. I don't use Win Vista/8+ so this mod was not made for them anymore than M2TW was.

The free-upkeep tech tree goes on to give pop growth bonuses and religion amplifiers at the town level and higher so these two aspects of the game can be sped up a bit more via buildings. I felt they were a little too slow with not much to affect it in game. Anyone think otherwise? I don't want it to feel fast either.

The economy aspect has been fixed for the next release, there is a bug with farm buildings in the current release (I tried something new and it didn't work right:P). Certain buildings have also been improved a bit to have less cost/less build time/bigger bonuses. Any buildings that you don't think are worth building just list them and I will look them over. Also a new tech tree has been added that gives up to five more free-upkeep slots, four of which can be attained at the village level so this should help with troop upkeep problems in less developed regions for a small investment.

As for the units, I will get that fixed for the next release. I must not have noticed. Thanks for the feedback.

The script is bugged or I never got around to adding that part yet, I will get it fixed.

Anyone can make a video or a new installer if they like, the people that install it properly don't care to. I never installed it, I made it on the PC I use.

I never claimed to be nice:). I used to kill people for a living after all. Thanks for the instructions though, I will paste them elsewhere for others. Apparently my way of saying the same thing is not working for others.

Try installing it again would be the first thing, the PCP UI Fix2 only changes the images not any code so no idea why it would cause an issue like yours. Try using the file swapper again to put files where they should be when playing the First Age also, I may have mixed something up.

They may just be bugs in the mod that need to be fixed, I recall someone reporting Gondolin having orc voices awhile back. I will check it out.

I don't have the time or desire to, I just release this to save time on testing it myself.

If someone else wants to repack the files into a different installer and send me a link I will use it. I have never made an installer this large before so I need to learn more before I do it differently.
