Updater2..what updates? Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

Hi there I am using Updater2 and have yet to see a message that a unit can update. I am on apoly gigantic map with good mod. I will try to attach my game as of yet below. I have warriors and samurai. what units will this mod tell you when you have an opportunity to update? Perhaps I did not install correctly, so I am willing to listen to what to do. I followed the diretions in the read me and also installed the update. Is it possible I am too early to update? Please advise...playing at the moment as of 01/14/04 @ 6.51pm PST.....Just wonderin if it is installed properly..

If the SAP2 Updater2 is correctly installed you should have a file named APOL_updater2 in the same folder as the other APOL files (...\Activision\Call To Power 2\ctp2_data\default\gamedata).

Have you added the line #include "APOL_updater2.slc" at the end of your APOL_main.slc file?

Tired of ads?

Forget APOL_main.slc you are playing GoodMod and this mod does not have such a main.slc something file. The file list can be found like in every other mod, except Apolyton Pack and WAW int the according script.slc, in GoodMod for ApolytonPack this file is called GM1_APOL_script.slc and an be found in your ..\ctp2_data\default\gamedata\ folder, just open it with any text editor of your choice and go to the end of that file there you find the file include list. Finally add there at the end this line:

#include "APOL_updater2.slc"

And maybe let one empty line between this line and the end of the file.

By the way the file APOL_updater2.slc should also be in the same folder like the file you should modify.

I forgot you were playing with the GoodMod, the Updater was originally designed by Peter Triggs for the Cradle mod and I adapted it for the SAP2.

Note it would not have changed my answer as I didn't knew that the GoodMod for the SAP2 was not using the APOL_main.slc file.

Is it working now?

You have to physically type the line at the end of the text.

Change the APOL_main.slc if you are playing with the SAP2

Change the GM1_APOL_script.slc if you are playing with the GoodMod for the SAP2.

Though the files could be at another location on your computer, because we don't have the same version of the game, here is their location on my computer. It should help you to find them on your hard drive.

C:\Program Files\Activision\Call To Power 2\ctp2_data\default\gamedata

Don't forget to add the english strings at the end of your APOL_main_str.txt (this file should be located in C:\Program Files\Activision\Call To Power 2\ctp2_data\english\gamedata). It should also work with the GoodMod as GM1_APOL_Strings.txt is importing the strings from the APOL_main_str.txt file.

Support Apolyton, buy Call to Power 2

Lets go one step at a time. Here's the
GM1_APOL_script.slc file that you need.

Put it in Activision\Call To Power 2\ctp2_data\default\gamedata and overwrite the one you've already got there.

If everything else is ok, it should work now. If not, don't reinstall. These are trivial problems, post back here.

Support Apolyton, pre-order Civilization IV

In this version, I think the first update is archers to mounted archers when you discover horseriding.

Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

Larsenex, you have all the update paths along with the advances that are triggering the update sequences in the text files you downloaded with the Updater2.
