That's a very neat way of solving this problem, I like it a lot! I'm really pleased your problem has been solved now :) You may wish to upload your completed map to our downloads section as well :)

Unfortunately you're not able to do that. An invading army will always invade whenever it arrives on the map, there's no way to delay or water that behaviour down in any way. I'm not actually 100% sure what the date button does. I think it's the equivalent of delaying the event until January of the next year too, but I'm not confident about that. There are no records of what that does anywhere and I've never used it.

Hi @Kronoxus, welcome to StrongholdNation! I've fixed your post formatting issues. Apologies for that. This is next on my list of things to fix on the site. Thanks for writing into us, I've taken a look at your map. The problem was you were setting the "date" option to +1, which should have been at 0 (circled in red below). You are looking for the delay invasion option (circled in blue). The delay option will delay the event by the amount of months you specify, but you were also adding in the "date" option, which was why you were getting the result you were. I set the event of months to +1 and it successfully delayed the invasion by one month. :)

Have you tried changing the Saxon Warlord to another unit in Stronghold 2 to see if it works properly for that unit?

Hi @GOGHacker Thanks for your information, but please don't double post as per the site rules. I've also removed your other spam topic, please see this doesn't happen again. As always, feel free to shoot myself or another team member a PM directly if you have any issues with the rules.

Hi @MSTVD, welcome to the site! That download is very old and was done several years ago. I've since written the official tutorial for transferring over Stronghold Legends units into Stronghold 2. Like @Mathew Steel said, it may not be compatible with the newer versions of the game. Have you taken a look through this to see if you can find the missing files, though?

Excellent "slogan" there at the end @EaglePrince, really made me chuckle a bit :lol:

Hi @Bronthion, welcome to StrongholdNation! If you transfer a model across to the other game, all previous animations that model had will no longer be played in the game. This is because when you are changing the uni file, you're overwriting any resources loaded for that unit. It also wouldn't work because you would need to alter that animation and change it to match your new unit. What you could try, however, is to rename some of the Ice Queen animation files to that of the lady. But I do not believe this would work for the reasons I outlined above.

It?s fantastic to see everyone so passionate about the site! We?re certainly going to achieve something fabulous and it?s great to have you on board! Long live the nation! :)

The reason that is possible is because the game .exe file is illegally modified by people. As you will understand, this is highly questionable at best, against the site rules and unless you have written permission from Firefly to do so, we will be unable to assist you in doing so. As such, I therefore ask you do not persist in bringing this topic up, and as usual if you have any questions on the site rules feel free to shoot myself or another team member a PM. In terms of what you?re asking in this question, I?m afraid right now I?m not able to provide you an answer because I don?t have my laptop, so can?t access the game files. Perhaps another team member can help you in the meantime.

In light of the HUNDREDS of hours @Crusader1307 puts into the site, articles he writes and forum posts he answers, we've decided to promote him to an Administrator! His work is absolutely outstanding, and this is a very long overdue promotion. We've also decided to promote @Mathew Steel to a full team member and Moderator- Mathew has been helping out on the forums here now for a very long time and has done a sterling job of helping in the areas of the site he already moderates. A very well deserved promotion for both of you, and thank you very much!! Your contributions to the site cannot possibly be put into terms and we're incredibly grateful. Thank you! :)

Hi @blackperils, welcome to StrongholdNation! A lot of the code in the earlier games is compiled and thus unfortunately cannot be reversed back into a readable state again. However, that's not to say you can't still modify things. Is there anything specific you'd like to modify? It's certainly quite plausible still that you can modify things, it just depends on exactly what you'd like to modify and how.

Hi @taker1, welcome to StrongholdNation! Does this happen on any other graphics level? It sounds to me like it could be that you're trying to run the game on a graphics level which is too high for your PC which is causing performance issues. It may be possible to play around with your graphics settings to fix this but it's not guaranteed. As @kian suggests, can you post some more detail on your PC specifications for us?

Thanks guys. I'll look into this.

Hi @Lord Stronghold Please see this topic about renaming topics. The same rules apply to staff renaming forums. In accordance with the rules stated within that topic I ask you not to pursue it further on the forum; if you have any questions feel free to shoot me a PM directly.

Great post! Thanks @Mathew Steel!

Perfect now- thanks. :)

Hi @CyberCorpse Thanks very much for your topic and making your campaigns, however the image which you have uploaded has been flagged by MalwareBytes Anti-Malware as malicious- for this reason I've removed it from your forum post. While I have no doubt it is not the image itself which is malicious, it is in fact the entire domain which is being flagged and we cannot have links to (or embedded content of any kind) from domains which are associated with this kind of malware on the forum unfortunately. Could you please upload your image on a new image hosting website and re-post it in the thread?

Yes.. that is another possibility where an entire map file can become corrupted... if that does happen, unfortunately there's just nothing you can do. You'll have to re-create the entire map. Don't open it again too because it'll mean you need to restart your game to see the terrain normal again. From my experience however, this is very rare.

Yeah this happens sometimes. I have no idea what causes it but it's incredibly infuriating. I've found that restarting the game fixes this. If that doesn't work deleting the cliff of whatever caused this issue and then restarting the game fixes it. Either way, a restart usually fixes it eventually.

Hi @erniewanida, welcome to the site! What version of Stronghold Crusader 2 are you running? Also have you tried verifying the integrity of your game cache? To do this, go to your Steam games library. Right click on the title of Crusader 2, then click "Properties" on the pop-up panel. A new window with several tabs should appear. Click "Local Files" then "Verify integrity of game cache." This should scan, repair, and (if needed) replace all files associated with the game.

Ok- I'll try to take a look at this tomorrow. We have a few files in the queue that need approving.

So that I remove the correct file- your submission number is #550, correct?

I'd say 1.5 as even if they were created beforehand, it's still been released with them. I think that makes more sense.

Yes- please do submit this pack to our downloads section! It would be incredibly beneficial to have these maps uploaded here. :) I am pleased to announce that they do appear to work on the 1.4.1 version. Though whether if anyone uses any of the new textures within the game they still work is a question yet to be answered. I've already gone ahead and added a new game version in the downloads for Stronghold 2 for 1.5 as well. I have noticed that on a press release Firefly wrote this: Has anyone been able to try this yet and worked out how it is done?
