I know, its pretty uncommon. The problem is that Rome has a lame one-use limit on the cheats. So lets say I wanted to finish my buildings in two cities. Id have to do one, then _restart the whole game, not just to the menu_ then reload the game, then do the other city. It's highly annoying!

Someone on www.twcenter.net made a program that edited the .EXE to allow you to use the cheats as much as you want in the same game.

Unfortunately, it required the un-encrypted no-cd .exe. Now, with the new patch, people use the mini image. But we're forced to use the un-encrypted .EXE, which they cant modify to allow cheats.

SO! With all this explintion, GLH, could you help out the Rome community and put the word around to whoever does these kind of things??

Much appriciated.

Thats actually not very useful advice, as when you are modding its extremely helpful to be able to 'accelerate' buildings and stuff.

Also, 1/2 the time in this game you want to cheat to *help* the ai - as you said, its not hard - in fact, its so easy that the AI needs all the help it can get. The 1.2 patch breaks the difficulty levels, in that HARD and VERY HARD actually give *you* the bonuses instead of the AI, so the game gets easier not harder.

Actually, in battle combat, and only battle combat, both you and AI get bonuses, making combats faster, but not harder or easier.
