Is anyone actually able to see the text descriptions that are supposed to be shown in the encycleopdia or unit descriptions. I have all of the text files in the ENC subdirectory and despite trying other directories I cannot get the text to show. Any ideas from anyone?

If you are using version 5.01 and your enc files are located in the ENC directory, when you select a unit from the encyclopedia you will see the text below the data. Notice, however that only a few (about 300?)of these text files have been done. Most of the German armour on page one of the Germany unit screen have text files.You will undoubtedly notice that many of these are those from SP1 and are not very well done (IMHO). :p If anybody would like to type new text files for units, I am happy to coordinate an effort to update the encyclopedia. Just send the text file to me with the name of the text file desciptive of the unit. for example ChurchillIV.txt

Hello Stuart Mills. OK, I'm Game, for a few enteries. What do I need to do? Exactly what information do you require in the Encyclopedia entry?
