Mods

[ranger044]

just a quick question,

are there any big mods that are for just plain EUR? not VV or Gold. I don't have fast enough internet connection to download VV and i don't live nearby any stores that sell computer games.

It's been a while since anyone has worked on some pre-VV mods, but you can try any of the ones listed in the Master Mod List.

 

[ranger044]

thanks, most of those seem to be either unfinished or discontinued though. I'll have to get VV as soon as possible or make my own mod

Also my mod (link in sig) has a version for Rome without Vae Victis, but it is rather basic and doesn't include for example the map changes as I did not do them until well after I had gotten Vae Victis. Might be worth a look anyway.

I'd recommend Brython mod made by Ijtzoi. It adds a couple of new tribal nations and has custom events for them.

Lofman and Wave, thanks for the suggestions. I think i'll go with my own mod though. I've abandoned the medieval for now, i'm making one starting at the third war of the diadochi

Cool Now you should have no problems with mods

i have just one question... my game still won't create new province texture files. i tested it by deleting one and nothing, then delete all and still nothing. it only creates malta's (103) and this is very frustrating >.<

 

[Cheexsta]

Yeah, that has me stumped. The only thing I can think of is that Windows and/or Steam is causing some weirdness in the files. So what happens in-game when you delete the textures? Do provinces still have textures, or do they appear blank?

 

[ranger044]

the game crashes at the main menu. the loading screens say that the game is creating the files but nothing. it does however create all of the path.bin files which adds to my confusion and frustration.

 

[Cheexsta]

At exactly what point does the game crash? Is there a specific loading message it gets up to when it crashes?

Sorry about the tirade of questions, just hoping that we can narrow this down for you

 

[ranger044]

the game completely finishes loading, it crashes once i select singleplayer from the main menu, with the centurion standing there.

 

[Wave]

That sounds like a problem in loading the map at all, or at least showing it. Definitely weird.

I cannot say anything else but the good old suggestion: Reinstall the game if possible

 

[Camara]

If it crashes on the single player, it's likely the texture files. For some reason some pcs can't calculate the textures so it crashes. Try giving the files to someone to run your mod, calculate the texture files, and then send them to you (and place them in the vanilla folder).

 

[ranger044]

thanks, i'll do that once i finish my work. as of right now i'm just copying the nearest province's texture file to the one i'm creating/editing
