Hey gang -- had to reinstall everything to reformatted PC and 2x tries to RSIII working have failed. The installation instructions could be a bit of my problem.
So I installed clean all the way to...

Neep: Truly what I needed (understatement).

THANK YOU!

Good, I guess I managed to activate the script every time! Just went to rebellion at 85 settlements!

Question: So what do I do? I guess the gamey thing would be to move all the rebellious guys...

Good advice. Thanks guys.

Uh, one problem....I cannot get Massalia to start on 0-turn. I can get Syracuse and the other "swaps" to start that way.

Any trick I need to try? I click 0-turn...

Thanks for the comments everyone.

meerk: As Sparta, I don't share borders with Rome, but usually within about 6-10 turns they are invading me.

Suki: indeed -- AI plays dumb.......

So i...

Gang: longtime player, though usually as Rome or Cimbri (hey, I'm a hairy German tribesman, what can I say?).

I like the challenge of playing as one of the great Greek cities, but what can I do...

Can I use a four digit year ? 1536 (AUC)?

dvk: RSII simply the best mod I have ever played and I would love to see its continued development.

Thank you to you and the RSII team.

Gents: I am sure this is easy to mod and has been noted time and again.....but the site is slow and my searches for existing information have not been productive.

What file do I tinker with? ...

Thank you kind sir!

Hey gang -- longtime player, but two questions I could not find the answers to/have never experienced.

(I'm still playing 2.5 BTW, good game going). Will get to 2.6 soon.

1) How do I get...

Will do -- will try a bit of "plain" DLV and then add some sub-mods.

Thank you --- I'll wait on the sub-mods.

Jeez, I get sent somewhere hot and dry for a bit and when I get back DLV is all mature and grown up! :)

I see we now have a CA 1.2 patch and DLV 3.1 plus sub-mods up the wazoo.

Someone...

I don't know about you guys, but I just got my ASS kicked by turn 80 as HRE -- I tried to expand rapidly and lost my offensive armies -- plus a bunch of family/generals.....wow -- this is a good...

What if I have lots of copies of SVCHOST.exe running? Am I virus ridden? Jeez, I getting a rash just thinking about it.

Good point on it not being medieval.....sometimes I guess we get hung on on gameplay and forget about what period we're playing!

dd and Rep:

You decided not to go with the governors and generals (ZappA's?) thing where you choose which career path? Just curious as to why? Does it conflict with the general's career trait...

More info guys....what difficulty are you playing on? Perhaps you set it on the "lighter" setting and that breeds some weird results?

I tended to think it was quiet too, but all heck will break...

Hey -- we're all here pulling in the same direction. No big deal.

Great point on Gibraltar and some other straits by others -- I have not had Fez as a crusade target yet, so I had not seen that...

Actually the majority of the crusades went through Byzantine Territory and thence through Turkish lands -- the armies took heavy losses in these crossings, but it was far "easier" to march than to...

dd ...are you kidding me? you are amazing...that is an excellent idea you have there and I love the "thrown in dungeon" bit.

OUTSTANDING!

Very cool -- thanks rep!

I agree with the removal of land bridges, but on the other hand, I have seen Crusading armies trying to move through the Ukraine and around through Central Asia to get to the Holy Land.

Any...

The way around it is to make sure the city you are building at is full of troops so that the general is immediately outside of the city. If you want to build a governor, then don't have the city...

Personally, playing as HRE, I'm signing up Free Company Longbowmen, Pavise Crossbows and the Pikemen (Swiss or otherwise) like crazy.

I dominated the Venetians early in the game by using large...

Guys -- noted this in another thread as well: "generals" purchased from fortress later in the game begin as governors. When they arrive, they are already designated as career governor, moving them...

ZaPPa: When you can build general units (in a fortress) they always become governors....they become governors when built, you can move them out right away, but the trait is already set.

Sort of...

Funny item to add.....I did not notice the 1180 vs. 1080 start! I saw it was 1202 and wondered how I went through 120 years so fast! LOL.


dd: thanks for your update. Have been seeing good...

Fair Enough......trust me, I love DLV, not knocking it. I guess I should have said "alliances" are not working.

Huskarl,
Basically I'm trying to help der draaken and crew formulate what might be included in 2.1.......with a special emphasis on possibly improving the diplomacy aspects.....no one seems to...

sorry for the long title gang. (knights and knaves, dismounted order knights mode, plus Zappa stuff) That's what I'm playing with. One other note: I cut the field costs in 1/2 and set devastation...

Thank you Ordensritter!

For others: he means right click on the .bat file and got to edit and put this line:

medieval2.exe @DLV_ext.cfg --io.file_first

in place of what was in there.

I...

Did exactly what you said, but not working, DLV starts and then crashes after load screen.

Please provide exactly what the "Launch_DLV_ext.bat" file looks like after you "Add "...

Want to use this.....where do I find the dismounted order knights mod? I have knights and knaves, but searched all over for the other an cannot find it.....is that the real name of the file.

I...

Thanks Tokus...nice pic! Is that you in the armor? :yes:

Having spent the last month in places the U.S. government finds of interest, I am back.

DD: what needs testing?

Others: I like to test stuff....so if you have small mods, etc. let me...

Yes, as Zappa said, the answer is called "house rules" -- play each general as they would act.....no general is going to go on a suicide mission......unless they have extreme loyalty.

House...

Just to provide more data: I have an assassin with +5 skill and I'm getting a 95% chance to kill foreign family members, but at like 15% for merchants. I cannot help but believe that merchants...

I've been so busy my play testing has been reduced severely. I'll download and play it this weekend and have some feedback by Monday.

Sounds fantastic Oda! No one gave you feedback because they...
