Is there any plans to have the full Blood and Smoke mod? I love tweaking vanilla NTW3 ever since coming over from Darthmod, but I miss my fogbanks. Also, will there be a fix for volley fire in...

Also, how about a fix for musket smoke effects? That's the biggest thing for me.

Sir, this mod is broken on the newly released Linux version, which cannot use the Windows mod manager. Mind thinking about creating a fixed version?

Hey everyone!

As a Linux user who just rebought E:TW for my Linux box, I love the game and have for a long time, and I have worked on a little compilation of mods and changes I want to use, but...

To address any of this, we really need a version of PFM that works well on Linux, trying to use the windows version in wine does not work acceptably well.

I would also like to mention since the Linux E:TW spawns all of BSM's smoke effects cocentrically, this causes all of the particle effects to be composited against one another all at once, crashing...

Its a bit more than that I think, I also believe that some of the smoke is not displaying at all, and some of the fogbanks that are dispalying are the wrong size and dispersion.

Jam I corrected the case sensitivity issue, but attempting to load the Empire realism packset still produces a CTD on load.

Really? I get the smoke puffs rendering, but they dont animate right on my end, are you sure that your output looks like that video on the thread?

Nicollo, the Blood and Smoke mod gives E:TW enhanced battlefield smoke effects. See this thread:...

Nicollo, have you gotten BSM_On working correctly?

I would love to do my own modding now that E:TW has come to Linux, but the mod tool that the community uses is Windows-only. Is there a way to edit .pack files with standard tools found on Linux? ...

Please also note that the Blood and Smoke mod included in the essentials.pack causes the linux version to crash on load, and the BSM explicitly made for Empire does load, but produces horribly bugged...

Ok, looks like we have isolated the mods not working on Linux issue, the code that looks for the mod .pack files does not properly parse case sensitivity, and thus always looks for a mod filename...

Ok, looks like we have isolated the issue, the code that looks for the .pack files does not properly parse case sensitivity, and thus always looks for a mod filename that is completely lowercase. I...

The file preferences.empire_script.txt does not display in text editor on Linux. I am trying to use Leafpad to read it, but when I open it, all I see inside the the letter w. Anyone know what is...

Thats a good idea, but there should be 2 levels of tightness, with the tighter one coming into effect with the appropriate drill tech.

Hey! I have Empire Total War on Linux and I can confirm that even putting any sort of extra .pack file in the /data/ dir will cause the game to crash on start, even if the packs are not explicitly...

The users of Planetary Annihilation have made a cross platform mod manager for thier game using the Atom shell framework instead of .net, you might want to look into that.

Linux user here, wanting to know, now that E:TW has come to Linux if it will be possible to port Darthmod and its launcher to Linux? I know games like Planetary Annihilation have a platform agnostic...
