    Editing Prestige for Realm Divide - Help!

    Hello beautiful people,

    I recently got back into playing Shogun II and have been having a blast with the expanded Japan mod alongside Darthmod for the normal campaign. I was wary of how all the...

    Oh really? Presumably not everything in terms of the visual and gameplay affects though? Is it relatively straightforward to apply them all?

    Korea?

    Greetings everyone, long time no see.

    I cleared up some space on my PC and started thinking about playing Shogun 2 again after reading some things about the Japanese invasions of Korea. I saw that...

    Re: CTD on battles

    It's the same for me. The campaign runs fine, but any battle, regardless of size, will run for a minute or two and then CTD. It's incredibly frustrating. I've not had this problem with any other mod,...

    Interestingly, the next tier of barracks seems to allow them to be recruited again - so I'm building it, will see if it actually allows them, if it kicks another one out, or nothing at all.

  9. Re: Is Praise The Lord off ASAP Rocky's new album not a sample of one of the victory songs on the RS2/3 soundtrack?

    Indeed, a little further digging reveals that the distinctive flute sound is not original to Viktor but instead lifted from GarageBand:

    The track is called Midsummer again and it's by Viktor Tärnholm, off 'Viktor's Album', from the RSIII files. (Midsummer_again.mp3 in data/sounds/music). It's also used in 'Midsummer time v2'.

  11. Re: Is Praise The Lord off ASAP Rocky's new album not a sample of one of the victory songs on the RS2/3 soundtrack?

    It really does sound like it, and annoyingly, there's little to no information about it available online.

    Maybe ask Skepta if he's a fan?

    These kinds of things can often be a bit *shrug* given the age of the engine. I doubt CA made RTW with 2 monitors in mind.

  17. Re: My experiences thus far with the Boii - is AI Rome a little TOO strong?

    Yes, the lands the Boii have to expand into are significantly lower in immediate wealth, unless you opt to expand south and fight the Dacians (as historically)! Much of the central Germanian regions...

  20. [Released] Re: Expanded FOTS map with Korea, Outer Manchuria and Far East Russia

    I know; my point was it's surprising that no one has tried to make one of the expanded maps compatible with it. That would be the dream!

    Is it just me, or has no one made a Darthmod compatible expanded map after all these years?
