Yep, pretty much same here. Most of what I would "like" would go beyond the scope of the mod and really be new features to a new Rome TW game:

1. Detailed resource stewardship and trade
2. More...

I was under the impression that the "beta" 3.1 _is_ the final release. Is that not a fair take? Are there serious issues remaining?

Ahhh, now that does seem like it might work. I think the version of those directions I read previously didn't include step "5." ;)

It is pretty clear that the reason Roma Surrectum doesn't work is...

I think I was in error about me "not using" the script. I must have been turning it on all along and didn't even realize it! :laughter:

Not entirely sure what happened when my efforts to "enable"...

Heh, couple days away and I see this thread has been going strong :)

I am no theologian, but as far as I know, all the major world religions include many hundreds if not thousands of pages of...

Ah sorry I didn't clarify. I have now purchased the game four times myself:
1. Original purchase from Gamersgate (which worked back then, but then I updated it to a Steam key before I realized there...

Did you ever get your stuff to work huntermmm135?

My experience was that I had to get a non-Steam copy of the game to get Roma Surrectum to work. I suspect that Valve changed some things in the Steam version relatively recently (more recently than...

As a matter of fact, I have played hundreds of turns as Macedon and scores as Rome (both zero turn) and never did any such "script activation," and also saw very few CTDs. Those rare instances where...

In truth, no religion is worth any minority of violent offenders it enables, and a thoroughly humanist perspective makes it impossible to avert this point; NO RELIGION is worth ANY KILLING, and if...

And the benefit of that is?

so uh . . . enable the script . . . is this like a euphemism for "saving often?"

Hmm, what do you mean by "weaken," or "cheapen" or "damage?" I'm not immediately clear on how any of those verbs applies to a "language."

I suppose in a context where a minority language or...

Re: Saul's points: you make great points brother.

Of course, there is "no such thing as cheating in a singleplayer game." In my experience, doing things which would be "cheating" in a multiplayer...

This last page or so of dialogue is, I think representative of the state of the discussion globally.

How many more spree-killings, how many more enslaved wives, how many more genitals mutilated,...

Given your apparent depth of knowledge concerning the politico-religious movement known as Islam, you must certainly be aware that it is not so simple, and that many Muslim scholars, and both the de...

Use spies and cheap fast units to sack his cities . . . not sure about the AI in vanilla Rome 2, I play RomeTW with Roma Surrectum mod.

In my experience, if the computer opponent has been in a...

Can any Muslim anywhere on Earth convert to secularism (or some other religion) without fear or concern?

Donald Trump's garbled elocution gave me Stage 5 thyroid cancer.

Hecque! The rulers don't even need the approval of their own people, much less anyone else! :tongue:

One thing I find frustrating with Total War game mechanics are the "hard caps" on army sizes, as well as the unrealistic scales of armies. Battles of 3500 vs 2000 are "fairly large" in this game, but...

Good points!

And yet still . . . it is almost paradoxical that there are any "Western expat vloggers" in the first place! One channel I watch sporadically is ADVChina, and I have to say, a LOT of...

That is a interesting army composition Ovidius. What sort of formation do you use? With so few pikes, how do they even have any use against cavalry? Don't the cavalry just run from them and attack...

Yeah I luckily managed to find a "non-Steam version myself." Had to buy the damn anthology three times (or is it four!?) but yeah, finally got Roma Surrectum 3.1 working, which is quite simply THE...

Yes I have had close working relationships with a half-dozen Chinese nationals working in or studying in North America. I agree with you, but I'm not sure that our samples are representative. Rather,...

Can units in phalanx formation "charge" in phalanx formation? In my experience, if a unit is in phalanx and there is an enemy in front of them bumping into their pikes, it doesn't do much to the...

Thank you Saul! I will print out your response and walk through my setup with it in hand :)

Posting here to see if anyone can offer any suggestions, beyond those in the various links and points made already (or to highlight one of those points I might have overlooked).

I have a fairly...

Okay, not 100% sure this is a fix, but give it a try.

The non-Steam version of this directory has six files, all of which start with "mss."...

Ah cool. I will check Aero, and Nvidia and any other background apps that might be running and interfering. BTW great to see you Dvk! I have finished a few semesters of IT training at a local...

Let me see if I can pin down exactly what is incompatible by comparing the Steam and non-Steam game assets with WinMerge.

Hopefully, I can pin down a very small change that is easy for anyone to...

I have had similar issues. Initially, it would happen with vanilla RTW. I changed the screen res to reflect what I keep my desktop at (1920x1080 IIRC) and that seemed to reduce it, if not fix it;...

What the heck is "enable the script??"

This is just about the only thread I can find which discusses "Macedonian Thorakitai," and other things so I figured I'd raise it from the dead and use it to ask my question:

Is there a list...

I'll assume I've got what I consider an "ideal" early polybian Roman army (roughly). 1 General, 2 Equite, 4 archers, 2 velites (skirmishers), 3 triarii, 8 hastati or principe (I play with Roma...

On the contrary! "Presidential temperament" is precisely what the United States needs to rid itself. Death to the establishments. Make America Great Again!

Oh sure, I can appreciate true...

Ah sweet; sounds like a good one.

Still, sad to realize there is nothing like a "Alex Expanded" type mod. I did find one called "Uber Alex3" but it doesn't seem to have any presence here, and all...

So you agree it is a police state! :)

I have tremendous respect and empathy for the vast majority of people who are Chinese.

I have nothing but contempt and ill-wishes for the rulers of China....

So, the end, though not the epilogue: I FINALLY got Roma Surrectum 2.5 to work! :tongue:

Halleluyah!

What I have learned: the disparity between the Steam version of the game and the non-Steam...
