FINAL MOD

I SUGGEST http://www.7-zip.org/ FOR UNZIP

for any questions/support please feel free to e-mail me at: petrovicvladan9@gmail.com
Run EAEM.lnk to launch - ADJUST THE TARGET LINE BEFORE LAUNCH

How to adjust the target line of your EB.exe - In Our Case EAEM.ink
>Go to EB shortcut - left clck on the shortcut and chose properties - then - change the Target by copy-paste method


"<drive letter>:\<directory path you've installed RTW into>\RomeTW-ALX.exe" -mod:eb -show_err -nm -noalexander
"...\Rome - Total War\RomeTW-ALX.exe" -mod:eb -show_err -nm -noalexander


I have been fan and developer of RTW since the start, this will be my final major update, anything after this would be tweaks.


Mods adjustment go far beyond any other.

STEAM INSTALATION:

1. Unpack the zip
2. Go to your local install folder for the RTW Alexander Steam game - if you're not sure where this is then open Steam, go to Library, right-click Rome: Total War - Alexander, go to Properties > Local Files tab > Browse Local Files
3. Backup the contents of this folder, just in case
4. Select all of the files from the unpacked zip, and copy into the RTW-Alexander steam install folder, overwriting those currently there
5. Go back into Steam, Library, right-click Rome: Total War - Alexander, go to Properties > General tab > Set Launch options
6. Copy the following into the box: -mod:eb -show_err -nm -noalexander and click OK

Play game as normal!

ENJOY!

so... anyone teased yet?

This looks very interesting.

I don't actually have Alexander: Total War - this might just persuade me to buy it.

I'll let a few others post their experiences first though.

Does the AI handle sea raids better with Alexander?

You should follow the thread in my signature.. There are impresions

[maksimus]

Does the AI handle sea raids better with Alexander?

Not sure, I think that sea raids are complete disaster on RTW/BI/ALEX I had some that were much better (ones that had abot 9 units sieging Rome) but the point goes beyond - ALEX.exe engine ''Retrains'' troops, always groups armies - that lead to less but bigger battles and battle AI on Alex is the best..

The retraining feature does not exist in RTW or BI engine - that is - that feature is disabled just so human player could win more.. In Alex it is on, and, Alexander is really made as a finall mark before MTWII and mostly for veteran players so to some point it is too hard

But for EB 1.1 there will be a mod and optional *txt files that would make Alex engine on EB 1.1 playable for all fans and gamers .)

[Skillets]

Sounds awesome. Any idea when 1.1 will be released?

[maksimus]

note: I did not say this (but I think it will be over by new year)

[chenkai11]

Will EB1.1 have those features you mentioned above, and I will just simply install Alexander and play with the Alex.EXE shortcut?

[maksimus]

Yes. EB 1.1 on Alex.exe will have the same features as EB 1 .. And if you follow instructions, you will have no prob's (but the main post will be edited after 1.1.)

[maksimus]

note: this link contain's Alexander EB member's discussion's as well as gamer's suggestion's that follow preparation's for EB 1.1 mod that will be RTW or BI exe compatible

And - yes Alex engine support's more extensive add-ins in ''desecr_models_battle.txt''

[maksimus]

I have updated the main post!

[chenkai11]

Hey Maksimus, I tried ALX.EXE, I noticed the when I left the town or city without governor, the unit with casualties will automatic retrain even I uncheck the recruitment. Never happen with RTW or BI. So it means AI will do the same? with or without governor in the settlement? That's the only difference I notice with ALX.EXE. Not sure if AI is better in battle coz I am using darthformation.

And the night battle is not available with saved game or new campaign game.

[No, I **** my pants!]

looks great, but do the units and factions change though, I love the current idea.

AI retrains unit's even on Medium and Easy difficulty settings. And yes, sorry, but night_battles are not save-game compatible because the desc_start.txt that enables bi_options needs to be loaded at the start.. In new game it work's fine

And yes, We In the EB ALEX team are supporting Darth that will be a part of the ALEX EB mod for EB 1.1

But I tried a new campaign game with romani and I besiege a town, the rebels attack me during the AI turn, there is no night battle at the bottom. I mean even if the general don't have night battle traits there should be the option display of night battle, you just cannot click it. Or was it because I am attacking only with captain?

Only Named Character's can fight at night - and you have the option of manually adding the '' NightBattleCapable 1'' in ''descr_start.txt'', unless you are really good in the battle field and gain a general with nice trait's that would enable you to click that ''box''

[gaius valerius]

kinda sucks not to have alexander expansion now...

[chenkai11]

Is it ALX.EXE or just my diplomat?

Seleukid is still strong to give that kind of proposal. They have 2 full stack at my borders.

I conquered that town few turns before, then I ask to give me tribute or I will attack again, they propose with ceasefire with lesser tribute, so I ask again for a single payment of 10000mnai and they said ok if give back that settlement, I accepted. After few turns I attack again the settlement, during the siege I ask for money, they said they can only propose ceasefire then I ask for that town and this is their proposal.

campaign difficulty: VH
