RTRPE 1.9 Custom mod v.11

[Emperor Domitianus]

I think I will repair this mod. It seems not to work. Anyone got it to work fine?
If yes, how?

[Emperor Domitianus]

Still no one answer?

[Sunjah Kahn]

I believe I have it working. I went in and got menus and set up options, but have not played yet.

I think the problem is that this mod was made for the Platinum of Rome: Total Realism which modified the original Rome: Total War. Since, the Platinum Edition which installs in a seperate folder was made. I think the two are compatible, you just have to put everything in the Rome - Total War\RTRPE\Data file, NOT the Rome - Total War\Data file. That is how I am proceeding and it seems to work so far.

Only thing holding me up is that I want upkeep costs, but it seems the only way is to take the file and manually put them in. I guess I will do that next, I don't want to start and then change things.

Up until now, though, it works. I get menus from the regular game's shortcut, and from the shortcut to the mod. Both are different, and that's as far as I got.

I'll let you know. Man I hate editing that whole dang file!

[Sunjah Kahn]

Ah-ha! Made a discovery. I believe this has all the costs intact for upkeep. I looked at the first several and they were 0, but they are generals and as I went further the rest look correct.

Excellent, as I was not going to enjoy going line by line and replacing the unit upkeep cost. I'll let you know how playing goes after tomorrow, must get sleep for a while. I will test some tomorrow.

Here is the link to the vanilla RTRPE 1.9 original export_desc_unit.txt

I really love the description of this mod. Anyone have any useful guide to make this mod dream comes true?

[keijishin]

Hi,

Having a lot of trouble downloading anything from Filefront.com - keeps accusing me of multiple downloads which I'm not doing. And so can't download Custom mod v.13. If any of you guys could upload to an alternative site or provide an alternative link would be much appreciated.

Thank you.

i am having the same problem with this..
can anyone hav it uploaded somewher so we can d/l from?

[Emperor Domitianus]

It seems the mod is somehow....dead.

[Tronnicus20]

When I patched this, I copied the data folder and placed it in my Rome Total War folder, clicked yes to all for overwrite. When i played RTR after, none of the models showed up, the version still reads as 1.5

[lelouchx99]

i don't think it's working anymore case closed

[CAESAR AVGVSTVS]

props to peterofnj

[alchemist_alien]

I have a question. How, when or where I can build a legionary, pretorian or equites alares? I've played a Julii and I can build only basic units. Is it a special area for this elite units? I've already built imperial palace and still don't have marius reform.

[verenuspulo]

Hi,i liked very the mod RTRPE 1.9 Custom mod v.13 Final,but then come "winter,157" it stop and back for desktop...
The shifts are taking much more than normal for them to pass.
Someone could help me please?
Thanks

[Mathais]

@Tronnicus20 You have to put in the RTR folder for it to work.

@alchemist_alien You have to have more than just the palace in order for the Marius Reform.

@verenuspulo I will see what I can do am playing as the senate right now and have had that happen though try looking in the tech help section I now others have had the same problem it may take some time but it there.

[zepfan81]

I've been playing RTR for a while, but over the weekend I got bored with it and decided to try some other mods. I had issues with all of them either graphically or the gameplay. I found this by accident and it's almost perfect! Can't wait for RTR VII

[Fubar2k5]

Can anyone upload a version containing just the macedonian textures and no rebalancing?

[Gaul]

I hope they rebalanced Italian Cavalry - mine are always wiped out in one minute.


But hey, thanks now I can play a full campaign, worried free!

[Gaul]

This might resolve the hardcoded 66-65 BC Roman CTD issue.

So Rome (Julii) is the CTD culprate? Carthage, GCS doesn't have a CTD in regular RTRPE?

[Gaul]

I keep getting the reply data/RTR/models_strat/shared_barb_strat_general.cas (file does not exist) and then an abort. I'm playing as the Julii.


EDIT Nevermind - I found a link in the first tread.

[Gaul]

Now it's saying something about aor Indian spearman.....

EDIT is this really how you wanted the romans_senate to look? (Little money, small population?)

 
faction romans_senate, comfortable napoleon
denari 1000
settlement
{
level city
region Latium
year_founded 0
population 100
plan_set default_set
faction_creator romans_julii
building
{
type core_building governors_house
}
building
{
type port_buildings port
}
building
{
type hinterland_town_square town_square
}
}
settlement
{
level large_town
region Etruria

plan_set default_set
faction_creator romans_julii
building
{

}
building
{

}
}

EDIT EDIT I just removed the aor indian spearman, replaced them with elephants and infantry, in the descr_strat.txt

[Gaul]

Can anyone help fix this?
