Mods of a Modern Age

**Godless Pickle** · September 01, 2008, 05:19 PM

For a while i ve been looking for a good, solid modern age mod for rome TW. Yes, there are Napoleonic ones, but im looking for world war 1, 2, or even Korea or Nam! I think it would be great to have a total war scale battle with tanks and rifle men (excluding aircraft) and all sorts of modern weapons. doesnt have to have great grafics, just the feelings of a good game. can someone help me out? thanks.

Sorry, there are no mods liek that for RTW. Empire will have a few gun mods though!

Yeah a few mod teams have tried to create a modern mod (even Star Wars TW), but they all failed. There is a half-baked Star Wars mod out though, really poor quality IMO. The RTW engine just isn't built to handle a modern mod.

Moving to General modding discussion and resources.

More like two to three years. Modders are going to have to learn a new engine to mod E:TW, and there is a lot more files to edit undoubtedly, along with finding which files do what, and being able to edit all of the files and extract them, assuming CA doesn't, as usual, provide any useful converters. Add on to that all the work that just generally needs doing for a good mod, and you won't see a total conversion modern mod until Late 2010-Early 2011 at the soonest.

Cheers,
Augustus

If only someone would make a game set in WW I or II, they'd make a fortune.

lets just hope. i dont think it would be really hard, like lucifer said, once modders now the engine. i think it would be really neat if it was done good.

(that was really bad grammar)
