hello, the Version 5.5.19 is invalid or something...is it because of my computer or not i don't know....

plz help! I want to play this game!


also,the download page for the alternalte site is missing...(or the whole thing is missing...)

[Gaul]

Yes, came to say the official site is a bit frigged.

[A31kiwi]

Yeah sorry about that, I've had trouble updating the site but I think its all sorted out.

It should be back up soon.

[GreekGlory]

yeah i tried it like 5 times and its still not working

yeah i tried it like 5 times and its still not working

Its up now - I'm still trying to nail down the problem that occurs while updating site.

[Zarax]

The download at www.wmwiki.com/hosted/xgm should be working though

[GreekGlory]

its working now i just got a good download

[DimeBagHo]

XGM version 5.6.2 is now available for download.

You can get it here.
You can see the readme here.

The major changes are:

-Converted Carthage Rebels to Eastern Kingdoms
-Revised AI starting conditions

[chazap]

yay!!! i've been waiting for this!!!

DBH: given that you have made extensive strides on your mod, What version do you like playing? XGM, XGM w/BI, or XGM w/Ale ??? just really curious...:hmmm:

[DimeBagHo]

I've been playing with the Alex exe and I like it a lot so far. I do miss having shieldwall and hordes, but the improved AI and lack of bugs make it worthwhile.

I've also been playing with loyalty off. It's a nice feature, but the settlement capture bug is a real pain - it always seems to hit after the most epic battles. Until the civil war scripts get done I just don't think it's worth the hassle.

how do i uninstall the previous xgm? just delete the folder?

EDIT: and why does it say 5.5.19 when i try to download?

I usually just install right on top of the old one, haven't had a problem yet.

I take it this will not work with versions 5.5.x? Thanks for the prompt release!

[Balikedes]

Hey DBH, I just downloaded the 5.6.2 update but it downloaded with the title 5.5.19, just like Mediteran.
Will install anyway .

[DimeBagHo]

The link should be good now.

Mediteran: Any previous version is deleted automatically when you run the installer.

Cymera: I wouldn't recommend using saves from any version before 5.6.0 (even if they work at first they are likely to be unstable).

[Mediteran]

yeah its working now, downloading

[CaesarVincens]

DBH,
I was wondering whether you are going to include Suppanut's ethnic traits in 5.6.x. I think it could add a lot to XGM.

I could help if you like; I can edit most text files. I already edited my 5.6.1 to have the correct traits for most starting family members.

[Scutarii]

Adding Suppanuts ethnic traits would be great, its adds so much to the game. Its like RTR's hereditary traits and such, they improve family trees by a boatload.

Congratulations to Dimebagho! two silver and a bronze medal from the TWC awards...

[chazap]

yes!!! congratulations DBH!!!

okay, is it me??? or a lot of the questions that used to be posted here for discussion are now being posted in numerous single threads????:hmmm:

Can someone confirm if an assasin of your own faction could always kill a spy from your own faction? or is this new, as i have just discovered by offing 2 of my spies i had in enemy cities...can a family member be killed off?

Also, i remember in vanilla that sometimes after a great battle there used to be " A man of the hour" were a regular soldier would be promoted to captain...why was this feature taken away???
