Custom/Historical Battles + new units submod

[smatussek1]

v.2
new additions:
Historical Battles:
- Battle of Döffingen


Units:
Early:
-Dismounted Mailed Knights
-"Eary German Infantry" just becomes "Early Infantry" (now available
for Denmark, Sweden, England and France + new skin)
-new "German Huscarls"
High:
-Light Men at Arms
-Dismounted Noble Knights now available for the HRE factons (just because I think they're a really cool unit and I like diversity in my armies)

Campaign:
added my units to the campaign.

Custom Battle Maps:

-Baltic Plains (Russia)
-Norse Wilderness (Sweden)
-Normandy (France)
-Cornish Hills (England)
-Lowland Hills (Scotland)
-Rocky Desert (Palestine)
-Portuguese Border
-Pyranese Mountains (Spain)
-Greek Island
-Tuscany (Italy)
-Sicilian Hills (Italy)
-Georgian Steppe
-Arno River (Italy)

This is probably the last i will be adding. Probably wont find the time to add anything and I think its already fine the way it is. Theres not really much more I could add to dHRR, the best m2tw mod there is.

Installation: Download the RAR file and extract and replace the "data" file with the one in your Medieval II Total War/mods/HRR_07/ folder. Make sure you back up anything in there you want to keep.

thanks

First of all HRR is great, i never wrote on the subforum but i really like this modification, the only thing missing(but it isn't really so important) in HRR for me were coustume battles and this submod seems to be the solution...the only problem is that it doesn't work(for me), i have always a CTD when i try to do a costum battle or an historical battle. I already downloaded it 2 times and i reinstalled HRR on a clean copy of Kingdoms 1.5...i need help...

[smatussek1]

sorry for replying so very late, but i have been having problems with my internet connection, so havent been able to check this thread. Your problem seems odd, im afraid im not sure why thats happening. Are you sure you replaced the data folder not just integrated it. Also make sure that when you right-click on the shortcut and press properties, in the "target" box after:""D:\Medieval II Total War\mods\HRR_07\medieval2_HRR_07.bat""(or wherever your mod is located) it should say: "--io.file_first". Again im not really sure if this is the cause, but just try this.

quick question

why is this sub-mod bigger (as in mb's) than the mod itself?

[Dimitri_Harkov]

probably because winrar's compression rate is not as good as the one of the clickteam installer.

[Giovi]

i have waited a lot for a submod like this more screen are coming i hope soon

[mattgonzo]

IMPRESSIVE!!!very nice work man +rep

could you upload this to upit or sth? 2shared is so slow-.-

smatussek1 could you pls upload this at a faster hoster?or upload it at strategyinformer.com(very fast download speed there)
it would take me about 20 hours to download it at 2shared....
hope you'll do that

hello and sorry to everyone I havent replied to yet. I just wanted to appologize to everyone who had the impression that i was planning to put alot of time into this mod and thread. The reason why I uploaded this was because on another thread where people were writing about personal modifications they had made of the dHRR mod, I mentioned that i had done my own modifications (those above) and asked if anyone wanted me to upload it. So i did by popular demand. Now you might be wondering why it is such a big task just to answer a few questions. Well it isnt, the thing is I am really busy in my final year of high school trying to get good grades to meet my requirements for college, so I just tend to forget to check in if anyone posted something on the thread. (Is there anyway one can get email notifications on this site?). I will try to remember to check in once in a while and im really sorry if i left anyone waiting too long.

To your questions:

Templar Knight, the sub-mod is bigger because I havent made an .exe installer I just took the data folder with all the stuff I added and compressed it and uploaded it. (To be honest I just dont know how to make .exe installers)

Giovi, I might upload some screenshots. Ill try to remember to upload them soon.

mattgonzo, thanks, glad you like it. I just had a look at strategyinformer.com and idk the signup page just isnt loading, ill have a look at it tommorow.

btw over the winter break, where i did have some free time, I made a few additions and changes to my historical battles mostly adding historical and geographical accuracy, added a few more units, added some more custom battle locations outside of germany, and made some changes to the campaign. Once again if anyone wants me to upload that, let me know.

[mattgonzo]

man i would really appreciate that....maybe you could upload it at moddb.com...just if strategyinformer doesn't work....

(sorry mattgonzo, strategyinformer wont let me upload anything larger than 500 MB, I wish I knew a more practical way of doing this)

[Dimitri_Harkov]

Nice stuff!

[smatussek1]

thanks dimitri.

fortunatly I just discovered the clickteam install creator, so I uploaded it as an exe file which is just 654 MB which might download faster:

[kaos-E]

who can upload that link again ???? pls exe. version

[Zaccard]

Tried to DL this mod, but the link dosnt work.
Plz smatussek give us a working link, ur mod, i would realy love to have this.

[konny]

NB: This mod will most likely not work with dHRR 0.8a. But when anyone tells me how to enable custom battles we'll make them available in a future version, and may be also add historical battles such as those of the Controversy Wars.

Plz smatussek give us a working link, ur mod, i would realy love to have this.

Im terribly sorry for not replying I havent been on this site a while, and I assumed there was no more interest in this submod. I have been looking for the exe file on my pc, but I cant seem to find it... I will continue to look for it and Ill upload it as soon as I find it. sorry again.

[Praetorian1]
