Hello, thanks for the mod. I have a question, is there any other way to play these factions? Im in 1760, with spain in my grand campaing, and i've already finished my objetives, spawned a victory window, but nothing happens, and none faction has unlocked. I have to play till 1799? or it won't unlock any unit at all? thx

[Norrmannen]

Well, i will try this. Btw, do this fix run good in MP?
Please, any1 here with GC all factions mod yet?

[Godless Pickle]

EDIT: never mind I figured it out. Thanks alot for patch

[AustralianEmpire]

Ive tried replacing the patch.pack with the modded file but when I try to start the game again it says that Empire has encountered a problem. Can anyone help because I dont know what to do.

[Iron Juggernaut]

Future note to the OP: the next time you upload a file, you'd best upload a readme with the file or post one with your release message, because otherwise, you get a lot of confusion over how to install your mod.

yeah one question why doe patch.pack not open?
Do i just delete the patch and have the new one you gave?

[shindigero]

someone said about using an unpacker, if this is the answer can someone please show us where to find a free file unpacker.

if not, like many people i have simply downloaded the file. I have then removed patch.pack from the data folder and replaced it with patch.7z, when i start empire it says that empire has to close, this happens whilst the copyright screen is up, ANY IDEAS?

For everyone who is doing what i did go to that website download the program and you can use it to extract patch.7z, it finally worked for me

[wilkini]

Now what do i do?
delete patch.pack????

Has someone got an answer to my problem?

[Greek God 117]

I need some help getting the factions. Its too confusing. Here is what I already did.

1.Download the file.
2.Extract.
3.Backup the original patch.pack and then replace with this one.

Please help.

[MrThib]

make sure you move the backup of your patch to another directory, that should fix it

Anyone mind upping this megaupload or rapidshare? Filefront is crap.

Questions is any american indian faction unlocked

[Robertclive]

yeah I want american indian

[Being Earnest]

Here is a working version packed in mod format.
I don't know about "American Indians," but Native American factions are unlocked.

Caveat: Some other factions are pushed off the drop-down menu where you choose a faction, because there are too many.
Workaround: Just use the pack manager on the mod pack to delete lines of factions that you are not interested in.

Unzip to your "../Empire Total War/data" directory, then use mod manager or follow directions at the end of this post to find out how to add the mod to your user.empire_script.txt.

Cheers.

[ToonTotalWar]

Shame, united states are not in mod. no worries just add them in myself now
good mod mate

[Vega27]

can anyone please add native american nations in a patch.pack i dont care if they only have 1 unit!!! PLEASE MODDERS!!! thank youuu

Ive found that this patch.pack mod causes some problems:

1) It seems to create a bug where folks in the pregame lobby can not see some of the other participants - so for instance, in a 4v4 game it may look to some as if their team only as 3/4 when its really 4v4. The 'missing' players chat appears but you cant see their flag and name.

2) When someone with the mod changes their faction in the pre-game lobby it will boot others from the lobby.


Ive only encountered these problems when I had the patch.pack installed or when other who have it join games. Does anyone else have these issues and is there a fix in the works? Are there any other mods out there that will open up factions for MP?

- Cheers

PS - when the hell is CA going to get off their collective rears and just officially open up more factions for MP and campaign?!?
