IB2 Britanniae III Mod Discussion

[Merula]

There are a few trait attributes required also.
Trait VictorRomanVirtue >= 3
Im looking to make some of the common ancillaries transferable so you will be able to discard and obtain certain new or better ancillaries...Dont worry about the questions..keep them coming

Good to know
Would that trait "VictorRomanVirtue >=3" be 'British Isles Hero' or is it another which i have yet to get?
Andd you did not answer my other quetion though, does he have to be in the Capital?

Thanks

For the more Roman Titles for High kings or the Amherawddyr
That would be: VictorRomanVirtue >=3 Trait: Conqueror

For the Romano British such as Arthur Arth Ru
VictorOthersVirtue >=3 Trait: Conquering_Hero

-I'm not positive if your leader has to be there in the capital... I'll test

Thanks a bunch, yes Ambrosius has the Conqueror trait, i will see if he gets to be Rio.
I can test it for you if you like, moving him to the capital i mean
How will i know when he is Arthur? Is it a trait, ancillary or epithet?
Thanks

I would like to say that this mod sounds, looks and plays awesome so far. I am enjoying it alot.

A few cons however (very minor) that i would like to point out just in case they havent already been noted:

-The Catuvellaun Kingdom's campaign map banner is either too bright or the color differentiation between the banner and the symbol is not enough, it is impossible for me to see the Chi Rho on the banner. also it is imposible to tell how full the stacks are because again the colors are too similar. i would hate to attack a stack thinking it is small and realize im up against a whole army

-certain factions have Muslim voices

-certain factions have no battlefield banners, nor unit card pictures, only place holder peasant dude...

looking forward to the next update, download, installment, etc... keep up the good work, i really like the skins especially and some of the music is fantastic.

oh and one question: i was hoping to add some more music to the files, but it appears that the descr_sounds_music file is nowhere to be seen. where can i find it? i found the actual music folder by extraction.

Muslim voices? What factions? I think only the Thuringians have the accent. They are from the Mongol faction

-I think I got all the unit cards now in place with the new installer patch

[Black_Nebula]

One thing I have noticed, having tried most of the factions, is that they become vasels very easily. The fist sign of trouble and they roll over and submit.
One question, are there only certain settlements that can become cities?

[Pope Gregorius I]

Thanks Pope Gregorius I

oh well yes it is only them, you are right.

if the installer patch is Part 4, then no it appears as if they are not all there. im sorry i should clarify, when i say unit card i mean its second meaning of the picture on the little cards in the recruitment menu and in the army menu. the big unit info cards i think all have proper images.

any word on the music?

-For adding your own music just extract the the music idx and music dat files add and repack

right but to add music you still have to edit the descr_sounds_music text document...which i can not find at all.

The game has a mixture of the Teutonic and Britannia campaign music files thus the issue with trying to edit the text files first. The only thing thats possible to do is to extract the the music idx and music dat files, add your music and then repack

[Alkimachos]

How can you repack the files? xidx file?

EDIT:

Here, i've changed a little the interface:

The work y'all have done on this mod is impressive! I love it a lot - glad to see new icons for the buildings, too. Custom battles helped me get a feel for some of the factions, and personally I enjoy the Dal Raidans and the Picts the best. Thanks for the hard work on the mod!

Awesome mod! But is it just me or is the Teulu a bit overpowered? 4 units of dugude could only kill 10 out of 66 teulu bodyguards.. the charge killed 300 of my dugude-units and then the 100 in the remaining unit only managed to kill 5-6 of them

Sounds a bit skewed. Did you use a shied wall?

After they are extracted within your sounds folder you will now see a music folder. Change the music within it accordingly. then deleted your idx and dat music files. load up the game and the idx and dat files will regenerate. The new music will therefor be within the music dat and indix file and playing the tunes with your uploaded game. With Vista they are regenerated in ''compatible'', virtual folder so you will eventually need to manually take them out of that folder and place them in your mods sounds folder
