i vote for a merge between Darth and Lordz if possible

I think Darth's AI depends on stat and other non-AI changes and can't be unpackaged from the rest of his mod

It is a truly impressive mod.
++rep
I might ask however why the UK starts with 12500. That does make it possible to capture batavia, grab all the trade nodes(in the Atlantic except Portugal's), destroy the Fr. and SP. fleets (in the Atlantic) and secure all ports, raid all enemy ports (Atlantic and channel), secure the strait of gibraltar and gibraltar itself within months. Nonetheless, it is is a truly great accomplishment.(Granted one can use 'house rules to prevent UK from getting up near 19000 with trade and tech deals.)

I also very much enjoy the battles, particularly the practice battles. Do wish for more smoke though.

A great effort!
thanks

hello gents, here we are, I'm back from my little vacation time and I'm starting modding back NTW3 campaign. Next steps are to fix the AI armies recruitment system and icons. I keep also looking for a fix for the ''trianlge of crash'', the 3 towns that clicked the first turn make the game crash. After this I hope everyone will enjoy this mod.

PS

I still be alone modding the sp, and I remember most of you that a year ago the campaign was not compatible with ntw3 and if you was trying to launch you had crashes. After that a lot of job have been done and now, after the basic game fixes and adaptations with mp mod system, now we start improving campaigns. Let's see what I will be able to do, and remember that my job is possible only because I have a great testers team that tries patiently all my modifications. Thanks them before the undersigned

Ok so we start the campaign, playing as North Italy and Papal States. Everything is fine. But when we enter a battle it crashes, the first time it desynced, second time I entered and was waiting, and he entered and was waiting and we couldn't even hit Menu or escape so we alt tabbed and ended it. Third time mine loaded and was waiting and his crashed while loading into battle.

Is there some obvious thing we're missing here? Or just a bug? I was host and entering battle as reinforcements. Graphics on low, unit size on low. LAN connection. We can do the turnbased part just fine with no issues.

I also had problems with the LAN connection when playing MP Campaign game Battles a while back. We had better results linking up over the internet (thru Steam) with one of us hosting a campaign game. Both players need a GOOD internet connection as the campaign game is more demanding perhaps due to the very large campaign map.

Maybe already noted but in my game (campaign with Spain), soldiers are mute in battle and most of the mod's units lack their icon and description image, instead, they have a 'placeholder' from Empire.

Appart from the bugs and things that need to be patched, the mod is amazing and I love it. Keep on guys, you're doing a superb work!

Edit: BTW, do you have any ETA for the next patch? No pressure at all, just curious

As noted in the post at the beginning of this thread, the known problems & suggestions were included in a separate thread on this forum NTW3 v2 Campaign game update for players. Thanks for the input and compliments, we are currently working on the ETW issue and other game play problems and hope to resolve these and other issues in the near future

TRK "Do wish for more smoke though". More smoke is achieved going 'High' Particle effects to 'Ultra' particle effects. Volumetric Effects for weather fog etc.
