Mini Mod

[Narveid]

I just made my own minimod, but I am quite new at RTW modding, so its nothing big.

-Added infantry generals to a lot of factions (they are a lil bit OP)
-Added a lot of new zones to the original map (you'll notice this one quickly)
-Some character traits and ancillaries
-Some new buildings (buildings for every merc in the game except elephants, so they got a "home" where you can retrain them)
-Some few units (one which failed horribly *cough* thracian general *cough*)
-Night battle to normal RTW (I think you need RTW Gold for this one, I might be mistaken)
-New Victory Conditions for all factions
-New maps (subpar, but they were done quite quickly, so not much effort put into them)

I've set it up for its own mod map, so all you need to is to make a new folder called EC (this is my working name for the minimod) in the RTW folder, copy paste your data into it, then add my files to the RTW folder. They should automatically add themselves into the EC folder. Use a modswitch, by adding "-mod:EC" either to the launching settings of Steam, or to RTW.exe file if you are not.

Started download will gaive my oppinion about it soon .

[Narveid]

Thanks mate, appreciated. Hopefully I forgot to put in all the files, so its working as intended.

[Narveid]

Hopefully I DIDN'T forgot to put in all the files** <.<

[Narveid]

.... forget* .... Its far too early in the morning for this, forget I said anything.

[Hannibal Baca]

When my conection get normal i will rate your work.

[Narveid]

Updated the files, was a small error in one of the character traits.

[Narveid]

The problem was in one of the new temples I put into the game. I made a temple to Hades (for the macedons), and in that temple there was a "revent to the dead" and "irreverent to the dead", and copying the first one when I made the second one, I forgot to change the antitrait. Having itself as an antitrait wasn't correct, so its fixed now.

Make some noticable changes it looks like vanila use some skins it will help ya.

[Narveid]

To make it look like Vanilla was intentional. I wanted something light, that didn't change the game massively

[Narveid]

Not to mention that me and graphics is a horrible mix, so I would have to have a graphics artist for that. And for now, I just wanted something light I could work and practice on myself, not a big project!

[Hannibal Baca]

You only added more general units,that can't be considered as mod.
Sorry mate ,you need to change more things in order to make a good mod.
There are skins in download section,use some of them it will be more cooler.

[Narveid]

That is the whole reason I called it a mini mod though, its not a proper mod with lots of new units, nor was that ever the goal. It was just to add small things to Vanilla, as some personal practice. To say I only added new general units is not correct though, because there is other things added, they are just not units. But like I said, its a mini mod, not a big one like many of those around. I might join one of those, but this was just a small personal project.

[Hannibal Baca]

Ok sorry if being harsh.
Hope you will learn much ,and that your work will be rimembered.

Best Luck Mate

Na, its all right. This won't be remembered, but its a start! And thanks, I appreciate it ^_^

[Hannibal Baca]

I meant on you futher modding projects.

[Narveid]

Hahaha, I know I know, thank you. Not sure what happens next, but we'll see

[Narveid]

First time I tried it myself since I put this out. Apparently I was wrong about copying whole Data folder first. Just Extract the EC folder from inside my .zip, right into the RTW. Then merely use the command line -mod:EC, and you should be ready to go. Sorry, my bad. (Advice, use "-mod:EC -show_err", gives you an error message and says whats wrong if something goes wrong, very handy!)
