Amazon: Total War 7.0 Release

[bibi g]

So if Rome 2 are moddable, are you gonna release it on Rome 2 only or both on Rome 2 and M2tw?

That is a Parthian Shot question, and she is somewhere 33,000 feet up.

Slow weekend at ModDB, I guess.

You can also download it from the backup site.

Jenn just emailed that she has finished the clean up of unused files, she says saving is about 7MB.

[bibi g]

Yes, the change is already in the 7.0E.8.7z file, currently on ModDB server.

Hate to do this three times in 24 hours, but various team members checked in their updates in different time.

Including critical bug fixes, so here we go once more...

A new mod file with modDB ID of AmazonsTW-Recalesced_70E.9.7z has been uploaded to ModDB.

Changes including:

. critical fix for missing Amazon Round Shield Cavalry texture file
. new Amazon Billwomen units for Amazonia, Libya, and Thyssa
. new Amazon Round Shield infantry textures.
. file scan deletion of unused files yielding saving of 7.4MB by removing over 60 files.
This is critical per Parthian Shot, because the Strategy Informer has problem with mod file when size is encroaching on their upper ceiling.

[bibi g]

A new update was sent to the download server which combined multiple error reports and fixes over Sunday.

- Celestial Buddy Shuttle reported and fixed incorrect text for Amazon Spetum unit (aka Amazon Round Shields)
- Jenn corrected foot modeling to make the feet look more natural for two sample units
Amazon Heavy Peltast
Amazon Xiphos Cohort
- Erika corrected weapon gears for
Amazon Round Shield Units

Upload is completed and available on ModDB

[bibi g]

The 7.0D download page was accidentally deleted because the ModDB has a new restriction on file name to be 25 characters or less.

The download record showing 8,916 downloads was lost.

Parthian Shot has requested this mod file to be restored. So it is back now on ModDB
http://www.moddb.com/mods/amazons-to...ced-70d-wpatch

[bibi g]

This is to announce another 7.0E upload in progress

Changes are

1. Per Parthian Shot's specification, Thyssa and Rebel's militia axes units are redundant as both amazon peltast and heavy peltast uses axes. So the militia unit is now removed from 7.0E, this change affects
- Thyssa
- Rebel
2. New Militia cavalry units using high poly count models, this affects
- Libya
- Thermoden Amazonia
- Thyssa
- Geothe
- Rebel
3. New remodeled militia archers, this affects
- Geothe Amazon
- Thermoden Amazonia
- Thyssa Amazon
- Libyan Amazon

A major integration problem was discovered and resolved at 3:00pm EST, the mod file is being uploaded.

If you downloaded the Amazons 7.0E installation (ModDB index id 12) and installed the mod, the error prompt would say "can not find amazon_militia_axewomen.tga" file. If you are getting this message or your download is between late May 13th- May15th morning (about 2,700 downloads), you would need to re-download the 7.0E mod file.
