Pacco's DBM Roman mod

[pacco]

Here is my mini sub mod for DBM...
I imported my Roma Surrectum 2 shield textures with some changes.


Some pics from game:

Also, I created new hamata textures and normal maps for roman legions.

Instalation:

First of all make backup (maybe you will back on old romans).

1. Copy somwhere on your hard drive these folders (bolded):

C:\Program Files\SEGA\Medieval II Total War\mods\DBM\data\unit_models\Romans

C:\Program Files\SEGA\Medieval II Total War\mods\DBM\data\ui\unit_info\merc

C:\Program Files\SEGA\Medieval II Total War\mods\DBM\data\ui\units\mercs


2. Extract file(s) into your DBM folder and overwrite.

Path (example): C:\Program Files\SEGA\Medieval II Total War\mods\DBM


It’s save game compatible.

Amazing, have been playing RS2 all month and I was 'happy' about DBM but really loved your work in RS2 and was actually going to 'give up' my new DBM campaign and go back to RS2!

Between this and GEMv4 which I'm figuring out how to install, this should be most excellent!

Thanks!

Looks great, thanks for sharing!

I'm not sure if you made the models and textures, Pacco, but it would be cool if you implemented the RS2 gladii for the Roman troops. Personally I think the current model looks a bit too hollywoodish.

looks good pacco +rep, seems a bit daft now that if I release my Roman sub mod that it will only confuse the issue! I think that you also need to replace the helmets with your versions as they look good in game.

I changed some of the Roman Cavalry last night and they look good in game!

The download link is not working?

@ToonTotalWar

Your mod will not be the same as mine... you have different shields in one legion.

The download link is not working?

Strange!
I'm at work right now and I try to download it and it works fine.

[ToonTotalWar]

Got the download link working fine, had to use Chrome to access download

If you look closer, you'll see that the unit cards are there... info cards also.

Yes they r ...i have make with my way that they look similar with my unit cards...

Great work, they look certainly improved.

Any chance to get new animations for Romans (ramming with their scutii and stabbing with their gladii) and hoplites (the current hoplite animations are terrible, especially when the soldiers turn around. No disrespects to the team, but I hte hoplite units in that mod for this very reason)???

Oh and is there anything than can be done about the skirmisher problem? They throw their javelins one by one and it takes like 20 minutes before they've thrown all of their javelins. They are imho all but useless....

The archer animations on the other hand are absolutely fantastic, the best I've seen in a TW game

[Caesar_1991]

Looks real good man

[Monguntiacum]

Great Job! I love RS2.

sorry for mine bad English

Whille i really enjoy this mod, i wonder if it isn't not to difficult to give the Legions the right shield signs

For excample, i have seen that the most of the legions have the thundersign on there shields, whille there where only a few legions that has them (Legions XIV, XII, VII, XI and Preatoria's) whille the other legions, raised in spain (legions V too X) had a bull as sign (except the legion V Aluade, they had Elephants on there shields
the Legions raised in Gaul (legions III, XVI, XVII,XVIII,XIX) had a boar as there signs
The flavia legions, raised by Vespasianus had a lion
The Augusta Legions had a Capricorn as shielssigns
The Macedonian legions has a Minetaurus as sign
etc.....

Also, the color blue wasn't used by the Imperial legions, because they saw it as the color of the sea, not for the land legions
