VDM 2.2 for IMPERIAL DESTROYER project

[Aerys IV le Grand]

Hi !

I'm currently playing a campaign with Prussia but I'm not sure if VDM actually works on my game. I still didn't get any disease or cataclysm, or any special featured script. The "raise rebellion" feature seems not to work, and same for the "Dip offers" in Diplomacy...

But I get the VDM Ministers traits, and I can see the Administration points in my government panel

So I don't really know if only some parts of the moe are working on my game, or if it's only because I'm still at turn 6 and such events only occur later. But I tried several campaigns with different factions and never got the diseases/earthquakes/Dip offers etc...

I'm using the following Lordsith "gameplay options" :
- return churches & priests
- return vanilla movement speed
- return square formation
- increased income
- return assassination
I'm also using the 10k gold startpos.esf

I followed the installation instructions

Last but not least, I'm playing on Mac and I'm unable to run any of the .bat files, even if I put the Start Empire.bat in the Empire Total War folder

Do you have any idea of what's the matter ? Thanks !

i dont know if it is VDM fault but every time spain killed i have a constant crash on AI turn either when is the tribes of mexico turn ( previous spain territories on america ) or pirates. the next turn they spawnes as factions.

[nikossaiz]

i believe it is not VDM that causing the crash. I disamble all scripts and still crash after spain killed on late campaign and is mesoaperican ai turn. Any other has the same problem?

[Aerys IV le Grand]

I still never saw Spain being killed in my campaigns on IS so I never experienced this crash sorry

[nikossaiz]

in late campaign they have only one home region in europe, instead of early campaign that are very powerfull. In late campaign does enyone saw this kind of bug?

Download Link is broken

[miguelfadous]

hello the vdm for ID link is broken can you please reupload it

[Aerys IV le Grand]

Hi again, I managed to install Windows on my Mac so now VDM works perfectly
I didn't experience the Spain bug but I'm only at turn 30 or something like that and I only play early era
I just wanted to say this mod with Imperial Destroyer is the best combination ever on Empire. I thank you very much for this amazing work. Far better than Darth Mod !

Hi,

I want to download this magnificent mod,but the VDM for Imperial Destroyer mod link isn't working.Did you deleted it guys or it bugged ?

If there is any other way of downloading it please tell me.

[Aerys IV le Grand]

Indeed the link is broken... That's very unfortunate. The mod creator didn't show up for a while and I'm afraid the mod can die soon
I will try to upload the version I have however I don't know exactly which files are part of the mod or not...

[Aerys IV le Grand]

Hello !

I just made an attempt to upload the files again
Please pardon my English, I tried to be as clear as possible but I'm not a good teacher

Extract to your desktop or downloads

Launch the game following the instructions given at the first page of this thread (the first time you launch the game after installing VDM only)

It's highly possible that won't work but let's try and hopefully I can fix actual issues. Please report any issue

MAKE A BACKUP and read the READ ME !

http://www.mediafire.com/file/2l1o2j...4/VDMforID.zip

EDIT : I forgot to write in the READ ME that unfortunately I only have the scripting.lua for the Early Era campaign (1700) so you will need to take the user.script_empire.txt from the "EarlyCampaign(VDM)" folder, and not "LateCampaign(VDM)". If someone has the missing scripting.lua it would be nice to upload it here for people wanting to play the late campaign
But anyway the late campaign seems more buggy than the early one


EDIT 2 : VadAnts updated the link on the first page, forget anything in this post

Holy ! I thought you would never come back ! Thank you so much ! I really feared the mod was dead
You really made my day

If you're still working on updates, would it be possible to add a script so Succession wars are finally accurate or tied with family tree ? It looks like CA had a good idea but didn't manage to set it up correctly, as they're random and can burst between Monarchies and Republics which doesn't make any sense
I think there is a great opportunity here
The "other claimants" in the family tree could be kings of other factions that are historically tied with the player faction (like king of Prussia for Great Britain, Habsburg of Austria for Spain etc) or neighbouring factions
And if the player doesn't have a certain amount of Control points or Admin or Stability points, a rebellion occurs representing the people contesting the new king's legitimacy
That would be amazing
