[Download & Installation] Divide et Impera 1.3.2a - Updated April 16 2023

[HighOnTea]

Yes there are some plans to further improve hellenic units in the future, and I think an update for various linothoraxes. Some rosters like Rhodos have some great new linothorax textures, maybe we can find more to replace the older/vanilla ones. Also I will probably re-do custom colours for sacred band units with a more natural purple colour. At the time it was easier just to remove the current colours and start again as that green and red scheme was not great...

Good to hear!

I am sure you have done plenty of research but here is some inspiration from Igor Dzis anyway:

Epirote Phalangite [ Notice the helmet...could be made an Epirus specific]

Great work guys. Question: When 1.2 is official and out of Beta, will the beta saves be compatible with the inevitable Steam official version?

[Dresden]

Once Steam is updated to 1.2, saves will be compatible with the steam version. Right now they are not because it is 1.1.

DeI 12tpy is not compatible right now.

The TPY mods have been updated for 1.2 if you get them from our submod forum.

Hey Dresden, a pleasure talking with you and congratulations for the best ever TW mod!

My save file is here: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/92pqiuw79...hb1GLYdla?dl=0

The region is Byzation in Thrakia. There is also a print screen of my data folder in case you think this might be caused by some conflicting mods although I didn't have any problem until now.

I have this fixed for the next update which I will be releasing tonight, it should solve the issue for you.

I would like to create a mod in which to increase the number of people in the weak units in towns and cities . Like the Mob . But I don't know which ones are those .
I think Plebs and Tribesmen are also like Mob , but it's been more than 2 years since I last played the game and I don't remember . So , in order not to play the whole campaign in order to conquer the whole world just to see which are the weak units , could you tell me which are those ?

Hmm ... I think the only ones that are weak indeed (and fun to increase ! ) are : Mob and Plebs .
I found this thanks to the units' lists (from Melee infantry category) :
https://www.honga.net/totalwar/rome2
I've also increased these units : Slave Infantry .

[Fresco]

It's possible that the part 1 is only 26 MB and part 2 is 734 MB?

[FlashHeart07]

yes

[KAM 2150]

Part 1 is mostly used to patches so it is easier for everyone to download small file.

Hi guys I tested version 1.2 of the mod Divide and Impera which is gorgeous with the slaughtered work: D. I notice some bugs as with spies poisoning armies / garrisons. The latter do not suffer any damage. In addition, the display of unit names, new buildings and faction names is not done for news. I do not know if that's normal. Finally, for the factions that can be freed and who are not present at the start, their names are not available in French. Will there be an update on this. I do not understand that factions like Syracuse and Massalia are in the Black Sea colonies in the campaign menu.
Wishing you a good night: D

[Augustusng]

1. Spies cannot harm armies in DeI, only garrisons. If that's what you mean, then that's working as intended.

2. For all the unit names and buildings and things, you'll have to find someone to make a new French localization for the mod, or play in English. No one on the team knows French well enough (as far as I know) to translate everything properly. It's the same with any other language. If you want a translation, you'll have to do it yourself or find someone willing to do it.

3. If you did play in English, you'd know that we've renamed the "Black Sea Colonies" group to the "Hellenic Colonies" group, so that those factions are also included there.

Hello DEI Team. Absolutely amazing update for the mod which I have been playing more than I should! I just have a question, I razed a minor settlement in 1.20 and I got the empty building slot icon. I then updated to 1.21 and the empty building slot icon is still there. I don't have any saves from before razing the minor town. Any way to have it back to normal?

[FlashHeart07]

You should be able to build a new building in that spot with the newest version of the beta version. Unless otherwise stated all patches are save game compatible.

[medievalguy]

I made the update to 1.21, I am sure because I can now see the ammo for Hastati and Principes. But the building slot is still white like you can create a new Level 1 building there and a 0 where the population cost was.

[FlashHeart07]

So can or can you not build a building in the empty slot? Is it locked or not?

[medievalguy]

No, I can't build anything and there is no tooltip nothing.

[Dresden]

The latest update should have fixed that, I reactivated all of those building types I am pretty sure. I will go back and check.

If you post your save and let me know which region, I can fix it for you.

Edit- also make sure you dont still have the previous version somehow or have it activated also somehow

What is this divide_et_gerula mod you have? I can see that it loads before DeI and therefore could cause problems?

[Wolf Priest]

DeI 12tpy is not compatible right now.

[medievalguy]

It is a graphic mod made for DeI but 1.1. I will start the game only with DeI active to see how it is but they are only graphic mods.
