Dear modders here on the TWC and lovers of DBM,
I recently received unreleased content from Rhaymo who stopped with active modding activity, but he was working with a few Italian fellows of ours on a new DBM mod based on the "Barbarian Invasions", basically a MII revival of the RTW "barbarian Invasions" 1.6... tailored to the IV and V AD centuries.
The mod is somewhat on a semi-good status, mainly this is what already presents:
- The units were all ready and even the map, the edu, the cards, the characters on the map, in short the project was well on track.
-All cities have a general inside them, but we had to enter the start-up units.
- The units of the rebels are missing
- The symbols all seem to be in, apart from the small ones found in the various panels (diplomacy, finance, etc.). The Roman Empire, for ex., is still Macedonians.
-Expanded.txt must be upgraded
-Scripts completely absent
- Not all the factions that you will find under the unit_model folder are in the game, from custom battles you can see the ones present
- Many DBM units are still stored in the mod but not used, hence they are not useful (but can be properly retextured to match the late Roman Empire era)
Up to know, It's really impossible to me to undertake this project too, especially if alone as I do not have time to mod more than what I'm doing...
Hence, I propose to interested modders to evaluate this proposal and show their interest - participation by putting a comment and declare their willingness to mod on it.
If I find someone available atm, I'll upload the download links that Rhaymo passed to me (and he will pass me a few more too)...
So, that's it, please let me know if this semi-developed project interests you!
