SOLVED: simply don't delete and regenerate music.dat and music.idx when you update to 2.35A, contrary to what the readme says.
It's useless anyway because the patch actually updates the voices...
Same issue, on 2.35 music worked fine, when I update to 2.35 R35 music disappear. I deleted the sound files, they seem to have regenerated correctly but the issue remains. Any idea?
Hey if you are (dumb) like me you may have forgotten to download the 2.35A patch - I just assumed it was a link to the 2.35 installer and didn't download it. This caused some icons and images to...

I'd very much like to play a more fleshed out Lougiones faction
just because you can, it doesn't mean you should.
You know, you have an awesome power which is the gate of many wonders: it's called restraint. You also have another which is even greater:...
I noticed rebel armies reverted to the old vanilla behaviour of leaving settlements lightly defended and consolidating into huge dreadstacks wandering the province. This is probably the real reason...
Instead of tinkering with faction personalities that are not yet fully understood after so many years and may do nothing, you could give some secondary hit points to the roman infantry, it would...
About the new melee kill rate I think it's an improvement, still low enough but clashes are more impactful now. Previously killing was a bit too unreasonably slow imho. It's not like now frontal...
Got back to EB 2 after a long time and I have to say this "small" update is pretty awesome! I'm playing my beloved Arevaci and balance looks very good from both military and economic perspective. I'm...
Very nice channel, a lot of interesting videos especially about italic peoples
Hi @JaM, nice to see you came back to the mod. Are you planning to fix these economic problems? Waiting for the update!
Amazing! Looking forward to this!
You may split the Milan region in 2, Piedmont and Lombardy. Historically they were two very distinct and important regions, and northern Italy was the most densely populated "country" in Europe, so...
Considered that it's very difficult to understand how ancient combat really worked even on the most basic level, and that is even more difficult to implement a realistic battle system in a total...
Perfectly said. I'd add that many are not even that interested in the "history of violence", seeing it as something despicable. I think this transpires in many articles and books I read, where...
I'm not taking a position, but I'm sure you read plenty of professors blindly repeating outdated stereotypes, especially on military matters, simply due to either:
1) lack of knowledge of the most...
Yes, it occurred to me later, sorry.
My rant was not really about this project but the people in Italy (often young and smart) cheering the coming of a translation, or whining because publishers...
Good luck, but I'd rather try to persuade our people that learning basic english might be actually quite important, dunno? They still don't seem to get it. Not that difficult either: to me, school...
I played Chartage H/H and I wanted to give the romans time to expand, but after conquering the rebel african cities I was bored so when the war eventually broke out I was happy to take them on. I...
Can't say about other countries but in the current map Italy seems to need a revision: out of my mind (it's been a while since I played last time) the biggest offenders were the weird course of the...
Thanks for the guide, very interesting stuff. What I find odd is that I remember Point Blank claimed that higher projectile mass aid in armor penetration, and never said anything about the lower...
I didn't look at your descr_projectile file yet, but now I see a couple of very unusual things:
1) Why heavier javelins have lower mass values than lighter javelins? In other mods is obviously the...
"Disruption" doesn't translate into anything in gameplay terms, except maybe "create some gaps in the enemy line" = "kill some enemies" = raise the damn attack or hit rate values.
Ankyle or not, I...
I was thinking of javelins mainly, and particularly about "prec" units that are given 7 attack javelins, which are useful only against very lightly defended skirmishers, and useless as a pre-charge...
:laughter: LOL what? the role of ranged units in this mod is precisely to take away that additional HP and make enemies easier to kill in the ensuing melee. The fact that in this mod the ranged...
I think that currently temples are a mess and they badly need a rebalance. I also posted my proposals (more based on gameplay that historicity I admit). Sadly Quintus answered that a temple rebalance...
As a carthaginian, I loved the lybian foot skirmishers, they can do anything. For their price, they are OP.
There are some rather undeveloped barbarian settlements that have palisades on ramparts, like medieval motte and bailey castles. I agree they are the hardest to conquer because you can only attack...
Well personally I wouldn't say serious problems, battles can be awesome and are better than in the vast majority of other M2TW based mods IMO. I'd say that some fìne tuning is needed, but hey,...
I wanted to reply to him too, because as I understand it, he said that frontal charge may not be effective, but a flanking charge (from Gaesati nonetheless!) can be very powerful. Quintus made a...
Like Jurand, I'm not convinced that flanking and shooting javelins in the back was common in ancient times. Honestly, I remember evidence of this behaviour only in cases of some famous ambushes....
Frontally, before a charge. I just ran some test battles, 3 batoroi against 3 cisalpine swordsmen (same stats), 1 unit of archers as general. The mighty volley of javelins thrown before the impact ...
The problem is that frontal charges are useless, even when performed by celtic elites. I doubled the charge value of Arkoi and I barely noticed any difference, things improved only when I doubled...
Any chance this submod will be updated for 2.35? I enjoyed it a lot
I honestly didn't see the utility of infantry charges in any mod. Never understood why modders give units such low charge values that are practically irrelevant. I'll probably double them in my game...
Hi, I tried to improve the performance of the Illyrian light phalanx and I found that giving them "long_pike" makes an amazing difference and doesn't seem to have any downside. Maybe it's because...
I gave battle temples retraining cost reduction, but then I realized many "forge" temples are actually dedicated to healing gods, so it makes more sense to leave this bonus to them as it is.
