Hello, I've brought aspects of my NTW mod 'Brutal War' to TGW. I only downloaded TGW yesterday so this was just a quick and dirty...

Ha! I'd completely forgot about that. Yes, I found that very strange too :) I was convinced that's what confused AI. Because they'd zerg down the front and flanks getting bunched up trying to get to...

I'm psyched for the big update :D been a long road. Been a long road, you've worked long and hard. Best of luck!

Nice vids man :)
I'm thinking of doing a campaign play-through, but only upload the battles in a sort of story-style.

I played on 'grassy flatlands' and the BAI played much better on that, I also knocked up the difficulty level. Very good.

It was as I suspected, in the smaller, narrower maps when they have vast...

The zerg problem is a problem with NTW its self, I played around with BAI myself in 2016, there's only so much you can do. It's like they're hard-coded to try and get as close as possible.

I can't...

Made a little video:

Small update
-Further tweaked cannon blood. I *think* I have a nice balance now between land & ship cannons. Play a ship battle and let me know if it's still a little excessive or not I'll try and...

Battle AI seems to be okay, but seems to zerg a little too much. I end up having a blob of troops on one of the flanks all zerging at once getting too close but they just end up in a messy blob...

Thanks man, that's the plan hopefully. I've completely forgotten everything lol so just playing around with the files and tinkering to remember.

Wow, so far so good. Not a single crash yet. Only played battles though not tried a campaign will do that tomorrow. Will let you know about BAI after a few more battles.

Nice. Really happy you're still working on this, haven't played it in a couple of years. Got caught up in Uni work.

Downloading now I'll play and let you know ASAP how battle AI is :)

Wish i...

Wow you're actually updating this, nice!! Will redownload now to test this patch. Did I read something about you fixing that everyone speaking spanish bug? I can't recall if I read it here or another...

double post sorry

Hey guys

Sorry I just disappeared if anyone was a fan of this. I got busy at University then didn't have a PC for a long while. Anyway I'm back and started playing NTW again so thought I'd retake...

WOW just saw this, I had no idea. Thanks!

link is here

finished campaign yesterday so making tweaks this week should have an AI update for better firefights etc next week :)

Its been updated since that one. New link on first post :) I've been playing the new one 3 days in a row now, I don't touch any DB files in it yet so there's literally nothing that can cause a crash...

Added video demos so you can see and decide for yourself if you want to take a gander :) it's just something I put together for myself mostly but decided to share incase there are others out there...

Hey guys sorry for the long absence I've been busy with Cities: Skylines. Now I'm back to NTW I decided to return to this. I finally figured out what was crashing so I've basically started to re-do...

beware though if you do that it'll break the game ^ it makes the AI docile and not do anything they think the game hasn't started/already ended. they'll just sit there drooling down themselves...

I dunno. Smart did it in the 90s, self-learning neural net AI. the longer it played the game the better it got at it, slowly learned how to fight - and beat - human players. He still uses the very...

V1.1a
- By request decreased accuracy of all ranged weapons
- Slightly decreased range to the most reasonable minimum I could while still holding back the melee zerg bug.
- Slightly decreased...

Link me I'll take a look

for myself :P i'm crap at modding but most moddres seem to have abandoned us and old mod links are all dead and vanished and there were some i wanted so had to learn to replicate and make own

if...

I'll have a play with them later for you then, decrease range & accuracy but decrease melee attack stats/increase armour decrease melee divisor more/increase ranged divisor.

Hopefully i can still...

I was just tired of the same old melee zerg every battle, I tried other mods but they either break the game or don't do exactly what I want. Like smoke Or blood, or smoke & blood but barely...

I think range is currently 170/185/200 but I'll double check.

TW AI is bugged, the lazy devs at CA pretty much use the same code for all the games which means the AI is just hard-coded to want to...

I wanted some realistic looking cannon/musket smoke choking the soldiers and blinding them like how it was in real life to add to the brutality of the battle so yes :) author of WoS did an amazing...

V1.1
- Encouraged AI to research new technologies/go for trade routes/raid and increase naval power more
- Slightly decreased number of blood particles for musket hit
- Encouraged AI to stay back...

Grr. Removed _kv_rules table while I figure out why it's crashing during cavalry charges.

Man I hate modding fix one thing another breaks.

Why did all the proper modders have to abandon us i...

I'm anti-social by nature AND HAVE TROUBLE WITH ASSOCIATIONS oops caps, it's the reason i don't have friends, I don't even remember half of my own family's names don't worry about it :thumbsup2 I...

At the moment I've increased rifle ranges/decreased melee attack/increased ranged attack factors. In theory this should have the AI re-calculate that firefighting will deal more damage than zerging...

v1.0b - Increased rifle/musket range to delay vanilla's melee zerg bug
- increased armour & ammo for longer firefights - decreased melee attack stats/increased melee defend stats to encourage the...

not without breaking the game, no. I've had a look myself and it seems T/PY is hard-coded.

you can however decrease starting time to something like 1780 and increase end time to 1830 or w/e so you...

it's not really the fact that it's hard, it's just that the AI cheats more on harder difficulty.

i yearn for the day an AI is legit hard and challenging, rather than giving it aimbots and...

it's supposed to be like that.. even more than that actually.

when those muskets and cannons were firing you couldn't even see your hand if you held it in front of your face

Oh and I just realized you're the battle chaos mod guy :thumbsup2 those musket sounds and ambient sounds are great ()

the screams and music needed a little work though so I've...

Pretty sure I have?

Where have I not?
