Transfer Kingdoms to Medieval 2 vanilla?

**aNarion.** · August 29, 2007, 10:09 AM

How long will it take until its possible to transfer all the units, factions and everything els? Cauz.. i'm really hoping for a sort of a big mod, that includes some of the kingdoms features, in a huge campaign that covers the normal map of M2..

Is this a possibility in the near future, or am i just dreaming?

Once the retrofit mod is finished I'm sure someone will fill in the blanks.

So yes.

I don't think Kingdoms will go to M2, but M2 to Kingdoms as a 5th campaign.

that's great! hope someone is on top of it, and eager to engage

I hope someone puts a 5th campaign into Kingdoms, a Grand Campaign but very fast put up a grand campaign where they add all the new units to the rebel faction then release it. So I can play with the Apaches, new pagan Lithuanians, and Byzantine flame throwers as the rebels.

Then afterwards, while we are playing around as rebels using "create_unit" cheats, a modder can be tweaking the new units into their respective factions/buildings and putting in the Americas for Europeans to sail to in the map (if possible) or the other way around with some type of Native American transatlantic boat

Can someone do that? Because I know it will take a while to do unit rebalancing, and putting all the appropriate units into the building queues.

Does DLV got different family member characters? or heroes? or does it have forts and complete new skins?

I'm very interested in this as well, and really hope it's possible. Using an enlarged map like in DLV I'm sure all the fractions could fit, thought there will probably be problems with settlement, unit and fraction caps.

Please advertise your mod elsewhere. :|

I wonder how much work it'll take to get mods working. After all, we're not so much transferring Kingdoms material into the mods as we are transferring the whole mod into a Grand Campaign situated within the Kingdoms folder itself. I think :S

One of the CA dudes is making an unofficial mod to port the Grand Campaign into Kingdoms to make use of many of the new features. The new factions will have to be added by others though, since they don't make much sense if the GC starts in the 11th century.

Know who it is or any details??

I was going to try and sit down over holiday here and move over the teutons and possible ireland to the grand campaign. The units and buildings shouldn't be hard, just tedious text-editing. I don't know about the AI or diplomacy.
