TLR + DarthMod 1.4C

[headsh0ts]

I had a quick bash with the latest darth mod, because a) ive never tried it, and b) the recent patch improves campaign AI as well as battle AI, and campaign AI is one thing wed all like to improve with the TLR.

In my very short go, it seemed very, very good. You get an update on relations every turn, so can plan your diplomacy better, i actually got attacked by rebels, and in battle things like fire_by_rank have been removed, pikemen only have a pike (dont keep switching to sword), and spearwalls etc do their job properly.

Now to the point, id like to try and merge this AI with the TLR mod and see how it goes, unfortunatly i have no idea what files to use, and im trying desperatly to finish the info cards, and dont want to distract myself...

I was wondering if anybody else fancies trying this out for me....??

I was thinking... that with a GFX add on, Condottiere SOG's CTD fix (which is working well for me so far!), and darths AI, TLR could make a very big leap forward.

Anyone like the plan....??

I like it alot, but are you sure Darth is ok with this?

I wouldn't mind seeing more mods integrated into TLR so long as they don't degrade the TLR feel and experience.

I think so, on the download page it says anyone can merge it, as long as hes given credit, which is fair enough!!

Does this mean that there is a great chance to see a combination of two of the greater mods in one in the next release?I HOPE SO!!!

[acegogo]

the next step once all this is stable would be to try and make it work with Kingdoms( maybe using the retrofit mod)

[Thorn]

To anyone who wants to help me.. i had already started a Darth+LTR+retrofit mod

I'm still modding the EDU file, but battles and campaign are working fine on Kingdoms.., but sounds seems to be wrong.. Castilla speak Scotish, England Arabic and so on..

ah.. and the symbols of the new factions aren't showing during AI turns..

really do like this, and if anyone busy with this can someone as well implement darth's arrow behaviour into TLR?

[Thorn]

Maybe i'm wrong.., but all units ara available to be trained on casttles and cities?

[Danwood]

will you update it with the 2.1 TLR version when it will be released?

i hope yes it's a nice mod-combining


Another thing: is included also the TRL GFX Update 1.2?



Bug found: some faction flags missing in the campaign map (the new factions of TLR mod)

[Thorn]

There are 3 main bugs

1- CTD when you try a siege custom battle.
2- Factions accents are wrong (Castilla speaks Scotish, England Muslim and so on).
3- The flag issue on the campaign.

I'm trying to fix the 2nd first as is the most anoying of the 3..

i'm not sure what is the problem with flags.., maybe someone who has moded TLR could help me with it..

about 2.1 it will depends of the changes.. if they are easy to implement i will do it, but i'm haven't too much time to redo all my work again.. i aslo want to play my mod XD

EDIT: Bug 3 fixed.

EDIT: Bug 1 Isolated. there is something wrong in descr_sm_factions file

[Danwood]

Good work!

But i think that the pop growth is excessive, in the old descr_settlement_mechanics of the TLR mod was more realistic, expecially for a long 900turns campaign...

[Thorn]

All bugs fixed the 1st and 2nd were related to sm_factions file.. it seems they should go at bottom instead of at top..

uhm.. i thought i was using the file from TLR instead the one from Darth..

i have not tested the campign yet.. i have only tested battles and buildings.. next phase will be the campaign rebalance..

all feedback will be wellcomed XD

[Danwood]

Great, keep the good work !!

i suggest you to use this condottiero's AI to enhance it in battle and in campaign

Another good thing in DarthMod is that, when your army starts a crusade or a jihad, his movement speed (onfoot or onship) is increased A LOT (dubled maybe) for 1 turn, in order to arrive quickly in the city-target of the crusade, avoiding the soliders disertion.

if you can, try to put also this one

[Thorn]

I never liked that feature.. you could get your army fighting settlements till you reach the objetive and the defenderes can't do nothing (the AI doesn't use to defend from a crusade/jihad, but with those huge movements its even worst..)

You still have the amazing sea movement points.. so you will have to risk your army traveling the sea..

i will take a look at that AI, but i'm waiting to test Xeryx's job, cos we have been working toghether and i know his work better..

By the way.. anyone knows how to increase the time before a siege city falls? i mean how to increase siege time..
