Requesting permission

[Ferrus]

Tis abit late now but I have been working on an xgm version of the Illyrians for my own personal use but some of the fellas wanted to download it and so a sub-mod is born.

I borrowed the stratmap faction symbol of the snake and applied to the shields of hoplites



bodyguards and general, plus more units


And the stratmap


And I even use your captain and battle banners though the running theme is that all the symbols are mirrored to face the other way. I duely apologise for this but i dont know what the etiquette was for using other mods symbols, though the snake was the symbol of the illyrians i used your symbol of it so I wanted to ask permission just to be sure.

Sincerely:
Ferrus

Dear RTR developers, my name’s Pete, I’m from Moscow and for a long time I was completely unfamiliar with i-net rules and etiquette for using other’s people materials in a sub-mod of your own.

So not so long ago while making my own minimod I took RTR brilliant textures of Seleucid armored elephants (seleucid__elephant_cataphract.tga).

I’d like to:
1. Apologize for not asking you before if it was Ok to use this file in my own minimod;
2. Ask your permission for it.
3. Ask is it ok to share my minimod with my mates.

and sorry, I know, my English is still far from prefect =)

Best regards,
Peter.

I suggest bout of you to PM MarcusCorneliusMarcellus who is in charge to give permission or similar stuff.
Generally almost all work from RTR6 is free to be included in other mods or mini-mods ,all you must do is to give credits to RTR team...

So in one word bout of you will have premision just PM MarcusCorneliusMarcellus.

Sorry, off topic, but IS THAT THE RTR 7.0 WORLD MAP!?!?!??
Where did you get that? What mod is it?

Anyway GL with your projects, to both of you.

That's the mundus magnus map, eejit

[Ferrus]

Hmm, Thanks guys for the quick responce. I will go do that now.

I'd definitely download that mod. I would play the Illyrians if their units weren't so bland and boring. You said you added more, to? If not, could you?

[Ferrus]

thegravytrain18: Are you talking to me?

The list stands at eight now i think including the general which are infantry. You can look at it in the XGM mod under 'Illyrian project: Seeking historical and technical advice". Page two has unit images closer to the bottoms of more recent ones, those closer to the top were reworked. You will understand if you see.

[thegravytrain18]

Yeah, I'm checking it out now. I guess that XGM mod can't be installed simultaneously with RTR? But thats what this thread is about, you want to give that ability to your Illyrian project?

BTW what are you planning for cavalry? I've always wanted like a all in one cavalry unit. Like a medium cavalry that has bows, javelins, shields, and pikes. That'd be too cool. You'd only need to make one cavalry unit for the faction, as well.

[Ferrus]

Errr, i think the unit animation will have spasms trying to figure out what to use. And no, just one light cavalry. With very long spears..

And yes, XGM can be played along with RTR as they both uses the mod switch (unless you didnt download RTR with the mod switch..), but if you meant the faction I am working on for xgm then no, as several files would need to be altered to make them playable for RTR.

You can`t give a cav unit(or any other unit for that matter) more then two weapons with this engine.

[thegravytrain18]

Ah yes, I see. Anyways your Illyrians look sweet.

How can I tell if I downloaded the mod switch version? I know I have Platinum 1.9, but it didn't mention anything about mod switching iirc.

Right click your desktop shortcut for RTR

In your target line this should be; "C:\Program Files\Activision\Rome - Total War\RomeTW-BI.exe" -show_err -nm -mod:RTRPE

If you dont have the last important bit, you didnt download it.
