No new world?

[superdud]

Well I'm playing as france and it's now 1502 in my game and I've yet to be able to set sail west. Has this happened to anyone else?

The new world was taken out of the TLR map, partly because of the glaring inaccuracies, but I think mostly to expand the map east more.

Out of curiosity, are you running TLR or Condo's modded TLR? I was under the impression that you couldn't get past the 1300s due to a bug in TLR.

Hit ~ and then toggle_fow to see what the map shows. There is no new world as the mod creator wanted to concentrate on the old world and old world factions rather than the Aztecs etc... so yes, this has happened to everyone, however if you like the game but want Mexico you can download an earlier version (1.95 is my old favorite) that has the Vanilla map.

DICY:

To be completely honest I'm not sure. I'm not very "computer handy" and was amazed I got the mod to work at all. It's been awhile since I downloaded it if that helps?

Irish:

Thanks for the info. Doesn't really take anything away from the game, I just kept waiting for it to happen and it didn't. It's a really fun mod. I just went an took a look at the map. I do have the mexican faction. I think that's what confused me. They're there, I just can't reach them.

So you have the Aztecs on the map then.... you must have an older version of this mod (the current version is 2.0) or they wouldn't be on the map at all. You might want to try 2.0 as there are several new factions, and the territory is expanded to the east where you get some really great Muslim on Muslim violence... If the aztecs are on the map, then you must have encountered some sort of bug, and the only way to open them up would be to move a unit to the new world (or from the new world) using a cheat.... Good luck...!

I agree that you've probably got an older version of TLR then, because I don't think the 1300s bug existed in the old versions (hopefully someone else can confirm that).

I'm not sure if I could actually recommend 2.0 for you though. It does have improved features, but at a certain point you'll hit a bug that won't let you play any further, and if you're playing campaigns until 1500 you'll definitely run into it.

The bug might have been 1400s too...dang, now I can't remember. Either way though, it's there, and it's a real pain once you hit it.
