Question about DLV for Medieval 1.2

**medvednic** · April 19, 2008, 08:02 AM

I have Medieval 2 Total War 1.2 and Kingdoms installed, I want to use the 5.5 DLV mod, and the question is: will it only modify kingdoms? or both kingdoms and the vanilla 1.2 game? (so that Medieval 2 TW 1.2 will have the futures of DLV 4.2 and Kingdoms will be modified to DLV 5.5)?

It wont modify either. DLV installs to it's own folder & doesn't overwrite any 'vanilla' files.

EDIT: Yes! Beat you to it Furin

It will create a seperate folder, so it doesn't affect the vanilla games at all. Dlv 5.5 is based on Kingdoms, so you will need that. 5.6 beta is already with the patch and the future 5.6 will be based on kingdoms+latest patch. I hope I got that right

.

Harry, u bastard, u beat me by like ten seconds...

ok... so that means that it will create 2 separate folders: one for Mdieval 1.2 DLV and one for kingdoms DLV?

No. It'll only create one folder. DLV5.5 runs off the kingdom exe.

If you've got Kingdoms installed then Medieval 1.2 no longer exists, it'll be patched to 1.3.

ok you didn't understood me... I'll try to explain:
I have Medieval II Total War and Kingdoms Installed.
I want to use DLV 5.5, if I will install it, will it only apply for Kingdoms? or will it also apply for Medieval 1.3?
I am asking if it will "mod" both of the games...

DLV doesn't change the Kingdoms campaigns.

No I understand & again DLV doesn't change Medieval 2 and or Kingdoms in any way. It's completely self contained. You can play DLV and you can play 'vanilla' Medieval or any of the Kingdoms campaigns. They wont be changed by DLV.
