    Default Skinners, Mappers, or any other Modders-Praeter Roma

    Praeter Roma is a M2TW Kingdoms mod that is based on the time period directly after the fall of the Western Roman Empire, from 493 A.D. (Creation of the Ostrogoth Kingdom in Italy) to 774 A.D. (Surrender of the Lombard Kingdom to Charlemagne), aka the Early Dark Ages.. It will use a map slightly larger then the vanilla one, and would of coarse exclude the Americas. There is one slight problem, there is no current team! If you would like to help me with this project, don't be afraid to either PM me or reply here.

    You may ask what I'm able to do when it comes to modding, let me tell you, nothing. That is why I need your help, it doesn't matter if you are a beginner or a veteran, Dark Ages needs you

    What Dark Ages is looking for...
    -Graphic Designer
    -Scripter
    -Coder
    -Skinner
    -Modeler
    -Mapper
    -Historians (I can do a lot of this, but I would like a second opinion on historical accuracy.)
    -Concept Artist
    -Video Maker (For previews and sneak peaks.)
    -Anything else that I've forgotten

    If you would like to learn more about the mod, check it out here...

    You didn't ask for a modeler, but you asked for a skinner :hmmm:
    Oh no the picture of my dog disappeared!

    Sorry, I really don't know that much about modding, so I really don't know the difference between modeling, skinning, texturing, and so on,

    Just to let everybody know, the mod has been renamed to Praeter Roma and has finally started to take off. But we still need all the help we can get, if you would like to help with researching, modeling, mapping, skinning, or any other type of modding don't be afraid to ask

    Thanks for your support guys, but I don't think that Nakharar and Dewy were trying to use this thread to advertise EoR, when they could have just made their own

    @Jaguar
    If somebody make a link between his help and with his own mod (as happened in the upper posts) - then it is commercial. I know what I'm talking about.

    Beside that, everybody who wants help can write a neutral post.

    Yes I read it already, he is completely right in what he says, which is why I plan on eventually handing off my mod to someone more capable once it gets started

    EoR is different for two big reasons...
    1. It's time frames aren't that similar, EoR starts later then Praeter Roma, and I'm pretty sure it ends earlier.
    2. EoR is focused on a completely different area then Praeter Roma, although the area that EoR is focused on is in Praeter Roma, EoR has more depth in it. EoR is about the Byzantine Empire, and the areas to the East during the fall of Rome. While Praeter Roma is about the fall of the Romano-Britons, , the rise of Justinian, the Muslim invasion, the coming of the Magyars, and the general set up for the later Dark Ages during the Viking invasion.

    Me and Nakharar already discussed this on the Praeter Roma thread, and we both seem to have agreed that they are two completely different mods

    Yes I know, but my mod is about all the land around the Mediterranean at that time, not just East of Rome, but North, South, and West of Rome

    it is also annoying if some people ask seriously for help here and members of other unfinished mods are posting here and make commercial or promotion for there unfinished project - in this case EOR.

    Dear Jaguar6
    it is pitty that you are working on M2TW. Otherwise (if you would work with RTW) I would give you all my finished units for your work.
    Anyway. I wish you good luck and I hope your mod become true.
    If you need plates or pictures please send me a pm.

    best regards

    Yes, and in a way that's how we plan on doing it. We will do one campaign at a time, and one faction at a time, no starting the Brythons until we finish the Slavs in other words
