    Default Will there be a DLV 6.2..?

    The title of this thread is obvious...
    I was used to repman's quick updates during the past few months and I was wondering if the DLV team will continue their work with the mod.

    Cheers to all

    The new content is much more complex then before, and require more time. There are also alot of new systems allready added(loan system, A.I playstyle, money support) that acts as corner-stones in any new update. To build a great foundation, feedback is heavily needed(example: Taijis BB constant need for feedback).

    Real life might also have a size in it.

    Thorolf was thus armed. Then Thorolf became so furious that he cast his shield on his back, and, grasping his halberd with both hands, bounded forward dealing cut and thrust on either side. Men sprang away from him both ways, but he slew many. Thus he cleared the way forward to earl Hring's standard, and then nothing could stop him. He slew the man who bore the earl's standard, and cut down the standard-pole. After that he lunged with his halberd at the earl's breast, driving it right through mail and body, so that it came out at the shoulders; and he lifted him up on the halberd over his head, and planted the butt-end in the ground. There on the weapon the earl breathed out his life in sight of all, both friends and foes. [...] 53, Egil's Saga
    I must tell you here of some amusing tricks the Comte d'Eu played on us. I had made a sort of house for myself in which my knights and I used to eat, sitting so as to get the light from the door, which, as it happened, faced the Comte d'Eu's quarters. The count, who was a very ingenious fellow, had rigged up a miniature ballistic machine with which he could throw stones into my tent. He would watch us as we were having our meal, adjust his machine to suit the length of our table, and then let fly at us, breaking our pots and glasses.

    Of course there will be a 6.2 - The new screens are done and sorted. Give Repman time, he'll deliver. Patience lads.

    well.. actually 6.1 with taijis mod on is pretty much an excellent platform for a extremely long campaign! i do not see much need to hurry repman right now, it would be a strangely happy feeling to allow a campaign to last for once XD

    THANK YOU all for the replies...
    Then I have some time to release my next mini-mod, the Campaign Map improvement Project

    It's goal is to make the campaign map really impressive and the work is almost done...
    Maybe tomorrow I will be able to release this new mini-mod.

    [#] If repman reads this, he could check the new mini-mod and use it for DLV 6.2

    You are right BUT unfortunately I attended my grandma's funeral today, so I wasn't able to complete the mini-mod.
    I will try to have it ready tomorrow.
    Sorry and THANX for your kind words

    I hope that CBUR unit roster would take a place in the future release...
    TGC in order to continue its development seak one or more desicated scripters to put our campaign scripts mess to an order plus to create new events and create the finall missing factions recruitment system. In return TGC will give permision to those that will help to use its material stepe by step. The result will be a fully released TGC plus many mods that will benefit TGC's material.
    Despite the mod is dead does not mean that anyone can use its material
    read this to avoid misunderstandings.

    IWTE tool master and world txt one like this, needed inorder to release TGC 1.0 official to help TWC to survive.
    Adding MARKA HORSES in your mod and create new varietions of them. Tutorial RESTORED.

    It is something that I have discussed with Anthonius and he kindly gave his permission.
    BUT I don't know much about implementing units into a mod, so I could only help with the language stuff [I am Greek, as Anthonius].
    If someone could help with making a CBUR edition for DLV that would be great.
    Anyone interested can contact me or Anthonius

    [EDIT reply]: Yes, this is a complete new rooster (not from SS).
    It is the work of the CBUR team.

    In the attached .rar file you may take a look at some screenshots from the DLV campaign map after installing the Campaign Map improvement Project [CMiP].
    Unfortunately, I couldn't get permission to use some textures from Bellum Crucis 5.
    [It is a pitty that they don't share things that they have already made available to public]
    Anyway, I will try to make similar textures by myself, so the final result will be the same - maybe even better.

    Cheers

    it looks pretty good, although the trees seem to have escaped from wow-
    they are just a bit too green and i'm sure they have an artificial apple flavour.
    keep it up, man.

    A suggestion:

    If there's a 6.2, there's something I think you should correct:

    On south america, there's brazil and the "Fortaleza" settlement. But the correct would be calling it "Land of vera Cruz", since the name "Brazil" did not exist at that time, and the city would be a little more to the south and called "The All Saints Bay", modern Salvador, which was the most important city at the period of colonization.

    Anyway, great mod!

    hope I didn't seem too arrogant here, trying to change your mod
