Additional Units Mod - Empire (AUM-EMP) 3.7 - updated 14.3.18

[Theoden Wulfgar]

Sorry scrap my last. For some reason the line "mod aum_mod.pack;" had gone from the script file so the mod was not running when I reloaded the game. Dont know why it did this but all is working fine now.

Thanks again for a GREAT mod.

I notice that the Hessians are recruitable by the French in this mod. Thought they only fought for the British.

hi, i recently installed this mod on my vanilla E:TW... it works for custom battle, but can i ask if it works for the Grand Campaign?

Swiss Halberdier you probably know this but patch_is_text.pack changed from IS 2.1b2 to 2.1 so I guess an update is needed for AUM+IS 2.1

[Swiss Halberdier]

Thanks for the reply Swiss. I like everyone else appreciates what you are doing.
I look forward to 2.8

Best mod ever! Just brilliant! +2 rep!

Thanks a lot and I'm pleased that you like it!

2.7 is looking pretty epic already as is. I't just sad that the late marines use my sweden reskin instead. Oh and swiss about the swiss textures, I was talking about back in the 2.6, the united provinces swiss infantry would use the aum's skin but it's fixed now as I've seen. I'm very happy to see more company troops and american ones.
I must say that my favorite right now is the continental marines at the moment as I wasn't expecting them to turn out so wonderful

Yes the texture will be overwritten if you use a re-texture mod that changes the vanilla model of the unit "swedish_life_guards_of_foot".

Hi Swiss:
Congrats on the release of 2.7. Have downloaded aum_mod_is.7z from Filefront but when I go to extract with either 7 zip or Winrar I get - C:\Downloads\aum_mod_is.7z: CRC failed in aum_mod_is.pack. The file is corrupt

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

Could you please check this file for IS. All other AUM IS files I have downloaded from Filefront have downloaded and extract with no errors.

Have downloaded the latest Swiss AUM 2.7 IS and other IS AUM related files for just released IS 2.1 and encounter a number of "red skin" (no not injun) units such as with Great Britain (GB) - (Swiss Grenadiers, Swiss Guards and Buccaneers). Also appears in other factions if choosing these skins (may be more) but colour can be red or brown. I tested with AUM 2.7 IS (aum_mod_is) without additional IS AUM files and the clash seems to be with this and IS 2.1. Is anyone else having these problems/glitches with the new released IS 2.1 setup?
My thanks.

Hello BKF, could you please show some screenshots of the bugged textures?

Bah, trying to download the full graphics patch, but both MediaFire and Filefront are being abysmally slow. The downloads end up timing out a little more than halfway through.

All download sites were really busy the last two days and please try it again.

Hello awesome mod!!!!! But im having a slight problem. The game runs great and everything is working, but i cant reload a new saved game, that has been created since I downloaded the mod.

Sorry scrap my last. For some reason the line "mod aum_mod.pack;" had gone from the script file so the mod was not running when I reloaded the game. Dont know why it did this but all is working fine now.

Thanks Theoden Wulfgar and good that it works now.

I notice that the Hessians are recruitable by the French in this mod. Thought they only fought for the British.

The vanilla "Hessian Line Infantry" is now available to more factions, like AUM's mercenaries "Hessian Jaegers". If you don't want that, just delete the last entries of the "aum_units_to_exclusive_faction_permissions" table.

hi, i recently installed this mod on my vanilla E:TW... it works for custom battle, but can i ask if it works for the Grand Campaign?

All four AUM versions fully work with the "Grand Campaign".

Swiss Halberdier you probably know this but patch_is_text.pack changed from IS 2.1b2 to 2.1 so I guess an update is needed for AUM+IS 2.1

Yes the new IS 2.1 is out and the UPC/AUM language files contain the entries of IS 2.1b2. They'll be included in the next UPC/AUM language update.

Hello to all DARTHMOD + ORNAMENTUM fans,

I've uploaded today an updated patch 1.5 version of "ORNAMENTUM Full for Darthmod".

If you use AUM 2.7 you don't need this file, because all 20 Ornamentum units are included in the four AUM versions.

Both UPC language files are included (English + German).

Hello element3ls, this "Unit limit in the UI" is a discovered issue and you can't and don't have to install it. It's just an information.

Hi Swiss:

Mate I have tried so many programs (FRAPS, Hypersnap, even plain old PrtScn and Ctrl+V to MSPaint and Neopaint) and followed all directions about taking and saving screen shots with no success. No matter what I do it only seems to take a shot of my desktop (which by all rights is NOT the active window) when the game is open. Any ideas?

Still getting the "red and brown" skins with the units mentioned. Only loaded IS 2.1 and aum_mod_is.pack to verify. No AUM full graphics or anything else. There may well be a clash with the latest IS Media .pack and the aum_mod_is.pack? Am frustrated about the pics as all methods seem to prefer taking the desktop and not the in game shot to show you. Until I or anyone else can solve the pics dilemma am sorry cannot post but problem remains for me anyway re: red/brown skins on units mentioned (and may be more as have not tested). These same skins are corrupted for me with all factions.

EDIT: Swiss, I redownloaded the aum_mod_is.pack from Mediafire instead of Filefront as I had previously reported a possible corrupted file when downloading from Filefront. The Mediafile download HAS FIXED the discolouration of the skins problem. The skins and all information now display as normal. Thankyou for your assistance and patience. As an aside is the Filefront IS download causing anyone else problems?

Kind regards

I have CTD on startup when attempting to run E:TW when your mod is enabled under user.empire_script. I do it manually, the only other mod I use is darthmod which is up to date. I have other reskin and cosmetic mods but nothing that should conflict with this.

I've made sure it is up to date, and I do use the version of your mod for DM, I also have the proper language.loc pack.


I updated your graphix.pack and aum_dm.pack.

This mod worked perfectly fine untill the patch came out, any ideas?

Hello mikil100, this should be in your user script:

mod aum_mod_dm.pack;
mod darthmod.pack;

I read somewhere that the grenadier units do not have grenades (due to there being an unlimited supply I assume?) Is this still true of the latest version?

If so, is there a simple line of code to include to re-enable the grenades that you could provide? I admire the desire for realism (i was on the old RTW Ancient Empires realism mod team) but I would rather have the grenades and trust myself to cease using them after one or two throws.... and i'm not afraid of the AI exploiting them

The vanilla units still have grenades, some AUM units dont though.

you can use the packfile manager to enable grenades. use the PFM to open aum_mod.pack. expand it, then expand "db". look for "unit_stats_land_tables" , expand that too. click on "aum_unit_stats_land". you can add grenades to certain units here, just dont add grenades to cavalry or you'll get a ctd

I have a question. How do I make elephant crews fire while moving. They're to vurnable while reloading.
Also Swiss, maybe u should make an elephant unit that shots arrows or rockets, maybe even one with puckle gun

Hey Swiss if i Download DM 3.2 it Will Work With Aum 2.7 ...?

[mikil100]

Hello mikil100, this should be in your user script:

mod darthmod.pack;
mod aum_mod_dm.pack;

That is my script.

Do it exactly like Malakai1977 has described the process. Please read my FAQ on the second post. There's a "How to customize AUM" guide.

Elephants don't have an animation "fire_while_moving". Also cavalry units which use pistols can't fire while moving.

Info from my FAQ:

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

Is AUM still playable if a new mod version (Darthmod, A Proper Empire:Terra Incognita, Imperial Splendour) or a new official CA patch has been released ?
AUM will be playable with the new version but probably are the stats not balanced anymore.

That is my script.

Did you read the "AUM Troubleshooting Guide" on my FAQ?

It can be very helpful if you provide screenshots of your data folder, script folder, script-file and if used "Mod Manager List".
