Europa Question

[Butmunkie]

Hey Guys!

I have been playing DLV for quite some time now and have just returned from Darthmod:Empire due to the lack of immersion.

In the time I have played DLV I've never once visited America and always considered it a shameful waste of the big map. The alternative is obviously Europa but as a sister project with few updates I have always assumed it is based on an old version of DLV which is annoying because IMO DLV reached perfection inbetween 5.8 and 6.0.

So my question is what version of DLV is Europa based on? Or is it simply a map conversion (if this is possible, no idea what it looks like behind the scenes). If there are differences other than the obvious could somebody who has played both please point them out and detail their impact?

Europa is based on DLV 5.3.

I'm sorry that taking 6 months of converting/adding 3 new factions with new units and skins + events and numerous other features + wonderful art-work from Tokus Maximus is so annoying.

I was afraid you would have to integrate a whole teams worth of work alone rather than just stick it on. Europa does look pretty awesome nonetheless so I will dedicate my weekend to conquering the British Isles.

Why do think those earlier builds were perfection? I mean, now you have total control of what scripts you want to use on the first turn. If you want it to play like 5.8 then just pick the appropriate scripts. But you should give the new scripts a chance, it's worth it! Or maybe you just think the newer versions are too hard. For me, the harder the better. If you want a fun, straight forward mod with some historical flavor and great looking units then S.S is probably your best bet.
