Kingdoms Grand Campaign Mod: FANS PLEASE READ

**y2day** · September 22, 2009, 09:03 PM

Dave is working on a new project and needs talented commited modders. If you are or know someone that fits the description please contact Dave Scarface. We all know what a great guy Dave is and how talented a modder, and he deserves support from this community. So if you guys want something new from Dave then please help him. He might not approve of this thread and I wouldn't blame him, (sorry Dave) but I think it is needed. For the ones that have taken the time to install KGCM have discovered a great mod and the ones that have taken the time to know Dave have discovered a great guy. Now its time to give back. So I'm putting the word out to everyone I know, and I know alot of people here, but I don't know them all, so please help me. Please contact Dave and come prepared to make the best mod ever.

Here is something for the frontpage of TWC.

Dave.... please keep this open for a little while... I'm begging on my knees, and thank you for a great mod. I'm off to play a few turns before bed.

Well, seeing this ugly native Indian dude or whatever, on this banner, I certainly hope new work from Dave won't go the direction of Empire TW and it's ultra lame Warpath mod.

M2TW is a game about medieval European and Middle East empires and should remain so.

I know this isn't what you wanted to hear but I do admit this guy's tongue and tatoos are kinda irritating and totally out of place. He steals the show from the other two guys on the banner (who would probably slice right thru him on a battlefield). I certainly hope it won't be like that in new versions of the mod (ie American campaigns stealing the European-Middle East highlight of the game).

The basis is still very strongly europe and middle east but as we move to the age of discovery the americas play a part and slicing through these primitive heatherns is one great joy

Trust me there is nothing lame about KGCM i would pay to play this rather than being paid to play ETW

LOL, fear not, I won't be going down the same path as ETW with Americas background movie and Americas music on start up. Looks utterly ridiculous and doesn't suit the game at all IMO.

Very disappointing expansion if you ask me focused entirely on American indians. This would have been okay as an extra DLC pack but an expansion focused on this only? joke. Now lets get this thread back on topic please.

That banner is in noway a representative of Daves new project. It is a banner I put together for the Frontpage of TWC. I am a staff content artist and we have done banners for many mods. The banner was to represent Daves current Kingdoms Grand Campaign Mod, and it does include atleast one Native Americian tribe. Most mods seems their first order of business is to get rid of America all together. So it is nice to have a mod of such high quality include and improve what many have removed. It hasn't been posted yet but will be soon. http://www.twcenter.net/

Sounds like you would enjoy KGCM, I hope you already are.

I never hate to hear any critics of my work, good or bad. If I decide to go back and make some changes I will take your suggestions in concideration..

What kind of help are you guys looking for?

**Dave Scarface** · September 25, 2009, 10:02 AM

Modders, if anyone knows any talented people we ask them to get in touch with us. I worked on KGCM entirely on my own as many of you know. But for this new mod I am looking to recruit a team of modders. I have already tried advertising in different places on TWC but so far nobody replied.

Y2day is trying to help me recruit guys, we already have 1 new team member who is a skinner. But we need a modeller badly. And I would also welcome a good scripter as well as a mapper. If I tried to complete all of this work on my own and learn new stuff it would take forever. Its far better to have a team working on this project in different areas. That way the mod will be of a higher quality.

Next week I´m not there and can't answer you, but I'll be back at 17/10/09

**y2day** · October 10, 2009, 08:38 PM

Awesome!!!!!!! I'm so happy a few have answered the call.

**weissnicht** · October 10, 2009, 09:17 PM

thanks for rep

here are two other symbols:

**Dave Scarface** · October 11, 2009, 09:35 AM

Hi weissnicht,

Thank you for your interest, as long as Userprobe doesn't mind you helping me out I am happy to accept. We are already good for faction symbols, but anything else you could help with is welcome. Just apply to my group Kingdoms Grand Campaign and I will accept you onto my team.

Dave

**weissnicht** · October 11, 2009, 09:36 AM

here is a wip Screen of a new Interface(and yes, that is a new map, but I'm a miserable mapper and scripter

):
I hope Dave will see it and then he can decide if 1-5 hours work of me per week is enough for such a great mod

Spoiler Alert, click show to read:

I wish you a nice week, I'm back at 19/10/09

@Dave: Thanks for answering. The Faction Symbols and skins are only there to show my "skills", so you can decide if is it enough for your Mod

I've requested for developer

**Tricky557** · October 13, 2009, 07:12 PM

was like, wow, the English went a bit nuts on the map there lol

**weissnicht** · October 19, 2009, 12:12 PM

The map isnt ready, so there are only a few provinces included.
it is a screen for the new interface

**BReal** · October 20, 2009, 09:36 AM

Hmm well if you don't already have few GFX guys, you could count me in (I can do graphics me). I already know you've got the faction symbols but this hopefully atleast gives you some sort of idea of what I can do. I basically love creating graphics (I was supposed to go study as something we call "media-assistant" which basically includes everything from photo manipulation to scripting) and I've used PS for ~3 years.
