make the Roman Republic.

[Lucarius]

Hello Mates !, (if i may call you that )

I Wanna play a Roman campaign again (yeah i did not played with any of the roman houses for a year).
but i wanna do something new.
is there a easy way to make the Julii calling Rome and give them the whole of Italy.
(so just remove S.P.Q.R, Brutii, Scipii and make 1 Rome)
i wanna use Julii for this because they are Red and have a good "Rome" Logo.
and afcourse delete the stupid senate missions,
god i hate those.
so hopefully you guys understand what my plan is
(ow and it would be nice though if i could keep playing online).

is this possible ?
let me know.

Example: RTRPE, XGM.

Well, I suppose you could by changing ownership and using a few scripts to tell the game to skip the senate. I think if you just remove the senate, you'll CTD. I know how to edit those ownerships and all the tedious (read: annoying) stuff of changing city ownership, but I have no idea how to remove the Senate. For removing Bruti, and the Scipiones, I suppose you could just comment out their entries.

Thought on this: perhaps not give all of Italy to Romans, but let Tarentum, Croton, Rhegium, Ariminium and Arretium have some rather large rebel garrisons? If not, the Romans become seriously overpowered.

EDIT: remembered, vanilla starts in 270 BC, right? In that case, most of Italy should be Roman.

What about downloading a mod?

If you don't mind MP incompatibility, then most mods have only 1 Rome. If you are lucky, Rome starts before the conquest of the peninsula (before vanilla RTW)

Download Darthmod. Barring the Skin Deduex there is a few extra campaigns and provinces added. One is a pure Rome campaign. You play just as Rome. Nothing else gameplay wise changes from vanilla barring a few new units and a few units taken away

(Ie no dogs/pigs) even on the vanilla campaign options.

However I havn't bothered figuring out how to remove darthmod yet. I see no reason to

[Lucarius]

Downloading a mod is no option
i wanna keep it vanilla.
and most of the mods are lagging because of my ass computer.
trust me,
my biggest dream is to play RS2 and BI.
or Company of Heroes (love WW2)

i just wanna hear if this is possible for me and ow
or sombody who can send me the changed files so i can replace them.

Except it won't be vanilla, because there will be a unified Rome...which was not present in vanilla.

[Supermoler]

Yes Lucarius, its possible, and I think I can make one for you

[StealthEvo]

But darthmod IS (almost) vanilla

Download FATW - you shall have no rome!

[Calisthenis of Dyrrachium]

Here's the file that re-names the Julii.
I think there's a campaign that make a unified Rome. I'll try and find it.

EDIT: I couldn't find any such campaign. There was one, but it seems to have disappeared.

Good work - had also the same wish as Lucarius. Wanted all to stay vanilla but with one roman faction.

Will try this later when having finished my current campaigns. +rep

[Supermoler]

Thanks
Glad to helped you

[Lucarius]

[Blatta Optima Maxima]

FATW I like better. It is for BI (which I have ) and it is based on Tolkien's work, not the
shss movies.

[Lucarius]

Yeah it's very awesome,
but there are some things that could have chaged,

like call it "Rome" not House of Julii.
or delete some of the settlements and turn them into italian rebels. (or greek rebels in the south)
because now they are really overpowered

good work anyway

[Supermoler]

Thanks...
1st:The name of faction is in other file, I dont know where or how to edit it.
2nd: I dont know I can set the rebel type in the cities, I think its by regions

edit: about the name of faction: go to rome/data/text/expanded.txt...
There you can set the faction names

[Lucarius]

Ooh thanks !

[Lucarius]

Excuse me gentlemen for making a double post.

SuperMoler,
Could you tell what i have to change exaclty in the Expanded.txt
or could you give me a file that already have the Roman Julii really named Rome (or) Roman Republic
