I m proud to release another piece of work. I tried to gave the babarians more depth to their trait-anc.system, also for the seleucids. Main work layed on rebalancing--garrison script. Report any bugs or comment to help for future development, and just have fun to play.

Changes for Version.2.2
-bug fixes
-complete rework for the portrait pic, especially carthage
-advanced supply system for all factions
-advanced civil traits for seleucid
-new traits-ancillaries for babarians, charon for hellenes
-rework for garrison script, building stats, rebalancing

When Worlds Collide---right in your heart, for sure.

It's very interesting but I can recruit in my capital only light types of soldiers llike archers, levy pikemen. But in city garrison are ahaion hoplites and other normal soldiers and where and how can I recruit them? And what about cavalry?

Hello and thank you for ya feedback.

To gain elite units for the acheaens, you will need two types of buildings. Firtst one is the greek barrack system you share with pergamon, starting with Acheaen Polis up to Achaean Poleis Elite Army.
But this is just the foundation for your koinon. Here you only able to recruit slingers, skirmishers,
agents and a basic hoplite type. For your elite troops, you need to build another tree too.

First step, build a colonia-requires no other building.

Second step, decide your way between the Sympoliteia tòn Achaion--tougher core units avaible, negativ
bonus to happiness, positiv bonus to law and taxes.
Or build the Isopoliteia tòn Achaion, more regional units, positiv bonus to happiness, negativ on taxes and law.
Remember for these two kinds of buildings you will need to build the Achaean Poleis Training.

For the last step, with all kinds of elite, regional units, you must have build the Achaean Poleis Army and the Agora.

Hope i could clear something, and enjoy.

I'm playing Armenia campaign and after selucid army attack me, in their turn, in loading screen I get tihs error: failed to find texture data/RTR/models_unit/textures/selucid/thorakitai_selucid.tga

Hello brother---a stupid error, done by myself hastyness.
Please go into your one turn folder and open the descr_model_battle txt.

Go to line 3246 where you find this entry data/RTR/models_unit/textures/seleucid/thorakitai_seleucid.tga.

Delete the marked to look like this data/RTR/models_unit/textures/thorakitai_seleucid.tga

And everything will be fine. Thanks for your bug report.

Preview for the next update---i implemented four goverment types, which will listed like religions in BI and causes unrest.

Also new buildings, traits for these different goverment types, like monarchy, tyrannis, democracy, will be included.

Also 4 turns per year is added, with summer, autum, winter restrictions. Panhellenic games now only set to the correct season.

So you have to plan your actions and set your gov. careful, cause without your gover. it will cause unrest. More to come soon....

Some Progress on Unit Card Rendering

Koinon tòn Achaion Seleucid Pergamon Basileia tòn Ptolemaioi Mercenary/Eleutheroi

Umm, I don't know why but most of my family members (except one or maybe two) have same negatie traits like: disloyal, dishonest plus some of them are hated by people. Other think, that my king once where loved by his troops (or something like that) and after several rounds I looked into his traits and he was hated by his troops. Is this some bug or I'm doing somethig wrong?

I'm playing Armenia campaign.

I'm missing a CB_siege_icon.tga in my models_strat/residences/textures folder...

/edit solved by renaming the siege_icon.tga.dds

[leoni]

For DeWitt, which version you got 2.1 or 2.2??? Please let me know.


At kirinji with the origin faction leader traits i changed nothin, these depend on your charac other traits, if

he is a good general, farmer or builder, also you have to build aducation and dont just sit to much around.

I played with armenia some test campaigns for the new traits, and got no problems.

But could you tell me on which difficulty you play your campaign, how does the ai is spreading around,

make the traits, ancillarys sense to you, or you noticed somethin strange, so please let me know.

Because, there is always something to do.

For the coming update i promise it will be challanging one, many dicessions must be planed carefully,

season, and increased movement points, goverment system, generals loyality--maybe he dont go conform with the official goverment, and more.

[Demon Soul]

Thanks for quick reply and for throwing some light on this case...It seems I'll have to take more care about "my family". I'm playing h/h ALX.exe campaign.

how does the ai is spreading around,

or you noticed somethin strange,

I took screen of my map.

About upcoming update- will it be save compatible?
Thanks in advance

Version 2.2, RS II 2.1a

[Grouchio]

Could you make a 0-turn version of this mod? With the traits, interface, portraits, etc?

[Knouphis]

Rendering mounted units is a pain in the ass. You need to import each the model for the horse and the rider. Then import an animation each. Then export that model in the new position for each separately. Then you have to import both new rider and horse model into the unit scene. Then mess around a lot with the different items and position them all correctly as the export/import filter doesnt work 100% correct. When exporting it messes up the position of the body and skeleton and different items. I hope i can find a way to solve those issues. But the rendered rider looks fairly nice i believe.

Hello Grouchio. Sorry, but i wont do that-got no idea how to balance, never played it.

The only thing i could make is to change the unit txt for all to zero recruitment, but thats all.

Sorry, but got a lot other stuff to do, other prioritys. Maybe you could make this add-on, dont know if

other people are also interested, otherwise once again, just try the challange of a one turn campaign.

At Knouphis---you are my hero--thats really looking good. Just keep it rollin, my friend.

plus rep to you

A general question:

When doing RP with my family members, which your mod strongly supports, it's always important for me to keep some control over what's happening.

It would be very kind of you to explain:

1. Which factions got seperate military/civil career trees.
2. How they work. If I have to leave my family members in certain cities to evolve them up to a good governor/general. (A little bit like the LPG submod by Boustrophedon maybe, it's explained very detailed there)

[leoni]

i attached the folder here....thumbs up to your work...

[DeWitt8]

Ok I think I imagined something else then. The trees are no "education" but traits which governors get related to buildings, right?
So all I have to do is let the governors stay in (bigger the better) cities, and my generals with the army?

[Grouchio]

I just downloaded and installed the submod , and there's a missing siege icon in one of the residences files that causes a CTD. What shall remedy this?
