Modern total war, Making Naval battles, The airforce, Tank divisions and gun units! The mod will change the campagin map from anceint europe to the WORLD we live in to day. From the conflicts in Iraq to suicide bombings in the Western world create peace or cause chaos. This mod (once created) will be a truly fasinating mod and the best so far. (mainly because the airbattles will be nearly impossible to create) We will need all the help we can get so please even if your not that great at modding we need your help to create what we hope to be the best mod for Rome Total War so far.

I hate doing this to you, but this mod will be impossible, and you wont be able to implement many of the thing you want correctly. Further more if you could, this would atleast take 2 years to do..

but, good luck

[Achilles234]

thanks m8 i do understand that its going to take a F***in lot to complete this mod!!!!!

[Agraes]

Yep, it would be very hard to do! You would need a realistic camp map aswell, featuring the whole earth.

[spirit_of_rob]

I also hate to say this but i cant see this mod suceeding. I think you are underestimating many of the problems you will face. first and foremost the few modellers with the ability, inclination and time to devot to making tanks etc.

Naval battles have proved next to impossible to do... at least to do well.

But if you really want to try this then i wish you luck, because i hate to say you Will need it

[Achilles234]

the campain map is nearly complete and it is very very acurate and does involve the whole world some screenshots will be brought out soon!!!

[The True Roman]

I dont see how your going to make the combat fell like it dose today. THe system they have in RTW its almost impossible to turn this game into what you want it to be. Sence the days of Rome you would have to add so much crap that rome just dosen't have. How would you make the citys look like they do today? They are freaken huge and makeing as small as in rome just wouldn't work. Naval and Air combat is impossible to do well with what this game gives you. I hate to be a basterd but how are you going to make this something someone would want to play with all the limations of this game. The game is great in its own right but you cant take ths game from 270 B.C to 2000 A.D its just impossible.

[Dirty Peasant]

I think its better for you to create a modern mod for Hearts of iron 2.No offence but ive seen dozens of "modern mods for rtw" dying out there.

[dragases1453]

Yap...it's very very difficult...it's better to wait for MTW2...then it would be easier to create a modern TW! Anyway good luck!

[Manwe]

Good luck. And I can help you with Thailand.

[Sidus Preclarum]

I Agree with those contending that the RTW engine is entirely unadapted to such a project.

[Zenith Darksea]

I have only two words to describe this project: utterly impossible. Especially for an inexperienced modder.

[PurpleScotch]

Make it a bit more into the future, like then armies use square formations and fight close to napoleanic ages and you can create huge robotic monsters using the elephant skeleton and create tanks by just ataching it to 2 bones, the top (gun part) on the top bone, and the rest of the tank on the buttom bone and therefore make a dying animation where the top flies of the buttom part when destroyed. And hovercraft like they did in the Star wars mod.

GOOD LUCK!

[Boudicca]

This will require a very innovative approach to TW. I don't know what you are planning to do and how, but however, I still wish you luck. You have a hell of a job in front of you and shall need every support you can get.

[westy159]

Well good luck with that. Ill eat my hat if this mod is completed with everything you said that will be in it. Oh and i reckon a name like Modern Conflict Total War would sound better, just an observation

[Achilles234]

thank for that and all of your support. i can say that the campain map is nearly complete and is 4 times bigger than the original map and contains the whole world somescreen shot will be brought out soon. killerxguy i was planning to do that as a second mod is this one hopfully breaks through but thanks for the suggestions all the same!!!!

I have had quite a few people saying that this is a spectacular mod but next to imposible and had may people say use what we have already and make a world war 1 or 2 mod (but world war 2 would be better because otherwise it would be nothing but trench fighting in world war 1) for it is much easier and will create a base for modern total war if anyone thinks that this is a better idea please i would like to hear from you!!! or should we stick with modern total war???

[Lusted]

Several mods tried to do WWII, but found it impossible due to the limitations of the RTW engine.

[Achilles234]

ok ill probly just aswel stick with moddern total war then seeming as i have had plenty of emails saying i should stick with moddern total war.

thanks anyway

How are you planning to make bullets? Bullets don't move like arrows, do they?

[drak10687]

well, you wouldnt probably see the bullets anyways if they made them be small enough and go fast enough to resemble real bullets, so modeling them would just be a waste of time, kinda like working on this mod if you plan to finnish it anywhere near the time that M2 comes out when, like I said before, no full conversion mod (that I know of) not about the roman era (of bad or good quality) has been finished yet, and they have been around for a while.
