Άνοδος Ελλάδα : Ολοκληρωτικός πόλεμος

[SavageFeat]

Ανοδος Ελλάδος: Απόλυτος Πόλεμο
(Rise of Greece: Total war)
I want to make a mod for vanilla RTW. Any help, advise or modders would be appreciated. In this mod i am going to add and remove some factions as the same time as the vanilla rome is set in. help needed would be a model editor and a campaign editor to add some settlements.

What I aim to do in this mod

add some more settlements in

Northern Gaul and Britannia, Greece, Asia minor and Persia

Change Factions

Free greek city states = Aetolian legue They will have Athens, Rhodes and Thermon Romans Brutti = Sparta With only Sparta and a special spartan roster Britannia = Belgae, Gauls. With 2 settlements. In in northern Gaul and one in southern Britannia. thats why i wish to add some more settlements. Gaul = Arverni and Cisalpine, Gauls Southern Gaul Romans Scippi = Pergamon With only Pergamon I also wish to add some more settlements to the Seleucids to give them a bigger survival rate and weaken the egyptians Egypt =Ptolemaic Kingdom I wish to weaken them aswell

Any other factions that can be thought of will be considered. but i dont want to add any more Gauls.

Also do the sennate attack other factions? if i leave them as the last Roman faction?

First and foremost: can you mod yourself? Nobody is going to join your project if you don't know what you're talking about.
Second: there are lots of proposals of mods focused on Greece already. What makes your mod any different? What makes it special?

True that.... it. I'm going to stop this project.... in order for a new project. Bull3pr00f is right theres to many mods around about Greece and Rome, so I'm gonna make a mod on BI. About the migration period of the Germans and Huns. There won't be any work done until next weekend as I'm not allowed on the computer on weekdays but I will do some research during this week. Also holidays are coming up soon so I will be able to work on it very much then. I will make a thread about this when I have started editing some of the factions.

Ps. Who should I pm to close this thread?

WTF?

Who cares how many mods have been based on a given subject or timeline. There have been numerous Rome-based mods, but what if the RS team had thrown their hands up and quite because there were "too many mods around Rome"? We'd have no RS2, would we? What if the RTR team had just said "it's been done already" and quite? There'd be no RTR VII on the horizon.

Forget what Bull3pr00f says, he talks nonsense 90% of the time. You should make the mod about what you want it to be about, don't worry about how many mods out there are based on similar subjects.

Yeah but it's hard.... This project will be easy I'm slightly modifying at the beginning and Im gonna do it cause I was playing bi yesterday and thought that there was not enough settlements in germania. I like this time period, not as much as classical Greece or the rise of Rome but I still like it. And I think that it will an enjoyable mod to make.

I'm Greek, better to change it to: Ανοδος Ελλάδος: Απόλυτος Πόλεμος.

1) nah not really I just sorta want someone to point me in the right direction if i get stuck. 2)cause its mine, but it doen't really focus on greece I just couldn't think of a name.
but everyone has to start somewhere

Oh okay ty

[Bull3pr00f de Bodemloze]

The Workshop is a good place to start

2)cause its mine,

That's not a reason for being special

but everyone has to start somewhere

Submods are a better way to learn.

I can't be bothered making a sub mod and this is gonna just be a little sub mod where I'm changing some factions around not really changing the tech trees till later. I am using the workshop, and it is a reason.... To me.

[Valkar]

i don't know why, but there are recently a lot of people want to make a greek mod. Why don't you guys wait for Hic Est Lacedaemon or Hegemonia City States?

[SavageFeat]

Cause this is mine and I can make it the way want and it's not just based on Greece.

[Valkar]

Have you got any mod experience?

[SavageFeat]

No that's why I'm starting with this.

[Valkar]

I think that is not really a good reason ?
The best way to start a mod is with a little bit experience, and in your progress your mod skills will improve blah blah blah..
I recommend you to look at many of the tuturials in the Rome Workshop section, and we see you back soon, when you can do more then just talk

BTW: im pretty sure there are many other mods focused on your ideas.. I should do a bit of research if i were you.

[SavageFeat]

But how do you get the experience? by modding.... and i am reading as much tutorials as possible

[Valkar]

I assume you have no experience, so for you it would be best to messing around with Rome Total war a bit. Just read some tuturials and try to use them, par example add some units, buildings and see if it work. And try to edit the Campaign a bit..

Yeah sorta what I was gonna do cept editing the campaign map cause I heard it was hard..

[Hoplite of Ilis]

Man...., I tried once to learn about moding. Saw some videos on youtube, some tutorials over here... I chewed more than I could bite! When it got too technical, I didn't get a freakin' thing. Do you need to know programing before everything else?

[Bull3pr00f de Bodemloze]

Do you need to know programing before everything else?

Not really. Admitted, you should have a "feeling" for computing. I like the IT we get at school, while the majority of the class doesn't, for example. I recommend to read my tutorials first start simple; add a province to the map, add a new unit, etc.
