[RS 2.1a] "Demise of the Republic" Download/Information Thread

[CPT Worsham]

clear, thank you, about Demise of the Republic, I can continue the game after 14 AD or campaign stoped?

The game ends when Augustus Caesar dies in August 14AD. You will be returned to the main menu when this happens.

Can you abolish this restriction please?

Can you abolish this restriction please?

The 12 turns per year script ends in 14 AD, and it would be a monster of a job to add more to it. Further, I would be surprised if there are many players whom have not completed the victory conditions and become a bit board of the campaign by the time they reach August 14AD. This is a total of 783 turns. Most games only last for 300 to 400 turns.

That would be allot of turns but I think RTW-rusteam is after what many want a purely Imperial mod, Flavian to Antonine perhaps

is there a plan to edit this for 1 turn plays? that would be fantastical.

I anticipate releasing a 1 turn version sometime in the near future.

Because I prefer 1 turn gameplay over 0 turn gameplay too, I decided to change the EDU from 0 turn to 1 turn recruitment. (Okay Caligula did the job in a few secs )
Everyone who will give it a try, simply download the

1. "Demise of the Republic 1 Turn Campaign.rar" file (see my attachments)
2. extract the archive somewhere
3. Open the new folder and copy the "Play_Demise_of_the_Republic" folder to your Rome Total War directory where RS 2 with the "Demise of the Republic Campaign" is installed.
4. Override all asked files and start a new game.
5. Have fun.

Warning: This is the changed EDU only, you must have the original Demise of the Republic submod installed.
Just in case you want to switch back to 0 turn campaign recruitment, I added the original EDU as attachment.

All Credits to CPT Worsham for creating the Demise of the Republic submod!
(Feel free to use the one turn campaign EDU if you like)

Somehow I am missing something, the RSII directory is the RTW is it not, as its not mod foldered? So I have extracted there ! But when I go to run there is no option available

Yes, the directory is the RTW directory where you have RS2 installed. This is the path to my RTW/RS2 directory: C:\The Creative Assembly\Rome - Total War\

Version 1.3 Now Released

Version 1.3 (10 May 2011)
NOT SAVED GAME COMPATIBLE

Changes:

- Thanks to the hard work of christophoros a complete and historically accurate Julii-Caesares family tree has been added.

- The events file has been updated so you will no longer see event messages for events of a different era. For example, you will no longer see this inappropriate event message, "Roman soldiers have recently arrested some suspicious, foreign-looking men who turned out to be Macedonian ambassadors sent by their king to negotiate an alliance with Rome's arch-enemy, Carthage. Although Macedon will most likely soon send other diplomats, the Romans are now warned and additional warships have been dispatched to the Adriatic Sea in order to prevent any invasion of Italy by the troublesome Greeks."

[Constantius]

Still haven't got it. Downloaded, extracted to RTW folder( where RSII is installed) But No option !all the other campaigns are listed but not 'Demise of Rep' Any idea why?

[christophoros]

Constantius,
When I extracted my download, I found that within the RTW directory (where all of the folders are that say "Play Romans", etc.) there was actually another folder that said "Rome - Total War". What I had to do was go within that second "Rome - Total War" folder and you should see a folder that says "Play Demise of the Republic" (or something along those lines) in there along with a few other things. I just cut all of that material and pasted it into the main directory and it worked fine.

I'm not sure if that's the same problem you're having, but I thought it might help .

[Constantius]

Thank you very much +REP

[christophoros]

No problem, glad I could help.

[Constantius]

It did, works now, thanks again

[Ketias]

I keep getting a CTD right after I press the arrow to start the campaign. I chose H/H settings, no arcade battles and no following AI chars. I noticed that you mentioned a bug about having the map fow toggled off, how do I do that if I have not been able to load the campaing map at all?

[CPT Worsham]

Yeah it sounds like you must have fog of war on. You have to go into the preferences settings before you launch the game to turn fog of war off. You can either use the launcher and click on the preferences button to adjust it that way or you can go into the Play_Demise_of_the_Republic\preferences folder to change it. If it says FOG_OF_WAR:TRUE then you need to change it to FALSE.

After you start the campaign you can turn fog of war back on without any problems.
