Napoleon : Masters of Europe (MoE), a new mod by l'Aigle and Steph

[Grumbler]

Just finished my French campaign on H/H. Don’t remember seeing them either but it’s possible I just missed them.

[Grumbler]

This may be a stupid question but does MoE support Multiplayer? My brother and I tried to play it this morning and we were into September 1805 before either of us needed Reinforcements. We couldn't find them in towns or with Generals. Without reinforcements it is not playable. Other than reinforcements, both Naval and Armies, it seemed to play okay. The Technology Tree was greyed out but became somewhat colored and selectable after a couple buildings were constructed. No problem if it wasn't intended for anything other than single player just kind of surprised us.

[Grumbler]

If, in fact, MoE doesn’t support Multi Player how could we make it so that it does?

[Steph]

hard work, since the campaign is not the same, it means implementing in the startpos for MP all the changes I did in the startpos for SP

[Grumbler]

Hate to beat a dead horse but how many hours do you think it would take to accomplish this?

[Steph]

The changes in themselves are probably not that long to do. The difficulties are not to forget one, doing that with startpos editor which is a lot more tedious than the db editor (and so it will be difficult to identify all the chances for exemple to be sure you don't forget any), a lot more error prone, and requires testing very regularly that you don't break anything.

By the way, Happy Birthday yesterday!

My brother, son in law and myself would be willing to test if someone was so inclined to take on the task.

I have tried to install this mod multiple times and failed. For some reasons, it stuck at the loading screen and could not go any further and I did not use any other mods. Where did I go wrong? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi Steph,

First of all, thank you for the incredible amount of work and efforts you invest out of passion to offer and share with us a true and fairer version of the game, napoleon as it should have been ! i love so much the care and acuteness of all those details. the new technologies are wonderful and it add the campaign some deepness. I don't know how you manage to build that up. I know you were not alone and with l'aigle you are surely equal to all the CA bunch !! Napoleon total war is imperfect, the IA is terrible, and the modding is limited but i still love it and play it periodically since it's coming out. By the way I know and have read that your two hard drives are burnt and the mod is over since 2018 but still, i have took the liberty to add some mesh and textures mixing up MOE with the awkward but interesting NM texture mod. I have reworked some stuff looking into the files and with the help of Gimp.

some results are nice and add realism and aesthetic to the battles. I manage to change the robotic and "all the same" faces of autria. (in fact i'm a great fan of austria) and worked on it manly alongside with some bavaria and kingdom of italy textures.

i hope you don't mind, you know, i love you mod hugely and only want to perfect it !!

i'm still working on it and would anyway wait upon your "ok" before any kind of release.

thank you again and happy new year to all !

a look over this old and experienced austrian general ! my god how this website is archaic ! it takes me 30 minutes to share those pictures with you !

Google translate : "Listen dude these are textures and 3 d models from Mount and Blade: Warband - Napoleonic Wars, so you have to ask them for permission to use them. This topic has already been closed here".

ALL the textures and model changes were done by myself or l'Aigle (and a few exception by other contributors like the Mirliton). Nothing is coming from another mod or another game. I wonder where you go this idea.

Hi dim,
I do ignored i had to ask for manipulate so old a game. anyway, it is quite simple to do so i guess a lot of people are able to do so. But if i have to, i humbly ask for your permission. May i use some mesh from MN mod to valorize Master of Europe mod ? anyway if you order me to delete my posts with the pictures it is possible. happy new year by the way

Hi dim 109;

I have read some parts of the link you send me and i didn't know about this old conflict. i now fully understand the problem. i realize now i was somehow disrespectful towards you and your team. If that can maybe sooth, or reassure you, i have modified the textures and fulfill or complete the normal and gloss.dds files to match the wanted result. i don't know if Napoleon MOE and Napoleonic bannerlords mod are compatible, but you can ask me for any textures i added or reworked. it works both ways, i want you to be sure of this. and i reiterate, if you want me to delete the pictures it is possible. it would be very friendly of you to give me the link to the person i can contact to have a go for using your mesh. i understand now why you wrote in Russian in the first time, in fact my name is Ivan but i am French, and alas with no knowledge of Russian language.

I look for your answer. wish you a good day.

AlexNguyen, Same Problem. Game just stuck at loading screen. Do u fix it?

@Steph what the problem? How i can fix it? Please?

Hi Steph,

I may have a question to ask you. I saw you managed to remove the back pack of the papal state's swiss guard, i would like how you did it. it would allow me to add grenzer and jager the proper backpack. by the way, i obtain the authorization to use the napoleonic bannerlords mesh. here a picture of my reworked saxony grenadiers.

BRUH! Finally! I finally launched mod! YEAH. Now i have small question... Why this mod doesn't work at Game Licence Steam Version, but perfectly work at p*racy version? After I downloaded r*pa*k, the mod finally started. Very stragne...

[ sry for my eng, im using google translator, bwoah ]

[Steph]

Because you didn't install it properly... It works well for others, me included.

Hello there Steph and L'Aigle! First of all I'd like to say how much I appreciate the amount of work that has been put into the creation of this mod, as evident in the amount of files present within the installer. There is one issue though, it appears a certain file (specifically MoE_Faction_Hessen) within the link you posted turned out to be corrupted when I tried extracting it manually. It similarly causes errors whenever the auto installer tries to handle that specific file. Is there perhaps a way to fix this issue? And could a revision for all the files in the link be done to ensure cases like this won't occur on other files within the link as well?

Thank you so much for your time and consideration in reading this reply, and I wish you all the best man!

I just tried to download it again, then use 7zip to open it the zip, extract it, and then open it with RPFM to see the content.
Success with all.

Maybe just bad lack when you downloaded it, I suggest you try again.
