IB2 BRITANNIAE III DOWNLOAD AND DISCUSSION

[Reno Melitensis]

It's from this free-to-use animation pack. Warning, it's somewhat hard to add them. I would suggest this tutorial here, or the Readme file in the zip. It only affects the visual aspect of the game but IMO it looks great. You'll also find some other really great animations, like proper Legionary animations and such. There are plenty of animations that work with your mod's time period

Banzai have been banned, we will have to get the animation pack from an other mod as the download links have been removed too.

Cheers.

Yep, im the first one to get to 482 apparently Anyway, how big is the patch? I just tried checking it in GetGo download manager and it failed

Its very small-Just over 7 mg...I added the custom portraits because I changed Majorians portrait and somewhere down the line we will edit a few more. I can try and make you a custom one a bit smaller if need be.

[praxton7]

hmmm woot thank you...hmm gotta start again..lol

[Mr Kriegtooth]

Only 7MB? I can handle that! Seems like the very first patch was like 95MB or something

Edit: Was unable to download this..using IE anyway. I just downloaded the special one for me, that Riothamus so nicely made

[Tasmansk Tiger]

Are the patches save game compatible?

[Riothamus]

Are the patches save game compatible?

The Patch II.5 isn't save game compatible. Its important though to to patch the mod. Its the last patch we hope for awhile. There are a few detailed things like a few certain banners that we will get to a a later time but as long as there is nothing glaringly wrong we will leave it alone

[Mr Kriegtooth]

I made a post in my topic about it too, but could you upload the patch to TWC also? Mediafire and other sites like it crash through out downloads on dial up for some god awful reason(I assume due to slow speeds it just throws me out). But TWC doesnt...downloaded several things off of this site without problem And if its like 10MB or so, cant imagine it'd be much of a problem

Edit: Nevermind, I got it

[Berg-i-dum]

Is it supposed to be save game compatible this II.6 patch?.

Cheers.

Patch III will not be saved Compatible

Patch III

Hopefully I will have time soon to show some pics of how some of these changes will appear
Some Additions-
Ambrosius and Aedgius 28-29 years old and a son of Vtalis(Vortigern) from a first marriage.
The Family tree will show the deceased Vitalis ruling over several splintered faction trees from previous wives.
Horsa is scripted at the games start to be a younger brother to Hengest.
The AI factions will have a slightly bigger push to start off the game
Wudusan unit description for Sahson
-was missing its description
Pelagianism heretic trait no longer at the start for several faction leaders
-Pelagianism will be present in Britain but faction leaders will not have this trait to start off the game.
Caer Usk Given Roman Walls
EDB differentiated Horse Pasture and Stud Farming
Stud Farming is now the Equestrian first level building
Re did many bld pics-This s nearly finished. A great deal of work has gone into creating some historical differences for certain faction bld. trees
Banners finished
Several units textures done
Domesticorum Pedites only obtainable at Soisson for the Roman (DoS) Faction
-I will make this unit also a General Body Guard For this faction
Expanded file upgraded(strat map names to blds, characters etc..)
Royal families expanded
Settlements and provinces revised
Names file expanded
Royal Families of most of the factions are expanded.
-A deceased Vortigern is portrayed as the once faction leader of the now several splintered
-factions as mentioned above
Added and revised several portraits
Heir Crown -Testing
Duplicate settlement and province names(NOT DONE)
-Several provinces contain the same name name for the settlement and province. We are trying to untangle the remaining ones
-Also the religious traits-I'm hoping (to modify) and able to convert to go along w/the factions curent ability to convert
EDU -rhalina has recently done some outstanding work revising EDU stats and some of it we may add
I'm also going to redo the 3 Britain Germanic faction maps..Probably represent a Saxon, Jute or Anglo ship from whence they came from and and where they are currently settled in Britain

Much of this work has been a continuation of the teams continued commitment in creating this a very spacial mod

[Riothamus]

Patch III-further additions
-I have created a new load up sword(handle and knob) so you will See a much more realistic sword during the games load up.
-Divided u the (5)Heir crown ancillary into their distinct cultures including the Concilium faction
-Added past faction leaders into the Royal families to show their famous dead ancestors w/their distinct portraits
-Have added more and sited several custom portraits to historical characters

[Mr Kriegtooth]

Neato! Hope the DL wont be too big and not work for me

[benczeb90]

Aww yeah, you rock Rio!

[Riothamus]

Aww yeah, you rock Rio!

TY bencze. The IB2 team has done some magnificent work here. I am adding some detail w/ some changes or corrections

-The Britain Germanic factions maps I redid using their raiding or warships to show there origination and settlement landings. Their sails will display their faction colors
I re did several faction map colors for further differentiation. Their start models will correspond to this
-Have been Redoing some ancillary pics
-And certain building descriptions needed further expansion to who they function -their importance in the EDB file-to give players a better grip on the political and economic systems thus giving the knowlegde to what needs to be built and why
-I Would love to make a IB2 Britaniae Building and unit guide

Also midnites Germanic units are brilliantly done!! A must to play!
Hope to show some pics today

[benczeb90]

This is a wonderful idea to make a guide as well. Wow man! Thanks for all the staff!
I really enjoy reading building and unit descriptions. This way i understand what are the buildings and units for. Important thing

[Lord Derfel]

This is a great mod and has alot of atmosphere. Is there a time frame on when the patch will be released, I or more the question should I start a campaign with the current 11.5 patch or should I wait for the new patch?
