M2TW Rome Era Mod

**Antiochus the Great** · August 29, 2006, 01:05 PM

Im sure that many of you have read the M2TW Roman Era mod thread. It sounds like a good idea and all but the person spearheading had mentions of units such as beserkers in his post so it sounds as if he is just wanting to mod a beefed up version of vanilla RTW for M2TW. I was wondering if the RTR Team has anything in mind as far as M2TW. While I like their idea I would much rather see RTR on the new engine.

RTR will not be taken into M2TW. I, on the other hand, have moved development of RTR:UE to M2TW.

It is very rude to steal peoples Ideas without asking them first...

How is Antioch stealing his idea? I'm pretty sure many modders have thought about it. Besides the person leading it wants basically RTW to convert to MTW2. Converting RTR to MTW2 is another idea.

I was wondering about what project are you talking about? The one I know here said nothing about "beserkers" or maybe I missed something. Plus he already asked for support from RTR and EB so we can assume it will be a realistic mod.

@Total Fanatic you must of course be joking and you forgot the smilie. An idea to make a mod in Rome`s time using the M2TW engine can not possible be owned or stolen. Otherwise all but one (who knows which one) of the mods for RTW out there based on the same time frame are made by "thieves".

Oh, and calling a person "rude" is not the best way to make a new friend. :wink:

The mention about beserkers is in that thread ill copy paste it.

"Modders, friends, RTW fans - RTW timeframe fans at least.

I have heard a lot of people suggest a Roman Era mod for the upcoming M2TW, and I love the idea. I simply like the RTW timeframe more than the Medieaval timeframe (or the BI timeframe, I may add). Also I like the units more, like BESERKERS, Roman Legionaries, Elephants, etc."

As for stealing ideas i really think he was joking but i have no plans to make a mod because i don't know how I was just seeing if RTR would be transfered to M2TW down the road some time. If i had the programs needed and the time to learn I would definately try to mod something but thats currently out of the question for me.

Isnt M2TW basicly the same engine. So surely a convertment might meen not a complete overhaul but an adding to the things allready there. (just like how in 1.5 u need to add weight to units etc). So hopefully it will be easy to intergrate into M2TW and will get someone like the RTRPE team doing it.

CA has already stated that converting mods from RTW to MTW2 will not be possible. MTW2 uses a heavily modified version of the RTW engine, but converting from one to the other wont be possible. We will all have to start/do work from scratch.

Yes it was. I see it now. Don`t know how I managed to missed it as it was right at the begining. I really don`t want to see berserkers in a mod about Rome, but hey, maybe that`s just me. Also, he did said about making it realistic(the mod that is) and asking RTR and EB for help so maybe the berserkers will fade away from their plans. Hope so anyway.

They first need to make MTW2 expansion...It would take over a year or maybe 2 for them to anounce the next title...

Twas a joke.....

**svean** · August 30, 2006, 12:28 AM

And M2TW won't be so early you may expect. At the end of november maybe....

Delete Please

I didn't read the first post correctly and thought you hadn't heard of the Rome mod. (Ortus Romani)

**Antiochus the Great** · September 01, 2006, 07:18 PM

I hope so florin, but i really love RTR based on what ryman said about not making an RTR for M2TW i don't even know if ill get it now. I think ill just stick to RTW with 1.7 once it is released.
