Current state of mod with patch 14?

[Totalheadache]

Hi,

Havent played Rome2 for a looong time and think am def gonna play it soon with this mod as it looks great and I love aor units and caps etc...

Hows the mods working with latest patch?

Does it work with g.e.m and I guess gem is more or less sweetfx right?

Well, the only problem Patch 14 introduced to DeI is that AI Hoplites no bug out and constantly charge into their enemies rather than going into Phalanx formation, essentially giving them a substantial attack bonus. Since the player doesn't do this, AI Hoplites tend to destroy player Hoplites in battle.

A temporary fix can be found here. It removes Hoplites' ability to form phalanx while in combat. Unfortunately this means the AI no longer really uses phalanxes, which tips the balance in favor of the player...

DeI team is potentially working on a fix for 0.95. It'll probably involve changing how Hoplite Phalanxes work in general, though.

As far as GEM goes, I'm sure it's still compatible unless the GEM thread says otherwise.

GEM still works and apart from the bug Magic pointed out the mod is working fine. 0.95 is around the corner too!

ok i think i'll wait till after patch 14...see how that goes and then finally might have a decent campaign or two.

cheers.

I'd wait untill the next expansion or something before even trying the campaign, i only play custom battles now, the AI on harder difficulty gets to many bonuses and the AI on medium is easy :/
