HELP PLZ!!! I WANT THIS MOD SOOOO BAD, BUT IT IS UPLOADED ON MEGA, SO I HVAE TO CREATE AND ACCOUNT AND IT ALL TAKES TOO LONG JUST GET BETTR LINKS!!
Thanks for your help, i Down loaded this mod with success along time ago, but have had a break from ETW for some time since, this was the best mod i ever played for ETW (except for the bullet prof generals), but im guessing thats fixed now.
A few questions before i try to install it (so i dont have to do the whole thing again....
1. I have as you suggested, extracted all 12 main rar files into the folder i downloaded them too...i now have the files as follows: Data / Early campaign / Late campaign. Im not interested in the Late campaign ( and i hear it doesn't work any way), do i just merge the Data file with the ETW Data file? and where do i put the 'early campaign file?
2. I've done the same for the patch 4.5 files, im guessing what ever your answer to my first question is, i'll do the same for the patch..however, there is a second file called 'Game-play options', in this is as follows:
Enabled regions
Enabled regions + technology
Square formation+trade ships+rakes etc
Standard movement speed+square etc
Could you give a brief description on what these do and again where i put them.
3. With ref to the 'data' files....do i need to open them and drop each of the .pack. files in the ETW data file? or do i just drop the data folder straight in ?
Thanks for your help....i really want to get this right the first time, and not need to start form scratch again.
This seems to have worked except when i press "Grand campaign" it CTD, i can play single battles, it just crashes when i try to start a campaign??
Any idea's.
Edit: Tried using the original 'script file' from the 12 main files...same result. Then replaced this with the Patch 4.5 one, and again, same result??, everything seems fine including single battles except when i try to start a campaign....most annoying!

Hi,
Poacher886,
You should drop the file inside the English folder in the Empire data folder, after you merged the ID and ID v4.5 with the original Empire data folder, and not the folder itself.
If it seems to be working, then you did every thing right. The ' Gameplay options' go as follow, and according to your order:
1) Allows you to trade regions in the diplomacy table;
2) The same as the above, plus the ability to trade technology;
3) You and the AI will be able to recruit trade ships and start with the square formation tech allready, in addition rakes will be able to kill other characters;
4) The same as the above but with the addition of vanilla campaign map movement range for armies ( in the mod by default armies have a lower movement range, my personal favourite);
Beware that you can only use on of the options as they overwrite the same data.
Also if you use the submod VDM 2.0 ( I strongly suggest it), you will be able to trade regions and tech without needing the first or second game play options.
about the CTD, delet your scripts folder, create a new one with the same name and inside drop the ID v4.5 user_empire.script file. Launch, you aill probably CTD, the game will create a preferences script file, but after you should be good to go.
Good luck an if you need help just say,
@PMPG
Thanks for your help, i now have it fully working, the problem was i manually moved the files over to the ETW data folder rather than just copy/pasted diectly into the ETW data folder (why this would make a difference i dont know (perhaps i mis-placed some?)
Either way it now a go'er and i even have small unit cards and 30 unit army's (360 men per unit) so its all as i like it.
Have to say i wont use the game options as i like the removal of them at present..might give VDM a go for my next campaign, after i've fully tested one first.
Thanks again for your help....I still think Empire was the best TW to date, and i've been playing them from the very first!
Can someone plz answer me about the link? It sends me to: something called MEGA,and I don;'t want to start an account, I just want to download it plz help!!

Always the same with the file hosters and the users...do not only read the shiny big texts. Just take a look at the video:

So where exactly are these gameplay options that enable tradeships? I can't find it.
Ah damn. Forgot to mention them. These are alternative files found in the unpacked patch folder. Simply copy the files you want and replace the standard mod files in the E:TW/data folder with them.

squanchy night, Thank you!
Hi again
Thank you Lordsith for releasing 4.6, the changes look good. But I am having a bit of a problem.
When I try and download part 1 from megz site whenever it gets to 99% the page becomes unresponsive.
I wonder in anyone else has this problem and have anyway to fix it.
By the way the megaz site worked before on windows 8 (I now have windows 10)
Thanks for listening.
Hi again
Sorry it turns out it is just my laptop
Disregard my last comment thanks.
