Medieval Kingdoms Total War: Campaign Map Master Thread

This model will be able to play when?


Please answer me one?

No need to ask the same question in all threads...
There are no estimates as to when this mod will be playable. We have done a lot but still a lot needs to be done.

Dear developers, I'm interested in the historical name of the "principality of Mazovia" (XII-XV century, pol. Księstwo Mazowieckie).
Why do you have it on the map "Lesser Poland" called?

[jan_boruta]

Mazovia wasn't the dominant duchy in fractured Poland and over time it moved away from mainstream Polish politics. Geographically speaking, there is no suitable region for the Duchy of Mazovia to be placed on the map, as opposed to Lesser Poland. The vanilla placement of the settlement of Belz is somewhere between modern day Kraków and Sandomierz - both were seats of smaller duchies that had close ties to each other (Sandomierz was generally a fief of Kraków, and Kraków was a senior duchy in Poland that was set as an overseer to other duchies until their power faded in the 1230's). They both are merged into a single duchy of Lesser Poland and it will be the "main" Polish faction at the start of the mod.

The region that should have Mazovia in it is so big that it stretches from Polesia through Mazovia up to Prussia. Mazovia can emerge in that region.

On this map, Lesser Poland is shown in orange - it corresponds much better to how regions in Attila are placed than Mazovia.

Lesser Poland really more corresponding, thanks!
If I could give half Yotvingians for Mazovia (dream MAP changes)

This guy!

Why is there no Republic of Novgorod? It really played a huge role in the life of the northeastern part of Europe. Is it because you can't edit and add new regions to map? And good luck to you guys, really looking forward to playing this!

[KAM 2150]

You can't edit map.

[Ramble12]

I see. That's a shame CA is too greedy to let modders do something to improve or change their games. Will miss wrecking Teutons and Lithuania as Novgorod

There is some scale problems on the map.
Examples (Only for France, but if wanted... I've got free time !):
-Brest (Brittany) and Strasbourg are on the same latitude, distant from 900 km. Paris is north of this latitude. On your map, Brest and Strasbourg are not on the same latitude, and Paris is strangely somewhere at the place of Angers.
-Orléans is south of the latitude Brest/Strasbourg, south of Paris, and you placed it somewhere at the place of Limoges (between Bordeaux and Lyon).
-Relatively where you placed Leman Lake, Dijon is not at the right location (it's north of where you put it).
-La Rochelle (Atlantic coast, west of Limoges) and Genève (Leman Lake west extremity) are on the same latitude, which is good on your map, but Lyon is just south of this line, almost on this line. You put is so far on the south! And Dijon then must be more north.
-Nancy is west of Strasbourg, not south west.
-Toulouse is not there, it's more on the mediterranean side
etc.

Look :


Please excuse me if your scale is intended in an attempt of recreating the imprecision of the medieval cartography, or if that has already been signaled

We cannot move the settlements as we would like to, since the campaign map cannot be edited, at least not in terms of moving cities to their correct location. We made the map as accurate as possible within the limitations of the game

I didn't know, I understood you've done another map for the mod. So bad it can't be modfied, even the cities can't be moved at their correct locations. What is missing in order to? CA did not provide its map tool?

[Tighes_Hood]

CA did not provide its map tool?

Yeah they refuse to for some reason. Probably to sell DLC.

[Påsan]

At this point you might as well add "we cant edit map, stop asking!" In the threat title

[KAM 2150]

I even wrote two posts above his post that you can't edit map ;P Actually almost every third or fourth post here is about lack of map edditing tools, but people just post before they read the thread.

[jan_boruta]

At this point I don't want to have campaign map tools... The amount of complaints and nationalism would increase exponentially when I would start to redesign the map with better provinces. Saying "you can't edit the map" is so much easier and less stressful.

[Slytacular]

Jan, we're flying you to the East of Europe to retrace and pinpoint the borders of Volga Bulgaria during 1212. Gl HF

[Alexius.Dejan]

Just follow your vision guys, people can't seem to realise that you can't add in every little thing and fulfil everybodys wishes.

Is it not the point of the game to create your own alternate history?

[Morderoc]

Blame it on the CA scheme to do more $ not delivering usefull tools like a map editor. That said, they now HAVE TO make DLCs, or this refusal could be ridiculous

[The Wandering Storyteller]

Can't you guys be able to replace the settlements though making custom settlements through TED? You can edit the campaign map asthetically once CA have provided their fixes for terry. What about the UI, events, scripting etc? Granted though, the mod tools are not the greatest in this hindsight. They're too limited.
