Modding request ancient Rome faction Medieval 2

[chrisnl]

Does anybody know a mod that transform the byzantine empire or adds a new faction that is just like the ancient roman faction with units,tempels,relgion ect. ?. I know it is unhistoric i just really want to see the old Rome rise again !

If not, maybe there is a good modder who would accept the request and write to me in private messages ?

i am really a noob when it comes to modding but i wil promise a reward for the one who can create it

• De Bello Mundi (DBM)
  
• East of Rome
• INVASIO BARBARORVM II (IBII)

thank you but none of these mods are in the middle ages era.

these are classical era

It's very unlikely that anybody will take on this project for you.

Learning to do it yourself is easier than you think. If you want to add an ancient Roman faction to a middle ages game, it would be quite simple.

First of all you would download and install Gigantus' Bare Geomod. It is the vanilla campaign in the form of a mod folder, so it is perfect for you.

Secondly, download one of those mods paleologos suggested. Whichever one has the correct Roman faction you want.

Third, follow Gigantus' Adding a New Faction tutorial. Add the Roman faction into Bare Geomod.

If you intended on releasing your mod to the public, you would require permission from the creator of the mod whose Roman faction you used.

Okay i will try that, thanks guys !

to be honest,my first impression was that i never could do this myself because i am really a noob ad modding.

but i will follow your advice and gigantus tutorial

There is Thera, which does have a Roman faction but it is a fantasy mod with a map consisting of several continents/islands each with only a couple of factions. Most factions are based on Medieval kingdoms though.

I thought the same before I started modding, but with all the tools and tutorials available on this site, it's really not so daunting.

The Medieval II Mod Workshop is where you can ask all your questions and find all your answers. It is a modder's Mecca.

Good luck mate!

I have but it's been a few years and I don't know wether I played the last version. I think they face Uruks on one side and ancient Greek rebels on the other side but with a bit of mapping this can be changed of course.
