[Request] 4TPY for RS III?

[Hohenstaufen234]

Someone who can upload this again? Would love playing RSIII with 4tpy.

People seem to write that it works. How is it with rectruitment, FM aging etc?

If that doesn't work I'll upload the file somewhere for you. (I hope that's ok with the mod's creator)

This is awesome! Been looking for a 4tpy fix since I got back into RS.

Does this work better with 0-turn or 1-turn recruitment?

[Octavius-Augustus]

I personally play 0-turn in RS, always. It seems logical that 4tpy is more suited to the slower, chilled out gameplay of 1-turn.
A matter of personal preference. As it is, the submod only 'stretches' characters lifespan, since it also cuts down unit movement points appropriately. So let's say, Hannibal will not turn from 40 to 41 years in two turns game time, but will do so in 4 turns. Making roleplay and character development more meaningful. The building constructions time have not been altered, however. So a building that was meant to be built in 'one year' is now built in 'two season' of the year's four. Meaning also timeline-wise all factions will advance 'faster' that the intended pace. Again, if Rome used to become a powerhouse in let's say, 100 years game time, now it would seem these are cut down to 50 because of the 'fast progress' - the many buildings built in a 4tpy game year.

Bear in mind, I am not sure if this submod is savegame compatible, or bug-free. It seems to be, but playing my Roman campaign with 4tpy long into the game seems to have some freaky effects on traits /e.g. electing 5 consuls instead of 2/. I have not encountered anything game-breaking as of yet, but there definitely seem to be unexpected consequences from using 4tpy in a mod intented to be palyed in 2tpy. I am not sure if these effects will be present in a fresh savegame, I'm not starting another Rome campaign because of that.. Anyway, would be nice to have some feedback from anyone trying this submod, just to confirm or deny the Roman traits bug or maybe if other cultures' broken traits, too.

@Octavious-Augustus I concur with most of your findings overall, but one other thing I found when playing my first 1-turn campaign(Gallaeci hard campaign difficulty) is my economy goes through the roof and my treasury gradually becomes enormous(approx 120 turns), now I know my financial control is good in the main as I improve my infrastructure and build my armies, but this seemed ridiculous so I tried another campaign as Dacia and the same happened, I found it made the game too easy with all this wealth, I've now gone back to 2tpy again and all is balanced how I like it hope you are well mate, good to know you are still around

so its only 4tpy, no balance of the campaign movement or financial balance? not gonna try it out then. wish i know how to make mods. a mod that reduces movement on the campaign i would enjoy.

@tungri_centurio try this recently released mod by Lanjane & crazyroman, 2 of my friends from the RTR8 Project Group https://www.twcenter.net/forums/show...enistic-Legacy
