Can we have a SEPERATE Remastered thread please?

[TesalionLortus]

Or better, entire headline - yes, they're the same engine but the entire game was drastically changed and different systems put in place on top. (Possible they'll result in different bugs and difficulties specific to the Remaster). Not only that, many of the file locations been changed and old methods not always work as reliably as we thought they would. Completely different tools will be released to work with files and map system.

Can we please... have it separately on TWC? RTW and RTWR? So you immediately know what's going on and whether someone talks about new method on Remaster or old one. Still early after release and still waiting for modding oriented updates from Feral, tools and possibly documentation (which I think I heard Edwin mention something about it). So no hurry but better earlier than sooner...

So it'll make things so much clearer and useful when we know what the heck we're talking about. Also... easier finding things about Remastered specifically and what's new, what was discovered/successfully done by others. Just mention somewhere below the Remastered headline to check RTW thread as well because many of the old methods may still work and fundamentals are the same (for less experienced users completely new to the RTW, for example).

Yes please! I'm sick of trawling through decade old hosted mods to try and find something relating to the recent remaster. The effort shown by Feral in remastering this game and offering more modding support than CA have ever done, should in my view, be more than worthy of a separate forum on here. It would hopefully encourage more people to post their projects rather than relying on the Steam Workshop (which is sometimes plagued with terrible mods, made popular because they are the first ones shown!)

[TesalionLortus]

Exactly, I know different Discord modding communities exist but... it's TW Center that's the epitome of modding and resources for many people. It's so weird separate thread doesn't exist yet especially now after release of 2.02 and documentation Feral have released on GitHub... One could think TW Center moderators hate this Remaster or something ? (not saying they hate it but it *might* look that way)

Wait so you are telling me there has been released a TW game which until now shows the most modding support from a TW dev ever, like even trying to lift hardcoded limits.
And the most important TW modding website doesnt even have an own forum for that game?

Ridiculous.

Thanks for the suggestion. Hex are talking about this.

TWC staff like Rome Remastered - as you can see from Makanyane's article on Rome Remastered modding.

[TesalionLortus]

Nice. Also, the medieval unit from the article with different shields looks really promising! It may a bit more complicated and require a different unit philosophy (shuffle across factions rather than on unit basis?) but exciting to see whether the battlefields can be filled with more armor variety as well

So yeah, take your time, we're eagerly waiting for that separate thread

Another vote for this. TWC sadly isn't as busy as before, but still better than the alternative (steam forums, ugghh)

Thanks to everyone who suggested this. A new Remastered mod forum and workshop have been added.

The workshop has a simpler structure than the Rome Total War one. Instead of a list of sub-forums inside the workshop, the Remastered workshop has a set of prefixes to choose from, when you start a thread. At the moment, the prefixes are:

-> Tools, Tutorials & Resources
-> Mapping
-> Skins, Models & Animation
-> Text editing and scripting
-> Sounds and other Media
-> Miscellaneous

We're using prefixes rather than extra sub-forums because (as GED, who owns TWC, explained in this post), we previously suffered from frequent database errors, because we had more sub-forums and user groups than forum software can handle.
