Go to the Lordz and download 2 RAR files (LMCmapmod and LMCmapmod_loc) to a folder on your desk top.

http://www.badger1815.be/ETW/LMCmapmod_loc_140709.rar

Extract the pack files from both, and copy the two pack files to your games data file.

C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\empire total war\data

With the Lordz maps installed you won’t be able to play the vanilla maps, but the trade off is as follows.

Vanilla:
11 - 1v1s
2 - 2v2s
1 -4v4

Lordz:
2 – 2v2s
11 - 3v3s
2 -4v4s

If you want to play vanilla maps again, you will have to take out the two Lordz pack files and you will be back there again.

The Lordz maps are beautiful works of our community craftsmen (I like them best at midday setting). And this is just the beginning!

Depending on which of the map packs (vanilla or Lordz) you are using, games with maps from the other camp will appear in red, and be inaccessible. Other players with whichever map pack you currently have, will see your game in white letters, and their games will appear in white also.

This split map group thing is the major problem inhibiting the use of the Lordz maps. But if you would consider the quality of play that you will most likely get from players advanced enough to have a custom map pack, you might be better of to look for those games in the first place.

Once you see these maps, there will be no question as to which you would rather play on :wink:

Tomi, why not to create a steamgroup for the lordz mappack? This way you can be sure that whoever is online in the group has the lordz maps.

Did that already. The Lordz did not apreciate my efforts. They now have their own Steam Group to which I have never been invited...

One that got away :wink:

NC, there is a 3v3 map in this pack (below) called River Valley.

I didn't see it in the ETW pack (unless it was renamed).

I don’t know who made it, but I’d love to play on it some day.

Maybe it can be put in on a future ETW pack update?

Please check it out when you get a chance. Thanks!
