Citadel: Total War- The Rennaissance

[FEMTO]

Hey thanks for allowing me onto the team. And yes I don’t mind doing artwork too. Anyway, I have to go to work after I have finished typing this. And then I have to go to football straight after work, but when I get home I will get started on something and hopefully have something to show. Is there anything you want me to do specifically first?

[Silver Rusher]

I will PM you.

[Shigawire]

Looks like the beginnings of a great mod is in the works here.

I would do some 3d-modelling.. If I wasn't already busy with VoiceMod for RTR.

[Silver Rusher]

Well why not do both? I can't see why not.

[pinstripes33]

wanted to jump and say if its not to late the the Golden Horde empire fell apart in 1405.

[Silver Rusher]

We know that. The game does start in 1402. I know there's only three years, but still.

[Shigawire]

Well why not do both? I can't see why not.

I need enough time for relaxation and time for a social life. etc

[Uesugi Kenshin]

What is this "social life"???

[Silver Rusher]

What is this "social life"???

LOL. As if modders actually have any social life.

j/k. That's perfectly fine, although society really doesn't take up that much time if you think about it. Then again you do have your Voicemod to work on, which I respect.

[Uesugi Kenshin]

No really I am interested, what is this strange thing????




I am done now

[Tribolute]

Another thing is how you're going to control the princess marrying off...

Like would you add it as a diplomatic proposal because the princesses of the royal families would never marry a commoner.

[Silver Rusher]

Sorry Tribolute, not possible.

[Saranalos]

I'd like to hepl on skinning but i can't get those god damn DS plugins to work

I couldent get the .dds plugins to work either are you sure you are downloading the right plugin? Read the small print something I almost never do. And it should tell you which .dds plugin is for photoshop and paintshop pro
on the Nvidia home website.

[King Yngvar]

Question; Instead of various Scandinavian factions, why not adding a Kalmar Union?

[Silver Rusher]

There's only one scandinavian faction, and that is Denmark.

[humvee2800]

yo girlfreind lol anyway um i was wondering do you have any release date prepared cus oi truly cant wait for this holy holy holy mod lol oh and if u want id love to bettest (contact me at humvee2800@yahoo.ca) ive beta tested for many many mods for many different games and have got soem exerience in it now

[Silver Rusher]

Hmm, there is not currently a release date on the mod. In fact, it may be months before we even decide on one. Anyway, when a beta arrives, we might need you back.

[Uesugi Kenshin]

Yup. I think our answer to all of those questions should be, "You will get it when it is done" because that is what we should do. Anyway it is great to see so much enthusiasm about this mod.

[friendlyindian]

I am a noob, and I know nothing about modding, but I can help you with research, or testing. If you want me to help you guys with research, please send me a brief summary of what you already have to my email: pratikray@msn.com-in the subject type modding info. As always I am the friendlyindian here to help

[Saranalos]

I will not be around cos of christmas and all that so I will be back for january at the latest

[Uesugi Kenshin]

I will be around so if anybody has questions or info I will probably be able to help.

[Ianofsmeg16]

yhis looks fantastic, i'm no good at modelling but i do now quite a bit on historical armies no bragging, for example, the italians focused primarily on arquebuses/firelock muskets, and the longbow in enlgand was in decline but still used, France was incredible with cavalry and spain was focused on pikemen/halberdiers

will you include the discovery of america?

[Silver Rusher]

Unfortunately actually having the Americas and other areas in the mod is restricted by RTW's engine, but we will be including it as an "event".

If you wish to contribute to historical army research, please post in this thread: https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/showthread.php?t=39947

Thanks and welcome to the ORG,

Hi Silver Rusher

The mod sounds cool and i'd love to help. I have a bit of knowledge on the military tactics and armies of the time... I could do some research too.

my email is dark_shadow89@hotmail.com

piece of info #1:

From what i've read armies at this time (1500s) were massive pikemen armies (swedish & swiss). Guns were still pretty primative, with arquebuses and early muskets. Soldiers still wore armour too. I've thinking u could convert the hoplites in RTW to become pikemen - just take away the shields.

thats all...hope i make the team...

Hi, SilverRusher is no longer very active on the forum. I have been elected the new team leader. I will send you an e-mail.
Can you model?
Can you do any sort of 3D or 2D work?
Other than that we have pretty much everything covered I think, but more help is always welcome.

[caesar44]

hi team leader
you said that you covered almost everything
how are you going to represent the papacy ?
its going to act like the senate ? or like the papacy in mtw ?
there is to be several german states or one h.r.e. ?

besides , good luck

[Uesugi Kenshin]

The papacy is going to be like the senate, and will influence the Italian states. There will be one HRE and I believe there were some ideas as to how we could make it more historically accurate, but I do not know if we decided on one.

[caesar44]

hi
ok
please make it several german states
the largest conflicts of the era were between the german states
the hre was just a frame with no reality
one german state was making alliance with the franch or english against another german state
the hre did not have a singel policy , to the contrary

[Yggdrasill]

I think the the Habsburgs are the playable faction. So the player will control those provinces that belonged to them. All the others will be 'slave' faction. Really dumb way of doing it but unfortunately the only one as CA didn't give us the option of unlimited (or at least a very high number) factions. Even worse, we can't even change the culture they belong to so we had to fit our faction list to those demands.
I'm not really sure what is the final decision, if we get HRE as a unified country, I think that's a valid way of doing it as well. After all, the CA used the exact same aproach in MTW. May even solve some problems we would otherwise have.
If it were up to me, we'd have all the electoral princes and bishoprics. But it's not. Live with the pain.

[caesar44]

outch...
but if every slave faction in the hre should have a diferent name , color etc ?
is there a problem in the ai of the slave factions ?
