Hi all

excuse me for my poor english

We are a little group of italian modders. We would to release on this forum our little mod, Roma Immortalis, based on the post-Dioclezianus era, with the Roman Empire ruled by two Augusti and two Caesari, who governed four roman prefecture: Praefectura Italiae, the part of Empire which includes Italy,Noricum and the carthaginian north africa.Praefectura Galliae, the part of Empire which includes France, Spain, Portugal, England and Marocco. Praefectura Illyrici, the part of empire which includes the whole balcanic peninsule. Praefectura Orientis, the part of empire which includes Anatolia, Sirya, Palestina and Egypt

The other playable faction in this mod are

Franks
Saxons
Vandals
Goths
Gaeli
Sasanid Empire
Mauri
Huns
(no more senate)

We are not very able modders, but we try to do our best; anyway we tried to make a new type of strategic gameplay, with no more invincible army (no more phalanxes). Be kind with our work ~:)

SPECIAL THANKS TO ARCANI FOR HIS MOD LEGIONARY EAGLE STANDARD !!! :bow:

THE WHOLE MOD WAS MADE IN RTWITALIA FORUM, AND THE WHOLE MOD IS COMPLETELY IN ITALIAN...IF SOMEONE WOULD TRANSLATE THE MOD, HE CAN DO IT FREELY

The mod includes a total conversion of Banners, Standards and Symbols, a complete single player campaign with a new map, 113 new units with a complete system of ui cards and ui cards info

HOW TO DOWNLOAD ?

Great looking mod ~D

I'd love to translate, but my Italian is very poor (even worse than my Latin, which is saying something) and I'm already a translator for the Chronique de la Lune Noire team.

Well done though ~:cheers:

This looks very interesting. I think the map should be bigger to incompase the Sassanids.(and they didint have Arabia BTW)I'd also like to see a version of this mod were its the east and west senerio.

Atheist_Peace
07-16-2005, 21:00
Looks very cool, i think you couldve made the map a little bigger but still, very cool. Do you have any plans of translating it to english soon? If not i will just play it in italian but it would be better in english.

dragases80
07-17-2005, 11:50
Ok i 'll work for english translation...

anyway you can download the mod, so you can tell me what you like and what you dislike

ok ???

hi all !!! ~;)

dragases80
07-17-2005, 11:54
excuse me.... i forgot


the map we have used for this mod is the original one, with some new provinces; we have no permission for using mundus magnus' map , and we had no time to make a new map, but we are creating it now...so there will be a new map (larger map) for Roma Immortalis


Thank You ! :bow:

Atheist_Peace
07-17-2005, 16:26
Alright i will download it, i cant right this minute but definitely today (im in america so big time difference though) and i will give you some good feedback. Also, about the map: You mentioned the mundus magnus map, if you are making your own map, dont extend it to the south at all because it will just create a bunch of territories that AI factions nearby can unhistorically take and gain power. Make sure to extend to the east and extend it up so scotland is there.

Just some suggestions and good luck.

downloaded and installed, i will PM you later with some feedback about the mod.


edit: the campaign does not work, im gonna try to fix it but you guys should see if it is something you did wrong because if it is no one will be able to play


It is a problem with the region Flavia_Caesariensis, I am trying to locate the problem

dragases80
07-17-2005, 20:13
atheist i forgot

to play campaign you have to delete two files in data\world\maps\base .

they are map.rwm and map_heights.hgt (pay attention because there are two files named map_heights ; YOU MUST NOT DELETE map_heights.tga, YOU MUST DELETE map_heights.hgt)

~:cheers:

hi

Ciao

dragases80
07-17-2005, 20:15
it's strange, on the italian forum there were not problems with the campaign...

could it be a language problem ???

Atheist_Peace
07-17-2005, 22:08
I wouldnt think you would need to delete those files to start but i will try it, maybe it is a language thing, i will try to get it working and if not i will wait for the english version.

actually it could be the heights.hgt file, one second and i will tell you if it works

Nope, i just get the same error about the same settlement

Atheist_Peace
07-17-2005, 22:21
Well Custom Battles dont work either, i think it probably is a language thing.

KingJo5
07-17-2005, 23:53
Ciao,
I can help out with any translating, italian is not my first language but i live in a household full of italians and converse in the language everyday,
I can easily translate a lot of the descriptions for the units as long as the work is provided for me, i can work at any time and pace, must be quick though i go to italy soon for a holiday.
Between, i love this mod and think it has the potential to do very well with the english community,
Bravo!!!!

Atheist_Peace
07-18-2005, 00:22
Yes this mod could be very sucessful, definitely post a thread at twcenter.net when you translate it because many there will be interested.

dragases80
07-18-2005, 03:18
Ciao Kingjo


Ok you have my permission to translate (i f you want ~;) )

thank you for the BRAVO !!!

Ciao
I have been playing the mod for most of the night :D
And, i must say i am most impressed with standard of work on offer, i love this period of history as being one of my favorite times in the Roman Empire,
The skins are great, and this mod has the potential to be up there with the hosted mods out there.
I have began to translate a lot of the descriptions however this is a lot of work,
I have seen the italian community do very well, but i cant help but think that there is a lack of communications, this mod has the qaulity to be in the hosted mods section,
If so, i offer my serivces to your team, i have 5 more days till i tour italy, so i eagerly await news, i suggest you speak to the admin here to host your mod, then that would give me better communications with yourself and the english speaking community, i can skin and script, and there are many imporvements i can suggest to you,
allora, ora devo andare dormire, ho giocato il tuo MOD tutta la notte !!!
Buonafortuna!

Hey guys-

I am, more or less, unofficially, the final proofreading english guy for this mod. I have had no part in development, I have just recently signed onto the team. That, actually, has yet to come to pass.

Only recently starting to play this mod, I ask the question: Why do the Northern Europeans (and England) get so screwed with starting land masses? It is one thing to start a little ragged, quite another to fight from Northern England against an empire that controls all of Western Europe. Any one else think that scaling back the giant empires of the south is a good idea? Or adding two more factions, one that starts in the Nile Delta, one in the (present day) French Alps?

Just wonderin . . .

Mister Bilzor

07-23-2005, 18:56
hi mr bilzor.

the regions represents the situation of 306.

i invite you to play with gallia faction and set the level vh/h.
i'm sure you will change your opinion.

I really like trhis mod! The AI is good(smart) during battles. the battles are well done with the settings on huge ...lots of death screams, lol.I loved how my 600+Sarmation cavalry nobles made a wave of bending infantry from a charge. Just something I noticed and surprised me thus far is, because my cavalry archers are useless vs goth infantry ... I counter them with my Sarmation infantry They appear as good if not better Than the Goths infantry. I know the Goth heavy infantry,Huskles I think they were called, were the anti archer of the dark ages.But my Sarmation infantry seems to be a very potent part of their army. Is this historically based? I'm very curious and doing a little research on the Dark Age Sarmation infanrty to get some info. thanks.

dragases80
07-27-2005, 04:03
Hi Riothamus

There are many things in the mod that are not so historically correct...
i hope you will help us to make better Roma Immortalis, because we are going to release an add-on for the mod, with more features, more units and a new balancing unit engine !

if you want, you can help us, and you are welcome in the Roma Immortalis Team ~:cheers:

the add-on will be completely in ENGLISH

when the translation will be ready, we will send it to Mr. Bilzor to correct the text

ok...

anyway a new project will come as soon as possible...

RENOVATIO IMPERII ... a project that will take you to Justinian era, with the europe governed by romano-barbaric kingdoms, with a new map and more new units


ok bye... see you soon !

07-27-2005, 20:53
ave barbari

i'm trying to enlarge the map to the north (caledonia, scandinavia), and to the east ('til indo river).
the west and the south border will be the same.
ok?

there are little problems with the graphic in the coasts. but we'are trying to resolve them in the italian forum.

thanks.

Hi guys ! this is a great mod really, i've downloaded it yesteday and played some custom battles and some turns in the campaign (as gallic player ..)

one suggestion ... in my opinion the units are too fast during the battles, i think that it isn't real to have hundreds of men that run all over the battlefield at high speed ...

anyway if you like i can help you in developing the next release of your mod, i'm the creator of Fall of Rome mod for MTW-VI (from 280 to 600ad), and i'm developing the METW mod for MTW-VI with other mates ...

cheers

ps. my language is italian ...

Semproniosabino
07-28-2005, 13:59
hi, maximus.

if you think that the units are too fast:

open the file data/descr_battle_map_movement_modifiers.

now put this:

climate default

grass_short 0.8
grass_long 0.8
sand 0.8
rock 0.8
forest_dense 0.7
scrub_dense 0.8
swamp 0.8
mud 0.8
mud_road 0.8
stone_road 1.0
water 0.6
ice 0.6
snow 0.7


i recommend to put 1.0 for stone road and the same value for similar surfaces (ex. mud and mud road).

excuse my poor english but i'm italian (close to rome), where are you from?

see you.

dragases80
07-28-2005, 15:37

07-29-2005, 20:56
yes i did....

with an english version. then i bought an italian version and the mod wont work! maybe i must to try the 3.0 version?

what i think?

hispanico! hispanico! hispanico!

(where are you from ?).

bye.

maximus decimus meridius
07-30-2005, 01:17
ok.

install your copy of MTV-VI , upgrade it to with 2.01 patch, then install 3.0 release of Fall of Rome.

after this, copy all the files from loc/eng folder to loc/italian folder .... and voilà

~:cheers:

anyway the mod is in english ...

i'll release a new 3.1 version (with a self installing .exe file) asap.

another thing, i'd like to mod Barbarian Invasion" when it will be released, in order to make a REALLY historical accurate late roman/early byzantine game, this could interest you ? let me know what do you think.

i live near milan

Interesting mod lads, good battles and a good challenge, i'm playing as the saxons at the mo and enjoyed mopping up the Roman forces in Britain when the Vandals attacked me in force in my provinces in North Germany. A very good mod indeed ~:cheers:

07-31-2005, 23:23
thank you.

we are working hard for the add-on.

there will be new units and a better gameplay for the barbarian factions, saxons in primis.

Semproniosabino.

thanks.

i've a little suggestion about the next version, i noticed that the roman cavalry (both the vexillationes comitatenses and the scholae) don't use javelins, they are only shock cavalry. but as you know the late roman cavalry, both light and heavy (like the goths and the vandals), relied on "hit and run" tactics throwing their javelins, just like the Alans or the Huns.
the only shock cavalry in late Roman army were the catafractarii and clibanarii modelled on the persian and sarmatian cavalry.
This could be an interesting modification for the next release of the mod.

have you considered also to put the dalmatian and Mauri cavalry and the lanciarii infantry regiments?

bye
max

~:)

Riothamus
08-06-2005, 17:39
great suggestion Max. Interestingly I read up on the Alans and their heavy cavalry shock tactics. One tactic seems to have been to charge into the enemy formation and then withdraw to intice the enemy to pursue as if they were fleeing.Then with an army in waiting of missles,darts ,ect.... cut down the pursuing enemy.(battle of Charlon) I guess they would need to be extremely disciplined to pull it off but to go with your point,a hit and run tactic but with shock cavalry.

Semproniosabino
08-06-2005, 21:49
thanks for the suggestions.

caio gracco is completing the list of units. we are following every suggestions.

now i'm only making the new map, so i can't reply about the military side.

we work separately til the test. so we can go faster.

the team is doing the traslation too, but is a lot of work.

bye.

Semproniosabino
08-13-2005, 15:35
ave barbari.

we are at 50% of the work.

the restyling and the add-on of unit is at 70%, for the moment caio gracco is in holyday, but i think that the work will be done very soon.

the new map is at good point, the new areas, ground types, climates, features are ok. now i'm making the mountains. then we will add new territories.

after the rebalancing of the gameplay the game will be ready.

marcus felix and the new entry ettore, are working on the historical informations, text editing and english traslation too.

thanks and excuse my very bad english.

("The 3rd option is to host the mod on TWC" Abokasee) Have to agree with Abokasee, hosting on TWC would be a good idea or hosting at the Org or 3D Downloads. Like the game.

The campaign doesn' t work . It's a pity because the mod could be very cool. THe usual Italians, they come up with a good idea, but they don't finish their work! ~:cool:

Caius Graccus

Dear Henrylet

to play campaign you have to delete two files in data\world\maps\base .

they are map.rwm and map_heights.hgt (pay attention because there are two files named map_heights ; YOU MUST NOT DELETE map_heights.tga, YOU MUST DELETE map_heights.hgt)

ok ?

if you want the english version you can download from

http://www.twcenter.net/downloads/db/?act=download&id=648&agree=yes

...

remember ... as someone said...

italians do it better !!!

~:cheers:

Hello and thank you for this mod!

I can't play the quick battles on this mod!

I have done a clean RTW install w/version 1.1.& 1.2 patches

Installed RI 1.0 and the 1.1 patch, deleted the proper files and did the english install.

Everything else works molto bene!

Can anyone help?

sorry vlad, but convert the map for the 1.3 is a lot of work!.

i'm trying to do it now, but i need to adjust the different scripts and convert the tga files in hgt and adapt the heights.... it's a hard work!!! but i think it's possible!
at the moment i'm working on the 1.4 version... but i think i can't make the map works in short time!

Hello!

Thank you for this mod, I appreciate it.

The 4 prefecturas are not showing however!

Is this something to be fixed in the future?

10-26-2005, 22:34
Hi Drag,

Yes I can.

In the previous version of RTW: Dio. to whomever, you have prefectures that covered wide areas on the campaign map, Ex. Praefectura Orientalis was Greece, Turkey, Yugoslavia, Israel, Syria, etc.

When I downloaded the NEW version of your mod, the Large area Praefectura's are not showing covering large areas on the campaign map, they are only shown in Italy!
P. Orientalis isn't showing at all on the campaign map!!!!

That's what I mean,

Grazzi, Signiore.

hi hellas!

i think that can be two causes for your problem.
the first: you have not installed the mod correctly. try to reinstall the tree parts (and the patches, of course).
the second: you do not have chosen the provincial campaign but the imperial campaign.

the new version of the mod works as provincial campaign!~:)

ciao!~D

hellas1
10-27-2005, 04:38
Hi Draeg,

Si signiore, you're right I chose the imperial campaign, not the provincial.

They ARE there, sorry. My mistake.

Again, grazzi and I await any further patches that are coming from your team if any!

Ciao! Molte Bene, Modification signiores, grazzi.
