PATCH 0.4 CHANGES/ADDITIONS
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Installation
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE: make sure any previous versions of Dux mod are inactive/disabled before you install this mod.
1 : Run the installer file contained within the zip file
2 : When asked to specify the desired location where the mod will be installed in, select you MTW-VI main folder
(this is usually located in the the following path- C:\Program Files\Total War\Medieval - Total War)
3 : Once the installation has finished, open the MTW - VI folder and run the modswitcher file named JSGME .exe
4 : Using this program, switch "DUX" over to the "enabled mods" side. This process will take approximately 2-3 minutes (do not worry if the program temporarily says its not responding, just be patient)
5 : Now you are ready to play!. You can switch back to regular vi at any point by moving DUX back to the "available mods" side using the mod switcher. Just remember to restart the game after you have done so.
Enjoy ;)
===============================================================================================
Main features
===============================================================================================
- New set of balanced stats and a new pricing system for all units
- 13 New factions (the mod is set in the high medieaval period) all with their own unique units and style of warfare:
The Bohemians
The Bulgarians
The Crusader States
The Cumans
The Ilkhanate
The Georgians
The Latin States
The Novgorodians
The Portuguese
The Scots
The Swedish
The Teutonic Knights
The Venetians (representing with a few extra units The Genoese as well)
- 70+ new units including new additions to the original VI factions and exciting changes to standard units
- The mod can be easily enabled and disabled using the Generic Mod Enabler program by JoneSoft. Therefore a second full install of MTW-VI is NOT required :)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Technical Issues
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A so far un-fixable bug is present in the mod which will cause the game to CTD if units with certain body types
are in an army which is using one of the new faction colours other than its own. To avoid this crash is it reccomended
that all players stick with the default colour of the faction they have chosen or to use one of the colours from the
original selection of VI factions.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gameplay Changes
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A number of minor changes have been made to positively effect the balance of the stats.Amongst these,
Order Foot knights and Danish dismounted nobles are now slightly more expensive and generic archers have
been given less ammunition in order to promote the use of the higher grade archer units.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
