The mod you have made thus far is amazing. Though I think the evil factions especially Morder need their morale a little higher as men, Dwarves and especially the Elves totally destroy them! Not even mass numbers make a difference ~D
Oh and whoever made the battle maps is a genius, they are truely amazing as are the units. Well lads, spledid work
More units we can't use at the moment (all because they are sharing a bif folder with a facshield unit)
Harad skirm
HaradSpears
EreborGuard (aka golden dwarf)
PYJ
all download links at ME-TW forum are non-functional,
the Demonoid/torrent site is refusing new registrations
please advise where to grab a copy
we can put it into the Org's downloads for you
(that way there is ALWAYS going to be a functional download available for you)
cheers,
B.
I was wondering, since I am new to the org and a big fand of LOTR where I can download ME: TW at.
General TIldor.
a current copy resides in the large file upload directory here
we cannot download from that directory
i will be moving it (this coming weekend) to somewhere we can download it from
cheers,
B.

Most of the stuff for the campaign is ready for a beta(map, pieces, interface, sounds and musics,portraits,pictures for buildings, descriptions for units, buildings and campaign, and many other things...).
We are currently making the techtree for each factions, then i suppose we will release a new beta with the campaign. ~:cheers:
Cheers to that!
~:cheers:
Cool! Hope to see it soon. Take care. ~:)Quote:

i downloaded this mod yesterday and i have to say wow its given me a whole new reason to play mtw so thx guys hope the SP is done soon i cant wit to kick some isengard ass :duel: :charge:
I can't get the mod to work... Is it because I have already installed XL? METW must be installed only over MTW:VI?
Please help, I want to try it!! :help: :help:
A clean install of Medieval total war + Viking Invasion is required before installing metw.
um how come the rtw guys get a campaign and mtw doesnt ~:confused: ~:mecry: im just wondering im not trying to be pushy i know these things take time im really just being nosy
The campaign in mtw in fact is ready, but many pics for building are missing and a specific techtree for every faction is missing.
If you are looking for informations about the progress, i can give you a link for an early stage of the campaign beta, but don't expect to play a lot with it.
If you look carefully, the campaign for rome is far from being perfect (even if it is already awesome) and complete, encaitar is working hard on it.
The campaign map could have been completed sooner with more people (it is sad when important members can't stick anymore with a project) or if i had spent my time on it rather than the battlemaps and units animations. A matter of choice and priority.
thx for the info i guess i just got a little jealous sine i cant play rtw on my pc p4 1.5 nvidia geforce 2 64 mb 256 ram so yah i suck i no oh well i have about another $75 to go before i can upgrade my card and then get the game :bigcry: :computer: :sad:
:help: pleaseee..........
I can't get the mod to work.... I do a fresh install of MTW:VI, I then install beta 7.1 but I get a "cannot read" message.... What am I dong wrong?

The message he has on the METW forum (linked above) suggests that the mod is done for the moment. He said that he's lost interest and may or may not pick it up again later. So, this really could be the last release if nobody comes back to it. He did say that if anybody wanted to work on it further they could get in touch with him if they needed his help. See the link above for the whole message.
So it would seem, though it is a shame, I´ve not seen such beautiful units before, from what I´ve seen so far, they even look better than the vanilla ones, their weapons and shields don´t seem hover in front of them. And am I wrong or are they really depicted from eight angles instead of only four?
By the way, even though I´ve downloaded the campaign 0.7 I can´t start it, it won´t show in the campaign selection screen. It seems strange, since for custom battles an option saying 3rd age appears.
For installing metw:
1- Medieval Total war & Viking invasion addon.
2- Metw 7.0 -> MetwBeta7.0.exe
3- (Campaign) Metw 7.0a -> Metw Campmap beta7.0a.exe
4- Patch to 7.1a -> Metw patch 7.0 to 7.1a (medieval).exe
5- The compressed files -> metw2.rar
6- Some more files in your mtw root folder -> metw.rar
Indeed this release is the latest release, and maybe it is the last release (well before, i was absolutely sure that it would be the last one because i thought first that not many people were still interested about this mod.)
Finally, i can see there is still some people who are interested about this mod, i don't think i will play the mod once finished (if it get finished) but i could help to finish the campaign and make a big install (the current one is a bit tricky :/ i guess i was lazy).
Maximus (from fall of rome mod) did a good job so far, first it was decided to make only the beta7.0 (custom battle) and finally we continued with the campaign and now i think it would not be fair to ask him more help again.
I got some pm's from people proposing their help, i will be glad to continue this mod with fellow modders !
Cheers - Icare
I got the campaign to work, though the last files in metw.rar are still missing, the download in the metw forum didn´t work. [edit] Now they work, I´ll still have to install them. Thank you for updating the DL link. The size of 27kb is correct?[/edit] The campaign map is truly beautiful, though it´s kind of hard to play, completely without descriptions of what building does what and lacking diplomats and princesses to spy the land.
In fact wizards will be acting like priest, they will be able to bring alliance, spy and the preaching thing will act as bringing corruption or not.
A lot of people care about this mod.
The unit art is amazing....
Please, I hope that this mod can be worked on some more...
And one single large, self-installer for the mod would be very, very helpful...
Cheers!
Indeed, they look even better than the vanilla units. I´d kill for having the artistic talent to make those.
I noticed some problems with Isengard, however. Sometimes custom battles will ctd when Isengard units take part and there´s something wrong with the pike unit, once they move they don´t resume their formation but run wildly all over the place.
I just love this mod Icare. It will stay with me for many many years if fully developed. ~:cheers:
Icare,
The work you and your team have done so far is simply amazing! I think I'm like a lot of people who would be thrilled if the mod could be even more fully realized, but unfortunately don't have the modding skills themselves to actually do the work. I'm not sure what we could do to help- Play-balancing? Beta Testing? Tweaking things on the campaign map? Maybe it would help if you spell out, just generally, what still needs to be done.
It would be a shame to leave such incredible work unfinished, but I completely understand your position; 2 plus years is quite a time commitment to anything, much less a game (for instance it's longer than I lasted in college ~:) )
Thank you for the brilliant work you have done so far, and for offering to help others who could guide it towards completion.
I for one will be hoping for that eventual day with great anticipation !!!!!! This mod has such tremendous potential !!!!!
