I can't wait for your final release of this mod

The new trade goods sound particulary cool, anything that makes this mod feel more neapoleonic, and not just Medival with a napoleonic shell is welcome.


Thanks for sticking with this mod guys it looks brilliant so far http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...icons/wave.gif

Your quite welcome Brother D. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...ns/biggrin.gif I cannot tell you how many Mods have fell by the wayside due to half hearted commitments and lack of communication. The Lords are trying to do the best job possible in offering you a quality Mod. Lord Krazy and Lord Black Adder have broken new ground in unit animations and have brought Movable ArtilleryWhen the doubters said it could not be done and more is to come when the people who have created the very game we love to play and Mod offer there praises that says alot http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/pat.gif With the time we had to wait for VI to be released and then to acclimate to the new setup I can honestly say things are on track and progressing forward. And to you and all our supporters We The Lords Thank You for your patience in the Mods development. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...ns/biggrin.gif

Just as well you sent them. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...icons/idea.gif


I will make several copies and cd's
then I'll send them straight away.

If they were lost I would cry as much as you
my friend. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/pat.gif

Now VI is here they will
be rampaging in many hard disks soon I hope.
I'm looking forward to the ECW mod very much.

Just a quick update on the Napoleonic Mod Campaign , The Campaign as a whole is slowly coming together, we are learning to take advantage of the new features offered to us in VI and this will make the campaign have a good overall Napoleonic feel to it . New trade goods are being added. The portraits are all being "Nappified" http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...ns/biggrin.gif and Key players of the Napoleonic era are going to have a portrait to match there name. More to come soon http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...icons/wave.gif

Just a quick question. On the Strategic map, will there be new agents and ships for the Napoleonic period? And have you got all new buildings for the tech tree as well?

Cheers,

Derfel

Greetings Bro. D Our goal is to have everything we can change to have a Napoleonic look and feel to it I can say Yes to the Ships and Agents/Pieces these will be changed to reflect the era, as to the buildings we have found some good models. Lord Le Bob is doing an excellent job in working up a new tech tree. Thanks for your continued interest and support http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...ns/biggrin.gif

I guess with v1.8 that will work with VI, correct?
Right well, this mod still isnt getting the popularity in the lobby it deserves. Trying desperately to get more people to play but alas i lack the advertising capabilities. Hopefully when i get my new tenki (name is changed for mtw) site up ill advertise it there.

TenkiSoratoti

I love playing your mod . I would be happy to help in
any way i can ( map making what ever)

If you want to help them Come and play in the lobby you would be expanding the nap mod empire in the lobby and would be having great fun at the same time. Open up a scourging volley of fire then lead a mountanous bayonet charge At the moment Nap mod battles have to be arranged because there simply arnt enough people who play so if you wanna play someone contact me or Lord Uxbridge:
ohoward@hotmail.com - Lord Uxbridge
Tenkisoratoti@hotmail.com - Me

Sure GPMB we could always use extra help as far as battle maps that would Lord LeBob's area, did you have a specific battle for the period in mind? We appreciate the offer I will be in touch http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...icons/wave.gif TENKII hereby appoint you the Nap. Mods official PR Man http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...ns/biggrin.gif Thank you for your efforts in spreading the word on the Nap. Mod it is greatly appreciated http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/pat.gif

Cool Cool, im feebily trying to build a dedicated fan site of it, but seeing as im kind of a novice to Dreamweaver MX its taking me ages.

Press Release man hmmm, we musnt forget the efforts of Lord Uxbridge who is essentially the brains behind the history part and also a formidable foe on the field of battle.

Um.... and there is just one other thing http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...cons/smile.gif Could you possibly please give us a rough date of when the next unit beta is going to be released to the masses?

Quick question (I know another one)

You wouldn't happen to have any idea yet how big the final file will be to download?

It's just that i am on a 56k modem, and I'd hate to not be able to get this mod if it turns out to be HUGE or something.

Tenkisora, I will be back to playing Nap Mod Mp as soon as my exams are done and I don't have to waste valuable MP time revising. Don't give up hope, I will always be willing to play it.

Well I had some things to deal with recently
that left LBA working on his own.
This means we won't have another unit release
for a week or so as alot of files have to be
sorted still.

As for the masses , well I have a load of
bmps waiting to be turned into bifs
and untill then I don't have them either. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...icons/wink.gif

You'd be surprised how quick the masses
(all 12 of you) http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...ns/biggrin.gif
get the files after we finish them.
On second toughts remember the
guards that became horses and the cav that
went wierd when they charged and so on
just goes to show. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...ns/biggrin.gif

When we have them you will have them very soon after. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...ns/biggrin.gif

In a week or so as I said we should be able to give you something more. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...ns/biggrin.gif

Well it's already big so I can only assume
it will be much bigger.

We will break into parts for people like us. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...ns/biggrin.gif
I have to have all the files
to tell you how big it's going to be.
However I don't have all the files.
Some have not been made yet.

Hi,

I have been monitoring your mod for some time now, ever since I first stumbled across it. I have eagerly downloaded every version up to 1.7, and I just couldn't help but offer a few words of encouragement.

I love your mod. You have all done a fabulous job creating it. I actually play it in preference to the original Medieval game. Don't get me wrong, Medieval is quite a good game. But I guess it was the game we had to have before Rome : Total War.

But seriously, back to your mod. It is brilliant, and I can't wait to get hold of the completed version.

What would be heaven? Napoleon: Total War using the Rome:Total War game engine

Keep up the good work. People like you extend the pleasure that we get out of games, and give us much more enjoyment from them.

regards

Hi, I have been in awe of your mod for a while lord krazy and co, but I cant play it cause I have VTW installed. When will a download be ready for nap mod on VTW?

People like you make it more worthwhile
for the guys that have commited their time
and energy to try and add to the enjoyment
of this game. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/pat.gif

Thank you for your support

Oh so I can still play 1.7 YAY

To GreasePaintMonkeyBrains

You defenetely can help I was making some historical battles (Marengo) but since I worked on the tech tree, the music, and other stuff I let this down a little....
So here are something you could help with. Maybe you could lead in the development of some historical campaign. Starting maybe with the italian campaign (first Napoleon campaign)...I can help with the modding and finding some info.

To all, Check the Napoleon mod web site at http://napoleontotalwar.tripod.com
What can you find there, Starting tomorrow, you will have an update on where does the mod stand, some screenshots and maybe more if I have time.

The mod is progressing well as LOS mentioned. The music is done and will be probably a 7 Meg file (mp3) that will need to be changed into wav (wav are way to big to be downloaded).

If you have any oilpainting images of units please let us know and we will see if we could use them.

Thanks for your interest.

Lord Le Bob

22 you can still enjoy the Unit Betas by simply doing another install of MTW alone just change the name of the new MTW folder when prompted and your on your way http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...ns/biggrin.gif

Heya Lords, just a quick question:

Can I use those units in VI if I insert manually the appropriate entries for the respective files? Names, descriptions, deadpage, of course the Unitprod... am I missing something?

I used to do that alot in MTW but with VI I am kinda lost and I'd appreciate any help. Are there any other txts besides the above three in which I have to add something?

Becuase I've gone through the whole thing and I got the message "unknown Unit in column 2 row 183" - which is actually the first of the custom units I added.

Am I doing something wrong? bifs and txts are all in the appropriate folders.

Ros you got the idea. The error sounds like
you have messed up the prod11.

Have you just added the lines from the mtw prod11
to the VI prod11? If so this will happen.

If you can be bothered you will have to
add the units youself to the prod11.
i.e copy existing unit from VI prod11
add edit the name and add the other entries.

It's what I'm doing right now http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...ns/biggrin.gif

If you wish to do it also I won't mind.
I would like to see a few other versions
from other people anyway.

I figured it out at last... and it's a bloody shetload of work... http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/eek.gif http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/eek.gif http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/eek.gif

Hi. I just downloaded your superlative Mod, and I am really enjoying it. Your dedication and commitment shines through in the gameplay and presentation.
Anyway, I wonder if you can help me. One of the things I was excited about was the new moveable cannon. Unfortunately, when I take one in battle it only comes with 2 crewman, so it can't fire because there are 'not enough crewmen'. Also, they can't move. Is this a bug, or am I just being stupid? Thanks for any help http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...ns/biggrin.gif
(BTW, could you include Horatio Hornblower as a character in the campaign, maybe? http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...icons/wink.gif )

I have done a fair bit of troop stats balancing by now. The Crusaders_Prod_Units11.txt and the Projectiles.txt have been sent to the other Lords with the modified values. They should be available anytime now.

Cavalry and inf stats are very well balanced now. Am working on arty. Next release soon.

-Cuirassier

I think hornblower is fictional.
You have the mod then come and play online, playing the AI is rather dull as they can beaten very easily. Arrange with a friend or something to play some games. Im always willing after 7:00pm english time.

Yes and get more people and the learn the way of the bayonet and muzzle
