this is where you can get them
sorry for the vauge explanation.
I was in a hurry at the time http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...cons/smile.gif
LK
can`t find the second file
ok sorry found it great unit i'm looking forward to see more of them
Thank you,
however with the release of TW3 been romoured
for the final quater of 2003, it would be foolish
of us to continue making Roman units.We will
finish the ones we started but it would be futile
to compete with the pros.This is not our objective.
ECW and Napoleonic units will mostlikely be our
next main project.
For me this is the most frustrating part of modding.
Not knowing if your work will get binned before
it sees the light of day http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...cons/frown.gif
I don't want to be around when LBA hears of this http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...cons/mecry.gif

Bah To TW3, I may have to cancel Path to Dark Ages. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/mad.gif
Lord Krazy - "however with the release of TW3 been romoured

It's probably better to wait and see what Rome:TW covers before you lose heart completely. If the European sites are correct and TW3 is fully 3D then modding may be driven back to tinkering at the edges and the freedom that is available with MTW could be an asset.
"ECW and Napoleonic units will mostlikely be our

I've started work on some 30YW/ECW Bifs, let me know if I can help. Below are some renders that I was going to replace the peasant to cover artillery, lighter pikemen, lighter halberdiers and umm... peasants http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...cons/smile.gif I was going to try using hats, helmets, caps as shields for greater variety.
Cheers

do you planing do make a lord of the rings mod, too??
i would be very cool to see orks und elves fighting each other anbd i thnik that many wants to play a lotr mod
I think you guys should finish what you started and don't loose heart. Anything could happen between now and Game release. I could use some help on my Patrician project since its already out and folks are actualy playing it. including me. My Barbarians could use some units and I could use some help with the unitprod11 file. I would like to make the Roman units exclusive for the Romans and Barbarian units exclusive to barbarians except the ubii cav i just created for the update. You guys do great work with those units, Dont let anyone discourage you. MTW still has lots to offer to us who enjoy moding it.Quote:

I'v not played your mod yet http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...cons/frown.gif
For one reason only, I'v not been
in the country for a couple of weeks http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...ns/biggrin.gif
Thanks for the kind word.
It not a case of us being discouraged,
it's more a case of being practical.
We have many projects to choose from.
All worthy of attention IMO http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...ns/biggrin.gif
It's just that we don't want to do something
CA is doing.
A: it wont be as good
B: it would take as long nearly, to complete.
We will finish the units we started
and a barbarian for you http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...ns/biggrin.gif
but I can't see us doing all the things we intended.
We shall wait and see how things pan out.

RomanCav is coming to light soon
LBA
I've been waiting for this mod since last year. When are you guys releasing it ?
Path to the Dark Ages is pretty much dead now for the following reasons :-
-I'm not going to compete with CA when it's clear they'll win by miles.
-It will take a long time to get it to the level I want it to be for release, by then RTW will be a few monthes or weeks away.
-Without LK making units I'd fall VERY short of the goal.
That's about all I can think of why there's not much point continuing with the MOD, rest assured I'll look into doing something else non-roman related so that I can relax through the process without having to worry about RTW coming out soon dimming interest in the MOD.
Is the Roman Mod buried forever? http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...cons/mecry.gif
I´d like your legionary unit, i have: roman.bif, roman_H.bif, and 2 files called romanlegion.bif. However i haven´t the txt files needed. Please, can you release this txt files?. Al least i´d like to complete this unit. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...cons/smile.gif
oh man - i used to be interested in rome, but the interest slowly took the backburner as i got older, giving way to the medieval and pre/post world war 2 periods
this week, i rented I claudius and am HOOKED - i love movies that can re-juvinate old interests
if anyone here hasnt seen it it is a MUST. the story isnt true, but it helps the lay student understand the julio-claudian line perfectly - and that line can be very confusing
i cant wait for RTW

You can get them in the same place
as the bifs.
Wellington has agreeded to do the
weapons coords http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...ns/biggrin.gif
and add some weapons.
This is not a good thing,
it's much better http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...ns/biggrin.gif
He's the best at this I'v seen so far,
including CA.He knows his job and enjoys it
so when he has done his thing We'll release
it.

Thanx, Lord Krazy. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...cons/smile.gif
Hi Guys,
Just to confirm I shall be doing the final positioning for The Lords (LK/LBA/myself/others) New Roman Units. I was hoping to start work on these some days ago but I'm quite involved with the LMM project at present and want to ensure our group has some 'half working utility' that can be tested whilst I take a reast for coding.
To LK and LBA - my apologies it's taking so long for me to start on these. Anyway this is what I'm anticipating doing with the New Roman Units -
Era's
=====
Provide Roman Units for two distinct era's -
a) Camillan/Polybian era (circa 200BC - Hannibal!http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...icons/wink.gif
b) Republican era (circa 50BC to 100AD - Julius Ceaser)
The plates I have been passed by LK/LBA are excellent for providing various units based upon these 2 era's. The units possess helmets, breastplates and greaves which is great because I am anticipating producing 3 distinct plates (BIF's) from this one plate. This is also necessary as whilst the plates have a variety of actions associated with the images there is not a great deal of room for shields/weapons. Does'nt matter - the users can install whatever plates/units they wish on a mix and match basis.
Anticipated units are -
Camillan/Polybian Romans
------------------------
Triarii - Veteran Heavy infantry shield/sword/long spear
Principes - Heavy infantry shield/sword/pilum
Hastatii - Medium infantry shield/sword/pilum
Velites - light infantry round shield/sword/javelins
Possibly also a couple of Italian "Roman Allies" based on the Velites. For details/pictures of these types check the link -
http://www.homeaddy.fsbusiness.co.uk/polybian.htm
Republigan Romans
-----------------
Not fully decided on these yet. Different shields of course and no long spears. Maybe 2/3 different types based on similar shields designs together with allies (lot's more potential for Roman allied city states).
Conclusion
----------
How long before I start this. Hard to say. Maybe another week now but I'll update LK when I start and also after each each plate (2/3 plates maybe?) is finished.
Don't blame LK/LBA - they are waiting on me now http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...cons/frown.gif

Has anyone succeeded in creating chariots and or elephants as mounts yet ?
Not really feasible inMTW.Quote:

Quick question - is anyone really (and I mean REALLY) interested in a full set of Roman units for MTW, or have people lost some interest in this ROman stuff and are now just waiting for RTW to arrive ?
(BTW: By a 'full set' this would mean replacing several of the BIFs - hence losing some MTW units if you wished to install such a set).

The first interested guy. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...cons/smile.gifQuote:
