Perfect, i found a free 5g uploader.
My question to you guys is: Does everyone have BI? this way, i can post my RTW BI.exe version...it has much more things then the vanilla RTW and adds to the experience, dont worry its still RTW v1.5.
The 5g uploader didnt work, and Tosa says it is unnecasary.
Instead, i am using the Org.'s uploader.
Will edit this post shortly to post the link (if Tosa is on).
Instructions (though no needed) are in the zipped folder, just make sure you unzip it before using the contents. Also, the script is already generated, so do not generate a new script.
We can begin when everyone is ready!
Just post saying "ready" or something. Turn will start with the Julii, then Brutii, then Scipii, then Senate. Voting can occur anytime inbetween, but it is prefered we discuss laws on my turn.
There are no current offices.
Read posts above thouroughly one last time to understand the rules.
There will be 3 threads (minimum) in which we will post. OOC, Senate, and Campaign. No one is to post in the Mandates of the Republic thread, but it is expected to check it regularly as it holds orders and laws.
HERE IS THE LINK!!!
Now, we can begin when everyone posts they have it working :yes:
Also, make sure you go over these, this will be the rules for the first few turns:
Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
Grr I have CTD
Hmm i thought someone might, based on the problems you have had before you might want to re-install again. I tried all the files myself and they work fine.
Also, make sure you patch up to v1.5 (not 1.6) before adding these files.
Anyone else?
Do you guys stil want to play?? I saw one of you (no naming) online, PMed you, but you didnt reply...I guess I can find new people if you guys dont want to play...
I assure you, if I can get it working then I am in. I don't want to hold ou up though.
Ha! I know what I did. When I put the map in that zip folder, I didnt include some sm_faction stuff.
So, everything in that folder, put all of it into your data folder (even the map).
Im then going to give you the download link to the map, you can then download it and put all that stuff in your data folder.
Here it is (this is mundus magnus)
So, when you put in the Map, if it says replace then click yes. It is just replacing the map info i gave you.
Guide:
Download "The Glory of Rome" zip
Place contents of data folder into /data folder
download mundus magnus from link above
follow instructions (put all contents into data folder basically)
done!
We may need to find a replacement for Elite though, he has exams (he PMed me) and cant devote time.
I should have time to play if this sorts out the problem but otherwise I'm too busy to start from scratch, downloading now.
edit:still wont start up game, count me out.
:laugh4::laugh4::laugh4::laugh4::laugh4::laugh4::laugh4:
Found it!!! And, yes, I tested it...it works gauruntee!!!
open up export_descr_advice
press ctrl-f (to find)
type in descr_script
erase the line:
script scripts\show_me\descr_script.txt
Hahaha! it was a script from my older games that i forgot to take out!
elite, if you can play, this fixes it. I tried it all, provincial works, hotseat script works, its all good! we can play!
yes I have it working, shall I play my first turn?
Yes, Julii go first. Make sure you read the rules for the first few turns, seeing as we have no offices yet.
For all:
-Elite Ferret as the Julii
-HannibalBarc as the Brutii
-The Wandering Scholar as the Scipii
Turn order. Make sure to post in the Game thread for your turns. First post has examples.
You can now ALL post in the Senate thread. We will be devising rules for our Republic.
Ill make the OOC thread.
Remeber, check the Mandates thread constantly, it hold all of our rules and orders.
okay read up on first turn rules and am playing now, shall I set the campaign difficulty to VH/VH? Also what shall I upload the quicksave as? GoR-1-Brutii?
I prefer Vh/h considering battle difficulty just effects enemy morale. +4 H, +8 VH.Quote:

Zim, when you recieve it, when you upload it it will be GoR -1 -Scipii
TWS, same for you, except GoR -1 -Senate
It will continue from their, the numbers being current turn.
okay I have begun, military repot will be posted in campaign thread shortly.
Hold your horses there Elite, i may have to change something. I went through the turns, and it skips the senate. Although I dont really need to play...just dont post your turn yet.
save for Brutii (didn't know where to post this): http://www.totalwar.org/patrons/pbm/GoR-1-Brutii.rar
edit: oops just saw your post, I'll have a look on mine, don't forget to keep running the script.
edit2: yes it skips the senate for me as well.
Maybe we need to unlock the senate in descr_strat.
Im glad its working! If worst comes to worst, i wont play but ill still be here.
Also, if i cant get it, i will contact mydraal. He created it.
Hmmm odd.
I started a campaign as the Senate this time. It skipped over the Julii, went to brutii, went to scipii, went to julii, went to julii again, then brutii, then scipii...
Ill contact mydraal he will know what to do.
Also, i think our best bet would be to nuetralize the senate if we cant get this working. DONT WORRY ILL TEST IT FIRST :yes:
Contacted him. Will see what he says. Like i said, if worst comes to worst we can neutralize the senate.
We will just neutralize the Senate.
This means we wont have map information of each other, so gift each other map information and place spys in allied buildings (Quaestors will be using spies to see city reports anyway)\
To get rid of em, go to data/world/maps/campaign/mundus_magnus/descr_strat.
Under all 3 roman factions, it says superfaction romans_senate, get rid of it.
There you have it! Easy, no CTD's...elite just restart your turn :yes:
I tested it too dont worry :laugh4:
EDIT: Elite, and others, all links are to be put in the campaign thread.
Also, edit your preferences file.
in the preference file there is a line that says "edit_settlementnames: false"
just change it to "true"
then, we can rename our conquered cities to our benifit.
I have it working.

Sorry everyone, I'm still having some download problems here in the place I'm housesitting, and won't be able to access my wireless for a while when I get back tomorrow. I will be able to download everything the slow way, with dial-up, tomorrow.
I don't want to hold anyone up, so if you find someone who wants to play and can do so now, I won't mind. :yes:
its fine zim. we can wait a little longer :laugh4:
TWS, did you neutralzie the senate?
I took off senate superfaction line if that is what you meant :P
Yep, now we can use all of them. I am also creating an OOC thread, please use that for further talk (its more organized with the GoR in front :2thumbsup:)
Sorry everyone. I'm still having trouble downloading the map (gets about halfway through and quits). I don't know why, it's a fraction of the size of some of the mods I've downloaded. :sweatdrop: As if things weren't bad enough, my keyboard seems to have been infested with ants :furious3: , even thought I keep it clean. Think I'll just buy pitch it and buy a new one.
It might be ebst to find a new Brutii player. :shame:
Darn...
All romans, we must recruit the brutii!!!
Post advertisements
What is the new hold-up?
Zim quit and we need a brutii....ive asked 5 people with no responses.
Scholar, can you advertise in the Colliseum? Omanes will get angry if i do.
WE ARE STILL GOING TO PLAY!!!
So, please dont quit, its not my fault this time, BLAME ZIM!!! :furious3:
jk Zim :laugh4:
I wont quit, not after all the time I spent getting it to work.
OK, i'll get to work. I WILL NOT QUIT
:laugh4: :laugh4: :laugh4:
Thank you.
Perhaps you can advertise too? I diid at the start of the game, and Omanes said not to abuse it.
Oh yeah, Elite, did you neutralize the Senate?
yep I did, I checked and it does go to the senate's turn and I cannot see the maps of the other factions. I'll post an advert.
edit: beaten to it :P
we can start when the brutii are here.
thanks for the patience guys.
I can step in if you guys are still desperate for another player
Well done rossahh :balloon:
Rossah, have you attempted to download the maps or anything yet?
Thank you very much Rossah, please read over the rules. If you need any help, im the one to ask.
Nice avatar changing Scholar :laugh4:
We can start when Rossahh is ready...just let me know. It will start with you again, Elite, hope you dont mind.
Also, all players REMEBER TO VOTE!!! You can also submit mandates of your own ideas...this is a Republic after all :beam:
why do I need to play my turn again?
If the senate wasnt neutralized when you played your first turn then it will screw up everyone elses data. Unless you already did, of course...then disregard this :laugh4:
yeah I did...
edit: post on last page:
"yep I did, I checked and it does go to the senate's turn and I cannot see the maps of the other factions."
Sorry Elite :laugh4:
Well then Rossahh, you can take your turn when you are ready...turn time limit IS 24 hours but its preferable to finish quicker :beam:
WOOT, glad we are finally moving. Would it be easier if we posted the save game?
Yes, thats what the game thread is for. After you upload the game, post a link in the Game Thread.
Also, both of you...2 mandates isnt alot! No one has rules they would like submitted? Enemies declared? Orders to do SOMETHING?
Feel free to post :beam:
I have uni off today so I'll get it set up and my turn done soon. I've read over all the changes and I think I understand them. I'll post the problem/s if they arise.
Please do. Feel free to vote. And, when you are ready, your turn is downloadable in the Game Thread.
I notice there is a descrepency from the instructions on page 2 compared with the instructions of page 3.
If we are using the data folder you put up, do we have to make all of the earlier changes? And do I need to install BI?
Edit: never mind, I'll just do all of the steps
It took an hour to do it all BUT IT'S WORKING.
I'll take the save now.
I extracted the save file to desktop/The Glory of Rome/saves but it is displayed as a "File" not a "SAV File"
I hope you used the right save, the 01 one? Oh and I'll put up a few Mandates.
Yeah try re-downloading it. Also, i dont think it is too smart to extract things directly to the folder. Extract it to the desktop first, then copy paste it in...so you dont overwrite anything.
It is just a file not SAV file..
I know what happened, when I renamed the file from "Quicksave" to "GoR..." I didn't add ".sav" to the end.
I'll reupload it the campaign thread just in case.
Edit: Done
Thanks... checking now
