did you change marian reform trigger in EBBS script?
if not you have to wait until you conquer 90 cities
I reduced mine to 50.
my offices does not depend on marian reforms any more so you may get offices at 50 cities earlier than named legions.

plus you are asking in the wrong thread but no problem anyway I made both mods. :yes:

for pahlava any city can trigger but sure they are certain cities. so you have to make heka, persepolis etc. at least a normal city.

My last version of EOM V:4 Carthaginian Governors has been uploaded.
This will be my last EOM Version before EB2 will be released.
As I have idea what kind of government system EB team will use for EB2, I am not sure whether there will be EOM for EB2 or not.

Have fun and enjoy my last version.

Atra

sorry for being such a noob :dizzy2: but do i have to install the office mod into the rome folder or the rome/EB folder? like c:\games\rome or c:\games\rome\EB ?
and is there a chance to immediately find out when i start the game whether it worked ? (just wanna make sure i did nothing wrong...)

thanks Chris

Just choose where your RTW is located most players put RTW C:/Program Files/Activision/Rome - Total War. mine is on D:/Program Files/Activision/Rome - Total War so just find your link for your total war folder .
not C:/Program Files/Activision/Rome - Total War/EB

to check whether my mod is installed or not just open EB folder then EB Data folder find export_descr_ancillaries.txt in EB Data folder.
open it then press ctrl+f write Atraphoenix if you see these lines :

you did it. :yes:
My last version EOM4 is an install.exe but the previous ones were manual copy paste. so do not mix them. If you like previous ones you have to copy paste them manually.


I hope it helps.
and welcome to the org.

I do not know and I could not find anybody who can help me to add so I just added achaemenid titles as ı wanted to show them as successor to to them.
so if you know someone who knows Armenian and if he/she can tell me this title in Armenian it is easy to add.

I also did not put for carthage because I had same problem. If you decide to use achaemenid title
you can add Spahbed / Spahbod but it is a very long explanation. just copy parthian Eran Spahbed in descr_ancillaries and export_descr_ancillaries and changed the id by addin armaenian_ instaead of parthian_spahbed or if no parthian id just add armenian_spahbed / armenian_eran_spahbed
if you forget to change each id RTW crashes with 2 ANCİLLARY WİTH SAME NAME/ID :no:

THANKS FOR YOUR RESPONSE. if i find a player who knows how to mod it ill call u. i think chenkai may help me. hes a great fan of hayasdan but he is on tw center forums. ill keep u in touch with him if he nows wat to do

modding ancillaries is easy part, what we need is Armenian equivalence of Commander-in-Chief in ancient Armenia. :yes:

Hi Atra,

I just want to make some suggestions for the Hayasdan Office:

a) instead of the word Xsaçapāvan, I think the governor/Satrap in Hayasdan were called Marzpan / Marzban (Persian) or Marzpet (New armenian), from the word Marz (province) and pan / ban (keeper, in persian)

This is according to the type II and III government for Hayasdan in EB, which were called Arkaiakan Marz (royal satrapy / province) and Marz (Province). So, for the satrap of hayasdan, it can be named "Hayasdan Marzpet", instead of "Xsaçapāvan e Hayasdan"

So for the references:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marzpan
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adminis...ons_of_Armenia
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marzpanate_Period


Other Offices:

b) Hai Sparapet, equivalent to the Parthian "Eran Spahbed" (Commander-in-Chief)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sparapet



c) Aspet (Master of the horse)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aspet



d) Hazarapet, (Minister of the Interior, public works and finance), maybe equivalent to the Parthian "Hazarbed"

http://www.iranica.com/newsite/index.../v12f1082.html

Thanks

I have noted them, so I need to prapare a new release.
Thanks mate,
I wish I could find anyone who can give the same infos for Phoenicians (namely for carthage)..

Hi Atra,

I noted that the Armenian call the region surround them by their local name, I'll list some, maybe it can help you to make the governor titles for Hayasdan.

Region Name in EB / Name of City in EB - Old Armenian

a) Hayasdan / Armavir – Hayasdan
b) Pokr Hayk / Ani-Kamah – Pokr Hayk’
c) Sophene / Karkathiokerta – Cop’k’
d) Aghvan / Kabalaka – Aghuank’
e) Adurbagadan / Phraaspa – Atrpatakan
f) Egrisi / Kotais – Lazistan
g) Kartli / Mtskheta – Vrastan
h) Kappadokia / Mazaka – Kapadovkia
i) Media / Ekbatana - Marastan
j) Persis / Persepolis – Parskastan
k) Assyrie / Eddesa – Asorik’
l) Mesopotamia / Seleukia – Miǰagetk’ (literally “middle river”)

I'll add more if i have the infos.

Lazistan is a middle age name for the Lazic kingdom that ruled easthern part of black sea reagion and around Batumi. Sakartvelo is our own name for Georgia but Kartli / Egrisi are latin names they even used iberia for the eastern part of modern Georgia. That is how we call her (I am georgian) but no idea how armenians. for others I see no problem. and we need a minister of finance and prime minister as we solved commander-in-chief.

PS. Armenian alphabet is harder to concert latin even harder than Georgian Alphabet.
It's unique, but I like uniqueness abut I have no chance to understand a person from Tbilisi. even our accents, is a nightmare for foreigners.

Ohh I see.

I know that the native name for Georgia is Sakartvelo and the people called themselves kartvelebi.. As for Lazistan, I think it was derived from Persian word:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Egrisi

Because of the Persian influence, I think the Armenian call that region "Lazistan".


For Kartli, I think Armenian call Georgia "Vrastan"

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armenians_in_Georgia


For other Offices, maybe you can check this:

http://www.iranica.com/newsite/index...v2f4a071a.html

Look at the section : "Iranian Loanwords in Armenian" beginning at paragraph "title are abundant....."
But I think the offices were used during the period of Sassanid, not enough evidence that the Offices were used before that....

Great Mod,

I am using VT's adaptations and noticed something interesting... Only Senators with mid-high influence may be assigned an legionary flag. The tribune cannot merely leave a city to receive their assignment. I use this to roleplay a governor, praetor, or consul assigning legions to junior commanders.

Is there a particular trigger to actually receive the ancillary once I get the 3 new regions? Do I need a particular FM to get it?

---

yes ancillaries are coded like that. you do not need any particular FM (unless he has 8 ancillaries of course)

Concerning the Seleukid Archistrategos ancillary, why do I get a "Not in His Satrapy"
trait for it every time one of my FMs gets it? Does it having electability 22 have anything
to do with it?

---

traits files are not inside ancillary files they are separate. I have modded just ancillaries so you can ask a trait modder for its triggers, my humble opinion if you keep any of your general outside of his satrapy he may get this trait.

electability is a matter of discussion but I do not think that it effects trait because it is designed for ancillaries, basically it gives a numerical order, though I have experienced AI does not follow the order you have put. I could not see much difference when I omit them, also I tried everything, I can assure that RTW or any expansion exe is not so generous upon giving ancillaries or ı have added too much ancillary that makes it harder for AI to give all. (around 250 - 300)

So, to stop the "Not in his Satrapy" problem, I should edit
the EDCT around the Satrapal triggers section?
Seems sensible.

About electability, I know next to nothing about
it, so I won't bother with debating about it. :clown:

When a general with a legate command dies, will that legate command be recycled and be offered to another general at a later time?

---

Yes, a new general who has less than 8 ancillaries and in the certain city can get the ancillary again. If he dies, do not worry just keep one in the city you get the ancillary.
also as you may know you can switch ancillaries between your generals. I mostly give the office to another general after the holder passes 55-60 years.

Great submods you got there!
Does this mod include your Parthian Satrapies mod?
thx

EOM or Extended Offices Mod has been developed upon Parthian Satrapies Mod, my first mod for EB...

I just leave its link for nostalgia for me....

Hi!

If I want all factions you've made offices for to have their offices, do I have to pick the Carthage one? install them all? or pick the latest standard EOM version?

Thanks in advance!

last one is enough mate....
I quit modding BTW that would be the last one at least unless somebody else develops my mods...

Sorry to bother, but is this mod compatible with EB on the BI.exe?

this mod is my unique mod that is even compatible with city mod after I changed my triggers in the last versions and of course with any RTW exe because all versions had ancillaries and there was no other modder who modded ancillaries except me for EB. :yes:

Yeah, i just couldn't wait, and gave it a shot even before you answered my post:laugh4:

Nice job... It adds some depth to the game:2thumbsup:

Hi There!
Some Guys mentioned it earlier in this thread, the offices of Hayasdan could use a litte expansion.
So I tried a little modding on my own and this is my result:

I orientate on konny's great aar about Hayasdan. so its a little bit more "medieval armenia" than "persian armenia".
So i changed the "Satrap"-titles in "Bdeshkh of...". So that the provinces Kartli,Egrisi,aghvan,adurbadegan,adiabene and media are ruled by an "viceroy".
Than i added the title "Sparapet" (commander in chief), Hazarapet (minister of the Interior, public works and finance) and Malkhaz (is responsible for the protection and safety of the King).
I also tried to give a litte bit background to some provinces.

There should be no bugs, cuz i only copied and changed Atraphoenix well-arranged satapral system and trigger system.
I would declare this light edited version as "beta" cuz i couldn't do much testing, though.

I hope you like it so far and let me know if you have some suggestions.

Finally somebody attempted to mod ancillaries other than me. :balloon2:

I have added tax bonuses to offices and your newly described armenian ancillaries as well.

Atra


I have made some changes on bug report please use first page for installation of fixed files.

I may have found a bug

As I said in the DeBug forum:

Quote:

I have the following mods (installed in order of appearance):
EB 1.2 Fixes
Alex Pack of EB MiniMod from Lz3
Phalanx Mod for Alex
RS Textures
Unofficial Sea StratMap AddOn
Extended Offices
Historical Battles Mod
New Quotes for 1.2

Now, when I infiltrate a city and the Spy opens the gates, and I assault it, It CTDs before the loadscreen and keeps playing the music until it stops.
I can't play 2 battles in the same turn or it CTDs

---

I uninstalled your Extended Offices mode and it didn't CTD, but apart from that, it didn't work (or at least i didn't see it working)
I have no idea why it CTD, maybe i'll do some other tests

EDIT:
Your mod was the problem :/

well, maybe you could figure out what's wrong and then update

I have made some checks and I have changed some cities that use not internal names
like "Kart-Hadast" now "Kart_Hadast"
and many others without accents like "é"s.
I have replaced my installation files of triggers namely export_descr_ancillaries
and now if the problem because of my triggers there won't be any problem.
on the other hand ancillary triggers that I modded are triggered when you press end turn battle.
If you have CTD, during normal turn, namely you attack a town and capture it in your turn, not AI attacks you and you play it during AI Turn, this CTD is beyond my mod but if you have CTD during AI turn my mod may cause it.
At the moment I am testing my mod again and will report here whether my mod stable or not.

I have tested my mod after the fixes and I think it is better now .

this link has the last fixed version of my mod.
I will add some screenies later.

What if I wanted your mod to develop (sorry bout the spelling) a little bit more to add it to my Mod Pack?

I could help you, I autodidactized myself in the art of EDA by changing some things on your mod.

I have omitted many faction especially for celts because I have no info on their goverment offices but you can add them yourself by copying the the triggers of other factions with english names like "Governor of Gergovia" but if somebody can give me their possessional form I can add them like "-i" or "é" in persian.

P.S. I have no objection if somebody uses my mods for EB, the only problem I had is that some of my mods was based upon other mods like RS so not for a new mod.

keep on good work!

Hello,

Let me start with saying I really REALLY like the idea of you mod.
I downloaded it, and I have started playing.

My only concern is that I did something wrong with the files, so I had a question.
Is there an easy way to check I did everything as it should be without actually capturing 50 settlements ?
maybe a console cheat which gives a certain ancilliary ?

I play as the Romani.

Thanks in advance !

@postmoov:
I just quote Atraphoenix himself to answer your question. ;-)

Have a question myself though.
I realized that I somehow lost my copy of V.T. Marvins 2.1 adaption of this mod and the links given in this topic seem dead. Does anyone still have that mod and would be so kind to reupload it?
Thanks in advance.

I have no copy of it you may PM V.T. Marvin, on the other hand he seems passive for a long time.

Okay, thanks !
It seems I did everything as it should be.

Now for another question, why do the ancilliares trigger when you reach 50 settlements ?
It seems a bit much, but I could be wrong or missing some historic reason behind all this.

I roleplay when Marius was consul and if you reflect his reforms 90 settlements are too much. I have decreased EBBS script to 50 cities so both my marian reformed legions and their commanders are available.
Also later I have adapted RS legions as stated in my sig, so now I have named legions as well.

If you check this map, though may not be so accurate, 90 cities are reaaally too much if you apply it to EB map.

hi man, awesome add-on to the game, but what I felt is that there's some incomplete work here and there (specially romans) so i began to expand your work, adding new roman provinces to the game, but, what I've encountered is that I'm getting a non-message CTD, so I think I could ask your help, after all you better than anyone knows how your system works, so this is what I've done, what is basically copy-paste your triggers,ancillaries and so on and changing the name for the specific province, getting this:

Also, if correct me if I'm wrong, electability works only as a marker for the specific ancillary? having two electability numbers affects in some way the adquistion of the ancillaries? for example, you gave the governor_of_cyrenacia ancillary a electability of 26, so if I give my recently created "governor_of_illyricum" ancillary the same number, does this causes conflicts to the game?

thanks in advance for your help, and the great system you've created

looking foward your reply ;)

You had a good job on it, simply electability makes the game engine assign the FMs the stated ancillaries in order. You may omit them, I have followed the EB goverment system so I left it.

We have a good trait and ancillary verificator in tools sections that can be used both for Rome and Medieval2 that helped me greatly reducing script and missing errors.

So search for "ATVTW - Trait/Ancillary Validator of Sqυid"

Also I am sure that you are not using windows notepad.

Hi Atraphoenix, :bump:

I have been just re-reading some old threads including this one and noticed a discussion we have had many years ago (on page 1 and 2 here) about how it "might be nice to intoduce a script, giving the faction, say, 500 mnai if the HAMÂRAKARA/DIOIKETES is both unselfish and loyal, whereby if he is selfish and disloyal those money would be taken away (as he is keeping the amenities of his position for himself - that would force the player to choose his top officers carefully)". Now it occurred to me a rather simple solution to this so that I am wondering how we did not tried that earlier. Just as province ancillaries in vanilla EB are tied with provincial governor trait, it should be possible to design corresponding traits to other ancillaries like Dioiketes and only after that let the EBBS check for the traits and give or take away the money... :idea:

I do think that you will be making another version of your Extended Offices Mod for EB 1.2, but noticing from your signature that you have been promoted to official EB Team ancillary-designer, you might find it helpful in your current endeavors towards EB II. Or not...
:trytofly:

This mod can be enlarged a lot in many ways, personally at the moment I mostly read for resources for Pahlavs. I lack power on script so if you can combine this with other mod file you are free to do what you want. Yes, I have new offices but I am unsure to put them here, they are currently reserved for EB2.

hi Atra, belliger here.

I get this too (e.g. for the Persis satrapy) and my FM always stays in his satrapy, so I am wondering if there is a solution for this bug. I also looked into the files but my knowledge of triggers isn't good enough. I only added the condition that the FM has to stay in the settlement for the trait to remove, but I don't know if this works actually.

So is there a solution for this problem?

I know that this post is already 4 years old :)

@Atraphoenix
This is a great mod :) Thank you for your efforts on this
Just a little issue though. Imho it was better to make "ShâhânShâh" a trait not an ancillary. Also is it possible for you to replace Pahlava faction heir title (Which right now is called "Prince"!) with Vâspur?

I quit updating this submod for a long time because of real life issues and my other modding works.
@TheStranger your issue is not related with this submod it is based on your mod compilations or vanilla traits.
@kambiz it is possible to change both but this mod is based on ancillary files to do your statements some other files should be modded.

I will not update this again if there are volunteers or modders they can mod this whatever they wish.

Here is a new link for this mod:
