Brother B.
I am almost done with the battle of Marengo. Please contact me by email so we can work together at the battles. I am also working on a website to post all the historical battles done for this mod.
it will be bad that several people make the same battles. For all the other people who read this and are interested to make hisotrical battles please contact me
Lord Le Bob at cte_fan@yahoo.com
Thanks
ah , looks like you have stolen my job http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/eek.gif lebob , i was waiting till the mod was completely finished so that i could get the historical accuracy correct for the historical battles , but as u have started already i will leave it up to you http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...ns/biggrin.gif and get my notes and maps ready for historical battles from the v.I era http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...cons/joker.gif
If anyone is interested, and if you're still doing units for this mod, I found a whole shitload of jpg's that would be great for uniticons. if anyone is interested in using them for this mod let me know and i will email them to you. Or if you're in need of someone to do some uniticons for this mod, as my mod has hit a pot hole and been put on hold for a bit i have spare time and can do some uniticons if you like. anyways just let me know if anyone is interested
No you just got a partner or two.Quote:

Kyodai,
LK is right http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...cons/smile.gif we work all together, I will be more than happy (maybe I will cry a little of joy) to work with anybody on the historical battles....the more we are the better the work (and the faster!http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...icons/wink.gif
A plus
carry on with your battles lebob, i look forward to playing them, i will wait until the mod is nearly complete before i try to do my own. I am looking at making a series of skimishes relating to a large battle I.E waterloo, i would make 5,6, 7 or 8 "battles" , each one an area of the battle, i.e the centre , can the english hold the french (Neys ? ) cavalry charge etc , i think these will play well considering the massive scale of the major battles. I am going to start on the maps this weekend and then beta test the "battles" next week but keep them as beta until the mod is finished incase of any future changes to units etc http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...ns/biggrin.gif
Also i have changed the battle music to authentic pipes and drums , which adds a good feel to the game now. I found that i had to put music in which was of 1411 quality otherwise it wouldnt play or was very quite in the battle.I dont think the size of the music files being replaced have to match to the new ones , i think its just the bit rate which has to be correct.
but as the bit rate is so high the sound file is about 60 meg so might not appeal to all, i will try and upload it to my server so it can be tested out http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...icons/wave.gif
Lk, V1.6, what can i say? FANTASTIC
Those cannon are just perfect, they completely alter the way the game flows. I love the way they limber up to move and stop to fire. Perfect.
Well Done
Once again LK, great job Those new French Grenadiers (infantry) are devastating.
The other day, I saw a great movie called "Napolean" on A&E, it was great They actually had an actor who looked like and was as short as Bonaparte (was played by Christian Clavier). Unfortunately, the Russian Czar in the film had a English accent http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/mad.gif
Those grenadiers and Highland Infanry are mynew fav units
My website was down for a little while http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/eek.gif cause I did something stupid. Bu I got it back up now.
Yes I'll finally be able to play the Austrians. I'll show those nasty bavarians what they get for annexing Tyrol
I read on another thread it was not possible to make cannons move? Leave it to LK to do the impossible http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...ns/biggrin.gifQuote:

Okay, I've put a "features" section up on my site and I would now like to make a credits. Could someone help me with a list of names.
Oh and PaulthaPict has volentired to help. He will be saiding his information to me soon.
Over the weekend i was bored and put these files together for use in
the Nap Mod, not sure if anyone has done them for the mod yet, but thought
id pass them on, theyre only rough at the moment, let me know if you think
theyll be usefull and ill tidy them up some . Thyre new napoeonic type pieces for the campmap, now they look more like the time period than the medievil type ones.
Actually i cant upload them at the moment so if anyone wants them say so and ill email them.
If you email them to me I'll upload them. I'm sure they'll help.
Whats your email??

DISASTER
Angelfire have cancelled my website
I think using it as base for my .tk site was agianst its rules.
Sorry to hear that EDK, I have a page with Geocities.com, and I hear good things about Fortunecity.com also maybe try one of those ,I hope you get it worked out http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...ns/biggrin.gif
i have a page with geocities and one with bravepages , sometimes both are ad heavy but there free sites and work well with most applications . http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cg...cons/smile.gif
As Lord Krazy has been churning out his excellent new units at warp speed, I am panting to keep with the units stats balancing. Here are a few points:
*I have given upon the square formation. In this ver we have to tweak the stats to get the infantry in deep ransk hold its ground against the all too powerful cavalry.
*Cavalry as it is now, is too powerful. One charge and the opposing battalion is gone.
I tried a few tweaks and ran some tests. In all the tests described below, the Scots Greys (British Elite Heavy Cav Regiment) are up against a battalion of French Guard Grenadiers. I played both ways : as the charging British and the defending French.
* I gave the infantry Grenadiers a depth of 8 rows to make the formation look like an attack column. This is just for cosmetic purposes.
*I changed the NUM_SUPPORTING_RANKS for the grenadiers to 4. This means the first 4 ranks could fight in a melee.
*I changed the CAVALRY_DEF_BONUS for the grenadiers to 8.
*I reduced the MAX_TURN_SPEED for the inf to half its original value. For the cav I left this parameter unchanged. This means the cavalry would be able to wheel twice as fast as the infantry. This makes sense as the pricipal advantage of the cavalry is its mobility. I shall reduce the MAX_TURN_SPEED for the heacy cavalry somewhat as they were definitely not as fast as the lights.
*With these changes the cavalry has a tough time beating infantry in a head-on charge. But if I wheel around and take the infantry in the flank or in the rear, victory is almost assured.
*One blasted probelm I have is my inability to make the AI keep the 8 deep formation when cavalry is around. The moment my horsemen are in range, the confounded AI puts the infantry into a two rank deep formation and blasts away.
*I tried to play around with the column # 52 and changed it to "Spear, Missile, Shocktroop, Cavalry". No change.
*I tried to play around with the column # 18 (Unit class labels)and changed it to "DEFENDER, SPEAR, STRONG,MISSILE". No change.
I am looking for ideas to compel the AI to keep the deep formation intact and not to deploy when cavalry is around.
How do the spear units in MTW
LC, Just a thought did you try editing coulmns 57 and 58 if you set 57 to DISCIPLINED and 58 to PERFECTLY FORMED ,maybe they would hold their ranks while under attack by cav. Again this is just speculation as I have not tried it myself...
