Mods?!!!

[Miraj710]

Hey guys, I'm a 15 year old boy from Australia.
I've played Medieval Total War(awesome!), Rome, and Medieval 2. I went back to Rome recently, and I was wondering how to download and install mods. Also if someone could tell me a good mod that isnt too big in size, that would help a lot. Sorry if someones done this before:D

thanks

EB is almost certainly the best mod for Rome, but it can be tricky to install if you aren't experienced with mods and it's quite (OK very) large. Check out the EB forum https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/forumdisplay.php?f=70 where you will find people are very happy to help if you have a problem.

thanks a lot mate, that's probably a bit too big and complicated for me though. Do you know any smaller ones, just to get used to the whole mod thing?

Try RTR, it's still quite big (120 mb) but it isn't quite as intimidating as EB. I played it a lot a few years back. Link for RTR Platinum http://www.twcenter.net/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=197

Plus, RTR is a much better mod than EB.

hey does RTR work for patch 1.5?

[johnhughthom]

Yep, RTR Platinum is for 1.5. It's the one I linked above.

These mods are very big, but there are also several ones people skip over when they think of mods for Rome.

I can recommend two I've been playing for years: Napoleonic Total War 2 Chivalry: Total War. They both provide very diffrent eras then R:TW, or EB or RTR. Actually there's so many mods its up to personal taste what era they like.

Hi sorry for not saying this earlier, but i have the Gold Edition of Rome, so with BI. Would the link above with RTR still work for the Gold edition?

Thanks

[pevergreen]

Should do.

Hey guys,
It actually worked. Loving the game. It feels so different from the normal game. Thanks so much for helping me out here.

Thanks again

Good stuff, be sure to try EB when you feel more confident with modding.

[Miraj710]

I will try EB later. Thanks again everyone for helping out. Appreciate it
