Mods to install/follow

There was talk about such a mod on the 'daily update' thread I believe but I can't remember which mod that was. I'll look it up.

Found it, although I also remember something about the AI being zigzagging when trying to go upwind (as it should).

Gents, after reading through this thread I downloaded & installed TROM, this has achieved nothing but destroy my install, (I had back up's they're not helping). So question while I'm reinstalling all this stuff, is TROM patch specific & if it is which patch?

The readme on it has nothing relating to this.

Testicles to this I'm going with darthmod on the basis that he has the best logo...Also considering starting a "How has CA runined your life" thread, but install's will do that

some mini mods that i have:

blood mod
sweden retextures
atmospheric battle sound mod (very good!- a must-have!)
the "master and commander" music mod- this one is very, very good, better than the rest, IMO
proper militia mod
the non-realistic, but look very cool, prussia reskin mod
the Radious mod- i chose to get rid of platoon fire and lower unit upkeep + unlimited elites. its a good mod, i recommend it.

all of these makes my copy of ETW amazing, try them out you wont regret it!

The mod is an isolated package so I'm not sure what happend there. It doesn't overwrite anything.

I am running the latest TROM on 1.3.

Taken my "be reasonable" pill today. My mistake was googling the mod & dl'ing the first thing I found which was v.1.2 or something, have since got 1.50 & am busily carving up other factions pie.

Do mods fix the CTd and freezing issues in battle? These have made the campaign mode almost unplayable for me,due to the fact that it will crash to windows,or freeze mid-battle frequently,and I was spending more time trying to figure out why the hell it was doing this,than actually playing the game..
