Blue Lotus: Total War

At the moment we're doing it as a seperate install i'm afraid folks. We need custom battles for testing and apparently they don't work using the shortcut. We may change this later.

MTW2 does look great, I have to say it is a large part down to the difference in quality of the artwork and the added processing power. At the moment we're just doing RTW and concentrating on a release for that but who knows...

I'd install 5 copies of RTW on my puter if necessary to play your mod. Every day I come to look and see if it is done or if there is a beta out or something like that, is another day I sigh and look off into the distance. Delayed gratification. I only hope that when it is released I won't get too excited and have a heart attack.... Then I'd never get to play.

In case you hadn't seen this, a modder named kagemusha has discovered how to place STW assasination movies into the RTW assasination message graphic. Since Blue Lotus has a far eastern theme, you could probably use them "as is". It would be a neat new feature.

Will it also work with 1.5? Cause this is done in BI.

it should work in any version of rome/bi

it is basically replacing the event pic with a similar code to the wonder videos only with the assassination vids instead... it would be cool if hoggy would include them but i don't think ninjas would work well with demons/india
