There is a way to fix the rebels iussue, where in a rebellion rebels are VI units?
Does the mod have a Japanese faction in the VI campaign map?
A couple of quick questions for anyone who has the time to answer
music: I remember last time I installed this mod I had to tweak some files and add some .wav files to get the music to work, has anyone simplified this at all with like a music pack? or can you direct me to the appropriate post.
maps: do these go in the save maps folder or the campaign / battle / maps folder
retraining: I notice that some of my Nodachi generals if they get down to one man wont retrain - I get the you need to build message - but I can build nodachi in that province?
thanks

I don't understand it. Does this mod work on anyone? I tried it several times and it doesn't load the map. In fact it doesn't detect the map at all.
Can someone help or at least release a proper version of this?
Good god almighty. I can't believe I never notced this mod. To hell with RTW- I'm going Medeival again!
Ok I got it to work but I have problems. Why do the dead bodies dissapear? Or better why don't they apear?
oki
i have not read through everything
but the dead bodies is a bug i will be fixing in next release
the next release
which some of us (1pain1duck and Ra's al Ghul among others) are working very hard on at the moment
it is At Least a few weeks away
right now i am "populating" the clans with as correct a mix of names as i can
some of the names are from 600AD to the early 1800's, but i figure they name kids after great grandparets and after great characters from their histories so i hope you'll let me get away with that
also i intend to provide my research as well organised as possible so it will become a central reference point for births and deaths,
this should make campaign-mods set in other era's a little easier (like the Mejii, the Onin or Taira-Minamoto wars)
some clans have very little data on them available, so they will be "filled up" with fictional heroes from some of the more popular fictional books set in the Era (and movies)
OR they will be populated with samurai from clans that did exist, but got wiped out before all the big "assimilations" took place
a couple of clans general lists are being populated by martial arts dojo's that existed in the Era (and their decendants)
One other thing i am doing is alternate names, if a samurai was know by two or three other names all of them will appear in the lists
some 20 odd clans - each needing a minimum of 120 names being 40heirs and 80generals means i have to find over 2,400 names!!!
Shortly i will also be asking for people to help me populate 2 special clans with names that dont appear in the histories(trust me, i have well over 20MB of files, e-books and even a couple of complete websites that people have kindly sent to me)
Another thing i am going to do is make the next release an overwrite mod
this means we can use all the excellent Shogun AND Warlords bif files!!!
(a couple need minor editing - some of which i have already edited)
It also means i can use duplicate bifs and recolour them to make new units,
Yari sams - in shogun they were Yari Sams and that is all that was in the bif
for Mongols they became Yari AND Nagi sams with simply a different weapon added into the bif BUT they also had Crossbowmen added to their bif, which meant losing some animations
SO I will recolour the sams in the black suit crossbow bif and make them into a seperate unit
also the multi colour crossbowmen in the mod will most likely become Ronin Crossbows while the clans will get the black suit crossbows
that sort of thing
it also means it is going to be a lot easier to add-in the mongol units
seeing the majority are already in Warlords!!!
(but i am hoping to keep some of the medieval mogols too - and give the mogols an expanded array of units)
When i get close to that part i will be asking people what additional mongol units should be added to the Shogun/WEMI mongols
and if i can make the time i will also be making my own bif's containing 2 new units that i have always felt should have been in the game from the beginning - lets hope i get the time!!!
(i have to cut and edit 2 bifs to get them into the game)
but now that i am going to be overwriting for this release that job just got a whole lot easier than it was - i no longer have to combine units into bifs to have the room - i can replace some of the medieval bifs that we wont be needing.
We also have a neat front end from Tomi to add,
(and a new intro movie!!! - we actually have TWO, Soly and I will have to duke it out to see which one we use)
and we will also be looking at the interface itself and trying to bring the shogun feel to the interface (for campaugn map and hopefully for the battle map too)
This mod has always been a community project and i will be doing my best to thank everyone in the readme file
WELL over 50 people have commited time, resources and energy to this mod over the last 18 months
Cheers

well,
one thing that would be helpful is ideas
have a wander through the medieval unit bifs and unit mix,
What unit bifs from Medieval/VI would be suited to representing additional Mongol Units ?
What type of units should be added to the Mogols ?
note - if you want a unit, you need to find me a bif that has it
What unit bifs from Medieval/VI would be suited to representing additional Japanese Peasant forces (i can retone skin to make them less European - the current Europen peasant bifs have too much faction colours on them to be truly usefull - but some of the others (muslim bifs for example)may be handy
What additional peasant type troops should make an appearance?
note - if you want a unit, you need to find me a bif that has it
What unit bifs from Medieval/VI would be suited to representing MONKS?
What type of Units should the Religious Warrior Monk forces contain?
note - if you want a unit, you need to find me a bif that has it
Cheers,

Today I bribed some rebels in Kii and got a unit of Welsh Bandits. They are really effective, and very cool.
Is there any way to construct a unit of ninja archers or perhaps brigands, based on the Welsh Bandits, who could hide?

Uhm, they shouldn't be there.Originally Posted by ichi
Yes, easily done. But what about the Battlefield Ninja?Originally Posted by ichi
I've to admit I haven't used them in this mod yet, but they are buildable
and the stats say that they can hide. At least in my version where I've
changed a few things.
I don't know their range atm but the Longbow range seems a bit too much.
barocca will have a last say on this issue.
