RTW MP Campaign - The game has begun!

**hellenes** · 12-12-2005, 18:14

I ve got an Idea if only this is doable through scripts the eliminated factions could be respawned, this would add a new dimension and give the lost faction a hope...

Hellenes

PS: Are we starting or not what is the Numidian guy doing?

hellenes. Have the mod files been uploaded? What version of the mod are we playing?

**Bleda** · 12-13-2005, 00:52

what version of RTR am I looking for exactly.
@Krek, sorry to be asking so many questions, I'm just trying to make this mod work to it's best ability (like most of us are). You recently posted that we need RTR light mod v1.00 but in my searches I have found no RTR mod labled like that. Just 5.4, 5.4.1, 6.0 etc... am I looking for one of these?

**LordRaiden** · 12-13-2005, 07:58

testing.

Finally i got it to let me post on the forum :D. hello all :)

**LordRaiden** · 12-13-2005, 08:03

sorry about the double post but i couldn't figure out how to edit.

There is a problem with a couple of the files
Germania Points to Briton instead of Scythia so after Germania it will be Britons turn instead of Scythia like it was meant to be.

I also found that more than half of the factions crash the game if you try to start the game with them, including Numidia.

And half of the factions do not allow RTW to even boot past the Activision screen without crashing, it seems to be the faction specific file that is causing this, but my Faction seems to work just fine so if everyone elses is working fine then i don't care if all the other factions are screwed up on my pc :P

Thanks,
Lord Raiden Tekamoon

Bleda, don't worry about asking questions. Things witch people refer to as being 'easy' are only 'easy' when you understand them.

So I'll answer your question for everyone since probably more people have problems:

TO EVERYONE:
(sorry to yell)

We are NOT playing Rome:Total Realism (RTR) as you may be used to! (like v5.x, 6.x or the future 7.x)

Hellenes and DestroyerOfHope have made a NEW mod, witch is based on RTR. They have called this the RTR light mod.
They have done this so we can play a balanced game for all factions, and use some ideas from RTR without everyone having to download a mod that is 200+ MB.

So: RTR lightmod v1.00, v1.01 or v1.02 are NOT the RTR as we now it.

So, once again an explanation for what to do:
(you only have to read this when you haven't read all the posts by Hellenes about it and followed his instructions)

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE MOD in seven steps:

Start without any RTW related products on your Harddisk (clean install):

1) Install RTW (by C.A.) from your CD's.

2) Download and install RTW patch v1.03 (by C.A.)

3a) Download RTR light mod v1.00 here:
http://files.filefront.com/RTW_MP_MO.../fileinfo.html
3b) Install RTR light mod v1.00

4a) Download RTR light mod patch v1.01 here:
http://www.totalwar.org/Downloads/Rt...P_MOD_1.01.zip
4b) Install RTR light mod patch v1.01

5a) Download RTR light mod patch v1.02 here:
http://www.totalwar.org/Downloads/Rt...P_MOD_1.02.rar
5b) Install RTR light mod patch v1.02

6a) Download descr_regions.rar here (witch probably should have been called patch v1.03):
http://www.totalwar.org/Downloads/Rt...cr_regions.rar
6b) Install descr_regions.rar (in your 'Rome - Total War/data/world/maps/base' folder)

7) Delete file called 'map.rwm' in your 'Rome - Total War/data/world/maps/base' folder, or you won't be able to train new units!

I hope this is understandable for everyone. Good luck installing!

(I understand now why Hellenes started to write in a big red font

)

Any questions regarding the mod itself, please ask Hellenes or DestroyerOfHope, since they are the experts (and creators).

I totally agree about Tedward, it probably isn't going to be worth playing if there are going to be people not responding. But about King Malcom... what?
