    I wasn't thinking about eradicating them, more like doing something about the trees and make them more realistic. I think there are some mods that have achieved this. (Not sure though)

    You mean like removing the insanely high trees?

    Taneda-sama,

    Adding treacherous peaks and numerous trees makes the battles far more exciting, interesting, and historically accurate. We can always fight battles on barren plains if we so desire, but it is far more challenging to pick our battles carefully based upon terrain, weather, and risk. I like it!

    Not removing them just making them smaller. I remember how much I liked the forests in MTW. RTW forests are just too...alien. Of course if Japan was covered by forests etc, I wouldn't want it to change...I just wonder if the team has made any thoughts on this subject. Maybe a tiny-mod that allows trees to be more realistic.

    Sorry for asking, but is this legal? It's one thing to use material from R:TW, since to play the mod you have to own the game, but it's quite another to use material from a different game.

    As far as i know it should be completely legal. Same game company and same publisher. Just as we are using some stuff from STW.Im sure CA will tell us if they have problem with this.

    And then, if its a problem, I think I'll just have to work on a genuine new set of ground textures, but since Ive been playing alot of M2TW lately, I guess Ill be quite inspired by its beautyfull ground textures... ;)

    But's that's not the point, is it? It's from a different game. People who play your mod will have bought R:TW, but they don't need to have bought S:TW or M2:TW. In other words, you are distributing elements of SEGA's products without their permission.

    Well. When we originally started this project. CA had a problem with the original name of the mod and we chanced it. I can assure you that we will not distribute anything without their aproval. For example the Samurai Warlords of MTW have also used elements of STW and they have already made an release of their Mod more then once, without CA having anykind of problems with it.About the map textures themselves.These are hardly more complicated then for example the MTW avatar you are wearing,so is Org also distributing CA´s game material without Orgahs necessarily bying MTW or RTW for example?

    That makes sense. I am probably being overcautious here.

    Here are two screenshots, first the layout of the 20 clans in the 86 provinces. Then a quick view of the Shimazu starting territory in Kyushu, giving an idea of the movement range for every 3 month as well as view of finished city and army banners.

    Thabks Oscar. To put it short.Long time. The map is a result of hard work from multiple people,but the bulk of work goes to BDH,who made the initial map based mostly on satellite photographs of Japan.

    Yep.Ive seen Narnia. Im happy to see it developing well.My advice is to keep the aims under control at the start and then you can build the mod up with ease later as you get on certain stage with development.So one bit at the time.
