I'd like to try out a Mod..

[Craterus]

That Terrae Expugnandae looks good. I'm going to download that sometime this week.

Thanks again, ER!

Its really good, Craterus. Just tried it. Looks great too - lovely skins. Downloads straight onto RTW, and you don't need to get rid of BI, either.

Here's a screenshot.

BI didn't work for me. But I have got RTW 1.5 installed. It works for that, yeah?

I copied the RTW file and I have a mod installed on the copy (from a while ago). Can I just delete the copy and install this mod on my vanilla 1.5? Or do I have to uninstall it all?

[The Spartan (Returns)]

RTG is great. Id like to try SPQR and RTR though. (got dial-up take too long)

The ZIP file is over 40MB! How long did it take you to download the mod with 56k The Spartan? Those 50-ish unit sprites that were created the other day are just under 30MB uncompressed btw. Mind you, I could take out the original TGAs to cut the filesize as the TGAs have now been converted to DDS.

I've never downloaded another mod myself. The one I'd like to try one day, be it in beta or full version, would be EB. Haven't really checked out every single mod available in any great depth (there's so many to choose from, which is not necessarily a bad thing ).

The problem is I tend to switch between games very frequently. Not too long ago I was into Half-Life 2 & Counter Strike: Source (not for the first time, mind ). Now I've installed MTW & VI for the first time and have really got into a Polish campaign. I'm also contemplating re-installing the original Unreal again so I can hunt some Skaarj

Yeah, as long a you have v1.5, it should work. Install on the vanilla 1.5.

My favourite mods for RTW 1.5 are Expansion mod (totalwarcentre.com), extended greek mod (XGM), Terrae Expugnundae 4.0, and RTR or Rome Total Realism. All bug free for heaps of hours I've been playing them too.
All easy to install as well!

Have fun !

Look at that shading!

It was raining in that battle - from the sky, it looked like a storm was coming.

Gotta patch question...

If I am running BI do I have to patch RTW to 1.5, AND BI to 1.6. Or does the BI 1.6 patch cover both?
