    Default The Org would like to extend its congratulations to...

    The 'Edit' award


    While the Hall of Fame awards are given to those who the public vote as the best in their fields, the 'edit' award is granted by the staff as a body to those modders whom they consider have had the greatest impact on the community.

    It is rarely awarded - and indeed has only been awarded in relation to Rome Total War once before. We began with a far longer list of RTW modders who've contributed to the community and whittled it down to these few final award winners who've shown an exceptional commitment to their projects since Rome was released.

    So, congratulations to:
    [cf]Adherbal, alpaca, caius britannicus, DARTH_VADER, Epistolary Richard, khelvan, lt1956, Malrubius, Myrddraal, Prometheus, Vercingetorix

    Congratulations also to the previous RTW recipient, hoggy.


    The Rome Total War 'Edit' Award Winners
    (in alphabetical order)

    [cf]Adherbal
    The original mod-leader of Chivalry Total War and one of the pioneers of introducing new building models to the game, Adherbal is continuing to wow the community with his work on Napoleonic Total War 2.

    alpaca
    Current co-mod leader of Chivalry and creator of the .hgt conversion tool, alpaca is continuing the work on improving Chivalry after the release of its single player campaign - the first non-Roman Total Conversion mod to do so.

    caius britannicus
    Former mod leader and dedicated modeller and skinner for Rome Total Realism, caius is the author of The Crusades hosted mod and is working to release this impressive modification.

    DARTH_VADER
    Perhaps the modder who has done the most to try to improve the AI challenge on the battlefield, Darth is constantly making improvements to his Darthmod and also works with several modding teams to implement similar improvements.

    Epistolary Richard
    One of the foremost proponents of RTW scripting, Richard produced one of the first scripting modifications Client Kingdoms and used the scripting system to provide an innovative All factions mod for Barbarian Invasion. Richard was also one of the first members of the EB scripting team and is currently working on new features for Res Gestae.

    hoggy
    Author and creative mastermind behind one of the most exciting original modifications ever released for Rome Total War, hoggy is continuing to wok to improve Blue Lotus since its recent first full campaign release.

    khelvan
    One of the mod co-ordinators and long-time public face of one of the community's most well-known mods, Europa Barbarorum, khelvan is continuing to work to improve EB since their first release toward their conversion to 1.5.

    lt1956
    Creator of the major community mod SPQR which is of the school of 'more, bigger, better' battles, lt1956 continues to work to improve this most public of personal modifications.

    Malrubius
    Perhaps the most dedicated investigators and modders of the trait files, Malrubius is the creator of the Genetics, Aging, Family and Health mod and produced the enormous trait files for Europa Barbarorum.

    Myrddraal
    One of the great primary researchers into modding Rome Total War, his discoveries have been built on by countless modders, Myrddraal created the Multiple Turns a Year modification which has been converted for use with almost all major modifications and has more recently released the first TW multiplayer campaign game.

    Prometheus
    Creator of Res Gestae and Ran no Jidai, Prometheus' models and skins have continued to impress the community; he's currently working on the Roman skinpack element of Res Gestae and has announced a date for their first release.

    Vercingetorix
    A name synonymous with Rome Total War modification, Vercingetorix created the tools which all modders use in order to access the original texture files and also to import new models and animations into the game. The face of Rome Total War modding would be very different without him.

    Congrats to everyone, thoroughly deserved all of you!
    When I was a child
    I caught a fleeting glimpse
    Out of the corner of my eye.
    I turned to look but it was gone
    I cannot put my finger on it now
    The child is grown,
    The dream is gone.
    I have become comfortably numb...

    I already got one in the M:TW era

    Vercingetorix, the face of Rome Total War modding would be very different without him, does not have a face.
    Or does he wish to remain anonymous?

    Congratulations to all!

    a lot of people in this list are or were part of the Lordz modding team, although not everyone has done (much) work for NTW2. I'd like to add that Hoggy is doing excellent work on the British faction for us, and Myrddraal had been working on a few things aswell.

    but I don't think I'll be around anymore when MTWII is out, unless CA really surprises me (kinda like they did with RTW, but this time in a positive way), but that's a different topic.

    congrats to everyone in the list

    Been to:

    Swords Made of Letters - 1938. The war is looming in France - and Alexandre Reythier does not have much time left to protect his country. A novel set before the war.

    A Painted Shield of Honour - 1313. Templar Knights in France are in grave danger. Can they be saved?
