Which Mod?

**[R]icK** · 06-10-2007, 20:23

Hi, new to the forums well i've been reading them for a while but this is my first post.

Had Medieval 2 since Christmas, and had Medieval and Rome Total war including the expansion packs.

Anyway I keep hearing about patches and Mods and I don’t have a clue how to get them where to save them etc.

I have tried to get this 1.2 everyone goes on about

but after downloading it, it just disappeared

I’m quite interested in getting a Mod of the game and was wondering if anyone has any suggestions of which would be a good one to get? Id quite like one with more cities and where the AI isn’t so random and actually prepares for wars etc.

Like I said i'm a total noob when it comes to things like saving these things like which folder to do it in etc.

If anyone could help with a step by step or something it would be greatly appreciated

Cheers

i'm looking for a mod too so far stainless steel and lands to conquer seem popular but i can't find them.. But for 1.2 where did you tell the computer to save it because there should be an unpacker you have to use then you just put in where the game is and done.

Hey,

You probably saved the launcher in your temp. folder. You should make sure your computer saves it to the desktop, at least you can't lose the patch that way. After that just double click it, and let the launcher do its thing. Also, make sure you install the 1.2 patch over your 1.0 version - but I dare say that's not an issue with your current install.

On mods...

Well, there are no total conversion mods yet, as it's too early for those to have finished by now. A popular mod at the moment is Lusted's Land To Conquer, you should contact him or search the forum (I can't seem to find a link at the moment, though I'm sure someone else can).

That said, there's a limit to what modders can do. And sadly, changing the AI is one of those limits...

Found the lands to conquer in Sinan's latest post about VH/VH he posted himself.

Going to download later any clues on where to save it etc?

Sorry guys im not to good at this and want to get it right

iirc, the latest version of Lands to Conquer is reliant on you having the 1.2 patch installed; you'll need to download and install that first

**sirnoob** · 06-13-2007, 16:55

Does it do that thing where it automaticly puts itself in a new folder?

**Skott** · 06-13-2007, 17:06

Everything is automatic. Lusted makes things very easy in his mods. Just make sure you install patch 1.2 (or 1.02 as some call it) first before installing LtC mod. If you go over to the TW Center you'll find the Stainless Steel mod info. Just do a search for it. It should come up. Thats how I found it.

I will make this short and sweet.

I am looking for a mod that you can play against the Aztecs, Mongols and Timorids from the start. If it also lets the Aztecs build the ships required to come to me as well it would be sweet.

Is there one? I don't have the time or the energy to learn how to fish today so please just let me have one instead.

the one I posted before allows all of that, not only are they in the game from the begining but you can play as them.
