Ancient TW3 - Roman Wars

[macsen rufus]

Another little taster from the RCW campaign - the arch-enemies meet!



Now for the main news: v1.5 has been released

There's a link to the new version in the downloads thread. This includes the RCW campaign and the new legionaries (and auxilia) based on YanBG's new model, plus all the tweaks and changes I've mentioned above.

It has been tested as a re-install, and seems to be working properly, but as ever, there's always a chance that one of the 3,700 seperate files may have been misplaced or not updated or whatever, so please let me know here if there are any problems.

Requires a clean copy of MTW:VI as usual, check the text box during install to see a list of files that can be deleted before you continue.

Well done Mac !
I'll download it soon ....
Unfortunately , I wont be playing any campaigns until I finish & deliver at least half of the bifs I'm currently working on .
But I'll most certainly be having a few Custom Battles as soon as time permits , to check out those lovely new Romans by Yan .

Would have been an easy victory for you in this battle
cheers

As expected, I found a couple of glitches in that some old files have persisted and need to be removed. It's not a major breakage, but makes things look a bit odd at times on the battlefield, because it places some extra shields on figures.

Simple fix: go to Textures/Men/Items/Shield6

• Delete SamniteAUX folder
• Open GallicAUX folder and delete all files EXCEPT fight.txt

Yup, and I got my revenge in first, because that 4* under Pompey was Marcus Junius Brutus

This is a great mod. I hope it will be further developed in the future. Cheers!

I just started a game as the Ptolemies and it's been pretty fun! I've expended into Asia minor and beaten the Nabateans. Maybe I have an old download of the game but all the Ptolemaic kings have the same name lol. I'd loving the units as Egypt and it's been fun to expand and see the world change. So far the Purple Romans are super powerful and have a strong fleet, hopefully they won't attack me or I'll lose all the money I'm making at sea haha!

Yeah this mod works for me! it's been a blast trying to make Alexander's empire again with the Ptolemaic dynasty. I'm so glad these kind of mods exist for this game, I love managing my character's loyalty and the civil war mechanic. The only thing that I find that I dislike a bit is the building icons. It's kinda hard to see what is what and they aren't even in colour. Granted now that I'm use to them a bit it's easier to manage.
