Rome II

[Gusington]

OK so my current install of Divide and Conquer is updating, but there is also a 4th piece to the entire mod that can be downloaded and installed. Not sure if it's the update or the 4th part that causes the problems for some. Still reading up on it.

looking at TWC hes made a change to embarking rules that has broken some things - i think hes undoing them

Thanks guys for the info on the campaigns.....

^Surely. It took me a few sessions to get the feel for everything but once I did I really started to enjoy it.

'Embarking rules' 'Geek? Also...it looks like my Radious mod is also updating. Guess I'll have to read a book in the meantime...:/

I fear becoming addicted like you guys:)  Just can't fight the urge anymore, hope to really dive in...

Give it a few hours and if it clicks with you, well...see you in a year. Unless of course you get blind sided my mod updates that take hours. Like me right now.

OK it looks like Radious was the mod that had hung up my launcher. I have not subscribed to the 4th part of Divide and Conquer...going to launch now to see if anything has changed.

Just played through two battles and then had a lockup and crash at the end. Until then the game seemed to be operating normally.

Yeah something about embarking ships but a few people have complained they're now stranded in ports and can't get out.... he said this afternoon he'd go in and change it.....
That's all I've got

I enjoy vanilla...but all this talk of mods is making me moist.  I'm afraid to start modding though because I don't want to deal with all these bugs and problems. Is it really worth it?

Given how easy it is to switch them off and on and the improvements they make I'd say do it

Even just for the four turns a year and the formation stability it's worth it imho

I've only got the Radious mod and have had no issues at all. No hang-ups or crashes since I installed the game.

Radious had posted at Steam that his mod would no longer be able to be updated there because of problems with Steam and for new updates, go to the Total War Center. There he shows 2 updates since 1/12, one being the 4 Turns Per Year and Seasonal Changes. But playing my Radious mod campaign at Steam, I've got the 4TPR and Season Changes even though the last change note is 1/12. I wonder if he's wrong about Steam not being able to update his new changes-- it seems to be playing just fine and has the new stuff. Of course I could be wrong and tomorrow the whole damned thing go screwey too. Makes me want to go back to vanilla but the mods make the game so much better. Color me  ???

[Grim.Reaper]

Although mods can add to the experience, always scares me to death there is some problem lurking out there and you might not find it until your deep into the game....therefore, I typically play on vanilla myself....but some mods do look enticing.

Must be I don't have the new Radious stuff-- the latest update, as it included a bunch of new units, none of which appear in my Steam campaign version. :'(
