This mod bring back special kill animations of older version of Total War: Rome II.
This mod bring back almost all of kill animations and still keep dueling animations of both patch 20 and older version of Total War: Rome II vanilla. Unike the demo video, sword - shield units and spear - shield units never have sword units and spear units animations. Sometimes, it still occurs some minor animation bugs and I'm totally sorry for this.
There are 2 main files after extracting .rar file, one is for vanilla game and other mods like Radious Mod,... and another one for Divide et Impera & Para Bellum.
Finally, A Big Thank to Petro on Steam, the first one who developed Return to Glory animation overhaul mod, which is an origin of this current mod, even though that animation mod was outdated.
For Divide et Impera users:
How to removed glitch combat animations of standard-bearers:
- Open _divide_et_impera_part1 with Pack File Manager.
- Go to "animations" -> "animation_tables" -> "_DeI_animation_tables.txt".
- Scroll to "animation_table rome_man_standard_bearer".
How to removed glitch "spear-sword" combat animations of hoplite phalanx units:
- Open _divide_et_impera_part1 with Pack File Manager.
- Go to "animations" -> "animation_tables" -> "_DeI_animation_tables.txt".
- Scroll to "animation_table rome_man_hoplite_spear_sword_hybrid" and "animation_table rome_man_spear_sword_shield".
- Delete " fragment rome_man_spear_shield_matched_combat_fragment" of three tables.
Thanks for reading and preparation for download, I hope you enjoy this mod!
Here is a demo video:
Update 1: Add more charge animation scripts.
Update 2: New charge animations brought buggy animations, so they are removed.
Update 3: Re-add new charge animations because they work very well with vanilla games some overhaul mods like Radious Mod,... but they're little buggy with Divide et Impera, Para Bellum, so you can optionally delete "@_Charging(Charging).txt", "@_Charging(Normale).txt", "@_Charging(Standing).txt" in "matched combat" section of this animation mod with Pack File Manager (outdated advice).
Update 4: Upload 2 main files, one for vanilla game, Radious mod,... and another one is for Divide et Impera, Para Bellum.
well I use 2.20 emperor edition (patch 15-17 ) I play also HELLENIKA.. from above 18patch the mods are almost all uncombatible and awful as quality. So since I first found around here and there the 2.20 Emperor Edition I think no match other even DEI with greater graphics
PS: It does not work on my vr and talk about attila animations..while I have ROME 2 Emperor Edition.. give the same error as the other mod "return of glory" of petro again. Only "new more bloody kills " of petro works great in 2.20 vr. So please do you have any in that vr ?
I choose very carefully the fight animation mods to fit and not destroy either the animations as quality or as a sum in the eye about kills deaths charge combat duels ... So I think Petro has the most of all without harming the sectors above.. then comes and works with everything warcry x1 and x2. So please to not fullload the game with more same things can you please tell me what's the difference and new about your mod here and warcry or petro's?
Hello , don't worry me too sometimes I enter here )
Well thanks for your info about your mod.
I like the fact you just enhanced the battle animations kills fight death charge and not touched other things of battle general which many mods do.
But sorry again, But what about vanilla lower than DEI vr? Is there any chance to place a lower than patch 18 ( DEI ) vr compatible ?
sorry to re write this I din not notice I hadn't login yet
this works with latest patch? :)
Of course, it works for current version of this game, Total War Rome II patch 20 Ancestral update.

Hi thank you for the update
Not seeing decapitations now after that update
Thanks for your report.
There are 2 beheading animations in this update, I've recently updated version 5.2. Please try again.
Hi thank you for the reply and update. Decapitations are happening. Your mod is the only one that works, thank you
hello. there is an error, says unrecognized equipment usage : boxer
Sorry for late reply, maybe you use older version of TW: Rome, if you use newer version with Ancestral update, this may solve the problem.

Sorry for late reply, differences between my mod and Petro's mod:
I combined both old special cinematic animations and new cinematic animation.
I released versions for both vanilla/Radious or DEI-PB mod.
My mod are just about combat animations not changing morale when charging or attacking flanks or rear.
Thanks for reading, hope you enjoy the game and mods!

I created this mod/submod for new or latest version of vanilla/mod, I'm not sure that it works for older versions.
Playing at last version. Played 10+ matches with many fractions (spartans too) and there is no any new animations wth
I think you should try my latest version 5.2 to re-experiment this mod.
Does this work with latest version?
