It was just an idea or suggestion, no biggy.

I noticed your working with the Europe Ancient mod, you made a submod or standalone mod for it, might have to check that one out.

I just extracted your mod from winrar into Medieval 2 mods folder and used your launcher and it worked, this is Apha 1.3 version though?

I just tried this mod just out of curiosity and it looks cool, keep up the good work.

I did find a bug playing the House of Billung the mailed knights horses have no textures they are white or grey, didn't try any oter factions just the House of Billung.

The mission was to attack Hamm and on the battle the mailed knights horses didn't have any textures, just wanted to make sure it's not on my end since I have a few Medieval 2 mods installed.

Edit: It's the newest Apha 1.3 version.

I can't believe I'm the first to reply to this mod?

Looks cool, maybe you can team up with the guy who made Empire extend mod with more regions?

This looks cool, good job.

I watched your video and noticed none of the added regions have armies, you going to add armies?

My next question is this going to be compatible with other mods?

I'm trying to install this mod with the installer download 2.4a, but everytime I try to install it the install launcher disappears?

It also says it's an unwanted program once I accept the agreement terms?

This might be my antivirus containing it maybe IDK?

Now when I try to install it gets an error occurred while trying to rename a file in destination directory move file folder code 5 access denied.

I'll try to extract it elsewhere to try to install manually.

Edit: Moving it manually seemed to have worked.

I'll add this mod is insanely hard especially playing one of the Barbarian Factions, all rebels have huge armies and money is scarce, think rebels even recruit units it's insane.

Was playing the Arverni faction and conquered a rebel settlement with a port, figured I would at least have a port to get some money through trade but once I conquered settlement the port disappeared.

I'm playing a French Campaign and a popup comes up asking to give 4,000 to allow the Saxons to migrate to your lands, it says you get to recruit Saxon units, so I click yes and after several turns no saxon units to recruit, it this a bug or am I missing something?

I also have the same issue with order units, built a Hospitaller guild or castle and after several turns no order units to recruit?

I might be missing something?

Make a copy of the medieval2 application file: select\highlight the file, press Ctlr+C and then press Ctlr+V. This will create a file named 'medieval2 - Copy' - now select\highlight this file and press F2, this will allow you to change the name of the file. Proceed and rename it to kingdoms, press return once you are finished.

I just started playing the PItalica2 mod, but they have no unit banners which I like to see displaying over units, looks more epic to me anyway.

This mod looks amazing, I'll have to try this mod out in a few days.

The only problem I have so far is the lack of unit banners.

I know this is an old mod and thread but if some are still having issues with running this mod with steam? install in program files x86-steam-steamapps-common-medieval 2 total war-mods folder, once you install it in that folder you right click on Launch_PItalica2.bat and edit the kingdom.exe to this medieval2.exe, then launch the game, it should look like this.

cd ..\..
start medieval2.exe @mods\PItalica2\cfgPItalica2.cfg

You're correct LAA seemed to do nothing, still get 1 1/2 minute turn times on Thrones of Britannia Shieldwall mod, assume it's because they added a manpower script that displays in middle of screen all of the time?

I tried your mod and it's fun, if you can give the units some new skins it would be amazing, maybe some new castle and city models would be cool as well.

The Knut script appears twice, maybe that's a bug IDK, the Pope mission to raise Catholic religion in a region needs to be changed to Culture, was playing one of the German houses and once I got German culture up I got the reward for the mission?

Keep up the good work.

Urbgen I was thinking with the Irish Campaign map you have it would be cool to have a Norse and Danish invaders Campaign, you could be the Viking Factions or the Irish Factions, not many mods cover that time period in Ireland, just a thought?

I got it to run faster by taking off compatibility mode, had it on windows 7 compatibility, some mods run better in compatibility mode and some don't it seems?

The other game I own is Thrones of Britannia and I have the Shieldwall mod installed and that one takes forever for turn times, the vanilla game runs super fast, just wonder if I could use the LAA Large Address Aware to make that mod run faster? heard Thrones already has that installed in their game though?

I like playing different Medieval 2 mods and I tried this one out, great unit skins and everything looks great but enemy Generals are very hard to kill a long with their bodyguards, takes a long time to kill the General and it's silly that his bodyguard fights to the death, it's also silly surrounding one person that is left in the General bodyguard and taking another 5 minutes to kill him, that in my opinion needs to be toned down some.

I assume custom Campaign isn't supposed to be played, tried a Norman campaign and it crashes on the Rebel factions turn time?

If anyone is having issues on windows 10 with turn times being to slow try not running medieval 2 launcher and medieval kingdoms launcher in compatibility mode, it worked for me.

Just right click on medieval 2 launcher and also Kingdoms launcher in your medieval 2 data folder and then properties then click on compatibility and make sure run this program in campatibility mode isn't clicked, just run default it sped up my turn times quite a bit.

Why are the turn times so long?

I know there are a lot of scripts but 3 to 5 minutes a turn is kinda crazy.

I applied LAA and the turn times are still very long, assume my computer isn't strong enough but my computer is 16gbs an dit runs most newer games.

I have been getting some random crashes when I'm clicking around in available buildings to build and what I need to build to get them, had one battle crash for some unknown reason, that was playing the North Angle faction in the Insularis Draco Campaign.

There seems to be a bug playing that faction with a duplicate Germanic Barracks, for some reason it showed 2 Germanic barracks in the City, no big deal, it seems to go away after you build the Germanic barracks I think?

I think it would be cool if you brought back or added loot after winning battles "along with the ransom" that would help with the extremely high upkeep for units, small armies you only get maybe 1000 and medium armies 2000 and large armies after you defeat them you get 4000 after you win the battle, maybe add more free upkeep to forts, just an idea of course.

edit: Those crashes come playing the game in offline mode, not sure if that is the problem or not, one installation video I saw you have to be on steam to play it?

Bronze age would be cool, that would be a whole new project and it would probably take years to finish, figured a Viking age with you modding it the right way with what you already have in Insularis Draco it would be a little quicker.

I've noticed this mod seems to be more optimized than any other overhaul mods even with all of the scripts running the turn times seem a lot quicker, that's the Insularis campaign.

I'm currently playing the Britain campaign as the Jutes, having a lot of fun even though my King died from pests and I had to wait years for my king to come of age, was 16, is 16 correct or is that a bug, seems kind of a long wait to come of age?

Can you add a Viking Age mod to this game.

This is by far my favorite mod for Medieval 2.

Would be nice if some would start to mod Thrones of Britannia, maybe mod in Insularis Draco for Thrones of Britannia.

Since upkeep is so high can you bring back or implement looting of the battlefield dead and captured soldiers after you win a battle, I'm not talking about the already ransom of soldiers, that would help out in the beginning when money is scarce.

I guess I could try to add that myself if I remember what to mod, was playing Danes and I was in the red after around 4 or 5 turns.

I love the battles the map and pretty much everything about this mod, great job.

Thunderofcannons - - 190 comments @ faster vanilla like campaign

Will this work with reforged?

The economy for these mods are brutal, you go into the red very quickly even if you go around conquering settlements, not sure how you could possibly win especially with Viking factions in Norway and Gautland.

I was playing a norwegian faction with King Fairhair and almost conquered all of Norway, had one settlement to conquer and I was like 70,000 in the red and just ran out of units.

Thunderofcannons - - 190 comments @ Deus lo Vult: Battlefield Balanced v4.35 Full

I used to be able to play DLV on my steam version when I had Windows 8.1, now I have Windows 10 and for some reason I can't get the DLV BB 4.35 and 4.36 to run it crashes everytime when going into a battle?

I have a couple questions do you install the Patch BB 4.36 into the DLV.ext mod folder, which would make sense?

Second question is do you need the Western units overhaul 4.0 mod as well with the BB 4.35 and BB 4.36?

I tried changing the DLV.ext to americas and tried to launch it and it didn't work either. my next step is to try to run through steam launcher and add --features.mod=/DLV.ext?

Edit: I give up makes no sense to me, the mod runs fine on campaign map but when I try to fight a battle it crashes every single time grrr.

I know this mod reforged is old and I'm not sure if the modders are even around anymore?

I have a bug with Gautland King General skin, he has no texture, it's just him and the rest of his bodyguards unit is fine not sure about the other Generals, just started it up and fought a battle and noticed he has no texture, does anyone else have this or it it just on my end?

I did notice his general bodyguards are a normal land unit rekar I think they are called?

Edit: I just switched his unit in the descr_strat to a general bodyguard unit and it fixed his textures, he dies in a year or 2 anyway.

Kind of vague on the description of this mod?

I like the Last kingdom mod but not sure what this mod does?

Is the mod supposed to be only around 99 mbs?

Edit: I just tried your mod just to see what you have done.

I like the map and the factions.

I played the Kingdon of northern Sudreyar I think that's the name and just build up my settlements for a few years to get a dock to make longships and then attacked a rebel settlement and most of my units have no textures at all, it was the one that used to be Poland.

I have no idea how to add textures and units but is there a way to use The last Kingdom units or The Wrath of the Northmen units?

Good luck with this it needs a lot of work.

Any way to make this just on the Warpath Campaign, maybe expand on this by changing year to late 1500's or middle 1600's and maybe adding some more factions like Portugal, Sweden?
