Additional Units Mod - Rome (AUM-ROM)

Hello AUM-ROM players,

I released my AUM-ROM 2.6.

!!! It is mandatory to use the new patch with the AUM-ROM vanilla version and the AUM-ROM Radious version !!!

- fully save game compatible if you started already a new campaign with the new patch/DLC
- it should be save game compatible if you use an old campaign and play further with the new patch/DLC. But it is highly recommended by the developers to start a new campaign to fully benefit from all their changes and updates.
- adapted both AUM-ROM versions fully technically to the new patch/DLC
- adapted the feature "Fame levels changes" related to the new patch/DLC
- adapted the feature "Vanilla mercenaries recruitment chances" related to the new patch/DLC
- tested the included "Rome 2 Custom Battle Crash Fix" by RYAN related to the new patch/DLC and it is working
- all custom units are not available in the two new DLC's "Empire Divided" and "Rise of the Republic". The reason is because they use both a different time frame and my units wouldn't fit good into these time frames. I listed the
details on my Total War Center thread about which units can be recruited in which campaigns.

I updated also the language translations project UPC-ROM to the new patch and DLC.

Hello AUM-ROM players,

I released a quick fix of my AUM-ROM version. If you did subscribe on my Steam thread, then it will be updated automatically if you close and re-open Steam and then launch Rome 2 again. If you use my Mediafire or Moddb Downloads, then please update it manually.

> IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT USING THE NEW PATCH/DLC WITH YOUR OLD SAVE GAMES

It is not guaranteed that the old campaigns will work with the new patch. This is not directly related to AUM-ROM as it can happen to other mods too. Especially if you use great overhaul mods.

I didn't add my custom units to the new DLC campaign as there are already similar vanilla units available for several factions.

> AUM-ROM VANILLA

!!! It is mandatory to use the new patch with the AUM-ROM vanilla version !!!

If you use the AUM-ROM vanilla version without any big gameplay changing or overhauls mods, then the old save games of your campaigns should work with the new patch.

If you started already a new campagin with the new patch, then you can also activate AUM-ROM vanilla in your existing campaign.

The AUM-ROM vanilla version works if you bought the DLC or if you didn't bought the DLC.

> AUM-ROM RADIOUS

!!! It is mandatory to use the old patch 17 with the AUM-ROM Radious version !!!

If you use the AUM-ROM Radious version then the old save games of your campaigns will only work if you use the old patch 17.

If you started already a new campagin with the old patch 17, then you can also activate AUM-ROM Radious in your existing campaign.

There is a solution with which you can still play further your old campaigns and use the RADIOUS mods and the AUM-ROM Radious version:

1. Open "Games" in Steam go right click on "Total War: Rome 2" in your games list.
2. Select "Properties"
3. Select the tab "Betas"
4. Select the option "patch_17" in the drop-down list

After this change the old patch 17 will be downloaded and you can play your old save games of your RADIOUS campaigns further.

If you want the new patch/DLC again, then you can de-select the "patch_17" in the drop-down list and choose "NONE - unsubscribe from all beta programs" that the
newest patch will be downloaded and the new patch/DLC is available. But remember that you can't play the Radious mods without the patch 17.

If the Radious overhaul will be updated to the new patch/DLC, then I will of course also adapt the AUM-ROM Radious version fully to the new patch/DLC.

> General changelog

- adapted the AUM-ROM vanilla version fully to the new patch and DLC "Empire Divided"

Thanks a lot to PLISSKEN3 and REDOCTANE02 for testing.

Hello AUM-ROM players,

I released my AUM-ROM 2.3.

Here is my Total War Center thread with all details about the mod and the changelog:

Vanilla version
Twcenter.net

Radious version
Twcenter.net

Changelog:
- fully save game compatible
- balancing optimizations
- several optimizations related to the custom units

- added a new feature: Vanilla mercenaries recruitment chances

The chances with which the vanilla mercenaries will be available for recruitment in the provinces has been increased.

The vanilla version and the Radious version use my changes.

- added a new feature: Fame levels changes

Increased the limits related of the fame levels of all factions in the main and DLC campaigns.

The limits have been increased and you can now recruit more armies, fleets and agents (champions, dignitary, spies). You can also assign more edicts to the provinces.
The speed and experience which you need to level up your faction hasn't been changed.

The vanilla version uses my changes. The Radious version uses the same values as the core Radious mod.

Thanks a lot to PLISSKEN3 and RedOctaNe02 for testing.
