As several of you have suggested, I made a basic Patreon page for those who want access to the Early Access versions of the mod before I publish the official versions on MODDB

and a simple paypal.me link for those who wish to tip :) :

Patreon DAC Expanded

Paypal Tip Link

And as some of you have asked for it, I will try and list the changes I have added to the game from the base DAC:

  • Added over 180 unique buildings across the world and across the factions
  • Uniformized plenty of building stats, they make much more sense now (specifically the mirror of Galadriel, Thranduil's halls, economic buildings etc.)
  • Implemented many suggestions from the "suggestions" channel from the DAC discord + fixed many bugs from the "bug reports" channel from the DAC discord.
  • Changed some victory conditions for some factions, specifically some that made no sense (for example, Bree does not have to destroy Dunland to win)
  • Fixed many typos
  • Fixed many Unit card UI's, uniformized them (specifically the Elven troops Bree gets, many troops that the Reunited Kingdom gets etc.)
  • Increased the victory time limit from 400 turns to 800 turns.
  • Increased the starting troops for every faction and edited their starting messages to signify that.
  • Added many events for every faction, whenever you conquer a certain settlement you will get an event + money + 2 troops as a reward. (AA gets the most, as you will start in many different locations)
  • AA has received a General reward system, as you conquer a settlement - you may get a General from that faction with a unique unit as his bodyguard, an event will signify that (70 unique generals across the map)
  • Added several songs to the OST, the most changes went to the Northmen, Easterlings (Khand, Rhun, AA, Harad), Dorwinion received several songs from The Witcher 3 etc.
  • Building descriptions have been fixed, and several have gotten a custom description (farms for example)
  • Unit descriptions have been fixed, some information was outdated, and some information has been made more correct (specifically bonus damage against "oliphaunts", has been changed to "bonus damage against beasts"
  • Resources across the map have been made kind of uniformed, and "logical", as some factions would not have certain resources. + they have been set at "nice" locations - they look good on the map, thematic, they are not just thrown about.
  • And many more.


INSTRUCTIONS:

This mod is standalone, just delete your DAC folder, or rename it, and move this one in the "mods" folder.

The hotfix goes into divide_and_conquer/data/world/maps/campaign/imperial_campaign/ folder.

This fix makes the ancillaries easier to get + it makes the dragon relic script for Rhun much less annoying.

Dear modder. I praise your work on and ask you to expand this submod with even more buildings and unique buildings(gallows. cesspools. saunas. courts. and much more). As an example, you can take the Bulat Steel mod, where a lot of buildings are made and this adds a lot of interest and realism. Please. I’m ready to donate 10-20 dollars for this for an excellent and nice working submod like this one.

With gratitude for your support, of course, our dier patron. But We are not ready to give away permission for our mod`s work and labor for 10-20 dollars (and even 1000$).
Only an exchange of best practices is possible - so that everything is fair and no one is offended. Let's respect the work of each other.

Hello! Sure, I am already adding plenty of new buildings and I hope a new version is coming out soon.

I will take a look at that Bulat Steel mod, sounds good, will probably use buildings from there with their permission

This is great! I am one of the donators of Bulat Steel and am happy to donate for them to give such permission. Working together between modders and the audience can bring a lot of good in these times!

I asked them for their permission now, I downloaded their mod and am looking through their buildings, they will work really well with my submod. I hope they approve :)

You really shouldn't be uploading DaC in it's entirety and then charging people for Early Access. It's not your mod to upload and charge money for.

If you want to charge money, upload only the files that you have added/changed.

Huh, so the same "moral" problem when DAC got taken off from totalwarcenter.
I uploaded it altogether for convenience (same reason why DAC did it and got in a conflict with totalwarcenter).

And it is optional early access, nobody is charging for the mod. As the early access will provide only the changed/added files of course, I will not upload the whole thing to those who get it, as it is pointless to upload 20gb when I can only upload 100-150mb, so no worries, only the changes will be uploaded then.

Thank you anyway, I appreciate your input
