v. 2.0; compatible with steam releases and nightly patches at least up to 5th May 2017; NOT COMPATIBLE WITH OTHER SUBMODS! MAKE SURE YOU GET THE LATEST VERSION OF TLD!
In Vain's TLD Scene Pack
Just as TLD, this package is an OSP, so you're free to change, re-upload or incorporate it into other mods.
Please give me some credit. :)
Credits:
The original and current TLD team
Gutekfiutek: some textures from Polished Buildings
Ruthven: water particle effects
Crusaders: Way to Expiation Mod: some meshes
Slawomir of Aaarrghh: OSP Map Icons Pack
DISCLAIMER:
This submod brings some changes that either may effect gameplay or the aesthetics of some scenes:
- The war intro cutscenes won't work properly.
- Destructable gates are much stronger now.
- This mod overwrites TLD's 'black' pebble ground texture with Vanilla's, so some scenes, namely orc camps, might look strange now until I fix this.
Installation:
Unpack the package into your TLD folder (create a backup first!), allow to overwrite.
If you're using Snouz' TLD Warband Asset Pack:
DO NOT OVERWRITE THE MODULE.INI!
Instead, paste these line into the existing module.ini:
load_mod_resource = InVain_textures
load_mod_resource = InVain_Morgul
load_mod_resource = InVain_WB_meshes
load_mod_resource = InVain_WB_workshops
Make sure to put InVain_textures before all the TLD files, for example right before 'load_mod_resource = arnor'
I DO NOT OFFER SUPPORT for any other submods. If you encounter any problems when using this submod in combination with another, I can't help you. Before reporting bugs, please make sure they also occur when using this submod alone.
