This is the beta of DIK version 5.0. As I have announced a couple of months ago, not all planned features could be realized. Nevertheless, I wish you much fun with this, sadly, unfinished part of the Italian Wars.
All new features are listed below:
New factions:
- Hafsids
- Genoa
- Mantua
- Ferrara
- Siena
- Ragusa
Strat Models (Generals, Diplomats):
- Hafsids (not included)
- Genua
- Mantua
- Ferrara
- Siena
- Ragusa
- Osmanen
Units:
- Hafsids (not included)
- Genua
- Mantua
- Ferrara
- Siena
- Ragusa
Scripts:
For all of our newly added "minifactions" won't be any factions specific events.
However, they will be included in the existing info events, etc.
The family dynasty feature will only be available for Genoa, Ragusa, Siena and the Papal States.
UI:
- New menu by Hyretic
- Newly designed loading screens
- Newly designed maps for the factions win condition
Please refer to our forum for bugs or any other problems.
Many thanks!

Will my save carry over to this version?
I am afraid it won't :)
A bunch of unit cards are missing, and some unit names say "unlocalized placement text"
I haven't included any unit cards for all new factions.
As for the unlocalized placement text, I guess that's the missing entry for the Mantovani Condottiere.
Ok, that's fine. I just wanted to make sure I didn't install it wrong or something. Love having the new factions in the mod, it really makes Italy much more dynamic.
Sure ;)
Thanks for reporting the issues!
Long Live Papal States!
The installation of my game doesn't seem to work. I don't know how I have to process the .D01, .D02, .D03 files. Can somebody here please help me?
Just extract the files and run the two exe files.
I tried that but the game shuts down after the title screen appears. Ps: thank you for responding, I really love the game. Fantastic work!
Then you have installed it probably in the wrong directory.
What is your file path?
My file path is: Program Files (x86/SEGA/Medieval II Total War/mods/Italian_Wars. I did collect the downloads in a different directory in My documents. Maybe this is the problem?
All right, let's continue here in our forum please: Moddb.com
games crashs when playing as naples, just as the french king was about to besiege the capital
Please post your problem in the abovementioned forum ;)
Also name the turn number and provide the log file.
Otherwise I can't tend your problem properly :)
Okay, I created a new thread in the forum. Thanks!
Is there an English patch for this version?
The download includes the translation files :)
where can these files be found?
There are to .exe files inside the download packages.
On is for the installation of the mod, the other for the translation.
Sorry to be dumb, but I cant find translation files in the download. Should I start again and download from the begining?
Excellent work by the way, one of my favourite historical era's. Thank you for all the hard work.
No worries!
You should have two exe files, one for the mod itself and one to install the translation files.
Glad to be at service! ;)
I now know what happened. I started again and downloaded, then located the English translation exe, but when I ran it Norton removed it almost immediately as a 'security threat'. I can load the other exe fine. I can only conclude that Norton is unhappy that we have left the EU and is restricting my access. I will muddle through for now, but any suggestions would be gratefully received.
That's strange..
Did you already scanned the files for any viruses?
I downloaded the file from moddb and in the download folder I extracted the files. I located the English exe and double clicked. Norton then deletes the file as a security risk and I have to restart the PC. The other exe is fine and loads ok.
I didnt manually scan the files before Norton did so automatically no.
Try that and let me know, thanks!
i dont know how to start the game. i dont have any icon to click on.
Well, one post is more than enough. Secondly, as you might have read at the top of this discussion, you please post your problem in our forum.
Many thank's
Is this in english or in german? thanks, cheers!
Just have a look five posts above :)
ok, thanks!
Cheers!
Hi! This mod is awsome and i just can not stop playing it...But there is a thing that boders me: out of where is the movie shown when the German Peasant s war fires?

Well, there is a another .exe file for the translated text files included in this download.

This comment is currently awaiting admin approval, join now to view.
If you see that guest thing i did forget to log in
So it was the map.rwm file?
Well it looks like its not map.rwm
It just says that medieval 2 has detected an error
Hmm.. Okay
I'd be most grateful if you could create a thread for your problem in our forum: Moddb.com
So we can discuss it there further. :)
Ok
got the thread on Moddb.com
Neadal,sorry but I am kind of an idiot at all this. Can you please give me detailed installation instructions and all that file extracting stuff. I downloaded your mod when it first came out in English. but I had a problem and was forced to wipe my computer clean and cant recall how I did it. Really liked it and want to really play it again if I can get it downloaded with your help :)
Brilliant mod. Thanks for all your work.
is it in english?
