East of Rome BETA 0.9 (Only Danube Limes is playable) file

EDIT as of 2023-05-06 - Louis Lux did fix a few Roman units for this version of the mod, later sent to me by the creator of a different mod - I won't continue this mod due to the crash to desktop that happens in the Justinian Main Campaign (which has been moved in under "custom campaigns" - "restauratio_imperii" - The campaign named "Justinian Main Campaign" is the Danube Limes fully playable campaign) whenever the Sassanid settlements are taken by anyone - but I felt like updating the mod as a few units had been updated/fixed here. I didn't ask for these units to be fixed and/or updated but the guy who sent me the models are also using them in his mod.

This is the official beta 0.9 of East of Rome (EoR) which was only ever available to developers of the mod until the developer's forum got removed over at TWC.

Back in 2017 I worked on re-enabling many of the units for custom battle - as they were not working due to faulty lines in the BMMDB-file and had to be corrected in order to work properly in battle. Expect to be able to play custom battles with more factions than in the 2014 Danube Limes Beta.

What about the campaign?

In this version of the mod you'd get a slightly more developed version of the Danube Limes Campaign that should be more stable, and there are a bunch of remade units for the Romans made in 2020 by Komatozz, so I've also been doing a bit of fixing for the mod.

The End of Antiquity Campaign is not developed enough to be playable, and the Justinian Campaign has a weird crash to desktop where whenever you select Sassanid-styled cities the mod will crash - but sometimes it won't. It's not far from being playable.

I don't seem to be able to fix the crash and will release this version as is, if anyone wants to pick it up and try their hands at fixing the bug in the Justinian campaign be my guest.

If you want units just be sure to credit the East of Rome team as that's what the developers said.

I gave up on fixing the Justinian Campaign, but the mod should still be better off than the prior upload - and I still put effort into enabling the rosters in custom battle even if the Main Campaign still isn't playable due to said bug and the fact certain factions (in the campaign) will need new units as the units have been lost. I did remove all those factions from the custom battles but they're still in the Justinian Main campaign - every faction/unit of the factions available in custom should work but not the others available in the grand campaign.

Credits to the East of Rome Development Team for most of the work on this beta, I just fixed it up a bit from its state in 2017 - which still took me some work mostly done in 2017 and in 2019.
