This mod aims at improving every aspect of the incredible game that is Age of Empires 3 and its expansions. From new mechanics to new civilizations, cards, technologies, units, buildings, maps, soundtracks and game modes, the Improvement Mod focuses on replayability and gameplay smoothness and has been in the works since 2009, making it the perfect choice for players who want to get the most out of the game and then some, without changing it completely.

Description

DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS! I am leaving it here as an archive of my previous work, but if you want to play the latest version of the mod then avoid this.

Mod does not work, the installer says it installs correctly and such, I switch it to the steam directory, but upon activating the launcher it gives me .dll errors.
I found all the .dll's needed and placed them in the directory but now it gives me this error: "The procedure entry point GrannyPWNGT34332VertexType could not be located in the dynamic link library granny2.dll". Any ideas on how to fix this?

Yup, completely unninstall and reinstall everything. (a complete unninstallation also means to delete any remaining folders or files left in the Steam directory)

Also DO NOT RUN THE MOD'S PATCHER (AoE3ImpModPatcher.exe) if you have 5.4 and haven't downloaded the newer patcher. You can start the game as you would normally do via its default exe or from Steam.

Uhm, if you're using the mod's patcher then you should get updates like every week... For the past few months I've been releasing updates continuously, changing a lot of stuff.
The patcher connects to a server from where it downloads updates for the mod and I always tell people to use it. Now I'm telling you.

Also, if you use the patcher, when version 5.5 get's released it will be nothing new as every single thing 5.5 contains will be available through the patcher as well.

I have a question..... Does pizza taste yum. plz answere i really want to know.

Still please answere that question and i want this mod because it looks very cool and all that but i got other mods that i want to try out to and i know it wont work with them and all that, but my question is how are you?? because with all the answeres you've given to all the other people you either seemed to be angry or stressed so how are you in truth??

I'll be honest, I don't know. I think I'm just a bit of an *******, and I'm sorry for that.
Still, answering the same questions over and over again, repeating the same stuff continuously just because people don't bother to read a few lines of text or check a blog post, it gets kinda annoying. That's all I ask from my players, they get all of this for free and I only ask for them to pay attention and help me improve the mod.

But even if I am an ******* you should be glad I answer to basically every comment since other modders don't bother that much.
And if it makes you feel any better, the leaders of other AoE3 mods are also kinda ********... XD

I guess the stress of managing a big mod, especially by yourself, gets to you.
And yes, pizza is absolutely delicious, especially since I eat it very rarely.

It's not you thats the ******* man it's every other person that is for not reading the first couple of comments which pretty much answered exactly what they asked.

and you must be a really good modder to create this with some other people i think?? because i still have no clue on how to create even the simplest mod. + with how people do the mods and explain them they make it seem really easy to make. and true most of the leaders of other mods are ******* when people ask a simple question asking how to unninstall or something because they couldn't be bothered to do a readme or state how to uninstall just makes them more of an *******. one day when i create a really good mod for this game maybe? i hope you try it out...... and im having pizza for dinner.

one small question to (it's not about your mod though) would you happen to know where to find an AI folder?? because the 'AIStandard.xs' or something keeps coming up when i play the game and i dont want to uninstall then re-install because thats a waste of time.

hi man really promising mod, i want to try it rigth now but i have some questions before i proceed to installing this thing

1) can i use TWC civs with this?

2) will i lose all of my savegames?

3) is there a similar project for TWC?

4) are there any plan for new campaings?

5) i know you've said this lots of times but i have another mod installed called age of dynasties, still needs a bit of work but is relatively good, the files are in aoe3 collection folder but it was installed as a separate game mode thus no savegames or progess are shared with any of the original games, can i have both mods this way?
