Вставка

- This is my 7th video of the "How To" series where I show you how to modify Rome Total War. This video shows you how to mod the unit data file, so that you can change the special ability of units. So you can have a Spartan go in testudo, have an Urban do a War Cry, put your basic spear men into a phalanx formation. You think of it you can do it.
how do i make the god-like slingers?
shawn force I believe its the same for BI and Alexander, who just find the data folder for those two games and edit the same type of file.
***** Dolfy I would go to www.twcenter.net/forums/ you might have a bit of luck there. Dolfy might be able to help?
I can't figure out how to do this for barbarian invasion.
I wanted to edit speed of some units but I couldn't find "fast moving" in the list of unit attributes in the file mentioned in the video (export desc unit or sth like that). What files I need to change units' speed?
Did you ever find out cus I’m looking for this
Nice video dude but unfortunately it doesn't help me with what I want to change. I just want to edit things so I can train Spartan hoplites in every city, not just Sparta and Syracuse. It's tricky with all of that hidden resources stuff. So can you just tell me which alterations to made so I can do that. Thanks in advance.
+Aleksandar Mutavski I haven't done much modding on the campaigns, but I think I have a look at it and make a video to show you how to it.
Salve. I was trying to modify descr_senate to have more offices. 2 praetors 2 consuls, but i cannot seen the other offices because i dont have a scroll. can you help me with this?
How do I change the City Names, i.e .......... Pergamum to Troy, I'm still running windows 8.
How do you pop up the "Find" Box (what is the hot-key for that?)
Ratī Kāma Vrajavasī Rasa hold down the control button and press F. This should work for most programs too, not just note pad.
Please help me change the number of troops in total war rome 2
Would it be possible to reskin a general's unit? I'm trying to change the Romano-British's general to the Sarmatian Auxilia model
Joseph Chervoni Yeah you can copy and past the skin option too. You can give your war pigs the skim of a cataphrac camel!
Well, I tried to change it but it just crashed when I tried to open the game again
the data folder is super sensitive to changes. I've added Dolfy into this comment as he knows everything there is to know with modding Rome Total War. Any chance you help Dolfy?
I have done a little after how you did.. And when i start the game it crashes, why?
+Ri'saad Khajiit if you have made lots of changes it can cause the game to crash. its best just to make a few changes at a time.
Biscuits Total War Thank you
like the hoplites for example in the Greek cities army I want to change their normal unit size to 180 but how?
+Skyrim NPC WARS I've never tried it before. I guess you can change the number in a unit on same file that we were modding. Did you give it a try?
I know this was 10 months ago, but still. The max unit size is 60 (in the file), 240 in game, not including officers and generals. You can make a unit have 180 men in it by editing it to have 45 men in the files and then changing the unit size in the options menu to huge. Unit size huge is the file number multiplied by 4, so 45x4=180 and 60x4=240 and 40x4=160 and so on.
Can I make the Spartans be spear men like triarri and not phalanx ?
yeah you can, if you just get rid of the phalanx option of the spartan unit.
What folder is that at the start? It's not the one in Steam\steamapps\common
+darrar90 it should be steam\steamApps|common\Rometoalwargold
Biscuits Total War Do you mean Steam\steamapps\common\Total War Rome II? Cause it aint there.
This is a video for rome total war, not rome total war 2
does this work in campaign mode?
+William Enesten Yeah, once the mod has been installed you will be able to see if in both online and campaign mode.
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSS
mine has binary code how can i change it
Actually
Too many "actually" words in the same sentences. :D
Hello my friend, i hope you will understand this:
I want to mod the flags and icons of my faction so i can have my own flag.
I could easily modify the flags of the menu things. Very easy.
Now, I want to start mod the flags you see in the real game. I understood that these flags are in the UI folder wich you need to unpack.
I downloaded xpak (last version 0.25). In the readme file i read that i have to copy xpak.bat and xpak.exe in:
RTW\Data\paks
It works. I can see in the paks folder, a new folder called DATA wich i find inside several folders and also UI.
I find all the images i need to modify, but when I do, nothing really happens into the game.
I know that UI should be in RTW\Data\UI but what i obtained using xpak is having RTW\Data\paks\DATA\UI
If i copy all the folders in DATA, and put it into the RTW\Data file, still nothing happens, and actually i tried again to unpack with xpak and i still see the original flags.
My question is: when I unpack DATA folder (ui inside) what should I do? I can modify it, but it looks like this xpak just copies it and the real one is still "hidden".
Can you help me?
THanks.
I subscribed btw, thanks for your videos.
+EhKOfilms_Movies Thats a good question, i'm not too sure on how to do that sorry. But I do know someone who will know the answer. His name is Dolfy (he made the mod that i use for the vegetation) Best bet would be to ask him over his youtube channel 0 ua-cam.com/channels/lVWK4jhlgGud7bIwFm9Umw.html
Please let me know how you get on.
Thanks
I'm a Parthia guy so when I found out how to do this I highered eastern infantry attack to 20 and defense to 15 the I made there morale to disciplined and highly trained then gave them phalanx position but I couldn't give them testudo because the game wouldn't run if I did any way this edit made my Parthia campaign so much easier.
i manged to put vanilla unit into eb mod but they came with full experience ,armor ,and weapon level , where can edit these traits
Can i give pontus sewer works and aqueducts...???
Is there anyway to mod campaign to where you can have 40 stack armies on the campaign i Rome 1 and medieval 2 along with expansions?
Hey, i am a beginner on this, but when i went to my total war Rome folder it tells me i have 4 disc, there is no data,etc. just disk 1 , disk 2,disk 3,disk 4
Any idea about modding range? I know where the stat is, but no matter how many times I change it, I can't actually get the range to change...
excellent
Still useful 7 years later!
Does this work on Warhammer Total War as well?
what does stat_ground mean!?
Can I do this in shogun 2?
Can you do this stuff in Empire, Shogun, or Rome 2 because I would enjoy playing as unplayable factions in Shogun as well as making an un-stoppable army of Invincible Samouri
GamingKid Christian I'm not sure to be honest as i have never tried.
Ok thanks for the reply
GamingKid Christian you can make the general screech
SCREECHING WOMEN!!!
It does not work on steam
rome 222222222 rome 22222
Sup
before I go to bed & before I forget Im going to ask how do you edit bi is it the same as base game also alexander how do I do mod that.when you see this let me know how
thank you my 1st time moding units I use 2 mod start date and start funds but my first tryand I made a good unit I had 2 fix some thang but it was forgot to type a few thangs in time for bed shoudnt be messn with game files tired ;)
it wont let me save the changes
You have to edit the preferences file first
has anyone noticed that the montefortino helmet is non existent for the rome faction soldiers
Why does this have so little comments?
Hey how do you get to that specific page
I Watched, I tried, I failed - Me
ok, so i went into the file and went to the barbarian peasants, gave them swords and made them ok-ish and when i tried starting the game it didn't work, it would show the starting to load screen than it would quit with out an error message.
You can't just give them a sword . Because the unit model is made up to be a spearman . If u want to give them a swords u will need to create a new model from 0 and a new info
It means u can't replace the old unit
Is it possible to create your own units by gathering the data of other units ? What i mean is like creating a non-phalanx version of silver shield pikemen while also keeping the original ones. Very informative video ty :D
+Black Shadow I think it could be done. I know I have given none pike units long spears.
Also on the battlefield as well as the campaign map
Sekh bajracharya I'm guessing you have a very early version of the game with 4 disks? I'm not sure how it works on that version of Rome Total War.
Biscuits Total War could you make a total war atilla version
Does it work for medieval 2 total war?
Yo Biscuit!
Im that german guy from the Thrace Video with Legend :D
I just wanted to ask if you play any other games except for Total War, like League of Legends and such :)
Talha DeliPorsuk I do have other total war games, but i like rome total war the most. I might play Arena when it comes out.
I'm having issues. I can only change the units attack values and one at a time, if I do more or anything else, such as the defense, mass ect. My game crashes on the loading screen on startup.
+El Dominguez The file is very very senative, even if you just put a double space in the file it can cause the game not to start. I have never tried chaning those stats, but I have changed the range of the units. Therefore you can get Urbans throwing their pilla from across the battlefield!
+Biscuits Total War Thanks anyways. Have you ever tried to change a units name or unit size and if so, has it worked for you? For me it just crashes.
Can i change how many turns units take time to be trained and what amount of public order temples give?
Yes, should be at cost. If you want to mod a building like a temple you should have a look inside the export_descr_buildings file
Hi Biscuit, about the phalanx... so any spearmen is able to make a phalanx if i put that in? Like Warband, and such.
EDIT: Already figured out :)
DominusOfficial cool, how did the warband phalanx look?
Biscuits Total War
Looked like the germanian spear warband
Is their a way to add Catatraphact cavs to Roman armys?
Tony Moua Yeah there is way, if you check my "How To" videos. There is a video showing you how to unlock all units. So you can add Cataraphacts to the Roman list of units.
Thanks for that
Is that possible to disable phalanxes in Greek or Macedonian units?
Yes, though I don't know why you'd want to. Phalanxes are so useless at the moment, I'm probably going to edit the space between men down to 0.5 meters. Right now, infantry will walk right through the front of them if they're at least as good as Hastati (i.e. at least as good as garbage).
@@michaelrex6948 you obviously don't know how to play phalanx units
Hey how do you change unit size individually
soldier, soldier name, number of soldiers (cannot exceed 60, I believe; so 240 on max unit size)
What the fu...I don't have that in my data folder???
James Banner you should have the file - its call "export_descr_unit".
Biscuits Total War I swear I don't have it in my data folder. In fact, my data folder wasn't nearly as extensive as yours. I didn't see half the stuff in my data folder as I saw in your video.
is it necessary to have a certain version
+Muhammad Umair nope this should work on very version. I know it 100% works for 1.5V and 1.51 etc.
how do u make the units larger
I'm not sure how your alter the file without it crashing.
Biscuits, not including all those that you said before.
Where can I change the units Speed and How do I change the Onager's Inaccuracy against Troops.
Any Idea?
The max unit size is 60 (in the file), 240 in game. Not including officers and generals. Lager then this it will crash.
Endri Guri I know this is 4 yrs old lmao but did you ever find out
@@yunada4277 I don't think so but it's easy to do u just need to change
A file named export_descr_unit.txt
On it u will find all the info about the unit
-now what u need to change is soldier
The 6th line in the unit info u I'll find the unit name the a number that number is what u need to Change but there is limits u can't have more then 240 men ( 60)
Hi, I have done my own modifications such as Eagle Royal Pikemen, etc. I also want to add some units to other factions; I have tried to add Phalanx Pikemen to Egypt and Heavy Hoplites to Macedon and Seleucids. It works at Custom Battle but not at the campaign which it is my main target.
I tried to modificate the file where the military buildings are and I think everything is ok, I add the new units, but they don't appear in the campaign. Can somebody help me, please?
how to edit spear bonus? its set in +8 vs cav and -4 def , i wanna change that bonus to another values
