Iyerbeth's Reduced Food Mod

Description
Iyerbeth's Reduced Food Mod - DeI Pack

DeI support has been moved to an addon pack, found here: Iyerbeth's Reduced Food Mod - DeI Pack

Iyerbeth's Reduced Food Mod

You are currently viewing the reduced food requirement mod. This mod makes alterations to the level of food penalties which buildings in Total War: Rome II apply, without changing anything else about the game. The mod is intended as a rebalance to allow a little more industrial play, rather than a cheat, and so the changes are relatively minor.

The changes are as follows:
  • All building food requirements under 10 are reduced by 1.
  • All building food requirements of 10 or more are reduced by 2.
  • Slum penalties are unchanged.

The "Iyerbeth's Reduced" Series

This mod is part of a series of mods which allow you to reduce the impact of food and/or squalor penalties in your Total War: Rome II games for both the player and ai in a flexible manner. They are all stand alone, though only one food and one squalor mod will work at a time. I recommend only using the standard reduced squalor mod, but following requests I am now supporting food mods and an additional further squalor reduction for those who wish to use them.

Each mod is patch 17 compatible and will work with existing save files on either campaign type. The database updates are optimised so this mod should not interfere with any other game modifications outside of the intended consequences of squalor and food reductions.

Finally, owing to the deserved popularity of Divide et Impera (DeI), all 'Iyerbeth's Reduced' mods now also come with an addon pack to provide appropriate food and squalor reductions for the additional buildings available in that mod for those who choose to use it. I am not affiliated with the development of DeI in any way.

your mods don't work anymore

As DeI makes some changes to the balancing of buildings in the base game I was unable to continue providing support to that mod within my base mods. Instead, I'm now offering full support in the form of an mod addon that includes all of the extra DeI buildings and rebalancing.

For those who don't use DeI: Nothing has changed.

For those who do use DeI: This mod will revert some food consumption balance changes that came with DeI, and DeI buildings are no longer reduced. Pick up the addon pack to get everything as it should be.

Sorry for the inconvenience, but this seems to be the best way to offer 100% support to all users.

Wonderful...thanks Iyerbeth! :2016gameingame:

For those waiting for the updates, I've managed to finish the reduced food today and I'll be checking for DeI compatibility tomorrow as I think there are some changes from DeI that'll be imported currently to people who don't use it, so I need to iron that out. If it's successful I'll be uploading a further reduced food version with DeI support, as well before working on the reduced squalor and finally re-adding DeI support to further reduced squalor.

FYI, I am using the Further Reduced version of your mods...no crashes yet. Using with DeI 1.2. :spacewolves:

Thanks for that information, I'll spend today seeing if I can update with DeI then. :)

Iyerbeth, I appreciate you taking the time to explain and I thank you for the mods. I have them loaded into my current DeI 1.2 game. Since I am experiencing no issues, I will simply leave them active. :KneelingBow:

@RexJayden I'm currently in the process of removing the DeI aspects of all the mods, as I was under the impression they no longer worked after a DeI update a whole back. I'm going to put the old versions up somewhere in case people still need them though, and I might add it back in to the updated version if it works for people.

In reading this, does one assume all 'reduced' mods only or does this include the 'further reduced' mods as well? Thank you for any clarification! :clownghost:
