Lord of the Rings --- Crusader Wars Patch

Description
*********Not compatible with ''Realms in Exile BETA''/Use CK3 1.12.5*********


This is a submod for ''Realms in Exile'' which make my ''Crusader Wars'' mapper compatible with it.

Thanks to the ''Crusader Wars'' mod, you can now enjoy the best of each worlds :

- The depth and role-play of a Crusader Kings 3 campaign with the mod ''Realms in Exile''.
- The epic and strategic battles of Attila : Total War with the mod ''The Dawnless Days''.



FEATURES :

- Fully playable campaign map : Every single ''Realms in exile'' cultures and MAA are linked to 30 uniques ''Dawnless Days'' rosters.

- Dynamic roster : Characters like the ''Witch King'', ''Khamûl'', or the others Nazgûl, will be present on the battlefield if they are leading their army.

- Custom ''Dawnless Days'' battle maps linked to the ''Realms in Exils'' campaign map.

- If you fight a battle in a county with a special building, you'll play the battle on a custom map (Isengard, Edoras, Mount Doom etc...)

- Now compatible with ''Númenor'' submod !

PROBLEMS ?

- To launch the battle in Attila, go to ''Battles''/''Historical Battles''.
- Don't forget to desactivate the other mappers in the Crusader Wars app.
- Be sure that your ''Attila'' install is working BEFORE use it with ''Crusader Wars'' ! Launch an Attila custom battle with all the LoftR submods enabled.
-During the loading of the battle, Attila will freeze, just wait a moment.
- In case of crash/invisible units etc... Check the ''Crusader Wars'' Discord and fill a crash report



FUTURE PLANS :

- Balance and fix

Any chance of this getting an update to work with the new beta?

I followed Havie's instructions but I have a problem with the Realms in Exile and Dawnless Days mods, when I go to start a battle, Attila Total War loads but the battle doesn't appear in the historical battles section, only the two battles that come by default in DD appear. Any ideas?

Does LOTR works properly with the good units on the battlefield ?
Dominus_Invictus 16 Apr @ 3:34pm 
Is the map in this post still accurate if not complete?
Dominus_Invictus 15 Apr @ 7:00am 
What features are currently functioning? So far everything seems fine except for the custom maps connected to special buildings.
Havie 12 Apr @ 3:41pm 
I've been working with the Crusader Wars dev to fix the Men at arms issues. I also started investigating whats up with the current compatibility issues.

For those that want to make this work with the current live version of LOTR 1.15 you need to make a 3rd mod loaded after LOTR that has the original Crusader Wars frontend_ingame_menu.gui file. (Or manually delete it from LOTR)

For some reason the LOTR team included this extra, unused file that prevents Crusader Wars from working in their latest release.

Unfortunately, while it works, it seems too many of the units simply were not or are no longer mapped properly, feels like a lot of missing units when entering battles. Such a cool idea but might not be worth playing on an old version of the lotr mod as likely you wont fight the battles in attila after awhile due to missing units >.<

You are a beautiful person. Drinks are on me if we ever meet

I figured out how to get Realms of Exile (old version) working with Crusader Wars if anyone wants :

Im gonna save people hopefully a lot of trouble. It seems the CK3 LOTR mod is no longer compatible with Crusader Wars as of ~ October 2024. When you go to fight a battle it just opens the Ck3 ESC menu. People in both discords have confirmed this. We need an older version of the Realm of Exile mod to be uploaded somewhere (the ones on catalogue.smods.ru are corrupted for me). I've reached out to the mod authors and made them aware.
