For me, the mod has not worked for some time : it remains blocked on the original buildings, whatever the civilizations. What manipulation could I do ?

Will you make IA for AoE2 DE?

Awesome, thanks!

Sorry about the late reply, but yeah, you can use the DAT as a template for your mod as long as you give credit.

Hi, do you mind if I make a modification of this mod that increases the resources in deposits by 3? I have a mod that does that, but can't use both of the data mods at the same time. Thanks.

About adding regional / supported units? Sorry, it's not happening anymore. I've been though a lot of personal issues and depression the past year and I haven't worked on any of the mods at all. As for now, I just feel that it is too late with DE coming out soon. I really wish I replied to Nyraan here, since I would have granted Nyraan permission to do so.

I'm sorry for the disappointing reply.

We need an update :'(

Hey there! I am new to AOE 2 modding and would like to make a version of this old DAT that supports units same like ur mod here , even if I use it just for myself to play the classic campaigns. Can you give me tips where I could start to edit the unit IDs? and if the Genie editor is the right tool to do so? Thanks!

Everytime I want to use this mod I must start a random map with it. Is there any way to load it by default with the game itself?

Hey this mod is blue when I check on it in game under workshop, it is also does not let me enable it, any help?

Thanks Sain_Michaels_ I find that answer to be a good reason

Because are basically a first release, I'm not sure if they are working 100% correctly on the DLC version yet and I just simply want it to be working so that I don't have two problems instead of one. It's also harder to mod the original dataset compared to the DLC one because there are some attributes and SLP's you can't touch / edit in the X1 version of the DAT.

There is also not much (public) mods for the Units at the moment, so I'm not getting much feedback if the new ID's are working in that regard.

I will get to it. I just need to be sure everything is in fact working.

TriRem. Sorry but isn't it folish. The original campaigns CANNOT be played with independent units BUT the DLC's, (forgotten, african kingdoms and rise of the rajas), CAN. I can't see the point. can you?.
TriRem 22 Mar, 2018 @ 3:45am 
Easy, you're not entitled for anything. This is a mod you can use for free, made by someone in his free time. So maybe tone down the attitude a bit.
Klaus Moeller 22 Mar, 2018 @ 12:41am 
Saint_michaels_. Now, when your independent architeture for DLC has unit support. THEN WHY NOT THIS ONE???????. I mean what use is the other one if it only works on the DLC parts of the game????
MrHobby53 21 Mar, 2018 @ 10:35am 
@Saint_Michaels_ thanks a lot!
Saint_Michaels_  [author] 18 Mar, 2018 @ 6:50pm 
@ MrHobby53 - I'm sure you have figured it out already since you have commented on the primary mod, but this is a version for the Original Dataset, the one with the old Conquerors version without the DLC.

Multiplayer is supported, but the game are unrated since HD makes all custom dataset mods unranked. Until there is changes with how HD handles the Dataset mods online or officially implement features with this mod into the official dataset(s), this is as best I can do in terms of multiplayer.
MrHobby53 18 Mar, 2018 @ 1:03pm 
P.S. for some reason don't have forgotten empires civs in it :/ that moment when there are slavic mod that is only supported by this mod but this mod (for me) doesn't support slavs
MrHobby53 18 Mar, 2018 @ 12:40pm 
2 things
what about multiplayer

that icon is an upgrade icon for undead in warcraft3 :D nice

Updated Today. This version of IA should now properly support Trade Workshops.

Also noticed that the Frank feudal forum doesn't have the right shadow.

It doesn't work for the campaigns. I tried both this one and the one for the DLC dataset, not a single change (and yes, I launched a normal game before with the mod as requested).
Saint_Michaels_  [author] 3 Dec, 2017 @ 6:34pm 
The IA Mods appear to be working fine on my end still on both 5.5 & 5.6 Beta.

are the Dataset Mods (IA & Others) are set at the lowest priority in the Workshop Menu?
Saint_Michaels_  [author] 18 Nov, 2017 @ 8:15am 
Because this is for the Original Dataset, not the Dataset that uses the DLC's. The Primary IA Mod that does use the DLC's is linked here:

Why doesn't this work with playing the additional packs such as forgotten empires or african expansion?
