@tyrantapprentice9 Yes this should work with Rome Era Chapters. Have fun!

Is this mod compatible with Rome Era Chapters?

@◀EffiJeffy▶ If you mean could I create my own animations then no. Currently, every animation that exists in the game exists within this mod. I would consider adding more if I had the skills, but even if I did create new animations they would look out of place, due to most animations being done using motion capture.

The only thing I could do, and have been doing, is transfer animations between weapon types. This is why you may have noticed certain sword and shield units not holding their sword or shield when in a death animation. However, there is not only a limit on how many animations that can exist in the matched combat file, (299 entries for sword and shield for example) but also a limit to the immersion of the animation. For example, I can't modify a spear and shield animation to swap the spear for a sword due to the way that the weapon bones work. If I were to give a spear and shield kill animation to a sword and shield user, the actor's sword will always be invisible.

Any chance to add more animations? :)

Спасибо за ответ! :)

@i am fast as f boy After looking at the mod, it doesn't look like my mod will work with it. You can still use the two together, but the new unit types that Earl's mod adds won't have my animation set.

Конечно, мне очень нравится твой мод, но хотелось бы узнать о совместимости https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3148909626

@i am fast as f boy I'm not sure what you are referring to, could you post a link?

is this mod compatible with EARL collections?

@SrbLeX Yes, it is fully compatible with 1212 AD.

Is this mod compatible with 1212 AD ? Ty.

@Gladiator, No, but I have been working on a Rome 2 version that will be out sometime in the future. I'm not sure when though, as the two games are surprisingly different when it comes down to the way the animations work, so it isn't a simple "port it over" job.

@ARTX If you are referring to the battle realism mode in the game settings, the yes, it works with that feature. If you are referring to a battle mod, I am not sure, but it most likely is, as this mod doesn't modify any of the files that battle mods typically modify. As a general rule of thumb, load this mod above any battle mod to make sure that it works properly.

@RedBeard Funnily enough I recently updated the secondary death animations among other things, which in my opinion look a lot better now. Thanks for the kind words, I'm glad you are enjoying the mod!

@Coach, From what I can tell, yes it should be work with Anno Domini 1051 Beta. However, I cannot guarantee that it will work flawlessly as I have not tested it. Hope this answers your question!

Update: As of June 14, 2025, I have rewritten the code of the mod to allow it to work with Medieval Kingdoms, Ancient Empires, Vanilla Attila, and most other small scale overhaul mods without the need for separate versions. This means that going forward, you will not longer need the other versions of my mod. Make sure you put it at the top of your load order for it to work properly. Please read the compatibility section of the description for more details.

Does this work with the new, highly anticipated, Anno Domini 1051 Beta mod ?

I love this mod! The only thing that slightly bothers me is the secondary animations. Most soldiers just fall to the ground like planks. That looks kind of goofy but other than that the mod is amazing!

Can anyone recommend me mods that work well with this mod and also improve battle animations or add additional animations?

Is it compatible with realistic battle mode ?

brooooooooo someone plz make this compatiable with longer land battles. if feel like battles with this mod is SO fast, kidding me? it takes 1-2 minutes for a full unit to go missing

Do you have this mod for Rome 2 Emperor Edition ?

need fix

does this mod only increases more animations and less throwbacks?

make it fully compatiable with fireforged

It sort of works with Fireforged Empire mod but it's not too great.
Would love to see a compatibily mod made if you are still doing that.

is this compatible with the Fireforged Empire Mod?

great mod thx

@Undercooked Toast In hindsight, I probably didn't need to make so many different versions. As far as I remember, there are two differences between this mod and the 1212 version. The 1212 version has the 1212 "kv_rules" as well as a "foot_spear" matched combat fragment. I don't think I changed anything else, but I could be wrong as I haven't looked at it in a while.

Hello, can you explain why this version of the mod was incompatible with mk 1212? I have the version that is made specifically for mk1212 but I can't see that much of a difference in all honesty. I want to edit some files around myself using this version of the mod.

@WhiteSushiEater that was very helpful. Thank you for respone.

@adidasSlav As far as I know; trial and error. Essentially what I did was remove every animation from the animation fragment file except for one and test which one it was. To my knowledge, there are four decapitations for sword and shield units, atk_b_death_003, atk_c_death_002, sws_sws_form_death_002, and sws_sws_form_death_006. The corresponding kill version of the same animations are, def_2_kill_003, def_3_kill_002, sws_sws_form_kill_002, and sws_sws_form_kill_006.

You can find which kill and death versions correspond to each other by looking for one of the animations in the attila_generated.txt file, although you may want to look at the vanilla version of it as the one in this mod is modified. Hope this helps!

Hi, great mod! I have a question: how do you know which animation is which in PFM. For example, how do you know which animation is decapitation and which is not?
Thanks!

@Silen If you don't own the blood and burning dlc there won't be any blood.

there is no blood tho

@WhiteSushiEater Awesome! Thanks man!

@ChickenMan No I don't have one for the Medieval Warfare mod, although it seems that some people use this version of my mod when playing it. I haven't tested it personally but it may work fine.

@RedBeard Yep, it works with the base game and all of its official dlc's.

This work with Age of Charlemane, right?

you got one for Medieval Warfare mod?

@WhiteSushiEater thanks, maybe a fun thing to try figure out if time allows it. Would make an unique mod that adds that bit of visual aftermath

@Perpar Its probably possible, but I'm not sure how to increase the duration of the wounded animations.

@Taste of Capitalism That's a strange bug. I wouldn't think that anything I changed should affect that as I didn't mess with any of the models. Unfortunately, I don't have the dlc that unlocks the Jutes so I cant test it.

Inoticed unit lying wounded for long long times. is it possible increase te likelyness of units lying wounded instead of killed? (like shot with arrows or something)

hi, reporting bug. Royal huscarl lost their shield with this mod. Seems to be related with falx animation, because after I delete only falx animation part in this mod, shield normaly on royal huscarl.

@vladipa, Yeah, I agree. I wish that axes and swords didn't share animations. Unfortunately, CA didn't bother to make any axe exclusive animations and instead removed a majority of the sword animations from the axe matched combat file.

In principle, everything is fine, but axes are still pierced, which does not look very nice.

@TotalWarBattles I'm not sure but probably not. My guess is some of the animations will work, but others might not depending on how the mod is structured.

@Guvenoren Yes, it adds all the ones featured in Return to Glory as well as a few more.

is it compatible with the dawnless days?

Does this mod add the boatload of new animations featured in Return to Glory?
