could you update this to 4.2.1

Thanks

Updated for 4.0

4.0?

That'd be dope if ai does use it. Wonder how to find out

I don't think AI uses it, they probably stick to the vanilla options. But not 100% sure.

does this work for AI?

is there an sfo version of this?

Updated for 3.1

thank you again for the update! (feel like a broken record at this point XD

Updated for Version 3.0 :-)

ah no I doN't think it'll make ai op or anything. I mean as u said, ai is weak anyways. I was just making a mod myself that needs some techs to work for ai and wanted to ask if you know the ai is using newly added techs or not.

Hi Flamboyant. I think the AI can use them but I'll be honest I don't really know how the AI makes those decisions and it's not an area I looked into much. I wouldn't be too concerned about it making AI overpowered or them making good decisions... CA usually makes sure they don't ;-).

If you're not playing as a DE Lord I'd probably suggest disabling it, but even if you are I guess other AI DE Lords would maybe benefit from it. I'd imagine they're more likely to stick to the vanilla route, but honestly I've never attempted to validate it.

hello @Dioltas! I love your mods but I have a simple question. Is ai also using newly addded techs? I was sure of myself that it does but then I started adding techs for something else myself and couldn't find any tables that dictates the "quality" of techs for ai to force ai make choices easier.

Okay, thanks for the help

If you want an even easier suggestion though, you can actually view how any mod is made by downloading and opening it with RPFM. In RPFM just go to "Packfile" in top left corner, then "Open from Content" then select the mod you wish to look at it will show you the source code / changes. And you can easily modify it yourself or play around with it.

This mod will display as Dark_Elves_Technology.pack

In short, I've only added new stuff, and not changed any existing tech - which helps reduce any conflicts with other mods. But in terms of placing them on the UI it's just like a slot based system, and I fitted them in mostly within the design of the original DE tree. But you can also easily add entirely new columns and rows - it's more of a frontend or User-Interface thing with what position you assign them.

You can adjust that in the technology_nodes_links_tables and technology_nodes_tables.

@Dioltas, could you explain how you extend the vanilla tree, is there more to it than just adding or moving nodes?

Updated for the latest version (2.4 patch).

No idea @FlexEmperor, I've certainly not tested it or designed it to work with any overhaul system. It does only touch the research/tech tree though, so isn't high risk for incompatibility but if something else modified DE tech tree then it'll depend entirely on whether they just extended the vanilla (as I have done) or directly altered the original stuff too.

Hi, it work with radious?

It's been updated to latest patch, although I suspect it would work regardless, this just removes the annoying warning.

does it works in 2.3?

Dark Elves Global Recruitment Mod (which should work with the technology)

Hi Nocturnal there are some mods which allow Dark Elves to use Global Recruitment. I've used it with that, rather than putting it into my mod. But yeah I probably should update the listing and recommendation to benefit from that.

Hey loving the mod so far! Adding the extra techs for long games is really enjoyable. Idk if anyone referenced this but one of your techs (conscription) give -1 to global recruit of all units. Being the dark elves, you don't have the ability to global recruit making this tech useless. Will there be any changes to this being local? or plans to remove that part out?

any way to look at the techs without installing this?

Hey Kami, I've updated for the latest patch, hopefully your annoying alerts are gone now :-)

Update would be nice, dont think any changes are needed but warnings are annoying especially when you have a lot of mods to track.

Can you make a expansion on Rakkarth to make him and his faction better? With his chariot renown unit mentioning capturing slaves could you give his faction a slave capture buff and maybe movement speed? Rakkarth could use a bigger command aura to use his whip on the beasts, I tend to replace cavalry for monsters when I play him.

Thank for the tip! Will check that out. I usually also prefer vanilla stuff, but as the game got bigger, i think CA cannot manage it properly. So i need to use mods cause with reason being, why would you have tech tree and never reach the techs you want before campaign is over. Appreciate your mod and your tips!

Hey ArchAnge1LT yeah I can look at maybe reducing some that I added although I deliberately wanted to avoid editing any of the original/vanilla trees as this makes it more compatible with other mods.

You could also try something like this mod to give you faster research
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2790255541

I think there are also some mods that let you set the initial starting research, which would effectively allow you to remove just 1-2 turns from every node.

Glad you're enjoying the mod, and I agree completely it's frustrating to barely touch a research tree by the time a campaign is effectively done.

Btw really appreciate your mod, it is great!

Is it possible to reduce every node research time by 1? It takes way too long to research anything.

By turn 100 greenskins have almost all tree researched, or empire pretty much having all they want depending on their army comps.

By comparison, Dark elves have reworked crossbows, some growth and some random stuff, it takes almost 250 turns to get all the good things. CA have overlooked many things and some tech trees of some races take too long, you finish campaign long before you get your end units buffed.
