can you expand all greek factions not just some mainland greeks?

Hi! I would like to use this mod in my Overhaul! Would it be ok?

any change you can do some for germanic and others?

This mod surprisingly still works an I love it

update pls not works anymore

Work fine!? Seriously!? How does this mod survive the challenge of patch 19?

mod works fine

Please update.

:c why are the thorax spartan units weaker than other greek thorax units?

Mitch's mod manager, available on Total war center is the only reasonable way and yes, this mod still works

you can ignore the outdated thing. hit 'allow out of date mods' and then just click it and stop pestering the fucking guy

can you upload please?

Well when i start up the game and look at the mods it has the outdated ! on it.

If this is just a case of miscommunication, and you see in the mod title "Patch 15" and assume it wont work because that's not the most recent patch, or because the R2 mod manager puts a big yellow sign over my mod; don't be discouraged. Unit packs are pretty patch survivable, and unless CA gutted the game balance again things should be relatively fine.

Some users have recommended using a third party mod manager for R2 instead of the inhouse one, you can find one pretty easily on TWC I think I just don't remember the name of it off the top of my head.

To elaborate, if two mods use the same resource, EG a texture for armor or what have you, and one of those mods modifies it without renaming it, then this can cause a crash. One mod doesn't seem to win out over the other and the change is not simply used for both, I've had to tag all of my files to try to reduce the chance of conflicts with other mods. It can't be helped though if they import something from mine, change it, and keep the same tags, which is a possibility given my mods are open source.

If you are getting a crash on startup for R2, then you need to isolate which mod might be causing it. If you have absolutely 0 other mods, including ones that aren't on the workshop or activated through the launcher (like a movie pack file), and your game crashes when you use my mods, then I'm a bit stumped but I'd look into it. I do not think that is the case since some people are able to launch their games with my mods, the most common cause I've had for CTD"s on startup came down to conflict with other mods. They would share resources with mine, specifically using resources from my mod or from other mod makers and then modifying them.

All that said I don't get much free time these days, I usually spend it sleeping, so putting a couple hours in developing a mod after work isn't feasible for me, nevermind actually playing the game.

Heh, okay, after a 100 'update pls' messages let me just say, I am occupied with work full time right now. Working retail during the holiday season. Simply asking me to update the mod without telling me what's wrong or what's not working means I have to play test them all which I don't have time for. The mods still work, as far as I can tell from comments, working for some, not for others. If there is a specific issue you are having, or if one of the new patches either modified unit recruitment, made a unit obsolete, or something like that, please tell me in the comments. It's easy enough for me to load up the pack file manager and adjust table values iby comparing them to the vanilla ones, if it's something like that. I do not have time however to play test or add new content. As it stands I still need to empty my data folder and reinstall my other mods (not the unit packs) to even get the game to run since the patch before the new DLC broke my other personal use compilations.

dat entitlement doe

Is this updated or not? And if not, get to it Smarmy.

the bactria update gets rid of my bactrian peltasts in custom and campaign and I can't figure out why for the life of me. Any idea? I want my afghani skirmishers, damnit.

Dude update this freaking mod already! This is a good mod and i don't want to see it go to waste. So hurry up and update it.

Im one of your best promoters of your Mod

Works for me. I suggest using Mod Manager by Mitchel Heastie that can be found on the TW Center site.

PLEASE UPDATE!

Please need this awesome mod updated for patch 16. It gives us so many awesome looking units

has anyone tried to continue an post-patch16-campaign with this mod? sadly its not updated for the newest patch and i have an armenian legendary campaign going which i dont want to corrupt. i really like the unit variety given by this mod and i appreciate your work but could you plz update it if possible? or is it save to use this mod with patch 15 savegames?

pls update

Please update.

Please update this mod. It's a good mod and i don't want to see it just get left behind.

pls update pls

update pls

this mod only adds new units, right???

Hey Smarmy ! First of all, i'd like to say your units packs are all excellent, and the initiative of creating an all-in-one mod is greatly appreciated. However, i'd like to point our that some units still have their odd vanilla look, while others get that cool reskin of yours.
I'm actually thinking about Thorax Swordsmen : Bactrian and Spartan swordsmen look awesomely cool with their greek-style chainmail, while Athens' and Syracuse's still carry on with their odd celtic mail. Do you think you could give them a more Greek-like feeling ?
Thanks, and keep up the good work !

hi i play with carthage but the axe units doesn't work i cant recruit this units and the baleares warriors too. it works for you??

Well done! :)

The only thing I would love to chang is the armor of the libyan infantry from Carthage to a complete white armor like the naval hoplites from Athen have it and their shields (from Athen).
Until now they look like they are from the Middle Ages in every version...
A lot of Carthage fans would love it!


So if its possible and you have some time for it it would be great.

I am submitting a formal request to have little modder babies with you. Please respond with your answer.

AMAZING! You are the best unit modder for this game! Thanks so much!

this needs a extra submod to increase unit sizes by about x1.5

Will you add the Dahae nobles and riders to Parthia and Massagetae too pls?

Will it work with Champloo gold?

ahhh crap this mod removed the units that the athens mod gives syracuse this aint gunna fly

Big fan of the work you've done, Smarmy, especially the Pontus roster, which is lacking in vanilla, to say the least. I hope that you have plans to expand your work into factions that have been severely neglected unit-wise by CA, most prominently: Galatia, the Odrysian Kingdom, and Ardiaei. I would cut-off my left foot for an overhauled Galatia roster, since they're in such an interesting place to play, but have such a tiny selection of units.

compitible with Radious ?

cuas when i launch game it just starts up it dosent bring me to a luanch screen or anything is that cuas im on a mac not windows plz help

i dont have a rome 2 luancher it just loads up the game when i click play what do i do is it like a setting or something or is it cuas im on mac plz help

the only reason i ask is because for some reason when i play as syracuse i get the expanded roster for athens and it makes playing as syracuse way more enjoyable

as always smarmy you are great with your subscribers thanks for replying i look forward to the day when i can download a mod for eygpt and syracuse

@Surgie
My mods should be compatible with all other mods, just when my mod tries to modify the same thing as another mod, like a vanilla units stats, or an appearance, one mod will overwrite the other. The only possible cause of a crash I've encountered is when other mods attempt to use my resources and then modify them without changing their name. For example they like one of my variantmeshes for armor, or a texture I'm using, maybe one of my texture modifications. They import it into their own pack, change it, but leave the name the same. So when our two mods load, conflict happens.

@Flea
I think so? Most of my mods are in Toons I think.

@Joe
Already working on Egypt for one, but nothing definitive. I don't have much free time so I change bits and pieces here and there in one of my personal mod pack files.
