To add onto the developer kam2150 fix for windows 11 issue if you dont want to have to set the affinity each time via task manager you can try a program called processlasso to save the cpu affinity for specific program i.e. Rome2.exe or if you feeling fancy and competent write a powershell script with a task scheduler if you have the know how

Am I the only one experiencing this? That building would be important to keep banditry at bay . I'm stuck with my otherwise very fun campaign :(

i also tried with the standalone version but the bug is still there

for some reason i can build "fortified garrison" only in Iuliobona

Hi kam2150, thanks for responding, what happens is what you tell me what really happens, leaving aside the thing about the buildings, which well if it was not programmed like that who knows, what happens is that the AI ​​does not affect it at all, I mean on top of that the mod is difficult, only more BAD AND REALISTIC THINGS of the mod affect the player. I am playing with Epirus and Sparta sends me a fleet without supplies and yes 0 wear and tear and so on with the economy and blah blah blah but far from that I value the mod, the delivery and the dedication, any solution for the above?

loading order is correct

and iin some random regions i can't build fountains

Hello. really appreciating the mod.
But in the line of building "Ager publicus" i can't build The IV level of "Station vigilum" wich is "fortified garrison"
I researched the technology "advanced barracks construction" but i can't even select the 4th level. the onlòy thing that appears is the convert/Dismantle button

You are probably on Win11, sadly MS messed up last system update and it affects multiple games.

To fix if, try below:

1. Launch the Game – Start Total War: Rome II
2. Open Task Manager
Press Ctrl + Shift + Esc to open Task Manager.
Alternatively, you can right-click on the taskbar and select Task Manager.
3. Go to the Details Tab
In Task Manager, click on the Details tab at the top.
Look for rome2.exe in the list of running processes.
4. Set CPU Affinity
Right-click rome2.exe and select Set Affinity from the dropdown menu.
5. Unselect Some CPU Cores
A window will appear showing which CPU cores the game is using.
Uncheck a few cores (for example, if you have 6 cores, uncheck CPU 9 to 11).
Click OK to apply the changes.
6. Resume the Game

This fix can be applied even if game already froze.

Mod causes the game to crash. Let me explain, fresh PC, obviously the first thing I did was install Rome Total War 2. Plays like a charm with the brand new CPU and graphics card. Awesome, now DEI. Download the most up to date mods, install like I normally do, run the game and boom. Complete black screen of death anytime I try and fight a battle. The rest of the game works, just the moment I click that assault button it completely crashes. Already completely reinstalled, not through steam but via the website, still nothing. If I remove the mod, the game works as intended... Completely out of ideas here so if anyone has anything please let me know

totally not a nurgle worshipper, try deleting Launcher folder in game folder and in AppData (something like C:\Users\Admin\AppData\Roaming\The Creative Assembly\Launcher).

Then verify game files.

You can also try to download the mod from our website, its in 2 parts there and has 2-3 times faster load times.

Because game has physics based trajectory so the closer the target is, the smaller velocity of projectiles to not overshot. There are like 11 different variables that dictate accuracy of missiles.

why does the speed of javelins and arrows become slow when the unit is close to the enemy?

so like part 3 just wont load. all the other parts work but the last one never loads. iv tried reinstalling didn't work doing a clean wipe of Rome two didn't work. can anyone help me?

Pagliacci, AI does not know how to dismantle buildings so if there were barracks in area AI just conquered, it will leave them. CA never coded AI to understand it needs to make food or public order. If you would make a building that has -1000 food and -1000 Public order, AI would build it without a second thought. Also AI does suffer from lack of supplies, in some areas you can really use it to your advantage.

Of course, new update will be out soon as open beta, we still have few years left of stuff we want to do.

is this mod still being worked on? last update was in 2024

I want to file a complaint, I love the mod EVERYTHING but the AI reaches a point where it only builds military things, no food, no resources, NOTHING, just barracks, that is, there are AI cities that have less than eleven food, it takes away a lot of realism from the fact that it doesn't suffer wear and tear due to lack of supplies

Is there any forum where you can download a complete German translation for the mod?

why cant carthage have archers as garrisons? javelinmen suck

It appears that whatever bug/issue was causing it is resolved now. I am able to load my saves and no longer get that DLC pop up message. Also, thank you @kam2150 for being so responsive on this thread!

Its not mod related, there is a massive issue affecting Rome 2 DLCs at the moment.

After activating the mod, a bug appears to me which does not take off or reinstalling the game in this congratulates me for a purchase of DLC and asks me to restart the game and even do nothing to change

DAMN YOU CA!!!!!!!!

gh0st_inthe_SYSTEM03, you don't need part 3 if you have downloaded it from the website. Basically Steam has some file size limits so we did not need to split it that much on our website.

Yes, it affects many people now, hopefully Steam/CA will fix it soon.

Same problem here, is something with the base game or the cloud, the mod has nothing to do with it

Hi @Kam. I tried manually downloading the DEI mod from your official site and I can say that in terms of the custom battles and its performance, there was some slight improvements. I noticed less frame drops depending on where you're focused on the battlefield and yes, there still are some bottleneck issues here and there but all in all, I can vouch for the things you said. Also, I have been experiencing the weird DLC pop-up error everyone is talking about. For the loading times, Im yet to actually fully test it but as of now, Im taking your word for it. Oh and before I forget, do I need to download part 3 besides downloading parts 1&2 from your site? Thanks!

Same thing here. I can´t load the DEI savegames, and I´ve received the pop up thanking me for buying a DLC and asking me to restart the game.

Or something to do with Steam, hopefully will be fixed soon.

I also got a pop up thanking me for buying DLC but at least nothing was disabled.

uhum, then CA making some issues..

Apparently many people have that issue today, got more reports.

Verify game files, maybe will help. I heard some rare cases where DLCs sort of disabled for not reason.

something happend, my saves with Epeiros just gone. when i start the game it says i need to download something from the dlc section.. wtf?!

Download the mod from our website, it has 2-3 times faster load times.

Steam does not store mods in efficient way while manually downloaded mods are placed in the game directory.

loads are pretty huge buzz kill

Thanks for for your reply

Well mod that adds a ton of textures, models, in-unit variety and huge units sizes will run worse than the base game.

Nothing will be changed in that regard but you, as a player, can improve it. E.g. even my previous PC from 2015 could run it at stable 45 FPS on ultra unit size with 2v2 battle, my current 4 year old PC runs it at 60 FPS in 2v2 on ultra.

Even stuff like manually installing the mod from our website can make it run better, becaue Steam workshops does not store mods in efficient manner, e.g. manually installed DeI has 2-3 times shorter load times.

You can visit Discord to get some more tips.

There are of course always some odd hardware configs where people even with great PC or same PCs have completly different performance.

@kam2150

hi , the mod runs horribly bad (battles fps )
even Attila runs far better :D

Rome 2 extreme benchmark is 120 fps

2 vs 2
in the hottest spot 65 fps

with Dei

even before clashing in battle 2 vs 2
medium unit sizes
60 fps
when clash starts drops to 35 !!!

please support

kam2150 - Cheers bud I will pop over to Discord and reach-out!

From Kam, its helped others on Win11 with crashing issues.

1. Launch the Game – Start Total War: Rome II
2. Open Task Manager
Press Ctrl + Shift + Esc to open Task Manager.
Alternatively, you can right-click on the taskbar and select Task Manager.
3. Go to the Details Tab
In Task Manager, click on the Details tab at the top.
Look for rome2.exe in the list of running processes.
4. Set CPU Affinity
Right-click rome2.exe and select Set Affinity from the dropdown menu.
5. Unselect Some CPU Cores
A window will appear showing which CPU cores the game is using.
Uncheck a few cores (for example, if you have 6 cores, uncheck CPU 9 to 11).
Click OK to apply the changes.
6. Resume the Game

Now if the above doesnt work, Chipset Drivers & GPU Drivers, ensure all are up to date. Then ensure all .NET and legacy .NET are installed - done via Windows Update and Control Panel\Program & Features\Enable or Disable Windows Features.

My version of Win11: Windows 11 Pro N 24H2

thank you kam2150. I have not tried this yet as I've just gone and bought the halo games for some nostalgia but will be coming back to your beautiful mod in the coming weeks and let you know if this works.

I cant play rome 2 without your work, its truly the best and far surpasses other mods. I think i must have about 1500 + hours in the game purely using it.

P.S any chance of Pyrrhus reskin please?

@kam2150 : You are absolutely right, I am on Win11.

I have just tried your workaround and so far so good ! Thanks for your quick response.

i love you kam2150

DASMEXX Got the Cards, you can do that on Discord, official Public Beta should be out soon-ish too.

Both of you are probably on Win11, sadly MS messed up last system update and it affects multiple games.

This fix can be applied even if game already froze.

Same as the previous comment. I have no other mods or sub-mods installed, and yet the game usually crashes when I try to load a battle during the loading. (80% of the time).

I have tried all the solutions below :

- Reinstalling the game
- Verify game files
- Reinstalling the mod from Steam
- Installing the standalone version

None of the above worked. :/

crashing constantly/freezing for battles in loading screen - no sub mods. New issue I have not encountered ever. Have tried total reinstall and verifying games files etc- loading/placement of mods all correct.

Thanks @Kam2150 for responding -
Right ill warm up the popcorn and sit wait patiently while you guys cook!

Any Beta Testing positions available? would be more than happy to contribute as iv been playing this mod since it released with just shy under 2K Hours.

All the best to the wider team.

Usually when someone says he has submods that should not conflict, that person indeed has submods that do conflict. Best to post it on discord with all required details, e.g. which faction vs which faction, which city, FULL list of submods etc.
