Make sure you guys download https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=115570455 to use this mod with working stairs! Otherwise some castle stairs are impassable!

I can;t figure out why this mod doesn't work for me. I even tried manually installing it but that didn't work either

awesome maps, but unfortunately the castle maps are too advanced for the AI

also, does it have to be in a particular order?

I used this mod years ago and it added village houses around the castle. pretty cool. but the pics here don't seem to show that anymore. has it changed?

update this please

can you update this mod plz..game crashes on loading when mod has been selected.thank you..

Is it important that the mod exists in 3 parts? I just combined it and seems to work fine as one .pack. Are there known issues when doing that?

for details read {LINK REMOVED}"http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showthread.php?t=560409"

can someone please tel me what this mod really does? I don't see any real changes to forts stronghold fortress castle and citadel. With land battles maybe increased elevations ect. the size and the overall terrain is the same as vanilla. what is the real difference.

Would be nice if this actually worked in fots

Is a new game required for this to take affect? So far i haven't seen any new maps. just castles

How does one actually get to fight within a town/castle settlement bits? I've put my armies sitting in settlements and outside castles but i always fight in a field still. I'm getting vanilla if i sit inside castles too.

@clop1000
A buddy and I have been playing them in Coop a lot. Primary things to note:
-Works fine, no special issue on performance
-There are a few corners that are tricky and units can get stuck on, but otherwise fine. The AI does have a tendency to assault stupidly sometimes though
-Nothing gamebreaking
-Compatible with Extended Japan, not sure about Strongholds

Does it work? What about game performance?

Does the AI can actually play on these new maps? Or just falls an easy prey to pathfinding algorithms? ))

Does it have some game breaking bugs?

is it compatible with Strongholds Of The Samurai and extended japan?

This mod makes me happy but sad because 1, they are beautifully designed, but its a cluster f**k trying to move units through all the tight spots and bad hit boxes of the buildings. Is there a fix for this?

Is a very nice map but the only issue is after a while it gets really boring because every castle is the same

i dont see any map differences

Is this mod compatible with DarthMod? Becouse I can see no difference between the maps.

Confirmed, works in coop. Vanilla and FoTS

Does this mod work in coop?

Works for FOTS as well. Definitely changes how you deploy and attack some of the castles

mods are cool arouf thx god you are the best gangster in the entire world i love you god arouf

Vanilla Campaign only?

the game keeps crashing on the siege map where the castle is surrounded by a river and it's on this one only.
any workarounds?

I've tried this mod on several maps and it works perfectly fine tbh. Plus now the castles are astonishing beautiful and much much more realistic (the houses and barracks around the walls).

Ok, about half the time that AI seems to get hung up on the fort map. However, these maps are so danged lovely that I'm not sure it matters. Seriously, I hope they hire you for the Shogun TW3! Thank you for this mod!

HardStrike - I have seen the original AI get very confused on one of the maps. I am going to test further. In case it isn't clear, you may need to turn down your graphics settings on older or low-tier computers to use this mode. However, it is worth downloading if only to see the gorgeous maps!

How many varieties are there for non-historic castles and towns? My friend and I are doing a Co-op game and have the same castle 8 times in a row and are honestly getting a little tired of it. Don't misunderstand, we really enjoy the mod and how it makes attacking castles harder and defending easier. Just checking to see how many designs there are

i dont think it will, because they pretty much both replace Catles, and forts, so you're gonna have to choose one

anybody knows if this will work with stronghold of the samurai???

Being away from the game for a while, just back to have another play-through, my favorite of all Total War games. This mod does really improve battles.

Regarding the HardStrikes comment on the working order of the mod, I will give it a test now and report back.
I'm sure the mod works, as I have used it since the game and mod was undated.
I will test to see if any units get stuck while using the largest unit count.

OH MY GOD. This mod really improves the look of the game by a great margin. Its look even resembles that of Attila or other newer total wars. Congrats, to the crator

To those still wondering, yes, it does work, i have castles with villages and alot of decorations, however, it is only of sieges. there would be no point in changing the normal battle maps because, you fight in plains. No, the AI doesnt get stuck in houses and no it doesnt make castles impossible to attack, you can still go on any side, more choke points for defenders to use, and that means cover for the attackers from arrows. MAKE SURE YOU HAVE ALL 3 PARTS.

i havn't seen any of these maps in any battles. i think the mod is dead and no longer works :/

can anyone confirm that this mod still works? great looking maps, but if there's a bug present that prevents stairs from working even with all parts installed, or if the AI doesn't move or gets stuck, that'd be unfortunate. can anyone with all three parts installed confirm or deny these bugs are present? would love to give this a try

Hm, no response? No download, sad :(

Do this mod still work? Because when i play played it the game is not responding and crash

Hey, the AI are consistantly placed in unstrategic and bunched up formations, and get stuck the majority of the time unless you attack them first! Could you do something about this?

First off, this mod is amazing. The map look beatiful.
I'm sure it work at one point but I guess some update may have broke this mod as of 4/20/2018

A.I would get stuck or not responsive. I would be force to sally out in order to force A.I to move closer to attack me. (I download all 3 part with no other mod)

yes sir

Hi, thanks for the mod, I prefer it already. Would be nice to Garrison buildings though, especially as that's something you have said is included.

Sadly causes cdt with DarthMod to me. Anybody else have the same problem?

Iwakuni fortress traps all my troops on the top floor because troops cant use stairs

Is this mod working with FOTS?

Can you use this for coop multiplayer?

Polecam serdecznie.

This mod worked for me for a few weeks, but after trying to save them to the data file for use during offline play, the mod manager always fails to download all three parts. Any suggestions for a fix?

Exactly which vanilla maps are replaced by this mod? I would like to know exactly what vanilla maps are replaced by this mod. I'm surprised it doesn't explain this in the description. One comment I read says it only replaces vanilla Forts and Strongholds, but nothing else. Is this correct?

@kaiquepoliche yes it does.
