Total War General Discussion Thread: Shogun to Rome 2!

I must say its pretty amazing large armies. Good economics, relations are realistic. You can even play with America, not in campaign though

[Phillyz]

Sounds interesting and pretty cool, may have to try it out for myself sometime.

I can't find an NTW workshop. Is there not one?

[AeroNinja]

Do you mean NTW steam workshop? If so, no NTW doesn't have one. Though on Moddb, you can find most of the NTW mods. NTW3, Darthmod all these big famous mods are on there.

[Toffee]

Okay thanks which is better though, NTW or darthmod?

[AeroNinja]

If you like long battles, realism and improved multiplayer. I would say NTW3

If  you want a really sick campaign and special effects aswell as large infantry units and biggest armies I would say Darthmod.

It's all about personal taste. I'd say try both out. They both are really worth it. On a note, I must say NTW3 battles do take a lot of time due to the muskets are far from being accurate. Realism in that mod is a wee bit overdone.

[Toffee]

Okay I'll try both, thanks

[Phillyz]

Ah, well fair enough. I'll try this out as soon as possible.

[Toffee]

I downloaded the darthmod installer for NTW off of ModDB. I tried to install the mod but it can't find my Napoleon.exe folder? It's routed to my NTW steam folder but there's nothing in it? Any ideas?

[Phillyz]

I'll install it now as I didn't get time to earlier, and see if I encounter the same problem you're having.

[Toffee]

thx babe

[Dazzer]

Ntw3 would be amazing for me... If it didn't just crash in the middle of a battle

[Phillyz]

Right, Toffee. I've downloaded the Darthmod, and after I did that, it was saved into my downloads folder, when I looked there was a blue drive looking icon with an administrator shield above it. I've doubled click it and it just installed it onto my desktop.

So I've either not downloaded and installed the same Darthmod which you downloaded, or mines installed itself differently.

[Toffee]

I think the issue is that I don't have an NTW file which contains Napoleon.exe. It wants me to save it into there. The issue is I don't know where 'there' is :/

[Phillyz]

That sucks.
