Rome is absolutely perfect, IMAGINE the Remastered includes a 3 men Multiplayer campaign and everyone is playing a Roman faction and then civil war...... still dreaming about it
Wait. Danymok’s mod is compatible with ahowl’s map? Because it’s the only reason I don’t play the map; using Danymok’s units is a necessity for me these days! I wonder, does this mean the Barbarian Engineering mod is compatible too, because that’s built off Danymok’s mod. Now I really want to load up a game and see how they work!
@@stevencass8849 Danymok's mod doesn't work with Ahowl's map for me. It says in the launcher there's a conflict with the two, and I can't start any campaigns as a result.
Thanks Andy! When I released the Map it really was just for a modding resource, and a pre-cursor to the port of ahowl11s Vanilla Enhancement Mod. I didn't know it would end up being so much fun in it's own right! Glad you are enjoying it and thanks for the video! Leading RIS (with the awesome members of the team) and trailblazing to basically push RR to its limits is fun, but I too will never lose my interest for the smaller and simpler scale of what RR is and what can be done to spice it up without ruining the original feel. Also, I just wanna make a shout out to the Roma Surrectum 2 team who made the base map that I used. All I did was overhaul the regions to my liking based on my own research and desire to enhance each vanilla faction :)
@@AndysTake I don't know why they didn't make Rome remastered using the M2TW engine. That way they could have remastered two titles while fixing a lot more issues.
Look at how those phalanx pikemen are attacking at 0:14 - that animation looks straight out of Rome 1, but the models and textures are all from Rome 2 - can anyone explain this pls? :)
i think I just found my next set up for a playthrough on this. Been looking for the right mods to play Rome remastered with...and have not REALLY played the game yet (as I am playing a million other games plus the great and terrible game of adulting....) but this video just sealed the deal for me.
Do any of these mods put the General in the middle of the formation? Got spoiled to that in newer Total Wars. Great video I'll have to check these out they look like a good way to spice up the game.
It's great stuff. I tried a Roman campaign though and just going to have to wait until they get to that part of the map. Only rebels there. And, like, they wouldn't even attack me by leaving their settlement. So every battle was just a siege battle. It's fun if you play in Greece though. Or Anatolia.
My first play through on this was beyond epic. It took awhile to beat down the Carthaginians. But when I did, it felt amazing. Until I turned my attention to Gaul. Mother of God!! What a scare. I had no idea. They were fear inducing. They were like a green carpet across Europe. I even tried taking a sea route around them to work them from both sides. Nope. There too. What a campaign.
It's a pity that modern game developers have degraded so much that they can't even compete with their old games and mods for them. The market for strategy games has died, but the demand remains and players, due to the lack of something new, are rediscovering old classics through mods and remasters. Never underestimate old games) It's especially funny to see statements about the obsolescence of graphics - most new games, especially in the strategy genre, look like some kind of children's browser mobile game with cartoon people who beat each other up to cartoon sounds. Seriously, is this development? Is this 2024 and around it? After such crap I want to turn on any strategy game from 2004 or 2008 where the soldiers have stern, fierce square faces, the combat music lifts the spirit, and the death cries of the dying and the thundering cannonade of archers, cannons and swords with shields - just give me this and I won't need anything else in this life
I recently started playing Total War games again. Haven't done so in years. I chose to do this return with the original RTW. I'll give RTW Remastered a try soon after running a campaign or two. Make my way towards Shogun 2 and relive Creative Assembly's glory days.
I've played two type of large maps for this game. The first was by far the biggest map with far more regions. I think there was at least 17 regions in Italy alone. However, the issue with that map is that it didn't come with the Marius event so i stopped playing it which sucked as it's one of the best parts of Rome Total War. The second map is big, but less regions. Italy only has 2 other regions and the blue faction doesn't have any territory in sicily. The entire continent of the UK is visible on both maps unlike the original and north Africa has more territory to grab as well. This is the only time that the Seleucid Empire has actually survived that poor Numidia took first place for being removed in the game. I did have to cheat a little on the second map as i wasn't able to get the Rome United to work so i had to....kill the other 3 rome factions by code instead of the normal civil war. I do hope that i can get the Marius event to work on the first one though.
Yes even with my bronze age mod which has like 900 Provinces so far, that in no way makes in a good mod, if anything I should persevere to make it a good mod despite the provincial hurdle.
It does, when the problem ypu are trying to solve is "the map is too small". I'm not saying that the rest of the mod isn't incredibly important for the enjoyment of the mod, but the increased map ABSOLUTELY makes the game better all by itself. In OG rome any experienced player can conquer the whole map in a few hours. You barely have time to get really into it before its over. So having a map where defeating Carthage or conquering Greece or Gaul are, by themselves, longer campaigns than taking the whole map in vanilla is absolutely an improvement.
every province feels the same i feel like im playing a cock block simulator until something interesting happens i think having double the regions of rome total war would have been better but this? too much man modders megalomania at its finest
This looks like good fun. I still can't bear to play Rome Remastered because of the hideous mobile UI. If you find a mod to return PC designed UI make sure to feature it in a video for me. The campaign map lines mod you added is a great start.
Dude there's a map mod for Shogun 2 with Europe, Middle East, North Africa and India, but in the 6 months since its release, nobody seems to have made a Rome or Medieval or Napoleon mod. What's happening?
If anything I'd say the map in the base game is fine in terms of size. If anything I tend to find the game rather boring by the time you get to the mid or late game in most campaigns because you eventually reach a point where the computer lacks any ability to really check your empire's growth as far as military expansion is concerned. Though I suppose part of that is because the computer tends to be both less aggressive than a human player would be and is also rather dumb at times. In a VH/H campaign I'm doing as the Brutii, I'm currently scratching my head over the fact the Scipii have over 60 units stationed near Capua. Admittedly there probably pretty messed up from me expanding into Syracuse and Carthage, but you think the senate would have either sent them to Iberia or Egypt at some point as they built up multiple full army stacks. They even have another full army worth just sitting in Sicily. Though I'm still kicking myself a bit over being beaten to the Statue of Zeus by the Scipii. I got a little too distracted taking other parts of Greece and Africa. And am currently involved in wars with Spain, Carthage, Pontus, Thrace, and Numidia. Admittedly Carthage and Numidia are kind of non-threats at this point. In the case of Carthage they only have on settlement left in Iberia and I'm about to siege Numidia's capital. And I seriously doubt Numidia is going to put up a major fight from those two garbage settlements in the middle of nowhere. I suppose they could rise again from Siwa, but I doubt Numidia can beat the forces of Egypt without help from the player. And Thrace never expanded past their starting settlements. In fact, I kicked off that war to ensure I was the one who got Byzantium first.
Can someone tell me what spec pc/laptop I'd need to use these days in order to play games like Rome TW or other high resolution Sim type games or flight Sim like Microsoft flight Sim and which VR would work best with those types of games.
Rome 1 had better gameplay in many people's opinion, but it was limited. Now it is way less limited for mods in terms of map size, # of settlements, and # of factions
what modders do 1-improve games 2-correct fails done by the dev 3-THEY LISTEN TO YOU!.....what Devs do : 1- they ruin their own games 2- they think only how to get more money from you..........R2 TW is a fucking failure, they didnt know how to improve AI so they give it more cheat power, salute to modders
I loved, and hated this game because no matter how I tried to calm dissent my cities would always revolt at the worst possible times forcing me to divert troops away from battles, and thereby losing progress made as the enemy would suddenly appear with massive armies pulled from thin air I imagine. Gaul two cities left, then suddenly twenty armies are at my doorstep.. how? Even with scouts watching the borders, massive armies suddenly emerge from out of nowhere.. I think I managed to win win once, and conquered the Senate.
UI is game braker for me. I am so sory it looks like this. I do not understan it. It is like they wanted it to look as shity as posible. Can't belive stil. IS THERE MOD TO CHANGE UI?????
@@pyroparagon8945 It improves on things like AI and pathfinding but the best thing is the modding support and removal of limits. Just note since a lot of people complain about that the UI may be worse and might turn you off while I think there are some pros and cons but the overall package makes it worth it in the end.
Unfortunately, I don’t think you can mod Rome 1 mobile. I’d love to be be proven wrong; I use mods for Civ VI on my iPad, but I haven’t found anything that says you can use mods on TW on mobile.
Id like to love ROme again but its just objectively worse in every way compared to Medieval 2. If you much prefer the rome setting, thats fine, but in any other metric, its just worse and so much less complex. Especially if we compare it to stainless steel
Can you explain further to someone who loves modding RTW and lost interest in M2TW altogether? I’d like to know what I can do to make it more tempting to play
@@Felix-tp8chi have heard that its heavy and has a ton of bugs though. Have these been fixed or something? When I mean heavy, I mean like way different than vanilla M2TW
Does anyone else find Rome Remastered with tihs mod especially is that the animations are really clunky? like the fights and battles look really shit. Is that just me?

Literally the only thing it's missing is mercenaries, there are no mercenary pools in any of the regions 🤭
Hey while the video creator failed to leave links you your mod, perhaps you can? Can't find it in the steam workshop by search.
Rome remastered is all the total war I need nowadays. That is until Dawnless Days releases or Med 1212AD gets a big update
If only they made a multiplayer campaign for this...

Some textures are but most of it is homemade by the modders of RIS.

Try again , now You have a Lot of new faccións and actualization 💪🏼
Just tested it out and Danymok's Extended Unit Roster is in conflict with the Vanilla Enhancement map and won't start a campaign as a result.
Sorry to break it to you, but Vanilla Enchancement Map v1.0 is not compatible with Rosters Expanded mod.
Can you add all the mods in your description :) Some of them seem to conflict...can't use 150 units + Standalone graphics mod together...
Does the 150 units + Vanilla Enhancement map work? Doesn't for me.
