The Diverse Artillery Mod version 1.3 is now released 4/4-2010.
This mod adds diverse Artillery units and changes existing units to give a more (IMO) realistic representation of Napoleonic era Artillery and also to diversify the different faction roosters. The mod is meant to be played on top a vanilla installation or among compatible mods. Therefore I try to construct it in a modular manner so it doesn’t overwrite unnecessary tables/files. That allows it to be easily included in mod compilations like the “Napoleon all in one mod” by ToonTotalWar.
In short I have:
- Adjusted projectiles table
- Implemented new projectiles.
- Increased distance for ½ chance hit.
- Added 21 new DAM Artillery units to the Major European Factions roosters (quick battle and European/Coalition campaign)
Changelog:
Version 1.0 |
|
Version 1.1: Test version only.
Version 1.2 |
Canister range decreased to 300meters due to gameplay issues. Other minor adjustments to Projectile table. |
Current Version 1.3
What's next: Implementation of further Artillery units and rework of minor faction’s roosters.
The mod is mod packed and I noticed a wish in this forum for 8 cannons per unit on ultra settings so the 8 cannon/howitzer version will be maintained (NTW_DAMx.y_8).
I have intentionally not down scaled the number of Howitzers in a unit to 1 or 2 as it would probably not be worth wasting an army/stack slot on. Instead I have capped the units in the range from 4 to 8.
Brig. Graham "Grand Battery Mod" compatible version of NTW_DAMx.y_8 is also uploaded. I will only maintain that as an 8 cannon/howitzer version to follow his unit size. The difference between this and the standard DAM is that the compatible version has all vanilla projectiles omitted from the projectiles table. Thanks to ToonTW for suggesting this.
For those who want to get hold on the "Grand Battery Mod" please follow this link: http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showthread.php?t=345376
To play use the attached script file (Alter it if playing with 8 cannon file) and place the .pack file in "Data" folder. Attached loc (unit_pack_compatibility_project_napoleon_v1_8_and_DAM1.3.pack) file shall also be placed in the Data folder for proper text in game. Remember to have only 1 loc file in the folder.
It is based on the UPC1.8 file with last five lines being the DAM units.
I hope that they can eventually be added to the continuously improved UPC project by Swiss.
Enjoy and have a nice week.
