Renaming the ages can be done with scripting, as for making it a CTW campaign you have to make your own CTW map for that, can't help you there as graphic design is my one "Achilles Heal" when it comes to modding, as for the rest of the stuff it's simple a matter of modding the unitrules and buildingrules files, I can give you a hand if you get more specific ideas like exactly what units you want to make and where, what there names/stats/costs should be, again if you want new skins for those units I can't help much other than to suggest you download some skins other's have made and ask their permission to use them, I can't draw skins but I do know how to implement them into unitgraphics, so let me know.

Sounds a lot like Rise of the Ancients Medieval style , I did work on a preliminary Medieval Mod, never finished it....still have some skins lying around from it......I think I really outdid myself with a Teutonic knight I made haha Maybe I will resume work on this soon.

very good idea

maybe i can help you making units you already see my Templars Skins xD

yeah, ill help you! (if u let me of course xD)

i can make a HRE units, and a French units, we can make new units and not replace, i can make new units for all the factions, i can make a pikeman for the French other for the HRE, and like that with all the factions and units

you count with my help, super

Any suggestions for nations? And about the nation names I was thinking of using that technique for changing names through the ages. This would mean for example the Anglo-Saxons would become the English in the Medieval Age.

well i suggest you a faction called Crusaders, may can work or other faction...like Venice, and the Mongols, what you say?

also you can includes the Moors and the Castilians, who in that epoch was in a bloody war in iberia is just my opinion...

i think you can includes:

- Venice or the Papals
- Castilians and Moors

and the names i think is a great idea, could be this:

- Carolingian Empire, Holy Roman Empire (or just HRE)
- Kingdom of Castilla, Kingdom of Castilla and Leon
- Kingdom of France
- Normands Countys, Kingdom of England
- Moors, Kingdom of Al-Andaluz
- Kingdom of Scotland
- Orient Roman Empire, Latin Empire, Bizantine Empire
- Teutons, Teutonic Order, Teutonic States
- Turks Nomads, Turks Seljulks, Ottoman Turks
- Fatimí Caliphate, Ayubi Dinastie, Ottoman Egiptians
- Vikings Danish, Kingdom of Denmark
- Tribus Mongols, Golden Horde

What you say, is my opinion, but is your mod, you say i think is great like this xD

Yes I'm adding the Castilians and the Moors to my list. Instead of having the Crusaders as a nation I'll give nations that took part Crusader units at the temple. I'm not sure if I should have the Teutonic order or if I should put them under the Papal States.

I won't have the Carolingian Empire because I'm setting this mod just after the splitting of the Carolingian Empire.

now i see, and is better now, more factions and more cultures, this could be one of the best mods medievals of RoN. xD

look these names:

- Castilian: Kingdom of Castilla and Leon
- Aragonese: Crown of Aragón
- Hungarians: Kingdom of Hungary
- Papal States: Papal States
- Lithuanians: Pangans Kingdoms of Lithuania
- Welsh: Welsh Countys
- Swedish: Kingdom of Swedish
- Ottoman Turks: Ottoman Turks
- Russians: Kingdom of Novgorod, Kingdom of Kiev, Moscovia
- Polish: Kingdom of Polony
- Seljuks: Seljuks Dinastie
- Bizantines: Latin Empire
- Saracens: Fatimi Caliphate
- Holy Roman Empire: Holy Roman Epire
- Danish: Vikings Kingdoms
- Scots: Kingdom of Scotland
- English: Kingdom of England, Normands
- French: Kingdom of France

PS. I alredy start make skins xD ill upload images...

I'm not really sure when I get started and I'm not really sure if I can complete such a big mod. Nevermind. Perhaps when I have a good enough idea of nations and units I'll start

[This message has been edited by super7700 (edited 10-08-2010 @ 09:37 PM).]

i can start to make the units in any time, you just have to tellme

PS. i am in the team?

This looks like a good concept. One suggestion, though - if you're doing a medieval mod with three ages, why not use the traditional Early Era, High Era, Late Era division? I'm excited to see how this progresses.

Yep Andres. And Mythic, can you tell me when these three ages were set? Because I want to cover the late dark ages, the early and late middle ages. So pretty much 900 - 1500 AD.

UPDATE: I've just completed a Teutonic Knight but I can't upload it yet because when I close it and open it again, it is very buggy and there are lines going across bits of the texture and it looks very dodgy. Does anyone know why I may get these issues with the tga? I have Paint Shop 5 which does support tgas.

Ok, Thanks for include me in the team xD

well, about your problem, i answer you in the other post you made

Early: 476-1000
High: 1000-1300
Late: 1300-1500

I'll probably do that and include the Carolingians as the early Holy Roman Empire for the CTW.

And I fixed the Teutonic Knight and I think its pretty good. You'll see it in my skin pack. I have a screenshot included.

i make units for the HRE!

ill upload images... soon, i get ready the pikeman, javelineer and the crossbowman

i will make the light cavalry, and i can find the heavy horse archer

Are they templars? And if you want you can just post some pics on this page. I might try to make a Teutonic Order man at arms or something.

no... they are soldiers: a pikeman, crossbowman, javelineers and a Light Cavalry...



individual pics, for a better look of the units...



This are not hte final skins, i wait for super decision, but there still need some details, i dont put in for some reasons

[This message has been edited by AndresV5021 (edited 10-09-2010 @ 07:12 PM).]

Nice they are very good! Can you think of any other nations to include for this mod?

[This message has been edited by super7700 (edited 10-09-2010 @ 07:22 PM).]

of course, how i tell you i think republic of venice could be added

or firenze? or milano who was an a commercial empire

you also can include Kingdom of Jerusalen, or Antioch Principality (or whatever xD) i think...

and what about more then just one crusader faction? i like so mucho the templars and i can more then just that skins

or the kingdom of portugal?

i think that are all the factions of the Medieval age...

Should I merge the Seljuks and the Ottomans into one race?

If I do I need 4 more nations to make the maximum of 24 nations. So what is your pick?

[This message has been edited by super7700 (edited 10-09-2010 @ 08:12 PM).]

4 nations more?

well... here more nations ideas

-> Kingdom of Jerusalem
-> Duchy of Milano
-> Republic of Venice
-> Kingdom of Sicily
-> Kingdom of Georgia
-> Order of Temple
-> Order of Malta
-> Cavaliers of Santiago
-> Kingdom of Poland
-> Duchy of Moscovia
-> Kingdom of Norway
- Republic of Firenze
- Kingdomn of Portugal
- Irish Kingdom

And out of europe...

-> Shogun of Japan
-> Empire of China

you say...

PS: i was thinkin in mod the civilians skins for every nation... what you say?

2PS: for a little trouble with some files of the RoN, i need reinstall, but ill do that tomorrow

[This message has been edited by AndresV5021 (edited 10-09-2010 @ 08:29 PM).]

Lets say you are only allowed to pick 4 more nations for this mod. Which four of those do you think are the most important. And the Templars, Hospitallers and other orders are covered by the papal states. I made the Teutonic knights a separate nation because the had a lot of territory.

PS: The HRE guys are awesome! I love the shields with the eagle especially. Are you doing a knight for the Holy Roman Empire?

PS2: Have you seen my Teutonic Knight in my skin pack?

[This message has been edited by super7700 (edited 10-09-2010 @ 08:54 PM).]

I demand something that emulates the vassal system! XD

The CTW could use the Vassals because there was a lot of vassal stuff in those times.

i can pick 4? wow, thanks xD

well...

i think we could add the duchy of milano, the will get the Power of Commerce...

if you want we can also include the republic of Venice, and could had the Power of the Republic...

and i believe we could add the kingdom of jerusalem, but only if you want. (this is optional)

the duchy of moscovia the maybe the can had the power of the revolution...

and if the jerusalems is dont include, then the kingdom of portugal, the power of the sea (or the navy, or something like that) because they was an empire in the sea...

thats mi opinion, but is your choice

PS. about the knight... no, because a lose the backup, but i have to reinstall the RoN, ill do that tomorrow...

2PS. about the teuton, yes, is pretty good better then my knight xD
