The Portal to Another Realm

[Phoenixguard09]

Most of you know me.  I've been here since the last day of 2010 and have been climbing up the ranks to eventual world dominati- ahem. Sorry um, M&B Moderatorship hopefully.

I've enver really done all that much.  Just a little bit of tweaking for personal reasons.  Until recently I couldn't texture, still can't really model, can't make new maps because Thorgrim's Map Editor won't open and I'm only an indifferent coder, but I am offering this to the M&B Modding community in the hopes that one day I may be able to release something that can indeed be called a proper mod. 

Extended Factions is just a tweaked Native. 4 New Factions for the moment, lots of cool new items from various OSP's and occasionally some new stuff.  In reality its hard to call this anything other than a balancing test I suppose, and an attempt to introduce some pretty cool factions. 

NEW PROGRESS LIST:
Implemented new factions: 15 factions more or less working in SP with another 5 completely implemented in MP.
New Towns: Pretty much complete.
New Castles: Are in the process of being done.
New Villages: Are in the process of being done. On the plus side, all of these new locations are named, either seriously or with some rare inside jokes that generally will go unnoticed unless you speak the language. Oh, except for Daimyo Suzuki of the Nihon Shogunate. That was just me being silly.
New Lords: 100%
New Ladies: 100%
Troop trees: 100%
Outfitting Troops: Probably about 70%. MP troops are complete, SP troops... some are copies of the Swadians....   I'm working on it.   
Reinforcements and all that stuff: Done
New Items: 100% I think.  Many new items are already included, mainly from OSP packs.  The Quetzl Tribes need new helmets.  On the other hand, thanks to Negro of Serbia, Zimke Zvoljni and Rigadoon, we're getting there.
Recolour Existing Factions: 100%
New troops for existing factions: 100% but I will gladly take suggestions from others if they wish for a certain troop in game. In fact please give suggestions as I want this mod to be for everyone.  Ask Negro of Serbia.   I won't bite.  Most of the time...
New Landmass: Pretty much complete. I have had sea travel before the "Incident." This will be redone before the new release.
New Claimants: 20%. It has been started but is on hold until I get in touch with Jubal.

THE INTREPID TEAM:
Phoenixguard09: General: Scripting and implementing other people's awesome work.
Dia151: Standard Bearer: Banner maker and general, all-round art man.
Negro of Serbia: Weaponsmith: Ideas man, modeller, damn good at everything.
Uhtred Ragnarson: Loremaster: Writer who's work will be included in later releases.
Zimke Zvoljni: Armourer: Main modeller and texturer.
Rigadoon: Blacksmith: Modeller.
Demonwolf: Cartographer: The awesome new map.

RELEASES:

http://www.mbrepository.com/file.php?id=2449

Ok the first release is but a beta.  Or an alpha.  As far as I know they're just assigned arbitrarily.  A little buggy and the single player's a bit off.  (Only Lyonesse have the right troops and apparently all the new places are screwed)  But at least you'll be able to see the map and play multiplayer.  And see the new items of course.

Ok here's the image I posted about earlier.  Now with the Euriae.  

[Silver Wolf]

Good job ! I'd give it a try, but unfortunately I don't have Warband...

However, I'll be tracking your progress... Good luck !

[Phoenixguard09]

Thanks Silver Wolf.  There will be a new release soon hopefully.  One that will have a proper Single Player.

Hail Dimos, Lord of all Europe, Modder Extraordinaire and Creator of Massively Over-the-top Titles!  

Wow this is off-topic. But it's somewhat fun.  So continue if you wish.

[Duke Dev]

Great mod it is the only one I play. 

Provided it is the only I have,  but that means nothing. 

[Phoenixguard09]

Thanks mate.  I should probably mention that Duke Dev is a friend of mine and a sort of unofficial beta-tester.

[FinnishKnight]

Make new faces to the lords and kings

[Phoenixguard09]

I might just do that....
