0.88 download
« on: June 24, 2011, 04:56:44 PM »
Hi all the great day is here.

It gives me and the team great pleasure in releasing the latest version of our mod. Yes we are sorry for going a few months over from what we had said but lots of time and incredible effort has gone into this.



For instance, we went through 3 different maps before we chose this one. At this moment, we would like to give a huge thanks to the work of legio, that put a lot of time into our mod, but in the end, due to a few reasons and change of course, they were not used. But still, thanks for the time and effort you put in.



This version is a vast improvement over the 0.87. Brand new map, completly new unit rooster for each faction since 0.87, brand new battle map enviroments and graphics, brand new animations, brand new strat map models for units and citys, new recruitment system for romans and the Achaen League, night battles, brand new unit stats for realistic battles and many more things to look forward to.



The mod is set in 280 BC, the Romani are starting momentum, Carthago's thirst for power in Spain and Scicly is tireless, the Achaen League stands strong in front of the Macedonian and Carthagian onslaught, the Ptolemaic Empire looks to seizing lands of the Seleukid Empire, Armenia, Parthia and Pontus look to take their revenge for the years of rule under the Seleukids. The world is set for total war. Will Carthago hold all of Scilcy? Will the Aedui crush the Romani? Can the alliance of the Achaen League hold its own against Macedon? Will the small land of Armenia be able to fend of insurgences from the Seleukids? The answer, is in your hands.



To see previews of the mod and to see our current progress in the next version, please visit our forum here:http://exilian.co.uk/forum/index.php?board=83.0

To download the Windows version with the installer please visit here: ( to be released soon )
To download the Windows version without the installer please visit here: http://www.twcenter.net/forums/downloads.php?do=file&id=3401

We hope you enjoy this mod as much as we hated the headaches that making this gave us. Please comment on this, tell us your thoughts and opinions and maybe what we should work on for the next release.

The mac link was quicker to stabilise, also the windows version had one more feature, due to os which mac couldn't take, so it took while separating files for each os. Yes I am trying to get them to post here, but they don't know what to put but i am promoting some new moderators
So they will joining in soon, just so you know I am not a looner pretending I have a team lol:) just I'm the only one that seems to do Internet side of things :) hope
U enjoy

It's been passcoded all along, I was telling Debux that that's why he can't see spw's other post. :P

Oh lol that was a bit of a fail there :) installer is going through last few packs and should be done in the next few days, if you are desperate to play though, you can download the mac image and just ignore the instructions and install like you would for windows. It should work fine on windows but I think there may be a bug with the aedui but if u don't play as them that should be fine, that's only though if you don't want our version of the shortcut image and the made installer :) thats what spw452 is doing just at the moment I think, also please put your thoughts, for the future, were looking to break some hard coding with hex coding, it could have some quite nice results, please post what you think of that :)

In terms of hex coding, check the legalities and make sure you don't fall afoul of them. I think the engine is probably still under copyright, and it's important to make sure you don't get tracked down and handed a very heavy fine (companies do take this sort of thing very seriously).
