Greetings Rome Total Realism fans!The RTR Project Teams is happy to announce that we are finally releasing the RTR 8 Public Beta v3.0.

Install Instructions:Spoiler (click to show/hide)Option A
1. Extract the RTR folder to your RTW directory or if you are using steam, your RTW - Alexander directory
2. Go inside the RTR folder and Click RTR Start to play!

Option B
1. Extract the RTR folder to your RTW directory or if you are using steam, your RTW - Alexander directory
2. Right Click on the Alx.exe and create a shortcut
3. Then right click the shortcut and select properties and put this in the target line after all quotations: -show_err -mod:RTR
4. If you are using steam, Go to your RTW - Alexander folder and make a shortcut of the exe file, and then follow step 3.
5. Play!

- If you are using the non steam version but want to run it through steam, go to 'Add a game' then select the Shortcut you made in step two and name it 'Rome Total Realism'

Unit roster switch:Spoiler (click to show/hide)With this version we have a feature where you can play custom battles and multiplayer using a trimmed unit file to only offer you the faction specific units.
The other unit file can still be used for custom battles, but it will contain many units that aren't fit for your faction (Britannic Swordsmen for Parthia).

If you want to play custom battles or multiplayer and not have to sift through tons of units, double click the EDU-battle batch file in the RTR folder.
However, if you are going to play a campaign, YOU MUST make sure that you hit the EDU-campaign batch file, or there will be issues with recruitment.

Have fun!

Just finished writing a massive release/announcement article for the ModDB page, waiting for it to be authorised now. Exilian will have a frontpage announcement too, I'm just holding that back for 24hrs to give the November "Updates from the Forge" issue a bit more time at the top of the homepage.

comrade_general:
Well done everyone involved above this post!
