Field of Glory II Silk Road Mod updated to v1.7

[kronenblatt]

Mainly because, while Jomni has done a great job in modding the units, some of the models are not really suitable for what they represent - e.g. Mixed units of heavy weapon and crossbow. For a mod. it is great, but not for an official part of the game.

I see: thanks for input, Richard. Could these models be improved to perfection as part of a pay-for DLC to the official game? I'd happily buy such a DLC, and maybe other players would too.

If we did a Far Eastern DLC, then the models would be new models. It isn't really possible to tweak models to change their weaponry, for example.

OK, I see. Is a Far Eastern DLC anywhere on the radar for FoG2:Ancients? That would be so good!

Not currently, the earlier chariot period would be first.

The earlier chariot period is good news too! All in due course...

Is v1.7 still the latest version of the Silk Road mod? If so, is this likely to still be the case up until Xmas? Thanks.

Does this mod add china, Japan, Mongolia etc to the Field of Glory Empires vanilla map and factions etc. If not could it be a consideration?

No, it does not. You would need a mod of Empires for that and it would be a major project I imagine; not even sure if Empires is mod'able by third parties like FOG2 is.

Noticed a typo while playing with the Korean 936-1046 AD list - the "Korean Light Horse" is misspelled "Koran Light Horse".

in theory yes it is - all the files are accessible. Just there is no real documentation and you'll need some programing skills.

Its actually based on the same underlying game engine as FoG2 so some of the modding advice here might be of some help

Why aren't the Asian armies in the regular army lists!?

Got your answer in the pm. That is too bad. Thanks for answering though!
