Does this still work?

Someone in the discord told me there was an update yesterday? Where can I find that?

Any chance of this getting an update to work with the new beta?

I followed Havie's instructions but I have a problem with the Realms in Exile and Dawnless Days mods, when I go to start a battle, Attila Total War loads but the battle doesn't appear in the historical battles section, only the two battles that come by default in DD appear. Any ideas?

Does LOTR works properly with the good units on the battlefield ?

Is the map in this post still accurate if not complete?

What features are currently functioning? So far everything seems fine except for the custom maps connected to special buildings.

I've been working with the Crusader Wars dev to fix the Men at arms issues. I also started investigating whats up with the current compatibility issues.

For those that want to make this work with the current live version of LOTR 1.15 you need to make a 3rd mod loaded after LOTR that has the original Crusader Wars frontend_ingame_menu.gui file. (Or manually delete it from LOTR)

For some reason the LOTR team included this extra, unused file that prevents Crusader Wars from working in their latest release.

Unfortunately, while it works, it seems too many of the units simply were not or are no longer mapped properly, feels like a lot of missing units when entering battles. Such a cool idea but might not be worth playing on an old version of the lotr mod as likely you wont fight the battles in attila after awhile due to missing units >.<

You are a beautiful person. Drinks are on me if we ever meet

I figured out how to get Realms of Exile (old version) working with Crusader Wars if anyone wants :

Im gonna save people hopefully a lot of trouble. It seems the CK3 LOTR mod is no longer compatible with Crusader Wars as of ~ October 2024. When you go to fight a battle it just opens the Ck3 ESC menu. People in both discords have confirmed this. We need an older version of the Realm of Exile mod to be uploaded somewhere (the ones on catalogue.smods.ru are corrupted for me). I've reached out to the mod authors and made them aware.

How does it work? Do we have to have both games loaded up?

i can't open the mod

will this ever be updated to the new lotr version?

@Shinoda
Isn't it about the compatibility patch?

Current version of Realms in Exile not working u need to manually dowload the old one, i use that one from 29 May, 2024 at 22:51

just subscribe to the current one and then replace the files in the steam workshop folder

its not abandoned :O
follow all the steps in the instructions and everything works, I started it for the first time today and it works great

?

Nooo is this abandoned?

Update plz

It looks like because Balin is put in his own "Balin Longbeard" culture the crusader wars mod thinks he is Gondorian

Does it work for you with the Crusader wars 1.0.10 version ? And maybe an older version of CK3 that was running when Crusader wars 1.0.10 was released ?

Im going to assume this mod is abandoned now.

No men at arms work only levies and some of the levies are invisible too.

Shame too as he is probably the most fun dwarf campaign

Im using ck 1.12.5 and crusader wars 1.0.10 Whilst playing as balin's expedition and when i go into a battle my units are Gondorian and about 30 seconds into the loading screen it CTDs

The old version of the mod you can find in github
https://github.com/farayC/Crusader-Wars/releases

Be warned: this is broken. It absolutely does not include anything but levies in your armies, ever. I spent many hours trying to get a fix that includes men at arms but the only rumor I heard was crusader war 1.0.10 would work. There's no one handing out links to it I could find.

This mod is broken unless you only want to have levy armies. A huge shame, as it is a wonderful mod otherwise. I wish I could experience it properly.

hi, where can i do download crusader war 1.0.10 ?

Hi when i play Galadriel in battle i don't have the unit on my army i have in ck3 so has my enemy, does this mod is update for Crusader Wars 1.0 ?

@Valhal oooooh, yeah I played around with the load order when I had some problems but hadn't put it back to the right one when I tried different versions! Thanks!

@Halcyon it sounds like you've done some digging and have probably ruled it out, but I have to ask anyqay. That sounds very similar to what I've seen with load order issues. Do you have Crusader Wars above Realms in Exile? The load order should be Crusader Wars at top, Realms in Exile next, and then this patch at the bottom. If you have Realms in Exile above Crusader Wars, it will cause weird map issues. It might also happen if you try to run this patch with CK3 1.13, Realms in Exile Beta, or any mix of those.

Hi! This is working for me but with a weird issue: The whole northern part of the map is black zoomed out, and blue zoomed in, with only the trees visible. I tried several combinations (RIE, RIE Beta, different versions of CK3). Does anyone know what the problem is?

how do i load previous verdsion off crusader kings?

crusader wars 1.0.12 is the problem
1.0.10 works

@Saftschluerfer I think that is a problem from Crusader Wars 1.0.12. The unit mappers aren't pulling the correct values. As long as you play 1.12.5 of CK3, version 1.0.10 of Crusader Wars should map the units correctly. I can't speak for 1.13.2 of CK3 beta; I wasn't able to get it to work with Crusader Wars and this patch, so I rolled back to CK3 version 1.12.5.

@Gwenod that is totally fair, and I don't mean it in a critical way. I also realized, after the fact, that you had a discussion for balancing, so sorry for not putting it there. I'm not sure what all it would require, but it would interesting to change the Attila Dawnless Days units directly via a patch to more closely approximate unit values.

Also, do you have any inclination regarding what might be causing issues with the dwarven battles some of us are having? Some battles work and others do not, but the problem definitely seems to be coming from Crusader Wars/this patch since it never happens in Attila alone – only in battles that come from Crusader Wars.

Again, I appreciate all the work you put in to make this possible at all!

wait on top it says not compatible with beta, but under requirements it says beta

hey, i went in a battle with rohan 300 horse archers and 200 rohan riders
i have only inantry and general/knight
is this supposed to happen?

@Valhal Yeah we do our best to bbalance the battle but CK3 and Attila units are too differents to get acceptable results. You have to see this mod like a ''roleplay'' feature than a ''balanced'' experience ;)

update pls (everyone copy and paste this)

I am also experiencing the bug that @WarDrugs was having with CTD after trying to load a battle with the dwarves.

First, I want to say that this mod is great, and I am a big fan; it's my childhood dream really. Unfortunately, I'm running into something frustrating where I'm playing as an Uruk-hai, and it feels pretty unbalanced when Crusader Wars translates battles to Attila. My battle odds will be 70% in CK3, but then in Attila I only have 20% odds of victory. I don't know if orcs are just too weak in Attila, or Uruk-hai especially, but my heavy infantry Uruks can barely take down very light human cavalry or light infantry.

does it work for dawnless days v 0.8.5?

Not Working with 0.8.5 of The Dawnless Days?

Is there a way to add all types of Lamedon units from the dawnless days mod to CK 3?
In CK 3, there is a standard set of MMA for this faction

any french version?

Yeah the dwarven campaign is still broken. If you move out of the starting pos the map loads but then crashes as soon as your start moving army. Not sure if any of the maps beyond this work.

crusader wars will update very soon, no use updating the submod right now

is there a update in sight
