Talk:Rome: Total War Mods

Editing Tables

Era Column

The era column works by having a hidden number from 00 to 99 which represents approx point in time line - that is element that is sorted not the era description, eg.

<span style="display:none">55</span>Dark Ages

It's set up to roughly

00 not applicables

10 ancient Egypt

20 ancient Greek

30 start of Roman republic

40 start of Roman empire

50 fall of Rome

60 medieval

70 Napoleonic

Fantasy mods don't sort in list eg 00's others need to be asigned relative position using the number in the span style section - they won't sort properly if you just try using alphabetical list....

Have fixed the recent ones to where I think they should go - but I'm not actually that sure on start dates -Makanyane 22:43, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

Development

Need to work out way of including and defining sub-mods and add-ons, eg mini-mods for RTR or IBFD (could be included in platform information?) and things like Skymod that can be applied as add on to most mods... ideas?

Also the campaign map column could be improved - to differentiate mods running on vanilla map - other commonly used ones MM WarMap etc, or covering totally new area. Icon idea seems to work OK (thanks Palantir) so something similar could be used? --Makanyane 13:00, 27 May 2007 (CDT)
