  1. GamingIO Mod Manager is an attempt to make a generic Mod Manager/Installer that will work with as many PC games as possible. We believe with community support of Mod Authors and gamers we can support at least a 100 games right now and more as other game developers join.
  2. It is just the indicator that there may be a newer version of that mod. Click on the icon to be taken to the mod page. Note that this relies on the author actually numbering his versions in proper order - I have seen some where the author made his first version 1.0 and his second 0.1.2.
  3. The best Total War: Rome 2 mods. Rome 2 still holds a special place in the Total War pantheon, and it also happens to have an excellent mod scene.

TW Engine 2 Overview

The TW Engine 2 was used for Rome: Total War and Medieval II: Total War, there are similar tools and principles used in modding these games. Compared to the Warscape games RTW and M2TW allow much greater modding potential including the possibility of making 'Total Conversion' mods including completely new campaign maps.

Rome 2 Mod Manager Download

Once familiar with modding one of the games you will find it relatively easy to mod the other. The methods for changing the campaign maps are almost identical and many text files such as export_descr_buildings.txt and export_descr_unit.txt which control unit recruitment are also almost identical. However, some recognisable files from RTW which still exist in the base M2TW files such as descr_daytypes.txt confusingly are not actually used by the M2TW game engine!


Medieval II: Total War

Medieval II: Total War allows easy modification of many elements by straightforward text editing. The campaign map for M2TW can be modified by altering .tga image files and text files. Battlemap unit models and settlement structures can be edited via user-created tools many of which export and import to Milkshape ms3d files.

M2TW provides a system of mod-foldering to help avoid over-writing the base files. Bare Geomod is a recommended resource to start modding on a bare but fully functional mod-folder of your own.

The M2TW game engine provides an automated system for the generation of unit sprites, but not vegetation sprites, IWTE can be used to create vegetation sprites and amend the descr_vegetation.db which does not auto-regenerate. The descr_geography_new.db file can be made to re-generate but there are drawbacks.

  • Medieval II: Total War Modding Category - for other Wiki pages
  • Medieval II: Total War Tools, Tutorials and Resources section - on TWC Forums

Rome: Total War

Rome: Total War allows easy modification by text editing for many elements such as; unit stats and recruitment, character traits and diplomacy. The campaign map for RTW can be modified by altering .tga image files and text files. Unit recruitment, character traits, diplomacy and many other aspects can be modified by changing text files. Battlemap unit models and settlement structures can be edited with the help of tools such as the CAS Importer/exporter for 3ds max (by Vercingetorix).

The RTW game engine provides an automated system for the generation of unit and vegetation sprites. The engine will also regenerate a modified descr_vegetation.db file and descr_items.db (for battle-map structures), the descr_geography.db file will not regenerate.

TW Engine 1 Overview

The TW Engine 1 was used for Shogun: Total War and Medieval: Total War.


Medieval: Total War

Medieval: Total War was the first readily 'moddable' Total War game.

For further modding information see: Rohs compliant 2002 95 ec driver download.

  • Medieval Mod Workshop - on TWC Forums
  • M:TW Modification - Forum on the .org


Shogun: Total War

Shogun: Total War was the first-ever game in the Total War Series, it is widely regarded as being hard/impossible to mod. Some unit stats and other small matters can be altered if The Mongol Invasion expansion is used, but most modding efforts were concentrated on the more receptive next game in the series. https://congcosre.hatenablog.com/entry/2020/10/18/225159.
