hey, i do love this but can you make one were more pop for warhammer 3

Is this no longer part of SFO? Beastmen aren't respawning for me in my SFO late game.

Thanks for the update

Ta muchly for the update!

P.S.
When you replace the text in the .lua file you need to include the " -marks and the , -signs as well or the mod will throw a slight hissy-fit and promptly refuse to work as it should.

Have a good day!

Part 2/2
3, Once you've opened the file navigate through the structure and open the script folder followed by the campaign folder, the main_warhammer folder, and the mod folder. Double-click the zar_twh_beastmen_rising.lua file to open it.

4, Near the very top of the file you'll see a text stating "-- all playable bst factions" followed by "BEASTMEN_FACTIONS =" on the row below it. Find the text
"wh_dlc03_bst_beastmen","wh_dlc03_bst_redhorn" and replace it with the following:
"wh_dlc03_bst_beastmen","wh2_dlc17_bst_malagor","wh2_dlc17_bst_taurox","wh_dlc05_bst_morghur_herd","wh_dlc03_bst_redhorn" .

5, Save your edits to the file and close RPFM. Enable the mod in your modmanager of choice (I once again recommend KMM) and then launch the game.

6, if you followed these instructions correctly and didn't muck them up this mod should be fully functional for all the playable beastmen factions that you have access to. Cheers!

Part 1/2

There's an easy fix to enable all the functionality of this mod (except for the spawned beastmen armies not having any of the recent FreeLC or DLC units) and it can be implemented by doing the following:

1, Download and isntall the Rusted PackFile Manager program. This lets you open and modify the zar_twh_beastmen_rising.pack file to make the changes required. The program can be downloaded from GitHub: https://github.com/Frodo45127/rpfm/

2a, After setting up the program go to your Steam folder and then navigate to steamapps -> common -> Total War WARHAMMER II -> data and open the zar_twh_beastmen_rising.pack file with RPFM.

2b, If you're using CA's modmanager instead of KMM you'll instead find the zar_twh_beastmen_rising.pack file by navigating from your Steam folder to steamapps -> workshop -> content -> 594570 -> 1182534497 and the file should be right there.

Part 1/2

Any plans to continue with this mod post the beastmen rework?

does it work for multiplayer?

@Rein I think it was causing problems even before Rakarth. I had several beastmen campaigns earlier and each time, at around turn 80 or so something would happen that would crash the game when loading the save the next time I played.

So up until Rakarth update this worked fine, but it now will serve to break scripts of other mods and vanilla functions such as elector count fealty, forge of Daith, Mixu lords, Ect.

Just a public service notice for anyone else sifting through a modlist to find what has broke.

I'm not entirely sure how possible it is, but it might be worth tweaking the unit spawn ratio for the Beastmen armies, especially in mid to late game. I haven't encountered a single Beastmen army that uses anything more than Ungors, including during the chaos invasion. A gor is a complete rarity (and that is only a mid tier unit), and I haven't ever seen a Bestigor.

Despite the mods attempts to give them more of a map presence, and my attempts to combine this mod with other Beastmen overhaul/improvement mods such as "Guv's Horde Reemergence Army Changes" and "The Nature of the Beast", they still seem to die out very quickly.

Hi I know it might be a bit to work out but I was wondering if you could make it so mods such as the MCM could change the starting invasions, seems to me a bit like the invasions are too late into the game to worry that much for but this might be due to mods which make my games a bit faster to complete. Though thank you for this mod, never thought I could actually think 'So if the Beastmen take x'.

I fixed this by restricting the free upkeep to 10 turns only (works only for newly spawned armies though).

not sure if its a bug, but the armies that are trigger spawned in by this mod give you free upkeep when confederated. Not complaining but just wondering if this is intended

This mod is more necessary than ever, lol playing as Orion, not even 20 turns and both Beastmen factions were destroyed

working?

Hi, Im at turn 80 with SFO and still dont have any Great Herdstones mission. When are they supossed to trigger?

Thanks!

Is it possible to create similar mod spawning savage orcs ?

tip - don't have the community modding framework enabled if you want the herdstone events to work

When is the herdstone quest supposed to trigger?

No one else has crashing problems with this mod? This always crashes on game startup. Only this mod enabled. I have tried beta patch/no beta patch, verifying game files. Nothing. Can't get past the TWWH2 logo.

Steingrim,

Thanks!

@Lampros Yes, I use both and they seem to work fine

Is this compatible with Cataph's Boyz will be Boyz?

Works with Mixu's unlocker playing as Taurox the Brass Bull, to my delight. Not sure if the 10 events carried over from the first game worked since you're techinically not supposed to be able to play as manblight, but, the region specific bonuses from friendly herds works, the four herdstones work, the raid stance replenishment works, and the chaos warherd invasions work.

While it would be cool, I don't expect compatibility to be made for Taurox and Manblight. Aside from that I only wish the rewards for finding the herdstones were a bit more substantial.

This is necessary until CA does a Beastmen rework which may not hit til Warhammer 3.

Great mod, works for me. Would you consider changing the beastmen brayherd system to the new greenskin waaaaaagh system?

This crashes the game when I try to launch it. I only have this mod activated.

How does this work alongside Chaos Dwarf Invasion and Chaos Invasion 20x?

Does this mod tampers with "wh_horde_reemergeance.lua"?

Are this exactly the same campaign changes as SFO or there changes which sfo adds but this mod doesn't except for the stronger units ?

thanks.

Spawn points are random.

do beastemen hordes spawn in brettonia?because im at turn 70 and havent met one.

only work on ME , not in vortex ?

Hmmmm. When just loading those two together alone, it works. But when I load them with the other mods I'm using, I can only load either one at a time. Loading both will CTD before I reach the menu.

@Pale
No, it is not supposed to happen. Make shure you don't have the old version of the Empire mod.

Hi Zarkis. If I try to launch this mod alongside your The Empire - Reloaded mod, the game CTD's before getting to the menu. Is that supposed to happen? :/ Otherwise I love both mods.

Hello there. Can you reduce the movement cost to adopt the raiding stance for the Beastmen to 0%? TBH it never made sense for them to have to "pay" 25% movement cost if Norsca doesn't have to do it.

RE: Crashing. I haven't been able to get a campaign to run in ME for a few patches now because of this mod. I haven't added any new mods so I'm not sure what the sudden conflict comes from, if it's that, which I'm assuming it is. I think I'll try to figure out what the conflict is in the next week or so.

It crashed immediately upon new campaign load, but when I removed this mod specifically after going through the entire list removing and re-adding it was this one that made it work. But it might have just been a conflict somewhere then I suppose.

I started a new Kroq-Gar campaign with no issue. Did it crash at game start or later?

Was a Mortal Empires Kroq-Gar campaign.

Which campaign?

I'm getting a crash upon campaign start when using this. Ran through all my mods, definitely narrowed it down to this. A shame really, it worked perfectly fine before.

Is it possible to do the same, but with the greenskin tribes?

ok upon farther testing ive found that it works fine it was the mod Community Modding Framework that was the mod crashing me... sorry forgot i had that mod clicked when i put your mod in.....ty for the response but i got it.. IT WORKS PERFECT...

So the game crashes when starting it or when starting a campaign? Did you try to deactivate alll other mods to check what happens? I have no problem stating the game and playing a beastmen campaign. And I changed nothing for the patch so far.
