Just between you and me and anyone else that reads this thread...I never played Shogun.

My most succesful multi would have been Viking Invasion, my viking army was almost unstoppable. 1v1 no contest. 2v2 easy. I even had a pug 4v4 team collapse and my vikings routed 3 enemy armies before running out of vikings to send to valhalla. Then again there was little that could defeat 4x4 heavy infantry and skirmish screen with no other faction having 4 or more types of heavy inf let alone heavy inf with that high morale. All that raping and pillaging.

Was a huge fan of the TW series.... Literally played Medieval/VI to death! Invaded Scandi as the Saxons lol! Swabians & Huscarls FTW!!! Loved Rome, although not the glitches, with Rome I dedicated a lot of time to assisting several modifications, RTR, EB, Invasio Barbarorum and the Chivalry mod (I even participated in the Latin-voice mod hehe)... Enthusiasm curbed after I bought MedII though.... The fact CA couldn't even get Axemen/Halberds to work in game.... WTF? After which I played mods only... I didn't even by Empire, hardly crossed my mind in fact..

Multi campaign though........... Don't... Think........ I.... Can..... Re......sis.........t......

Might buy it on steam ey..

Aawww no call to be a meany!

I just recall hours and hours played the series... Should have been studying more in yr11 and 12, but no.... TW and Civ destroyed my education! Would be good to hit up a Multi campaign though, they've being trying to implement it since Viking Invasion IIRC.. As I said, didn't even buy Empire TW, did not even consider it.... Hopefully Nappy is a step in the right direction!

For the record though, I moved my time from TW style games and have since become a big fan of Paradox Interactive. They are both quite in depth games, and executed very differently, but PI support is a whole lot better than CA/Sega..

Spent hours on all the Total War games from Rome TW onwards, played it absolutely to death, come to think of it I was playing it yesterday. Medieval TW 2 was great fun and Kingdoms was a great expansion that I actually ended up playing more than the original campaigns. Empire I didnt rate at all, it doesnt have the same mechanics I came to love, siege warfare and melee combat, way too much musket and cannon for my liking. Played it through once and that was enough for me to never play it again.

Recently got Napoleon TW and I must say its much more impressive and immersive. The way you can play the actual campaigns of Napoleon is a great addition to the series, I throughly enjoyed the mechanics of these particular campaigns, the pre determined events and Liberating a country and making it subservient to your nation. I particularly liked the attrition, your troops slowing dying on the long march from Krakow to Moscow in the blistering cold or dying from the extreme heat in the desert trying to trek some isolated settlement in Egypt.

I'm actually considering re-buying RTW on steam... The modding community is still super active and there are a large number of modifications that completely transform it... You guys tried any of them??

I hope they dont fark it up. As much as I have enjoyed all of their games, the cinematic feel and simplified civilization management feels like a slow downward spiral. Only reason i dont still play Shogun is the lack of unit variety. So fingers crossed Rome will excel (like it has previously) at different factions

after some of the things I've read, I'm pretty skeptical.

will wait till I get a new graphics card and then I'll consider buying it (3 months away). should be enough time for patches and hopefully a good expansion. but best of all, decent mods!

    • Brooooo Please send ABS control unit schematic Please! R33 gts25t ABS (Its two plug ecu, black and white) wire colors possible? [email protected]
    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
