Are there any Total Conversions based on VC?

[Tyson_48]

As the title say...
I am looking for a new mod to play.
Since i played the awoiaf which uses much of the VC stuff, i no longer want to play mods only based on Warband.
It is so much better with the VC interface, ships, etc.

So is there any?
Like Floris, Pendor, Perisno, etc. based on VC?

Blood Eagle is one I know,
link
not sure if there's a better link though.

There's also something wrong with the trailer, it's way darker than it actually is.

Maybe there are some other mods that you might like here

Thanks but these mods are all in the viking age.

I meant a real conversion f.e. to Calradia or the worlds of Perisno or Pendor...

A total conversion doesn't make sense for VC, as the code is freely available to non-sub mods to use. So you can see features, ideas, etc being applied on mods. There are several mods - Warband mods - this situation.

The exclusive bits are the assets like textures, meshes, sounds, ..., which are used by submods that you can find listed in the modding subforum.

Actually, I have a good idea about conversion of VC
It would be good to make a conversion about ancient Mediterranian - Peloponessian Wars or Wars of the Diadochi or something like that. With trade, lot of fractions, sea pirates, etc. But of course ship models overhaul is the most difficult part.
There are another conversion idea - just change the map (exclude Britain, add whole southern Baltic coast and northern Russia) and add one more nation with its own troop tree - Slavic.

t ancient Mediterranian - Peloponessian Wars or Wars of the Diadochi or something like that.

your first idea would be a TC for Warband, not VC.

Your second idea would be a sub-mod for VC (if you want to use the DLC assets), or a TC for Warband.

TC (Total Conversion) is something like: Warband is a late medieval game, so lets use that as a base for a Ancient Rome mod, or a mod in Japan 15th century, etc. It implies a complete change of the game setting (era, overall design, etc). Just to make clear on the definition. It is important in this case just because it is related to the necessity of using the DLC serial key or not.

see https://forums.taleworlds.com/index.php/topic,349080.0.html to understand what kind of assets are free for use, and which ones would require the DLC serial key

Blood Eagle is also a sub-mod (a very big one)

 

[Bustrofedon]

your first idea would be a TC for Warband, not VC.

I am talking about ancient Mediterranean mod which would support sea battles, many types of ships and other VC features. Yes, complete change of game settings is needed.
Correct me if I am wrong, but as far as I know only VC support sea battles with ships maneuring and boarding.

Correct me if I am wrong, but as far as I know only VC support sea battles with ships maneuring and boarding.

altho it is a new inclusion from the DLC, it is also compatible with Warband (they use the same engine). So if a modder wants to add such features to a non-VC mod, they can (they would need to create their own models for ships - which already exists on mods - and their own shadder code for sea - which would be the trick part).

I guess you are not a modder, so hopefully this short explanations are enough, otherwise we would need to go into tech details which would not make much sense outside the Forge (and if someone is actually trying to implement such a mod).

Cheers
