New player to this series. Was wondering if mods for RTW2 would work with the new RTW3 and if so which ones I should look into?

New player to this series. Was wondering if mods for RTW2 would work with the new RTW3 and if so which ones I should look into? Hi and welcome to this part of the RTW3 forums! It really kinda depends on the mod. Some graphical mods might still work as (as far as I know) that hasn't changed technically in RTW3. RTW2 nation mods will not work as the file structure has changed from in RTW3, so they will need rework at the very least. (you might try and contact the author if they're willing to convert their mod to RTW3, or ask for permission for someone else to do it if you see one you REALLY like) Also good to know is that some of the really good RTW2 mods (like Tortuga's AI war mod) are already part of the RTW3 base game. A good starting point when it comes to RTW2 mods is Dorn's list over HERE. He already marked some mods over there that MIGHT work in RTW3, so you could pick a mod and see what happens? Just make sure you make a backup of your DATA folder so you can restore things to how they were. (or perhaps a Steam file integrity check, but haven't tried that one yet)

I believe that mod is essential for rtw2,and i have been waiting for someone to make a version for rtw3.Thanks for pointing out that it works,i'm gonna try it out.
