The download link above (and below) is to the combined, stand-alone version 2.1 of the Med mod.

I did have three different types of silicon chips I was thinking of using, but I can't seem to find the damn things now...lost amid the maze of files somewhere. So, what do you think? -Nordicus

I am a happy puppy!

I actually have patch 2, Apolyton, & MM2 working together! It was bloodless... and I can't believe it.

Now I don't want to goof it up so Wes.. genius that you are, if you have all the update files together in one path, I'd like to get that from you. Will you make it available here at Apolyton?

I don't have the courage yet to beta your modern mod, but if it's anything as good as medieval mod 2.. then I am lusting for it!
Can someone 'lust' for code? Hmmm...

Hey Guys,

Sorry to bother you, but I noticed that you have to have the original medieval mod 2.0 before you can use 2.1. Or maybe I should say 2.1 is an update rather than a stand alone mod. I installed it as a stand alone mod, because I was not aware of this. Well, now i seem to be having a problem with the cruise missle. When I get to the modern age, I build a cruise missle and it will crash the game because the little graphic at the bottom of the screen for it seems to be missing. If you don't know what I am talking about. It's the 9 squares at the bottom of the screen that shows up when you select a stack, and it allows you to select a unit within the stack. I think it keeps saying a tga file is missing. I'm not for sure, because I'm not a computer code god like you guys. I beleive this may be fixed if i install the 2.0 version of the mod first and then the 2.1 update on top of it. My problem is now that you guys have released the 2.1 version, I can't seem to find a place to download the medieval mod 2.0. Could someone please direct me to a place where I can download it. If the moderm mod is half of what the medieval mod 2.1 I'll be extremely pleased. Oh yeah, no longer do I regret buying Civ: CTP, thank's to Celestial Dawn and the rest of you that are molding the game into what activision promised. Thank You!

One more thing before I stop bothering you guys. I have noticed one thing about two units in Cd's Mod. The spy satellite and the missle cruiser come later than they actually did in history. I know the missle cruiser didn't really shape the cold war much, but the spy satellite did. It allowed the world powers to observe each other with more accuracy. In effect, this knowledge kept the cold war cold. With the knowledge, the nations knew they couldn't launch nukes or move them much without the others knowing. I suggest that in any new mod the spy satellite should come with space flight and the missile cruiser should come with rocketry. Let me know what you think about this suggestion. Thanks.

USS,

Yeah, that is a problem. Even though I generally have mods, etc from testing, I like to download the finished product from Apolyton like everybody else would do. This way I make sure what everybody gets will work. I have ran into this same problem on other file downloads as well. I guess it is a good thing some of use still have the files around.

I emailed you the MedMod V2. It is over a Meg in size. Let me know if you can't get a file that big through email.

Thanx Don,

I did get the file just fine. Thanx for sending it to me. That's one good thing about AOL, I can receive and send a file as big as 16 megs, I beleive. Hopefully this will fix my problem with the cruise missle. What did you think about my ideas concerning the spy satellite and the missile cruiser?

There is one correction I need to make. I just noticed it. Actually I beleive spy satellite should accompany the advanced composites technology. I think it would be appropriate if the spy satellite came with the stealth bomber and the space plane. Space flight seems a little late as well. As you all know we have had spy satellites in service for a while now, but SDI is still a far off dream. Let me know what you guy's think.

Any plans to "re-release" a stand-alone version of Medieval Mod 2.1?

If we can't get hold of MM2.0 any more (and I don't have it!) it kind of makes 2.1 a bit redundant. Shame as I really want to try it out!

A combined version of 2.0 and 2.1 would seem to make sense...?

[WesW]

The mod now available for download *is* the stand-alone version.
I had been sending out the update by itself to people who requested it. I had sent Mark both mods, but he decided to just post the stand-alone: That's why you can't find the Update.

I have edited some of the posts above to try and clarify things for future readers.
Just to re-iterate: The links above *are* to the combined, stand-alone version 2.1 of the Med mod.
The problem U.S. Sinister had is due to some mistakes I made in the 2.1 version of the mod.
Note: Anyone who downloaded the mod prior to Jan. 22, please contact me, so I can send you a corrected uniticon.txt. It fixes the problems with the units from CD's mod, such as the one U.S. Sinister wrote in here about.
