I'm not sure what's causing this, but I might have an idea:
There are two files in the mod with file paths (which I changed in order to save a few GB on storage space for the mod), on is data\descr_building_battle\dbb_barbarian_invasion.txt, the other is data\descr_items\di_barbarian_invasion.txt
The second one is related to LODs and the error message you posted looks like the linux version of the game has different file structure than the windows version.
Have a look at the file paths in both of those files and see if your game has those. If not, find out what's the correct file path and change them accordingly.

Hello. I need some help. I'm getting this message if i try this mod on it's own or if i try to implement it on my own personal mod. Can someone help me? I can't paste it so i will simply write it: "c:\tools\cygwin\home\bob\bobbuild\rometw_hd_stable\companies\feral\development\products\rome\source\code\building_db.cpp(4058) :

lowest_lod_id Failed

Failed while trying to find lowest lod model for an item

There are many possible reasons for that crash, my recommendation: make sure you copy ALL the files of this mod in your own mod folder, then only add your own edb file and the ui stuff (building cards and descriptions). Do not change or modify the files of this mod, some of them are different in the remaster and online tutorials for the original rome on these files are mostly outdated

Hello, I'm really sorry to bother again. So I followed the tutorial on the forums, based on this mod's files. Everything went smoothly, and the Barbarian stone walls worked on the battle map too. However, if I were in a Barbarian large/huge city, the game would just crash during the loading process. Is it okay if I ask what could go wrong?

ok thanks a lot, I found it and it's all set

Assign the buildings to barbarian factions in export_descr_buildings, descriptions and building cards can be copied from the barbarian invasion folder.
There are lots of tutorials on how to do these things in detail online, a quick google search should give you step-by-step instructions if you want them.

Thank you for your reply. Is it okay if I may ask how to enable them?

This mod has all the necessary files for the additional buildings from the Barbarian Invasion expansion included, but these buildings are not enabled (to keep it in line with vanilla). This is only useful for other modders to quickly enable them if one wants to do that.

"this mod does not enable stone walls or large and huge cities for barbarian factions in campaign."
what does this mean?

Works great see link for proof. :)

Went in a visited Rome today. I am used to grey texture and this was a sort of orange or brown color wall. More details in the wall as well. very cool.

how to download?

Wonder why this wasn't in the vanilla game? Seems odd. Could it be a bug?

Thank you! I tried to figure this out but couldn't do it myself.

@wladqis I would really like to see your Mods make a return. I really appreciated the approach you take.

Hmm this actually is like fix for the game

Hello Rhonon!
May I please integrate this mod into my mod, Barbarian Empires (Open Beta)?

@wladqis Sure, send me a pm on discord (you can find me on the RTW Community discord under the same name) and I'll explain which files you have to change

@Rhonon I am autor of RR LittleFixer mod. If I have a little bit more time I will incorporate this Unique Walls to my mod with your permition. But I have never change Walls textures or something like that I do not know which file must be modified to do such changes.

@MINOS, RR LittleFixer and my mod edit the same files, so they are definitely not compatible. As for the rest, the mod manager will check compatibility and should give you a warning if there is a problem in your load order.

@ Rhonon:


Enhanced Sounds (Base Game)

Better Battle AI for 270BC Campaign

RTR:IS - Standalone Graphics

Enhanced Sounds (Barbarian Invasion)

Enhanced Sounds (Alexander)

Family Trees Enhanced

New Portraits for all

RR LittleFixer with Barbarian Invasion buildings, recruitable regional mercs & generals v1 REUPLOAD

Swagger's Blood Mod


<<< I think it could be either Standalone Graphics or RR LittleFixer

@MINOS, sounds like a load order issue. Do you use other mods with this one?

Tons of Error when starting the Game up with this...

Great, looking very good!

Wow this is awesome.

Wonderful idea! Could you join us at RIS and put this in the mod as well?
