Total War: THREE KINGDOMS

ROTK Ver1 - TROM + TUP Collection
Lotus Eater23  [developer] 5 Apr, 2023 @ 2:57pm
Updates to Mod List and reasons for changes
UPDATE AS OF 03/24/2023
------------------------------------------------------------------
I have done more testing on a couple play throughs, and hit turn 50 3 times :) I have taken out a few mods below and added new ones in. This is a common problem, but a good one as tweaking my mods seems to be a daily thing.

I took out battlefield text add ons and added a new faction colors mod. I like this mod as it aims to be more like the colors of ROTK. I also added in flag variations. Both mods seem to work fine, my existing play through did not change the flags on the enemy side of the 1 battle i tested but, a new campaign did see both sides with the new flags.

I also tested MTU event add on mod which sees Zhao Yun change appearance at lvl 7. Leave this mod on if you like what it does. Some people have asked weather it is built into TUP + TROM and it is not after testing it out.
--------------------------------------------------------------------

UPDATE 03/28/23 - Removed 1.7.1 Bugfix mod from collection as it appears that mod is built into TROM. Removed Battle Lod remover mod. I cant confirm if the mod was at fault but i was having performance issues with my RTX 3090. I also dropped from full 4k high settings to 1440p high and it was smooth as butter.
--------------------------------------------------------------------

UPDATE 04/02/23 - Removed TUP FAMILY TREE EVENTS
Family Tree was #2 in the load order in case i want to add it back in. It is being removed for now due to the latest update causing generals to not appear. The update fixes some duplicates but i noticed Ma Dai not in Ma Teng's family tree or spawning. Mod author seems aware that some might not appear like this and could end up fixing
----------------------------------------------------------------------

UPDATE 04/04/2023 - Added TUP FAMILY TREE EVENTS
Even though Ma Dai is not spawning, the extra events was much more pleasing upon testing, at least for the player. I tested Cao Cao, Gongsun Zan, and Ma Teng up until turn 10. The factions start out with less generals but seem to pick up a decent number of events that lead to people spawning in OR joining up. The missing generals from turn 1 were seemingly showing up slowly through said events
--------------------------------------------------------------------

UPDATE 04/07/2023 - Moved GATHERING CORE OBJECT
Moved the above mod to #1 on the load order since the mod page of Gathering U.I. states core object has to be ahead of U.I to work correctly. Mistake on my part for not seeing that
------------------------------------------------------------------------

UPDATE 06/01/2023 - Adding Bugfix 1.7.2 back into the mod list
A mod author and reputable source confirmed after the latest update the TUP/TROM mod works with 1.7.2 bugfix. The duplicate tables were deleted from the TUP/TROM mod, so it does not crash at launch anymore. You can unsub from this mod and subscribe again to see the changes, if it doesn't update automatically for you.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

UPDATE 06/01/2023 - Added in Drunken Panda Model Pack & Reskins
This mod looks amazing and seems to work fine with minor testing done. I will need to keep doing some playtests to confirm this is indeed compatible with TROM but everything looks great so far
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

UPDATE 06/06/2023 - Added in MTU/TUP Unique Models for Unique Characters
per some of the comments on that mod page, it was stated that this mod needs to go above pandas other mods like the model pack and such. It was also stated that it should go above TUP/TROM. I will keep it at the top of the load order but should any problems come up, i can try moving it down to just above where pandas other mods are stored.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

UPDATE 06/07/2023 - Removing TUP Family Tree Events
until further notice. The mod author Woodhawk confirmed his TUP + TROM mod has incompatibilities with Family Tree mod. So even though Family Tree mod works and doesnt CTD, it could cause issues and spawn concerns which we do NOT want.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

UPDATE 06/25/2023 - Removed Give resilience to uniques mod since this mod edits CEO data and has compatibility issues with other mods like WU, MTU, and overhaul mods.

Added in my mod, Lotus Eater's Fountain Of Life!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

UPDATE 12/30/2023 - Removed Liu Hong mechanic mod as the Power & Politics mod should be handling what that mod already does and to prevent crashing/overlapping mods
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

UPDATE 01/24/24 - Removing population based food consumption as it is a great immersion mod but, i was seeing too little consistency in food production and im still trying to wrap my head around if the food output makes sense. TUP/TROM already has a food corruption system in those mods so, it's less confusing for the game to decide what is being used also.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

UPDATE 01/24/24 - Removing Better Diplomacy mod. While this is another mod that i cannot confirm had any issues, my concern is that the tables this mod edits are also tables that were edited in the TUP/TROM mod. To be safe, im removing this mod for now to avoid conflict.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

UPDATE 02/05/25 - Added my own weather mod Lotus Eater's Fallen Soldier in the Sun
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

UPDATE 02/05/25 - Removing my weather mod due to incorporating it into my other mod TROM + TUP Part 5 Flag Compatibility mod
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

UPDATE 02/06/25 - Removed lower salary mod, added my personal AI satisfaction and salary mod. Removed NGC character U.I. due to the mod being taken down from steam and being almost unusable. This mod was after the panda reskin in the bottom of the load order
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Large UPDATE 02/12/25 - Added in many of my own mods including my NEW ROTK [TROM + TUP] collection that is based off of Beans & Woodhawks amazing TROM + TUP mods

Added in no ai diplomatic marriage, no gate pass unless military access, my own lite version of power and politics, slaughter generic generals, and more!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Large UPDATE: 02/20/25 - Removed Gathering Heroes, Removed Ai wont execute characters, removed Lotus Eaters slaughter generic generals

Added in: Lotus Eater's Historical Heroes, No Generics, No Ai execution

My ROTK parts 1-5 also had pretty significant updates. Parts 1,2, and 4 saw historical generals spawn dates be altered. I also tried to make it so they wont die sitting in a recruitment pool. 999 turns need to pass before character perishes.

Edited Budget Allocations tables to get the Ai to prioritize retaining generals. Massively overhauled unit upkeep and recruit cost.

Due to these new costs and how the ai budgets, i HIGHLY recommend you subscribe to either a lower salary mod or my own salary reduction mod
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

UPDATE: 02/22/25 - To avoid ruining campaigns and to keep some of the TROM + TUP formula fresh, my part 5 of TROM + TUP was reverted back to a near 2024 state. The only edits will be that i took the liu hong mechanic tables out so that my lite version of power and politics mod can be used properly and there's only slight budget allocation edits now vs the major ones I edited previously.

hello! this is great collection, however i get issues when i fired up new campaign liu bei from the earliest era.

it doesnt have issues with save files though. let me know if you managed to fix

also, can you add a mod where impt heroes joined the main player's faction according to history? for example when ma chao and huang zhong joining liu bei at specific times

Hi @Ted Voon and welcome to my collection!

Unfortunately i just started modding and im not quite at the stage to take on something of that level. Eventually i might be able to but im still adding to my other mod with flags and colours. Maybe someday though!

Thank u for the collection, it only needs a guide for mods order

@Black Kazzan

The load order I recommend is from top to bottom and in its best order according to what i have found. I spent a pretty decent amount of time researching mod pages to see what is recommended and then compiled them to be the best order I could create. Hope that helps and I will see if i can make that easily readable in my description. Apologies on that

very good collection, i love it, thank you so much for doing it
Very good!
Hi, thanks for sharing your collection! I would like to ask if it’s possible to keep the vanilla appearance of Liu Bei, Cao Cao, and other historical characters by disabling a mod from the collection. Thanks again!

@FernetCaliente You can disable the mod: Lotus Eater's ROTK Overhaul [TROM+TUP PART 2 - Characters] & Part 1 for skills

If you disable those two mods, you will have to replace it with the original TUP + TROM parts 1 & 2 but then it will give you the vanilla portraits.

I highly recommend that if you do that, i would switch over every part to either just my revamps or just revert to the original TUP + TROM ( Parts 1, 2, 3, 4 and then you can choose if you want my part 5 with my flag mod OR just choose the original part 5.

Only part 5 is intended to work with the original TUP + TROM so if you disable just part 2 and replace with original part 2, i fear it may crash or have unintended consequences as part 2 has edited Ceo data and part 1 has Ceo data that matches 2.

It would not be difficult for me to re release a separate part 2 with the original TROM + TUP portraits and the rest of the tables are my own, however i don't want to disrespect the original mod authors by releasing a plethora of remakes of their mod and then it just gets confusing.

Ill consider re releasing a part 2 and if I upload it, ill post here and then make it visible to friends only, then you would have to add me but at least you can revert to what you want.
Ohh, thanks for your answer! It's very useful! I'll do as you say for the time being and check regularly for any news or updates. :D
Hey. Thank you for the amazing collection. I would like to ask if it is possible to add TROM Warlords mod in to this collection somehow. Thanks again
