Rome: Total War Mod Launcher

A new core patch with a bug fix has been released for the Mod Launcher. This improved tool, built using .NET Core 6.0, greatly helps players and modders quickly play their installed mods.

This Rome: Total War Mod Launcher allows you to select which Rome: Total War mod you want to play and choose the desired mode. All possible parameters can be configured. If you have many mods installed, you can filter by vanilla, Alexander, or Barbarian Invasion mods. Another great feature of this launcher is its built-in system that supports certain mods requiring the DLC engine. Using the launcher provides the easiest way to play any mods.

In the picture above, you can see an example of how the launcher looks: you select your mod from the dropdown section and just hit the play button.

If you are a modder struggling with creating sprites, the launcher can be very helpful. You only need to prepare which units to sprite, and the launcher will create the sprites for you! It not only uses the perfect preference file but also converts the results into .dds format.
