    MesoAmerican Cavalry Unit - Xolotl Warrior

    Converted an enemies stable using the Aztecs and this unit appeared in the stable as a create-able unit.

    Edit: Unit is available to Both Aztecs and Incas (Mayans don't get Redemption) [This is Definitive Edition]

    More Edit: Can increase Atk to 14 with blacksmith techs, no defensive upgrades.

    EME: Added Picture.

    Seems to be as weak to monks as knights.

    When they researched loom before you

    Posted: 16 Nov 2019 11:29 PM PST

    New to the game or unfamiliar with the new Civs? Forget which Civs get Thumb Ring or Bombard Cannon? I made a Tech Tree UI mod which might help out!

    Posted: 17 Nov 2019 05:43 AM PST

    Back in Voobly/HD, there was a very useful mod which showed the most important parts of each Civ's tech tree in the bottom panel, so you could remember what units to make, what techs you miss out on, etc. even in the middle of the game. I've just remade this mod for DE, and improved it by listing the unique techs and team bonuses!

    It shows whether your civ gets unit upgrades, any special units (eg. elephants, camels, eagles), blacksmith upgrades, and the most important techs.

    You can see some examples here:

    I have uploaded a version to the in-game mod system, but unfortunately due to limitations of the system (thanks Microsoft), it had to be a very squished version without the team bonuses.

    If you'd prefer to use the version with team bonuses listed, I've uploaded it here to download and install manually.

    https://drive.google.com/file/d/1xgTH2_2Min0Owx6kTZrceANc6E7JVM93/view?usp=sharing

    Once you download it, follow these instructions to install it:

    1. Find your Age of Empires 2: DE folder. This should be located in your Steam directory, under the folder name 'Phoenix', eg. Steam\steamapps\common\Phoenix
    2. Make a back-up copy of the folder, "widgetui". You can put this wherever you like.
    3. Drag the "widgetui" folder included in the mod's .zip file into your DE folder. When asked if you would like to overwrite any files, select "Yes to All".
    4. You're done! If you have the game open, even just on the main menu, you will need to restart it before the mod starts working.

    If you ever want to uninstall the mod, just replace the "widgetui" folder with the backup you made. If you didn't make a backup, you can verify the integrity of your files on Steam. This will return all game files back to their normal condition.

    Let me know if I've made any mistakes, or if you have any suggestions for improvements.

    How new scouting works in DE

    Posted: 17 Nov 2019 04:20 AM PST

    So it took me quite a few hours of play to figure this out.

    The way scouting previously worked: You right click flags to set them up and do a final click to set your scout on their way

    The way scouting works now: You right click flags to set them up and the scout immediately goes to them as they're set, and if you do a final click it cancels them.

    This should have been the final boss of the Cuman campaign.

    Lobby games need to have rating.

    Posted: 17 Nov 2019 05:25 AM PST

    I played nomad team games for the past few months and there were always enough people to fill the games and even to have balance. And now in DE all this is broken because nomad, arena ,BF, any water maps are outlisted and unplayable at the moment. I have already had 3 ranked games where people quit on second 10 because the map had water or Oasis. And I played a nomad team game where I am sure I could have beaten all the others 1v7 and I am not even good.

    I dont really see why there is a need of a match-making system. The ELO system works perfectly fine even without match-making. For me its purpose is to balance the games and if you have played enough games - around 30-40 it will show your exact skills and you will be near people on your level. I dont care about the ladder - whether I am #200, #500 or #1000, I just want to play balanced games on maps I like. And actually I dont see how this new match-making affects pro players positively either.

    For me the solution is to add rating to the unranked games or to add new ladders.

    Moonfaller vs AOE2DE

    Has pathfinding not been changed at all?

    Posted: 17 Nov 2019 01:55 AM PST

    I remember devs answered to the question about pathfinding that they drastically improved the pathfinding of the trade carts. And that's it, they didn't give any additional info.

    Several multiplayer games in and I notice that pathfinding is still the same. The good-old-clunky units.

    Quick example: a vill trapped between trees and a lumber camp (which he builds) is still not going to chop wood after finishing the construction. It's such a small thing but it hasn't been patched.

    Any info about pathfinding?

    This legend in my physics class did his presentation on the physics of medieval siege weapons. Just in time for DE.

    Can you rejoin a ranked game after being disconnected?

    Posted: 17 Nov 2019 06:46 AM PST

    I just bought AOE2 DE and was disconnected in the middle of a ranked game. The game was directly through the multiplayer button in the main menu of the definitive edition, not through some third party thing. If the ability to rejoin exists, how do I do it?

    Posted: 17 Nov 2019 04:37 AM PST

    Funny little guy, just wanted to say the stats:

    • Infantry Class

    • 50 HP

    • 1.1 Movement Speed

    • 4 LOS

    • 9 Melee Damage; +2 vs. Buildings; +2 vs. Eagle Warriors; +9 vs. Heroes

    • 1.8 Attack Speed

    • 1/1 Armor (Melee/Pierce)

    Wiki states that they're trainable (somewhere?) but I can't confirm that.

    AoE 2 Definitve edition on Windows 7

    Posted: 17 Nov 2019 04:30 AM PST

    I've just installed the game on my computer, but no matter how many times I try it won't start. I heard somewhere that the game won't run on Windows 7. Is that correct?

    Definitive edition resolution

    Posted: 17 Nov 2019 01:57 AM PST

    So I'm playing on a 1280x1024 monitor but the problem is the main menu is in a lower resolution (1280x800 I think) and it's annoying. Any fix for this?

    Can we already consider that 2DE failed on its mission?

    Posted: 17 Nov 2019 07:45 AM PST

    Many would think that AoE2DE would finally end the fracture of the community that happens between HD and Voobly's WK. And yet, the game has been released in a state so buggy one may think this is a SEGA game. The connectivity managed the miracle of being worse than HD and many can't even finish a match without disconnecting.

    What happened? Was there simply no beta testing? Will the people be patient and wait for patches, or is everyone just going to head back to Voobly once again?

    Favorite campaign story?

    Not referring to the campaign levels or missions or anything. Just the story in general, not gameplay.

    Mouse still not confined to window in AOE2DE with fullscreen and clamp enabled.

    Posted: 17 Nov 2019 03:21 AM PST

    I've tried full reinstallation, different launch settings, closing all other programs, and the old HD trick of alt+tab to re-select AOE2DE as main window. My computer qualifies for multiplayer, and here are screenshots of my settings.

    I didn't have this issue in the Beta; the game is unplayable with this problem. Worst part is, I can't find anyone else with this issue on the forums.

    I submitted a bug report with a dxdiag to the forums, but I am still posting here in the hopes someone else has a similar issue and has been able to resolve it.

    Small Trees/ Grid for DE?

    Posted: 17 Nov 2019 07:03 AM PST

    obviously the game has built in grid but its too harsh, I also can not see shit with all the tree blocking the view, is there anyway to get small trees and a more voobly/HD like Grid mod yet?
