I've made 2 mods which modify the environment files on the campaign map, getting rid of the awful blue fog that covers a lot of the map. The empire is most affected but I'll be working on the other...

Manually as in recreate the entries not copy them with software

Hi Danui I have a not so small feature request

How feasible would it be to add something for comparing and merging startpos files? Theres a lot of good mods out there that are mutually exclusive...

srry, mistake

Attachmentset is just the textures, the actual weapons are in the mesh file,. You'll need to replace them with the mesh editor.

Name them as equipment meshs and it should work, the actual mesh treats the two textures as one for uv co-ords so the converter assigns materials based on mesh types rather than calculate the...

The file that contains banner info is descr_banners_new.xml. Theoretically by making a new entry in there like main_whatever and specifing a different texture you should be able to use that for your...

Seems to be the case, shame really.

jihad and royal banners only show in campaign play, unit specific ones might be the same

What you do with prisioners effects it as well, as I think does breaking alliances and such

Line 1079 in the 1.2 version of descr_strat is a } for me.

You'll also get it if the game cant find the texture describe in desc_aerialmap_ground_type but thats a problem most people shouldnt get

Then your map_regions been corrupted somehow, you could have saved it as 8 bit instead of 24 bit. Check some of the other values against the ones in descr_regions, if they dont match up you'll either...

right well whats the rgb value for the province, it should be 232 41 55

Thats no good need the actual file you're trying to load into the game, that zoomed in bit has 1924 colours, not 3.

Use a format other than jpg like png, you cant tell anything from that. And edit your posts instead of posting 5 times in a row.;)

1,1,1 isnt a valid colour for the ground_types map, thats not causing your problem though, the game should load with that. The game dumping you back to the main menu is usually a problem with text...

You cant use the same colour as another region and 1,1,1 isnt a valid tile type.

if your saving the three files from the same one the sizes arent going to be right, ground types and heights need to be 2*+1pixel the size of regions in both directions.

@Madden, your problem...

Try using less polys, thats got way too many

Interesting idea, be hard to find accurate information concerning the peoples involved I'd imagine. Would be an interesting mod to play though, it is an area which gets little attention. I have a few...

Dont do this, you'll get a lawyers letter telling you to cease and desist fairly quickly and probably mess things up for other people working on a mod using original content.

They look to be leftovers from the process used to create the attachment set textures. Unit meshs were created using xmls, a sample of which...

I read it and found it interesting if a little hard to follow. As far as helpful goes its always helpful to know how things work. I'm sure the normal map info would be more useful but I fear most...

Never had the pleasure of visiting the phillipines but having just came back from a trip to cambodia I find it hard to believe anyone in the...

iirc there must be at least one tile of the three fertility types per region

2 totally different games there though, oblivion has a lot less going on onscreen at one time so they can afford to use 9k polys for a character and 1024*512 maps for a chestplate.



The kite...

What like the west and ethiopia are doing in Somalia now? Hypocrasy of the highest degree.

Seems to be the case. Bit of a no-brainer really, any form of government is better than none. Somalias nearly all muslim you know, the word islamic wouldnt get the same kneejerk reaction there as you...

Beating a militia armed with small arms and technicals isnt exactly something worth boasting, especially when they seem to have fled rather than fought for the most part. The last time they fought a...

Ya they really sorted out that Darfour thing. As for US support I'm sure the Somali's are sleeping better knowing the guys who gave us Iraq and Afghanistan are on the job. Not to mention the fine job...

Anythings better in your eyes maybe, the actual somalis who had to live with it seemed to prefer the inc to what went before. But what would they know. And the west has to watch out for stuff like...

Eh, the Islamists defeated the warlords and brought at least some sense of order to the place in the past 6 months, now they're being replaced by the same people who couldnt control those warlords...

Ethiopia restore stability to somalia, yeah right. Not exactly coming from paradise themselves. My moneys on ICU here, they look to be playing this one fairly smart.

If you saved them without an alpha they wont have one when you reload them, saving them as dxt5 will just give you a blank alpha with no transparancy. Look in the channels tab in the bottom left of...

You should be asked what format when you save the file. If theres anything in the alpha channel (transparancy) use dxt5, otherwise use dxt1.

Sounds like you might have saved as dxt1 instead of 5.

thats some good news anyways, lets hope they succeed.
