ORNAMENTUM (63 units) > please read the FAQ below on the second post

Vanilla units which can be recruited by other factions

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

These 28 unlocked vanilla units are based on the stats, costs, abilities, required techs and required buildings of the corresponding major mod or from vanilla.

All unlocked vanilla units are removed in the AUM-Imperial Splendour version, except the five American Auxiliary Natives. IS has own faction specific rosters and I discussed this decision with the IS-Team.

Total re-textures = 120

new textures for Line Infantry + Militia + Provincial Cavalry + several vanilla units which are shown in my album-link below.

BLADERUNNER made the SEALORDS Ship Textures Mod 1.0

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

This is the explanation from BLADERUNNER:

yellow/black for Britain and most nations, as the British is always the generic model
white/black for France
red/black for Spain
white/green for Russia

The 2nd, 4th Rate, Razee and the 24 pounder only have 1 model and use the yellow/black textures. For the not rated ships I mixed the first three textures.

DETAILED OVERVIEW

DANOVA made new textures for the French, Spanish and US Marines. He made all textures of the 63 ORNAMENTUM units.


HELLFELL made 9 textures for the Line Infantry Guards + Swiss Line Infantry + Russian Tsar Guards + Don Cossacks Cavalry + Hungarian Fusiliers + Fusiliers + Royal Janissary Guards + East European Infantry Mercenaries + Russian Ural Cossacks

Installation

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

AUM is playable in singleplayer and multiplayer. The multiplayer instructions are located in the FAQ on the second post below.

The stats of each version are based on the corresponding major mod. The standalone version is based on the vanilla standard ETW stats.

aum_mod.pack is the standalone version for playing with vanilla standard ETW or all other mods than the three major mods below

aum_mod_dm.pack for DarthMod

aum_mod_is.pack for Imperial Splendour

aum_mod_ape_ti.pack for A Proper Empire:Terra Incognita

patch_aum_graphics.pack for ALL versions which includes optional graphics. It's fully optional and works with or without AUM.


*** Patch upgrade AUM 3.1 to AUM 3.2 released - please read the information at the bottom of this page ***


1. Download aum_mod***.pack

2. Download a language file. The language file contains the localisation.loc which is available in four languages. In this file are the unit names and descriptions included.

Download the patch_aum_en_loc.pack for an English version

Download the patch_aum_ge_loc.pack for a German version

Download the patch_aum_en_loc_ape_ti.pack for an English version of A Proper Empire:Terra Incognita

Download the patch_aum_en_loc_is.pack for an English version of Imperial Splendour

Important note if you use the A Proper Empire:Terra Incognita version of AUM:

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

If you use A Proper Empire:Terra Incognita download the patch_aum_en_loc_ape_ti.pack.

You have to remove/rename the apeti_localisation.pack in your ETW data directory, because there can't be two language packs at the same time.

You could change it to apeti_localisation.pack_disabled.

Important note if you use the Imperial Splendour version of AUM:

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

If you use Imperial Splendour download the patch_aum_en_loc_is.pack and load AUM at the bottom of the Mod Manager or put it at the end of the script file.

You have to remove/rename the patch_is_text.pack in your ETW data directory, because there can't be two language packs at the same time.

You could change it to patch_is_text.pack_disabled.

If you want to use AUM with other UNIT PACKS please download an UPC language file:

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

Download the UPC English, German, French, Spanish which have included all unit names of the Unit Pack Compatibility Project (UPC) together.

Please read my FAQ below on the second post to see which Unit Packs are supported.

It is important that you only use one language file at the same time. Be sure that no other language packs from other mods are loaded.

3. Unzip the files using 7zip.


4. Copy the aum_mod***.pack + patch_aum_**_loc***.pack (or UPC) + patch_aum_graphics.pack (optional) to your ETW data directory:

C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\empire total war\data


You can activate AUM in two ways: Mod Manager (5a) or script file (5b)


5a Use the Mod Manager to activate aum_mod***

For people having problems with the mod manager:
Make sure if you're using multiple mods, that the ones that aren't checked are moved to the bottom of the queue. Otherwise the manager attempts to load them and any mod placed after them doesn't get loaded.


5b Add one line at the top of your user.empire_script.txt:

Information if you edit the "user.empire_script.txt":

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

The location of the user.empire_script.txt:
XP C:\Documents and Settings\(Your User Name Here)\Application Data\The Creative Assembly\Empire\scripts

VISTA / WIN 7 C:\Users\USER NAME\AppData\Roaming\The Creative Assembly\Empire\scripts

What do you have to do if the script file is not in this folder:

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

If the "user.empire_script.txt" is not there, you can simply create a new file and add the lines.

Or you can take the example file "AUM - user.empire_script.txt" which is included in all four AUM versions. Then you have to rename this file from "AUM - user.empire_script.txt" to "user.empire_script.txt"

Whenever updating/saving the user.empire_script.txt make sure that the file is not being saved in ANSI format. It should be saved in Unicode format or else ETW will not read the mod pack.

Add these red entries on the top of your user.empire_script.txt.

aum_mod.pack is the standalone version for playing vanilla ETW.

aum_mod_ape_ti.pack for A Proper Empire:Terra Incognita

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

If you use A Proper Empire:Terra Incognita you have to edit the APE:TI start batch file.

Add mod aum_mod_ape_ti.pack; to the end of the APE:TI start batch file which is located in this directory:
C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\empire total war\

Empire.exe mod apeti_customcampaign.pack; mod apeti_modcore.pack; ...; ...; mod aum_mod_ape_ti.pack;

Note that the mod aum_mod_ape_ti.pack; command is at the end. You can make these changes in notepad.

The language and graphics packs don't need to be activated with the Mod Manager or added to the user script. They're in a patch format which loads automatically.

De-installation of AUM and the language file

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

- If you activate AUM with the Mod Manager then you only have to delete the three files and it's done.

- If you've edited your script file to load AUM, then you have to delete the AUM entry in this file too. Otherwise Empire starts with an CTD if the AUM entry is still in the script file, but the file not anymore in the ETW data directory.

Modders

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

Everybody can use my mod for his personal use. Please send me a PM with the link of your mod to ask for permission to integrate my AUM units. I will answer you back.

Recruitment and technology requirements of all custom units and ships

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

- All custom units and ships are limited because of the balance in the campaign mode. If you want to change the limit, then please read my FAQ on the second post.

- Not every faction has access to all units in all regions. You have to capture the needed region, reach a certain building level and/or research a technology.

- All grenades are removed from AUM's Grenadiers. If it’s possible to mod the amount of grenades, then I'll add it back. There is a how-to enable the grenades on my FAQ.

- removed the fire_and_advance and the platoon_fire_grouped drills from all AUM units (the firing drills of the vanilla units aren't changed).

INFANTRY and CAVALRY recruitment

- All custom units are recruitable in one of the following four military buildings: (unless otherwise specified)
drill_school, military_academy, army_board, army_staff_college

- These buildings are the ultimate military barracks for France, Prussia, Poland and India. The other factions don't have an ultimate military building.
prest_france_arc_de_triomphe, prest_prussia_brandenburg_gate, prest_poland_akademia, prest_maratha_ajinkyantara

These units have special building requirements:

AUM changelog

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

I had to shorten the changelog because this page has quite reached the character limit. The complete changelog is included in each of the four AUM versions as a text file and downloadable above in the first post.

7. March 2011 - ADDITIONAL UNITS MOD (AUM) 3.2 has been released

Today I released my "ADDITIONAL UNITS MOD (AUM) 3.2" and it is fully compatible with the following versions:

- official patch from 31.3.2010 and all four DLC packs: "Elite units of the West" + "Elite units of America" + "Elite units of the East" + "Warpath Campaign"

- DarthMod 6.9 - A Proper Empire:Terra Incognita 1.1 - Imperial Splendor 2.1.4

- fully adapted the battlefield and naval changes of all AUM and ORNAMENTUM units in the DARTHMOD-AUM version to DARTH VADER's changes (6.1 - 6.9)

- fixed the naval crew equipment of several units (thanks to DARTH VADER for his permission)

- included the table "aum_unit_class_to_population_class_priorities" which controls and improves the "campaign AI unit recruitment" (thanks to DARTH VADER for his permission)

- re-balanced the stats and costs of several land and naval units

- optimized the "moral", "training" and "abilities" values of several units

- re-balanced the stats of the "naval crew marines"

- activated 17 units from the "Warpath DLC campaign" in the normal grand campaign.

You have to buy the "Warpath DLC" that these units show up.

7. June 2010 - ADDITIONAL UNITS MOD (AUM) 3.1 has been released

Today I released my "ADDITIONAL UNITS MOD (AUM) 3.1" and it is fully compatible with the following versions:
- official patch from 31.3.2010 and all four DLC packs: "Elite units of the West" + "Elite units of America" + "Elite units of the East" + "Warpath Campaign"

- DarthMod 6.1 Enforced Hotfix2 - A Proper Empire:Terra Incognita 1.0.9 beta2 - Imperial Splendor 2.1.3

- fully adapted the battlefield and naval changes of all AUM and ORNAMENTUM units in the DM-AUM version to DARTH VADER's changes

- fixed a minor issue with the ship model of the two "Over 1st rates" of Spain and the French 3rd rate Amerique (thanks to BETHENCOURT for his information)

- fixed the projectile of the ORNAMENTUM unit "Desseffy Hussars"

- optimised the "Path seldom trod" ability of several custom units

- changed the recruitment region of these 5 units:
"24pdrs Heavy Horse Artillery Guards" to "Europe"
ORNAMENTUM's „Continental Marines“ to „global“ like the other Marines
Three Russian 1st rate ships to "global"

- all five Swiss units are now recruitable for the Papal States (Guards, Line Infantry, Grenadiers, Pikemen, Jaegers)

- all custom "1st rate" and "over 1st rate" ships can now be built in the "Naval Hospital" too and it improves the building capacities and diversity
of AI's fleets

- deactivated the following trading ships in all four AUM versions: "Light Merchant Galleon" and "Merchantman (armed)"
The DB entry is still there, to make sure that it is save-game compatible. But the unit-to-faction relations have been removed.

The AI couldn't handle the custom trading ships well and unfortunately if we reduce the gun-layout, then the wrong numbers appear and they cause problems
within the auto-resolve calculating.

I discussed the deactivation of all custom trading ships in the AUM-DM version with DARTH VADER.

These two trading ships are still in the VAN, APE:TI and IS version available, because they work properly: (not in AUM-DM)
"Indiaman (late)" and "Netherlands Indiaman Amsterdam Class"


- included a new texture and icon for the "Guerilla Mercenaries" by RHEVANT

- included a new texture for the "Euro-Indian Light Infantry" by SIR DIGBY CAESAR


All five ORNAMENTUM unit packs are included (63 units)
- included the new unit pack "ORNAMENTUM - Northern War - Poltava" into AUM (25 units)

These fantastic ORNAMENTUM mods were made by Danova, Johan217, Ahiga and POM
Huge thanks for their masterpiece unit packs!

All ORNAMENTUM units are adapted and balanced to the four versions of AUM > unit size, limit, stats, costs, upkeep, spacings, abilities, firing drills, morale and technologies.
All grenades have been removed from the Grenadiers.

I've given a technology requirement to several ORNAMENTUM units. Please read the ORNAMENTUM section on my FAQ to see which requirements these units have.

This modification containes two historical battles: "Battle of Poltava" and "Battle of Lesnya"


> „Royal Prussian Cuirassier Guards – Königlich Preussische Kürassier Garde“ new texture by KLA + icon by POLLUX

AUM Troubleshooting-Guide

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

If you have problems with AUM, please read these installation instructions and recommendations:

> Did you copy the aum_mod***.pack + patch_aum_**_loc***.pack (or UPC) + patch_aum_graphics.pack (optional) to your ETW data directory?
C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\empire total war\data

> If you use the Mod Manager from LtChambers to activate aum_mod*** please read this:

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

Make sure if you're using multiple mods, that the ones that aren't checked are moved to the bottom of the queue. Otherwise the manager attempts to load them and any mod placed after them doesn't get loaded.

The language and the graphic pack files don't need to be activated with the “Mod Manager” or added to the user script. They're in a patch format which is loaded automatically.

> If you use the script file you can add one line below to the top of your user.empire_script.txt:

aum_mod_ape_ti.pack is fully compatible with A Proper Empire:Terra Incognita

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

If you use A Proper Empire:Terra Incognita you have to edit the APE:TI start batch file.

Add mod aum_mod_ape_ti.pack; to the end of the APE:TI start batch file which is located in this directory:
C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\empire total war\

Example Script > start_apeti.bat

Empire.exe mod apeti_customcampaign.pack; mod apeti_modcore.pack; ...; mod aum_mod_ape_ti.pack;

Note that the mod aum_mod_ape_ti.pack; command is at the end. You can make these changes in notepad.

How to re-download changed "vanilla" files and verify the integrity of the game:
> Open Steam > click on "my games" > right-click on Empire > left-click on "properties" > then look for the "Local files" tab > "Verify the integrity of the game cache"

There you can re-check the "integrity of your Empire" files. It takes some time, but after updating you have again all proper vanilla files.

If you have still problems with AUM, then please report these informations that I can help you better and faster:

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

• Which AUM version do you use? (version number + vanilla, DM, APE:TI, IS)
• Which language file do you use?
• Which AUM units are affected?
• Campaign or custom battle problem?

Miscellaneous questions and answers about AUM

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

Which AUM version should I download if I use another mod than one of these supported hosted mods: Darthmod - A Proper Empire:Terra Incognita - Imperial Splendour?

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

Download the vanilla standard ETW AUM version = aum_mod.pack

AUM is playable with other hosted major mods or unit pack mods, but the stats probably, will not be balanced right. First look in the thread of the mod in question, to see if it is balanced using vanilla stats.

Is AUM still playable if a new mod version (Darthmod, A Proper Empire:Terra Incognita, Imperial Splendour) or a new official CA patch has been released ?

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

AUM should be playable with the newly released versions, but the stats "might not" be balanced anymore.

What do I need to do in case if I want to switch my used major mod after installing AUM?

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

If you install a major mod or if you switch back to vanilla, then you just have to switch to the appropriate AUM version.

Do I need to start a new campaign to see AUM's units?

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

No, you don't have to start a new campaign. The units are available if you reach a certain building level and/or research the required technology.

What happens if I remove the AUM mod within my ongoing campaign?

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

There is a problem if you remove an unit pack like AUM from your ongoing campaign. This problem have ALL mods. It occurs because the save game tries to load the mod's DB-tables and it doesn't find them anymore after the removing of the mod.

What if I use another language than the four supported?

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

At the moment you have the choice to play AUM in English, German, Spanish and French. If you load a specific AUM language file, then it converts all texts into this chosen language.

If you don't load a specific AUM language file, then the unit names and descriptions don't appear, but you can play in your own language. AUM will be fully playable, just with no names.

Why are the unit names and descriptons not visible in game?

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

The language file did not load properly.

Download one of the following language files and extract it into your ETW data folder.

patch_aum_en_loc.pack for an English version

patch_aum_ge_loc.pack for a German version

patch_aum_sp_loc.pack for a Spanish version

patch_aum_en_loc_ape_ti.pack for an English version of A Proper Empire:Terra Incognita (this language file is required to enable all units from AUM and APE:TI)

patch_aum_en_loc_is.pack for an English version of Imperial Splendour (this language file is required to enable all units from AUM and IS)

Unit Pack Compatibility Project (UPC) which you can use to play AUM with several other unit mods together and it's available in English, German and French


Important note if you use the A Proper Empire:Terra Incognita version of AUM:

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

If you use A Proper Empire:Terra Incognita be sure to download the patch_aum_en_loc_ape_ti.7z and load AUM at the top of the Mod Manager or put it at the top of the script file.

You have to remove/rename the apeti_localisation.pack in your ETW data directory, because there can't be two language packs at the same time.

You could change it to apeti_localisation.pack_disabled.

Important note if you use the Imperial Splendour version of AUM:

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

If you use Imperial Splendour be sure to download the patch_aum_en_loc_is.7z and load AUM at the top of the Mod Manager or put it at the top of the script file.

You have to remove/rename the patch_is_text.pack in your ETW data directory, because there can't be two language packs at the same time.

You could change it to patch_is_text.pack_disabled.

If you want to use AUM with other UNIT MODS read this:

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

Download the Unit Pack Compatibility Project (UPC) in English, German or French.

This means that you can play now all Unit Mods together. But there is a limit how many units are shown in the recruitment queue. Please read this: *** UNIT LIMIT IN THE UI RECRUITMENT QUEUE ***

Here is the link to the Unit Pack Compatibility Project (UPC) started by applelover and Swiss Halberdier.

It is important that you only use one language file at the same time. Be sure that no other language packs from other mods are loaded.

You can find the other language files by searching for these examples. They are mostly called like this:
patch_***text.pack
patch_***loc.pack
movie_***text.pack
movie_***loc.pack
my_*loc.pack
***localisation***.pack

There are some "unbalanced vanilla standard ETW units" in game. Does AUM change the vanilla units?

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

These already included units are based on the "stats / costs / abilities / required techs / required buildings" from the corresponding major mod or from "vanilla standard ETW". If these units are unbalanced, then it comes from the mentioned mod or vanilla.

There is a "how to edit the unbalanced vanilla units" in this FAQ above.

Why does the "custom battle screen" show so many "exotic" units for the European factions?

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

I take the "Royal Cairo Infantry Guards" as an example: > They are available to ALL major factions which conquer "North Africa" in the campaign mode.

I've set the "late" availability in the custom battle for this unit to "true". Now the "Royal Cairo Infantry Guards" are available in a late custom battle.

Unfortunately it isn't possible to give the "custom battle availability" only to some factions. If this value is set to "true", then all factions can buy them in the custom battle screen which have access in the campaign too.

That's the reason why there are so many exotic units in the custom battle screen.

Are there any units for minor factions available?

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

Many of AUM's units are recruitable for minor factions too. You could look into this file and quite all units which are in the groupings table can be recruited by minor factions too.

If you know how to use the DBEditor you can look into the real AUM table: units_to_groupings_military_permissions_tables/aum_units_to_groupings_military_permissions

Example > if an unit is in this faction groups:
great_britain_group > Britain, Scotland, Ireland
france_group > France, Savoy
spain_group > Spain, Portugal
prussia_group > German minor states

Then the unit can be recruited for all minor factions which are in these groups.

Are there any "United States" units included in AUM?

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

Several units are available to the United States:

• two custom AUM units: US Continental Marines + US Volunteer Infantry Regiment

• All Mercenaries

• several custom "generic" units (quite all who don't have a faction in their name)

• several custom ships (quite all who don't have a faction in their name)

• several "unlocked" already included units and ships if you own a certain region where they can be built

• if you conquer Europe as the United States it is possible to build a lot of European units

How to customize AUM and re-activate the unlocked units

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

Because a lot of people asked me how they can add, change or remove something in AUM, I've created here a FAQ for you all.

TWC WIKI - How to customize Unit Pack Mods (vanilla example)
http://www.twcenter.net/wiki/How_to_customize_Unit_Pack_Mods

Please create a backup before you edit the pack file in case that it doesn't load anymore after you changed it.

All changes made to AUM are on your own risk.

Link to DBEditor and Pack File Manager

You can open all pack files with these editors above. I recommend to use the latest DBEditor.

How to change the "limit" of an unit:
open the table "units_tables/aum_units". Scroll to the right until you see the columns called "Unit_Limit" and "MP_Unit_Limit". The first sets the limit
in the campaign mode and the second sets the limit in multiplayer mode.

There you can change the "1" or "2" to "10". If you change this to "0", then you have unlimited units.


How to remove an unit from game:
open the table
"units_to_groupings_military_permissions_tables/aum_units_to_groupings_military_permissions"
or
"units_to_exlusive_faction_permissions/aum_units_to_exlusive_faction_permissions"

Search for the unit and delete the whole row.


How to change the "size" of an unit:
open the table "unit_stats_land_tables/aum_units_stats_land". The second column is called "Unit Size"

There you can change the unit size for every unit.


How to add an unit to a group of factions:
open the table "units_to_groupings_military_permissions_tables/aum_units_to_groupings_military_permissions"
Then add a new row with the button. Edit the two new columns like this:
1. column = euro_marines_elite / 2. column = austria_group

After that save the pack-file and the Austrian faction group can recruit "Marines" too.


How to add an unit to a specific faction:
open the table "units_to_exlusive_faction_permissions/aum_units_to_exlusive_faction_permissions"

Then add a new row with the button. Edit the three new columns like this:
1. column = euro_elite_light_infantry_windbuchse_jagers / 2. column = prussia / 3. column = true

After that save the pack-file and the Prussians can recruit the "Windbüchse Jaegers" from Austria in the "austria_home_regions" too.


How to change the "recruitment region" of an unit:
open the table "units_tables/aum_units". Scroll to the right until you see the eight column called "Region IDRef"

There you can change the region to "global, europe, middle_east" and others.


How to remove the required technology of an unit:
open the table "unit_required_technology_junctions_tables/aum_unit_required_technology_junction"

There you can delete the entry for your unit.


How to change the "model/texture" of a land unit:

How to add more "cannons" to the artillery units:
open the table "unit_stats_land_tables/aum_unit_stats_land".

You can raise the values in the cells of these two columns: "size" and "# Artillery"

Example:
If you want to give them 6 instead of 4 cannons, then you have to change the "size" to 36 and the "# Artillery" to 6.

One cannon requires 6 men.


How to add "rank_fire" to an unit or remove "platoon_fire":
open the table "unit_to_unit_abilities_junction_tables/aum_unit_to_unit_abilities_junction"

There you can see which unit has which abilities. Several units have "rank_fire" already activated.

> add a new row with the button. Edit the two columns like this:
1. column = UNIT_ID / 2. column = rank_fire

If an unit can use "platoon_fire_grouped" and/or "improved_platoon_fire_grouped", then the unit will use this two firing drills instead of "rank_fire".

If you want to be sure that your unit only uses "rank_fire", then you have to delete all rows where the firing drill "platoon..." and "improved_platoon..." is shown.


How to change the "melee weapon" from "sword" to "bayonet":
open the table "unit_stats_land_tables/aum_units_stats_land"

Change the value in the column "Trail" from "none" to "alpha_bullet". This cell must have an entry. If you switch back to no bullet trails, you have to write "none" there. You mustn't leave it blank.


How to enable the „backpacks“ of the vanilla units again:
open the table "warscape_equipment_themes_tables/aum_warscape_equipment_theme"

All units that are using my "aum_***" warscape themes need these entries. You mustn't remove them.

remove all entries below my "aum_***" warscape themes:
x_euro***, x_east***, x_natam***


How to remove all AUM units if you want to play DM, APE:TI, IS or vanilla ONLY with the ORNAMENTUM units?

Here is a solution if you want to remove all AUM units: (These changes are save game compatible)
open these two tables and delete them (File > Delete table)

"units_to_groupings_military_permissions_tables/aum_units_to_groupings_military_permissions"

"units_to_exlusive_faction_permissions/aum_units_to_exlusive_faction_permissions"


How to activate the AUM unit versions of the APE:TI units:
open the table "units_to_exlusive_faction_permissions/aum_units_to_exlusive_faction_permissions"

You have to set all "False" values of these units to "True".

french_douaniers_infantry france True
prussian_giants_grenadiers_elite prussia True
spanish_regimiento_infanteria_del_rey spain True
spanish_catalonian_light_infantry spain True
east_indian_deccani_lancers maratha True
east_indian_deccani_lancers mughal True

You can now play my AUM unit versions and the APE:TI units together.


How to re-activate the "unlocked" units in the AUM-Imperial Splendour version:
There is a text file called "AUM_units_to_factions_relations.txt" available below.

In this file are all unit-to-faction and unit-to-faction-group relations of the custom units and ships listed.

Just follow the two "How to add an unit..." tutorials above.

How to edit the "unbalanced vanilla units"

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

AUM doesn't touch the stats of the vanilla units.

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

These already included units are based on the stats, costs, abilities, required techs, required buildings from the corresponding major mod or vanilla standard ETW. If these units are unbalanced, then it comes from the mentioned mod.

I made this change to the activated units:

>>> new unit-to-faction relations

Unfortunately it would take a huge amount of time to balance all vanilla units for all four versions.

I recommend to all that you should go to the major mod threads and report the unbalanced vanilla units there, that they can fix it in a further release.

If you play with vanilla and AUM then you could post your issue in the bug-thread or general-discussion thread of ETW.

A temporary solution could be the following:

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

I take Darthmod, AUM and unit limit as an example:
(the following works for APE:TI and IS too, but the .pack + table names are different)

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

How to change the "limit" of an unit:
open the downloaded darthmod.pack
> open the db directory and then go to the table units_stats_land_tables/Darth_units_stats_land. Scroll to the right until you see a column called Unit Limit (16th). There you can change the "1" or "2" to "10" or any other value. If you change this to "0", then you have unlimited units.

You have to do this every time when a new Darthmod version comes out.

If you play vanilla and AUM you can try this, but it isn't recommended:

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

It isn't recommended to change the patch*.pack file because of the patch-behaviour of Steam.

This works only without problems if you play offline with Steam.

Otherwise Steam reloads the changed vanilla pack files if they are changed.

patch.pack > the first release PATCHES
patch2.pack > the new 1.5 PATCHES
patch3.pack > the new DLC Elite units of America
patch4.pack > the new DLC Elite units of the East
patch5.pack > the new BAI patch
patch_en.pack (ge, fr, sp) > language pack

patch5.pack overrides all other patch*.pack files. Please create a backup of your patch5.pack before you edit it.

You have to do this every time when a new patch comes out that changes the patch5.pack or adds a new patch*.pack

Unit Pack Compatibility Project - Empire (UPC-ETW) 6.3 English - 2.7 German - 1.5 French - 1.3 Spanish updated 28.2.11

Spoiler Alert, click show to read:

What is the UPC?

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

Different mods are not compatible with each other if they require their own language file which contains the "localisation.loc". To make them compatible you must first combine the added "loc" entries within each mod. Therefore this mod aims to create an universal "loc" file that can be used to make as many mods as possible compatible with each other. Then you can see all unit names and descriptions of the included mods.

You can play all "Unit Pack Mods" together. But there is a limit how many units are shown in the recruitment queue. Please read this: UNIT LIMIT IN THE UI RECRUITMENT QUEUE

The UPC doesn't contain any units and you must download the mods from the related sites.

The UPC doesn't need to be activated with the Mod Manager or added to the user script. The UPC is a patch-type file which loads automatically.

To install the UPC you have to copy the file into this folder.

C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\empire total war\data

It is important that you use only one language file at the same time. You have to remove or disable all language packs which are released with other mods in this folder.

You can find the other language files by searching for these examples below. They are mostly called like this:
patch_***text.pack
patch_***loc.pack
movie_***text.pack
movie_***loc.pack
***localisation***.pack

Important information for MODDERS:

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

You can use the UPC files for your own mod, just give me credits on your thread.

If you want that your mod will be integrated into the UPC, then you can send me a PM or post a message on this thread.

The easiest way for me would be if you could upload your exported TSV localisation file with your custom entries at the end. If you sorted your language file alphabetically,
then it is almost impossible for me to gather all your custom entries within the vanilla entries. Please upload only your custom entries in this case.

Great work!

[Sir Robin]

Nice work!

Personally though I'm hoping for more of an AOR type system.

[H.r.E.]

the swiss pikeman are excellent , pretty sweet !

[SaDeR]

Very nice keep up the good work, but I would also recommend upgrading this to being compatible with some of the other major mods out right now that people play like a Proper Empire, and Imperial Splendor. I play a proper mod right now, and would really like to have these units and the ones you plan to make in the future. Thanks.

[dolph]

This sounds fantastic.
If only we could see new textures and card icons ;-)

Thanks man!!!

[The Phenom]

Impressive work there, I would recommend that you also make it compatible with Imperial Splendour and Proper Empire, as suggested by SaDeR; since I'm using Imperial Splendour right now. +Rep to you my good man.

[ignasigh]

Just a suggestion, I don't know if it's historically acurate but you can take the swiss pikemens and add the spanish "Tercios" unit.

[Jihada]

I'd like to use this with IS but not sure about conflicts and unit stat differences atm. Looks great.

[hitokiri2486]

This is very impressive. Looking forward to more units from you~

[Chevalier IX]

I cant really tell from the small pictures,ut did you get rid of the ridiculous spontoon that the lancers used to carry and actually replace it with a proper lance???

[ricochet]

I got the mod working with Darthmod, but the unit names and description does not show up. I have placed the english localisation file in the data folder.

[l33tl4m3r]

Swiss Halberdier - Need any help working out compatibility, just let me know!

[Takeda Shingen]

I just posted this in the darthmod forums:

mmmh!

It seems I need a tech for some of the units.

...but it isn't available in the techtree

Its called air gun(Luftgewehr)

So, I suppose it isn't savegamecompatible completly!?
I can build the swiss and some lancers, but I can't find the marines

help!

Any idea?

[Diamondback]

any advice what to do when the "aum_en_loc_1_0.pack" seems to not getting loaded? no unit descriptions for the new units are available for me right now..... ?

[l33tl4m3r]

Takeda Shingen - Aren't these weapons/technology only available to Austria?

Seems he might have weapons only available to austria assigned to units that are available to nations who do not have Austria's tech tree.

[Takeda Shingen]

...well I didn't play them yet.
But if you say so, I guess thats the problem.

The question is why!

[Swiss Halberdier]

Hello to all and thank you for downloading my mod and giving your feedback to my work!

Nice work!

Personally though I'm hoping for more of an AOR type system.

Yes an AOR type recruitment system would be the next step. I saw a how-to recently but it seems that we have to edit the "startpos.esf" and then it would be incompatible with other mods which are using "startpos.esf". There will surely be a solution for that. Also for the "localisation.loc" problem...

the swiss pikeman are excellent , pretty sweet !

Thanks a lot!

Very nice keep up the good work, but I would also recommend upgrading this to being compatible with some of the other major mods out right now that people play like a Proper Empire, and Imperial Splendor. I play a proper mod right now, and would really like to have these units and the ones you plan to make in the future. Thanks.

Yes thats a good idea. My mod "is" compatible with every other mod, but the stats are balanced for "DarthMod". So I will see if I receive the permission from the major-mods to make an adapted version for every major-mod. That would be nice for everyone

This sounds fantastic.
If only we could see new textures and card icons ;-)

Thanks man!!!

Unfortunately until now I didn't have the time to make new textures. But I hope that I can use some textures from the very talented skinners/modelers here at the forum. There are already many "skins-mods" out there which are really good-looking.

Impressive work there, I would recommend that you also make it compatible with Imperial Splendour and Proper Empire, as suggested by SaDeR; since I'm using Imperial Splendour right now. +Rep to you my good man.

Hello Phenom, yes that would be great as I mentioned above.

Just a suggestion, I don't know if it's historically acurate but you can take the swiss pikemens and add the spanish "Tercios" unit.

I can make the Swiss Pikemen available to Spain, then they would have also "improved" pikemen.

I'd like to use this with IS but not sure about conflicts and unit stat differences atm. Looks great.

My mod is fully compatible with IS but you said it right, the stats aren't balanced until now for IS so far.

This is very impressive. Looking forward to more units from you~

There will come much more I'm thinking of some "regional mercenaries".

I cant really tell from the small pictures,ut did you get rid of the ridiculous spontoon that the lancers used to carry and actually replace it with a proper lance???

I didn't changed the weapon of the lancers. They're the default lances from the normal "Euro Lancers".

I got the mod working with Darthmod, but the unit names and description does not show up. I have placed the english localisation file in the data folder.

any advice what to do when the "aum_en_loc_1_0.pack" seems to not getting loaded? no unit descriptions for the new units are available for me right now..... ?

Try to disable all other mods than "DarthMod" and "AUM 1.2" in the "Pack File Manager" or the script file. And read carefully my installation guide. If the names doesn't appear in game, then some other "pack" file is overwriting my "loc" file.

...well I didn't play them yet.
But if you say so, I guess thats the problem.

The question is why!

I'm releasing now the fixed "AUM 1.2" and it fixes the "technology" problem.
The "Swiss Jaegers" are now possible to recruit without the "special Austrian tech".
Also the marines are buildable from start. (sure you have first to build up the required buildings)

When you click with the "right-mouse-button" on a building, then it shows you which units can be built and which "technology" has to be researched.

Can you add clansmans and highlanders to your minimod?

And unit cap for marines
