In the upcoming AUM 2.3 "language" files are all of them integrated.
My AUM 2.3 beta version is going well and it seems that I can release AUM 2.3 this weekend.
I used applelover's loc file to solve this issue & it's working.
It's any and only one from a selection of mod loc files.
Put one in data folder and leave the rest on desktop while you try them out.

One more question.. Are all the European countries supposed to have galleons and fluyts? I just fought a half stack of Prussian galleons and I'm not sure if I like it, both for historical and practical purposes.

I dislike this, too. Swiss, please do us a favor, take it off!

You have to start a new save game. If you have any of the AUM units in your armies the game will crash because it tries to load them when there's nothing. Nothing you can do about it I'm afraid.
I have a question that may or may not have to do with this mod in particular. I downloaded the DarthMod version of AUM yesterday and I have DM 2.1, but when I am in game I have Ultra unit sizes even though I set them to small (small or medium in DM is supposed to be about the same as ultra in vanilla). Does AUM affect unit sizes at all, or has anyone else had this problem? I really can't be bothered to render 3000 guys in small yearly skirmishes, or to handle those numbers as easily on the field.
Any suggestions?
(I exited the game, made sure my sizes were "small" and reloaded my campaign and also looked at custom battle numbers, both of which were still large or ultra)

The "aum_mod_dm.pack" version has the "Commander Unit Size" of "Darthmod".
There is a how-to in my FAQ to edit the unit size.
Read my last answer on this post about the "unload" problem with "Unit Pack Mods".

Yes applelover and I are working close together.

Yes all Europeans can build the "Galleons". The "Fluyts" are only buildable for countries near to the "East-Sea or North-Sea".
The problem here is that the normal "Galleons" + "Race-built Galleons" + "Fluyts" are not limited by default in the "vanilla" or major mod versions.
My own "War Galleons" and "War Fluyts" are limited though.
What you could do is to read my how-to "remove units from AUM" in my FAQ on the first post.

Unfortunately thats a big problem for all "Unit Pack Mods".
I wrote this on my first page:
Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
"AUM" is fully save game compatible internally to all past and future releases of my mod.
I suggest that you should BACKUP your "campaign save games" before you try out any mods.
CA said that Empire is save-game compatible and this is true. But if you unload a mod then it fails to load the units in your save-game the next time...

Thanks for the response . I did back up my save games and when I loaded a backup one it worked fine, but I do want to use AUM (it's a great mod, truly) but just not with the DM commander edition sizes. But you answered that question too, so I have no questions left
Lieutenant Lord Justin Heron
Thank you for your patronage. This has been Justin's Signature™.
Re: ADDITIONAL UNITS MOD (AUM) 2.2 for DM + APE:TI + IS + vanilla standard ETW
...by the way
Prussia DID have galleons and fluyts
Also these ships where very common at the beginning of the 18th century for a lot of countries who traded by sea.
The Dutch sold a lot of these ships and Spain also did!
If you would complain why factions from India can build ships of the line I would understand!

*** If you have downloaded the optional "Graphics Pack" from AUM 2.2, then you don't need to download it again. ***
CHANGES to the new included "14 patch 1.3 extra units"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
> Swiss Infantry (only recruitable in the "netherlands_home_regions" = this is set from vanilla)
In the patch 1.3 version only the "United Provinces" can recruit them. I've expanded the recruitment to the following major factions: Austria, France, Prussia, Spain
> Scots (no changes)
I already activated this unit for several factions in AUM 2.2.
> Mamelukes (no changes)
This hidden unit was already included in "vanilla".
I didn't make any changes to the following new units from the patch 1.3, because they are faction specific and should only be recruitable for the related faction:
Holland Guard
Holland Horse Guard
Prussian Grenadiers
Prussian Life guard
Prussian Garde Du Corp
Russian Grenadiers
Spanish Grenadiers
Spanish Guardias de infateria
Spanish Guardias De Corp
Swedish lifeguard horse
Swedish ‘Lifeguards of foot’
NO CHANGES to the payable "14 Elite Units of the West"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
I didn't make any changes to the "14 Elite Units of the West" from the payable CA unit pack.
They are fully playable if you bought the DLC unit pack and all names and descriptions are in all four "language files" included.
CA has released these three similar units that I created earlier for AUM:
Swiss Guards (France)
Guard Grenadiers (Poland-Lithuania)
Frei-Korps (Prussia)
My own "Swiss Guards" are still available for France.
My own "Grenadier Guards" are still available for Poland.
My own "Freikorps Line Infantry" is still available for Prussia.
My mod adds now 46 new custom units and 15 new custom ships to ETW. There are other 52 units from "vanilla" which can now be recruited by other factions too.
As always I updated the first post with all new information about the recruitment of the new units and changed the credits.
Comments, problems and balancing issues If you have any comments or problems you can give me feedback here in this thread.
Please write which AUM "mod-version" and "language" file do you use.
There are four versions of AUM available each with different stats which are balanced to the related "major mod" or "vanilla standard ETW". It is important for me to know if they are balanced right. If you see any major balancing problem please report your used version and give me some feedback.
Cheers and happy playing!

Go to the Information about the included textures section in the first post. There are the descriptions and screenshots.

Mods APE 1.04 + hotfix platoon firing + mysore startpos, Aum 2.3

Hello Jaggedx, yes the new APE:TI 1.0.4 release doesn't add an entry in the "user script" file anymore and it has to be changed like you said.
The "patch_aum_en_loc_ape_ti.pack" does contain all unit names of APE:TI and AUM together in one file.
Here some info from my first page:
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.zip” and load AUM at the bottom of the "Mod Manager" or put it at the end of the "script" file.
You have to move/rename the "AProperEmpireTerraIncognita-Localisation.pack" in your ETW data directory, because there can't be two language packs at the same time.
The "Giants" are disabled in the "A Proper Empire:Terra Incognita" version because this unit is already included by L33tl4m3r
