LEGO_LOC.PACK - NEEDED For the names of all units to show up in-game
DOWNLOAD LINK: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=W9L108XZ
If any unit names FAIL to show up in-game then please re-download the lego_loc and they will be there

• All units are stand-alone, and all are recruitable in the main campaign or usable in custom battle. All but the 1st Rhode Island Regiment of Grenadiers are recruitable by Britain.
• All units make use of the AOR (Area Of Recruitment) to an extent, i.e. all but the British Hussars and Lancers are only recruitable in the American theatre.
• There is a unit-cap on all units except the British Hussars and lancers, these two units are only recruitable in Europe.
• All units statistics and sizes are based on Darth's Mod.
• All units are fully complete except for the unit info card (when you right click during the campaign)

Extract both files into: Program_files/steam/steamaps/data & use modmanager to enable for 1st time playing with them.
(They shouldn't clash with anything although I am new to this so if there are any problems please post here)

If you are not using the ModManager then enter this on the user script: mod "lego.pack";

For single unit packs no using the ModManager then enter the name of the pack: mod "queens_rangers.pack";

Kave-In's Thread

[Actus Reus]

@ ToonTotalWar..

I do think its a good idea putting all of our work together into an all-in-one British army pack, but also keep them seperate at the same time, just in case there are units that people would rather not have in either pack.. and I know Kave-In (&Think Dynamo11) are easy going about the use of whats been done, so when the pack has grown a little more we should probably do that.

Just wanted to keep going the way things are going at the moment cos its working really well.

@STOMPA...

Thanks..

I'm working on the list now, already have a couple done & Kave-In has already been in touch with a NEW unit to add to the next update which I'll add to the current project post soon..

No probs mate, will send you pack have a look and let me know what you think in these early stages!
Great work on those units mate!, not sure if i had complimented you

[EmperorBatman999]

You guys are real GB fans, your light infantry reskin (With light infantry horn symbol) look like Adolph Hitler.

[Theoo]

i like it.. im gona have to test it tomorow becus me steam isnt starting up laughing out loud..whats wrong with that thing

[Actus Reus]

Thanks

I am not at home at the moment, so have no idea what could be wrong with steam.
If you are trying to launch the game via your games list on the steam program it doesnt work for me sometimes it tells me that "the game is temporarily unavailable please try again later".

If you havent tried already, just try and launch the game via your desktop shortcut or the start up menu, if not then no idea sorry.

[Kave-In]

Looking good! d/l now

Thx 4 the offer of help m8 but Toontotalwar is sorting my 1st Rhode Islanders out.
I'd love it if u could add my 17th Leicestershire Regiment in yr mod though (be good to have them as a stand alone Regiment) ........ Np if you don't ,but if u don't ask etc... etc ...

Looking forward to yr Queens Rangers (almost started doing them myself) ...
Found this pic, may help u out a little :

[Actus Reus]

@Theoo - Thats really strange steam behaving so badly, maybe restart your PC and maybe write steam an angry e-mail, hope it starts working for you again soon.

@Kave-In - Thats cool Toontotalwar is healping you out he'll probably get things done way quicker than I would due to my lack of experience, and sure it would be great to have are honourable ol'boys from Leicester as a stand alone regiment on my lego.pack, if you have any other ideas or skins you wouldnt mind letting me put in the pack in the future that would be awesome!

I almost want to hold off on the texture for the Queen's Rangers as I'm sure by your evidence you would do them much more justice (great pic btw where did you get if from?).

Mr. Fingers

[Kave-In]

Great news m8!

You're welcome to use any skin I make m8. I've always wanted more than one line regiment etc playable in game so it's all good

Working on a skin atm . Almost done just can't do gloss maps as my picture programme don't have 'alpha channels (the one i'm useing at the moment is showing up on skin a little )

Skin so far :





Your Hussar skin is very good so I'm sure you'll do a great job on the Queens Rangers btw!!!

Above pic' and the Queens Ranger one from 'Osprey American Loyalist Troops'

[Kave-In]

Looking at yr first post I see "My next project " Hussars of the Queen's Rangers" I think I'll have a go at the Queens Rangers light infantry Unit in that case to go with yr Hussars

[Theoo]

nah when i try to log in it just says logging in forever.. this happen plenty times laughing out loud.. it alweys fixies itself the next day

sorry for offtopic

[Dynamo11]

The Queen's Rangers uniforms kinda remind me of the Rifle Battalions throughout the Peninsula War (and indeed Waterloo).
Are they linked in any way???

[Actus Reus]

@ Kave-In Yeah thats a good picture I found that one last night just before bed-time also

@ Swiss Halberdier Thanks I want to make this thread contain links to info about every unit that gets made and my 2nd post on the thread is going to be used for current project and updated accordingly

@ Dynamo11 I am not sure of the direct link between uniforms and have no information to support that theory, however the info me and Kave-In have on Roger's Rangers and the Queen's Rangers reveals that they were a big step in the modernisation of the British forces in the way of suvival and camoflage use (i.e. using a dark green instead of the lovely but quite obvious bright red that was traditional).

So I think they are probably related as the rifle regiments of the Napoleonic wars would have fought tacticaly more like the troops of today than the previous line-infantry.

Going on information provided by Sharpe and a few internet sources.

[Dynamo11]

Legofingers I here your the modder of the duo and was wondering are you going to add any 'new' officers.
I feel that (mainly the Light Infantry) will be spoiled by either a bright red officer or an officer that doesn't really fit into a rangers unit.
I've already talked to Kave-In about it and I think I might be able to make the officers just not the skin.
However he mentioned you might be doing something about it already so I was just double checking.

If you need my help just PM me

[Actus Reus]

Ok..

I have the new Queen's Rangers Light Infantry all but ready!

I'm stuck with the stupid gloss.map, and cant get the great skin provided to work properly, I have looked at the tutorial and painted the alpha channel parts black but then in-game the units have those same areas coloured black!!!

If anyone can help resolve this situation, then it would be most appreciated as other than this they are 99% done..

I say 99% done because Dynamo11 has recently offered to produce the Officer and possibly the bugle player for the unit , so once the gloss.map situation has been resolved and the officer is added, I only need to finish the AOR & unit card then release.

So should still be later on today, the sooner advice is given for the gloss.map the sooner release, cos I hate texturing (sometimes)

edit: Tis all ok now (thanks to Vanquisher)
