[Add-On] APE: TI with AUM

[GreekGlory]

I have AUM and i cant seem to get all the unit names to show up. when i take out the language pack for APE and i see the AUM unit names but no APE names. when i add back that language pack i can only see the APE names and not the AUM names. is there any way to see them both?

Greek - Swiss and I work very closely on the unit packages! I sent him the new localisation for APE last night and he should have a compatible version out soon!

I added new units so one or both localisation files need to be updated, I will add his localisation file into APE for the next version once his compatibility patch is out!

awesome, thanks

Hello to all A Proper Empire and AUM fans,

11. Mai 2009 - ADDITIONAL UNITS MOD (AUM) 1.9 has been released

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

- "ADDITIONAL UNITS MOD (AUM) 1.9" is fully compatible with “A Proper Empire 1.3"
- all unit stats are balanced to the corresponding major APE mod.

- changed the naming of the AUM files that you can overwrite the older files if a new version is available and don't have to change it manually anymore

- updated all language files to "patch_aum_en_loc.pack" (English) + "patch_aum_en_loc_proper.pack" (English APE) + "patch_aum_ge_loc.pack"(German)

- introduced all unit names of "AUM" + "A Proper Empire" + "LEGO Unit Pack" + "Sharpe Unit Pack" together in the "patch_aum_en_loc_all.pack"
This means that you can play now all AUM + APE + LEGO + SHARPE units together now.

But there is a limit how many units are shown in the recruitment queue: "*** UNIT LIMIT IN THE UI RECRUITMENT QUEUE ***"

- changed several unit names in both language versions
- the "Indian Mercenaries Infantry" are now for all major factions available in India
- all mercenaries are now cheaper to recruit but have a higher upkeep as normal units
- removed "fire_volley" and replaced it with "mass_fire"

- the "Pioneers" are now called "Engineers" in the English version which is historically more true
> increased unit size in the large version from 200 to 250
> unit size in the small version is still 140

- changed the behaviour of the "Fusiliers". They are now between "Line Infantry" and "Light Infantry"
> they still have a sword and can do "rank_fire" + "square" + "guard mode"
> they have new the "light_infantry_behaviour" and "wooden_stakes" abilities
> but they don't have the "skirmish" function because the UI can only have five "abilities icons" at the same time
> decreased unit size in the large version from 300 to 250
> decreased unit size in the small version from 160 to 140

- added six new custom units:
> "Spanish Tercio Pikemen - Spanische Tercio Pikeniere" - They are elite pikemen of Spain and armored with plate.
custom battle = early/late / only available for the "Spain" faction group in the "peninsula" region / recruitable at the four latest barracks / no required technology

custom battle = early/late / only available for the faction groups of "Prussia" and "Austria" in Europe / recruitable at the four latest barracks and the special building of Prussia / no required technology

custom battle = late / available for all major factions in North Africa / recruitable at the four latest barracks / required technology "military_army_fire_by_rank"

> "African Light Infantry Mercenaries - Afrikanische leichte Söldner Infanterie" - They are mercenary skirmishers and can use their environment to sneak but have low morale.
custom battle = late / available for all major factions in North Africa / recruitable at the four latest barracks / required technology "military_army_light_infantry_doctrine"

-added the following already included two artillery units to several factions:

- 12lbs Howitzer Colonial > available for all major European factions in the "americas_inland" region. (custom battle = not available)

> HELLFELL made two new textures for my custom units "Don Cossacks Cavalry" and the "East European Infantry Mercenaries" which are included in the "aum_mod_***.pack"
> REMO made a new texture for my custom unit "Prussian Giants Grenadiers" which is included in the "aum_mod_***.pack"

The new textures of my four custom units are now included in the "aum_mod***.pack". (total 4)

"Additional Units Mod 1.9"

[l33tl4m3r]

Thanks Swiss! I'm going to leave this stickied!

[Douanier]

my notes on the units that are presented;
if i am not mistaken, the term or unit 'fusilier', was used in the beginning of the 19th centruy under napoleon. Also engineers are not a real combat unit, they were very small in numbers, as they were
used for digging trenches, building bridges etc. Marines should be only recruiteble in areas near the
sea.

Hello Douanier, the term "fusiliers" was used in the 18th century but not at the beginning of the 18th.

I made the "Engineers" as a strong melee force who can build all battle-fortifications.

I will think about the "Marines" recruitment, probably I adapt this to APE.

Hello DeVries, the release of AUM 2.1 is really short. So you could wait until the release of AUM 2.1. It is balanced to APE and the units are not overpowered.

"Additional Units Mod 2.1"

[Swiss Halberdier]

Hello to all "A proper Empire:Terra Incognita" and AUM fans,

All users of APE:TI who use AUM should download my new language file with updated unit names and descriptions in my download section.

> updated the language file "patch_aum_en_loc_ape_ti.pack" (English A Proper Empire:Terra Incognita 1.0.1)

Please notice that the name of this language file has changed according to the new name of the merged APE:TI mod.

You have to delete the old "patch_aum_en_loc_proper.pack" + "AProperEmpireTerraIncognita-Localisation.pack" in your ETW data directory.

> patch_aum_en_loc_ape_ti.zip = the special English "localisation.loc" which enables all units of "A Proper Empire:Terra Incognita" and "AUM".

[Tancredii]

Try adding a_ before your loc file name I did that for one of my mods and both loc files worked fine. Maybe I struck lucky as I am sure you've tried all those load order solutions before.

Attached pic has my data directory and the two sets of units in a battle. You can see my named "detached light infantry" next to the Swiss Line Infantry from APE:TI. Both sets of text work.

[Tancredii]

Am a fraud. Just spent some time going through my loc files again (due to an injury am doing this one handed which is difficult) and it has some of the entries from APE. So I must have merged them in the past which will account for why both sets of units are. I don't rmember doing this and apologise unreservedly for sending swiss and anyone else off on a false errand - sorry.

However I will keep plugging at this issue (just will hold fire next time for celebrating until I have checked)

Well I did some experimenting when I first changed the localisation and I can tell you: no go. The game doesn't use it if it has another name or is in a mod pack

I am ever the optimist though!!

Hello Tancredii and alpaca,

It would have been to good to be true if it is possible...

Hopefully CA fixes that or gives us more information about the handling of the "localisation.loc" file.

Nevermind, thank you for discussing this issue here.

I have always an open eye/ear for suggestions and helping infos.

[SimonB1er]

I just downloaded your new version compatible with APE:TI and units name doesn't appears any
more on the units cards.

[Amaz]

I got this weird problem where I downloaded it and now the advisor panel is blank!

I just downloaded your new version compatible with APE:TI and units name doesn't appears any

I got this weird problem where I downloaded it and now the advisor panel is blank!

I took the APE:TI localisation file as a base for my "patch_aum_en_loc_ape_ti.pack" and added my AUM texts into it. The UI texts are included and should work.

It seems that another "localisation.loc" file is doing conflicts.

You have to remove or delete the old "patch_aum_en_loc_proper.pack" + "AProperEmpireTerraIncognita-Localisation.pack" in your ETW data directory.
