Ok, I was wondering if this is possible. I know that this is moddable to make 2 different units (one infantry one cavalry) out game (cant really find the right word . . .). but would it be possible to create a mod that allows units in-game, like in-battle, to dismount and mount on horses? like, for instance, you see triarii coming at your greek cavlary, rather than going to a suicide charge, you order them to dismount and attack, giving them a slight more of a chance to live. this is probably impossible, but is it even possible to do something along the lines of what I heard: that in mediveil (sp?) you can dismount certain knightly units before a battle (never played mediveil) , does anyone think implementing that in rtw is possible?
as for the mount-dismount in-battle, prehaps a way to do this would be to somehow to use seige wepons? remodel, reskin, recode, and reanimate say, a ram to be a group of horses? (dont ask me what a group of horses would be doing standing in the middle of a battle) so then, when say, some eastern infantry come and decide to ride the horses. you tell them to "pick up the siege equipment" and they all get their horse and ride and you reanimate the push-ram animation and change it to fs_hc_spearman or something, then at least they can ride the horse (you make the ram speed faster). this helps them to get from one place to another, but i dont think they can fight (seige wepons cant fight), and if they do, the game may crash. but anyway, is this possible? can this be implemented into the rtw engine?
