how to add units from Alex?

[Kara Kolyo]

So i decided to try to add allied cavalry to xgm. basicly copied from all files from alex the parts that say somethng about allied cavalry. i mean from ui, text, export descr unit and model battle, unit enums sprities and so on. now when i try to start a game it writes unknown unit tipe in export descr building.
can someone tell me what should i do to make this unit work. exactly which files i need to copy and what should i change.
thanks in advance

I don't have Alexander mod, but if it's similar to putting a BI unit into normal RTW it's really simple. You need to copy the text from export_units, export desc unit enums, desc model battle, and add it to the export desc buildings. You can leave the DMB basically the same, only change the name of the culture in the middle. The links to the needed files can remain the same.

Ok i managed to add two of the persian cavalry units. the bactrian cavalry uses the cataphract horse armor, but i'll live with it untill next version of xgm and hopefully Dime will add new units my question now is how to slow down the speed of the new units or the slower pace applies to all units in the mod?

[DimeBagHo]

The slow movement speeds apply to all units. For cavalry units the speed is then determined by the horse type, with cataphract being the slowest.

Don't forget to add the export_unit.txt data otherwise you'll proboly get a ctd when taking them into battle or something the file is located;

C:\program files\activision\Rome - Total War\xgm\Data\text

Edit:
Sorry, never realised someone already mentioned this. >.<
