a small but annoyng bug regarding a unit ported from another mod

**Lt.-Col. Dan** · September 18, 2014, 04:14 AM

Hello, everybody
Last days I downloaded 300 Warlords of Sparta. Could't play it, though, due to some error, but that's not important. Anyway, I ported some of those great units in Alex (simply because I had more DMB slots than in Rome). But when I played a battle, I noticed that the swordsmen from 300WoS didn' have any...well... sword. I tried to do this (again) http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showt...in-not-showing but without results.
So I'm asking: was it a bad DL (considering that I couldn't play the mod) or is might be something wrong with the .cas model of that unit?
P.S. Maybe I shoud mention that I don't have 3dMax so I can't see the .cas model

hello! it very unlikely that it's a bad download. if it was most likely the .cas files will be corrupted and wont be readable by the game. if you will, you can upload the .cas and .tga files so i can check them in 3ds max.

epitagma.rar epitagma.rarOk, thank you for your help.
Here are the files.

ok, I did something wrong, I uploaded the file twice. Sorry about that.

corrupted cas files would be very unlikely to work with the soldier showing but no weapon - much more likely just to crash to desktop.. more likely the ported version doesn't have the correct anim in the db file (?) I think you need to supply the extract of the text files you used to add them.

No, I don't think it's a anim problem, because I Dl-ed another swordsmen unit, with the same anim (fs_swordsman, which is the same to all units in Alex), and that unit has the sword, there re no problems with it.

these units are only swordsmen, right? if they are phalanx, they dont have a spear model in the .cas file.

anyway i corrected the unit, i just renamed the sword from "secondary weapon" to "primary weapon" in 3ds max, which explains why the swords dont show up. here it is Attachment 314283
