Giving a general a battle model from another mod

[howyouknow215]

Hello Total Warriors! (Is that a thing yet or is it too lame?)

For starters this is sort of a double post, however, it's occurred to me that this is the actual forum for my question. Also the gentleman who's been patiently assisting me for the past couple of days, while I appreciate his help, seems like he may already have enough on his plate and it's got me feeling like a burden.

I'm trying to make a william wallace-esque general (Not script spawned if that makes a difference) for England in SS6.4 and doing so involves giving said general the legolas battle model from TATW. Thing is my game crashes every time I try load a battle with this general. I copied and pasted the folders, files and MDMB entry straight from the original mod to mimic its pathway but to no avail. Could someone who's got a little time on their hands please help a noob out? I've been at this for some days now and I can't bring myself to quit.

PS I've searched the forums already but I couldn't find anything that says how to change a specific general's battle model. That said, it could be because I'm not quite proficient at searching the forums but it most certainly wasn't because of a lack of trying.

Did you increment the number at the top of the modeldb file?

This is only for personal use, right? You'd need permission to release a submod with this model outside of TATW.

Hey you helped me before, thanks for responding. Yes and YES.

[Withwnar]

Any errors in the log when it crashes?

[howyouknow215]

Honestly ever since I edited it to show more info, the log's become a different language. Would I be imposing if I asked you to check it out?

[Withwnar]

I can't see any problem in there relating to this.

[howyouknow215]

Any idea of what could be wrong?

[Withwnar]

No. Somebody else might come along with an idea.

[howyouknow215]

Ehh I think it'll be fine. I've got faith in the guy who's helping me now and I figure he wouldn't help if he didn't want to. Thanks though.

In hindsight, you might have been better off asking this in the Skins/Models forum instead of Text Editing.

does the unit where the general battle model is in got an officer in it? if he got one then look if you got all the things for that officer too,if there is a file missing from that officer the battle will chrash too without saying annything in the log.

i can see a fault in your battle_model code, you counted 2 but there are 3 factions who got the battle model look at code;the first count was good but the second not.
