    Icon3 Port Roman Units into Medieval 2

    Heyy guys,

    I was hoping that maybe someone can help me with this, I've tried reading the tutorials such as http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showthread.php?t=74945 and a few others but I haven't been able to do what I've been hoping to do: however in trying to do so I now have the deepest respect for modders as the work put into this sort of stuff is staggering! Basically I hoped to port some of the Roman units into the Grand Campaign for Medieval 2 for the Byzantine Empire; to reenact some Justinian-like reconquest of the empire you see xD. However this has been unsuccesful thus far and I was hoping maybe someone could help me accomplish this which would be really appreciated.

    Many thanks
    How far will I go for Rome? At least to the end of the street, I hate walking

    And don't forget to change the unit count number in the model.db as the game will crush if you leave it as it is.

    Cheers

    Great! We are trying to finish another patch for IBFD2. I will upload the code for you soon!

    If you want, upload the edu and modeldb you will be using and I can patch in the units. All you will have to do when I am finished is to copy the new edu and modeldb files over your old ones plus the dat folder I will give you.
