    SWISS HALBERDIER FOR OPIFEX


    SUPPORTERS: atthias | Frunk | Lifthrasir | Ahiga (Opifex) | Radious (Opifex)
    I only included those that used the word, "support" On behalf of Swiss Halberdier and myself, I thank those who indicated that they would vote "yes" => Veteraan | Flinn, | Ngugi (Opifex)




    Dear members of the Curia,

    Swiss Halberdier joined TWC in 2007 and since then, he has made and shared several modding projects. He started off modding Medieval 2 and later Empire (2009). He continues to contribute being great modding content to the community of TW enthusiasts. He received the Artifex in 2010, was awarded the "rising star" award in 2009, and he was a core member of the Radious Modding team from 2012-2016 which produced mods for Shogun 2, Rome 2 and Attila.

    He has created personally "Additional Units Mod" for all TW games since Empire. His units are beautifully crafted and a joy to use in games. They are incredibly popular for that very reason.

    He has also created the "Unit Pack Compatibility Project" mods. This is also for all TW games since Empire. This mod allowed greater flexibility for gamers to play vanilla and major mods together. Swiss Halberdier discovered a language problem regarding the use of custom Units Mods related to several languages. The UPC Project made several mods compatible so that the names and descriptions of the units are displayed. This was in more languages than just English as well. The UPC mods are used from lots of modders as a base for their own language files. You could say he is a modder for modders.

    Swiss Halberdier is a gracious modder; always answering questions about his mods and regularly updating them.

    Let's have a run down of some of the contributions;

    - "Unit Pack Compatibility Project" which fixes the problem of the language system if a player uses another language than English
    - Created the "Attila Custom Battle Crash Fix" which fixes the problem if too many Units Mods are used together
    - Created the "Attila Custom Battle Faction Unlocker" together with Radious
    - Invented the "Area of Recruitment (AOR)" system for Attila together with Ahiga and shared my knowledge for other modders
    - Created a basic "How to customize Units Packs" tutorial for the players, small tutorials for Napoleon and Shogun 2 and discovered the "Unit limit in the recruitment queue" issue
    - Helped Daniu in 2015/2016 several times to add and investigate several highly needed new database table schemas for Attila and figured out the "Region Array Numbers" of the startpos.esf files

    Here is some further information; an interview of Swiss Halberdier: "Modding Legends Interview with Swiss Halberdier".

    An Endorsement: Radious:
    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

    Dear members of the Curia,

    I fully support our valuable TWC member Swiss Halberdier as an Opifex. I met him in Shogun 2 times and since then we created a great partnership and a good friendship. He is a very friendly and polite person. He is a very valuable member of the Radious Modding Team for Rome 2 and Attila. He became an essential part of the team with always good ideas and his talents. His overall modding work through the years since 2009 is extensive and speaks for itself. His AUM Unit Mods are played by thousands of players. His structurated AUM Units Mods have been a very good base for many modders who wanted to learn how to create Units Mods. The "Unit Pack Compatibility Project" since Empire, in multiple languages, is by itself a huge benefit for the community and this project allows compatibility between Units Mods. The players can enjoy with the UPC lots of mods in their own language.
    His UPC work has been used by many other modders as a base for their own language files. He contributed also much content in terms of community based work like the "Attila Custom Battle Crash Fix" and the invention of the Attila AOR system in "Attila Community Campaign Map with Area of Recruitment/Unit Resources". He shared lots of his knowledge to other modders and he also helped several times to adapt the important Attila database schema tables for the Pack File Manager.

    Please consider this request about Swiss Halberdier.

    A quite decent application. But more importantly, much more than decent contributions made by the intended victim Opifex recipiant.

    Going by what I have seen, this Swiss fellow deserves the award for sure.

    Honestly, knowing him and how much he did in terms of modding I don't even need to read the application, it's an easy yes for me.

    Well deserved indeed
