It depends, are you playing vanilla or a mod?

**Hre2015** · October 29, 2018, 06:44 AM

Medieval 2 total war Default the normal one . i guess its vanilla they call.

Then I'm afraid I can't help you. I don't have Med 2 unpacked and the unpacker does not work for me.

**Hre2015** · October 29, 2018, 11:33 AM

**UK730** · October 30, 2018, 03:22 AM

So I added the Arab Cavalry (from the Moors) to the KIngdom of Sicily in my SSHIP submod, but my captain looks silver surfer and the unit seems deformed in the battlemap.

How can I fix this?

I followed everything in the OP, search for them in the battle models (both ug1, ug2 models), added the numbers and correct name of faction, change the EDU and added the data/ui/units and the unit info.

The model for the captain (army leader if no named character is available) should not be a silver surfer as it is faction wide used. I am reckoning you are talking about a custom officer. Check the officer entry in the unit's EDU entry and add a sicily entry to the officer's model entry in the modelDB, alternatively use a cavalry unit's model from sicily in the EDU.

I am not sure what you mean with deformity, a screenshot will help there, best after sorting out the skin.

Sorry for resurrect the thread but I have a problem. I want to change the appearance of ee_spear_militia unit in the Total Vanilla Beyond mod to slav_levies of SSHIP mod.
I copy battle_models.modeldb codes of slav_levies from SHIP to ee_spear_militia in TVB. And then I copy the spirite files, texture files and and attachmentsets files. But when I launch the game, it keeps giving error and CTD ın the very first second (before the loading screen). Could you help me?
