Hold your horses, there maybe something wrong with those sprites, they worked for me at first, then ceased. I'm perplexed. Lyban searmen's ones look ok with scutarii, just in case. As fo archers here u go. (it's not my work, read the readme)
Oh and :

:whistle Yeah I just tested and it didn't work! What a bugger. And sorry I'm so incompetant, but I don't seem to have a data\ui folder :blink Heres what I changed the scutarii data to:

type carthage_scutarius
skeleton fs_javelinman, fs_swordsman
indiv_range 40
texture spain, data/models_unit/textures/unit_carthage_scutarius_spain.tga

Is that right? Or have I just broken it

there are no carthaginian archer unit cards or info in the ui folders, i just checked. :erm

**HorseArcher** · March 09, 2005, 07:56 AM

oops, no wonder i can't find them. lol!

Yeah I just tested and it didn't work! What a bugger. And sorry I'm so incompetant, but I don't seem to have a data\ui folder blink.gif Heres what I changed the scutarii data to:

^^ That because your you have to create your own ui folder in the data directory and copy the unit cards and unit info there, or unpack the packs folder with vercingetorix's extractor and just copy paste out the whole "UI" folder from the data/packs folder, then you gonna have to move the ui_1.pack file somewhere else (so the game won't look for the old unit cards ) and you can make custom cards for all your units.

PS. Carthaginian archers seem to have sprites from the begining.

I think so, because they are in the game, sitting on top of the elephants. They really aren't a "lost" unit.
But i'm including them in the readme anyway, since i did find evidence that at one time, CA did have them as foot archers. The evidence is in the "construction" folder of the unit cards in the .pak file.

And, also, you wont have a UI folder, you have to create it. This is kinda a hard concept to explain, lemme try it...

CA has the game look for model textures, sprites, unit cards etc in certain folders...but it took alot of space. So i assume they "zipped" or compressed up these folders into files called "Paks" which have the file extension .pak. So, thats why you don't see some of these folders, like TEXTURES in the models_unit area, or UI in the Data folder, its because they have been "zipped" up, inside a .pak file. But they still "virtually" exist on those path names inside the pak.

And this is why, when you youse the .pak extractor, a new DATA folder is created, with those pathnames still intact, therefore creating a DATA\MODELS_UNIT\TEXTURES folder. If you understand this concept, you will never have to ask where do i put this x thing? ever again. Its pretty simple and when i finally got it i was like, OH DUH! *wink*

Note: the sacred band for spain and numidia are not "lost" they're simply not used as a main unit, they are the high level bodyguards.

The sacred band unit for spain is a lost unit, the evidence lies in it's unit card.
The vanilla game comes with a royal cavalry unit card in the spain folder, and 2 different unit cards for the chieftans. That's why you don't have to mess with adding a unit card for it, and why you don't need to mess with the descr_model_battle.txt file.

The only thing you must do is add a recruitment line for them in the export_buildings.txt file.

Also I think we should change the spainish general, to the carthageinian one (there's a skin for it) and we should use it. It's not tooo historicly acturate, but at least its not a brit.

Yup, adding that to the readme. I've tested it out and it works wonderfully. Since there was so much carthaginian influence in spain, i don't think it's historically innacurate to have a punic looking general for spain.

Maybe, since HA discovered the way to change generals, we should just re-activate these guys as generals?
(edit: other than making them foot soldier swordsmen as wierdshady has done.)

We could keep the original for dacia since he seems to have a brown cloak, and just change the cloak color for other factions quickly in photoshop.

The problem with those generals are, that they are missing a big chunk from their shoulder, probably because they use an unfinished 3D model. You can easily activate them by just typing them in the way it is here (it's not my typing, it's someone earlier posted an activated units.txt) then putting them in for work for a faction in the descr_character.txt *wink*

Well, they look like the carthaginian spearman (the guys marching in the intro) for shape, hmm i wonder if that would work.

**Tsarevna** · March 10, 2005, 05:05 PM

Um, about this carthaginian scuttari sprite thing...

I think they are already in the game. I have no problem zooming in/out, without altering anything. All i did was take the original entry for the descr_model_battle.txt, and add the carthaginian texture line to it. Then i went into export_descr_units.txt and added carthage to the ownership line.

type * *carthage_scutarius
skeleton * fs_javelinman, fs_swordsman
indiv_range * 40
texture * *spain, data/models_unit/textures/unit_carthage_scutarius_spain.tga

model_tri * 400, 0.5f, 0.5f, 0.5f

Now, what i have highlighted, seems to be the "default" sprite for these units, since it doesn't have a specific faction named before the "60.0,". You can see the sprite for the spanish ones below it...and it seems like maybe the merc sprite is the one that is missing...and um, do units need sprites anyway?
Am i wrong here?

edit: yup i was wrong. the "default" sprites emboldened are for the mercenaries.

Oh, I'd already done the carthaginian archers at some point

And the sprites thing is working (without me doing anything other than making the archers available to carthage) so I think that must the preferences.txt file I got off of you Borsook?

Ok, i'm not sure about this, but there is a visigoth cavalry for thrace, which isn't indicated anywhere in the desc_model_battle.txt, so did anyone find this or am i running behind project again? Thrace is like a greek type of faction, so i don't know what the hell would a visigoth cavalry would be doing anyway....

oops nevermind it's there. It's the upgrade for the generals from the greek (&#33

cavalry they have as the early general. That's kinda weird, gothic cavalry from greek cavalry for a
greek facton. It's like wearing a bikini and rubber boots at the same time.

Weirdshady,
The info you posted for the scythian spear warband on page 24 doesn't work because I lack the textures for it. I downloaded your scythia.zip file, but that file only contains models. :rolleyes Could you post or send me the textures for your spearmen please? thanks.

I did get them to work with the old unorthodox textures tho, unit_barb_warband_scythia_.tga .

edit: damn spelled your name wrong again :lol

Intriguing, whats the texture name and model name for him?

Model: in the data/models, folder, and it's called "Eagle_500"

Texture: in the data/models/textures, folder, it's called "Eagle bearer.tga"

there are no lower resolution models

to get it working, move the "eagle 500" into data/models_unit, and you must rename the texture to "Eagle_bearer" (just take out the space and replace it with the underscore) then move it into data/models_unit/textures.

for some reason, it will just CTD unless you have the model in models_unit, and the text. in models_unit/textures, even when you point it to the correct files in descr_models_unit.txt

Tsarevna; you got it right, they all use that texture, they are all mapped to it, it is in the game after all *wink* ? also good find with the eagle bearer plasticfigurine :grin ! i picked through the stuff in that folder and implemented a couple things(that looked like poo) and figured they were all like that, i guess we should go through the file more comprehensively... :blush

Anyone been able to impliment these guys? The unit_warband_x guys? The textures look quite primitive.
There are some textures for other barbarians too, like briton, dacia and spain.

nope, none of the similar models work with this unit, the textures are not in place, i used the unit_barb_peltasts model (see next unit), because they look the most appropriate, but if you look at their shields, it's all screwed up. I also tried the barb_crew models (very similar) but then they don't have a shield and the textures are still messed up.

But i found the barbarian peltast 100% working: (a little chip of skin missing from their shoulder as i look at them now, very un-noticable)

Code:

type  barb_peltast2
skeleton 	fs_fast_javelinman, fs_fast_swordsman
indiv_range 	40
texture  slave, data/models_unit/textures/UNIT_BARB_PELTAST.TGA
texture  gauls, data/models_unit/textures/UNIT_BARB_PELTAST_GAUL.TGA
texture  germans, data/models_unit/textures/UNIT_BARB_PELTAST_GERMAN.TGA                
model_flexi 	data/models_unit/unit_barb_peltast_400.CAS, 8
model_flexi 	data/models_unit/unit_barb_peltast_300.CAS, 15
model_flexi 	data/models_unit/unit_barb_peltast_200.CAS, 30
model_flexi 	data/models_unit/unit_barb_peltast_100.CAS, 40
model_flexi 	data/models_unit/unit_barb_peltast_70.CAS, max
model_sprite 60.0, data/sprites/barb_peltast_german_sprite.spr
model_sprite gauls, 60.0, data/sprites/gauls_barb_peltast_german_sprite.spr
model_sprite slave, 60.0, data/sprites/gauls_barb_peltast_german_sprite.spr
model_tri 	400, 0.5f, 0.5f, 0.5f

Also, these models look like some spearman unit models, it's unused for anything. the model setup reminding me of the spanish scutarus, but i could be wrong. I can't find a texture for them:

Code:

model_flexi 	data/models_unit/unit_barb_infantry_400.cas, 8
model_flexi 	data/models_unit/unit_barb_infantry_300.cas, 15
model_flexi 	data/models_unit/unit_barb_infantry_200.cas, 30
model_flexi 	data/models_unit/unit_barb_infantry_100.cas, 40
model_flexi 	data/models_unit/unit_barb_infantry_70.cas, max

Also, these dudes don't have a 3D model either, you can use the "warguard" model, but then they look kinda blocky, but they work:
