Is anyone have plans to do a Turkish minimode???

[Antioch]

I just played Basileia ton Romaion and i loved it...Andi have the novgorod minimode to and i loved it to....

I was just wondering if there is someone out there who is planning to do a good Turkish minimode....Not just changing some colers and shilds on the units but some real changes and totaly new skins and armor like Basileia ton Romaion.

I an not talking about pink Jannissarys running around...but totaly new units...more turcomans foot warriors or some Futawwas archer/swordmen hybrids...or some jannissary with a shield and schmizer.....c´mon the where the most powerfull nation in over 500 years...they deserv somthing better.

[Point Blank]

Totally agree 100%

Hmm yeah but the turks is the muslim faction that has best varity and look at the moment. Not that it is saying much.
I would just prefere the moors or egypt getting a total makeover.

Yes them to.

Yes the turks do have the best varity but the can be better.

Some units we can do without.
The azabs??? i meen what tha hell are there roll on the battlefield?? the just take unitspace.

Where are the swordmen??? Yes the Hashem are great but where are the jannisary heavy swordmen or where are the heavy horsearchers like the ones in MTW 1 Sphiries on port or something like that.
Where are the religius sects...the ghazi warriors ..the Futawwas or Niziris ??? Whera are the christian vassels..Where are the turcoman foot warriors where are alo thoese units...and don`t let me get started on the fatadims and there unitroster that sucks
We need something great like Basileia ton Romaion and not som amuture stuff

You can do it on youre own like i did .....I did import all the Bc units from Turkish faction and Mamluks when you do such changes you will see SS will be a great mod

It mayby is the answer in the short run but i don`t like it.

All hail Kong for making MTW2 fun to play. And all other who have done all the great submode. It is time to step up and remake all the muslim factions. First the Turks then Fatadims and last the Moors. But who will do it...And who will be the one whos name will be writhen i marbel

Hi Nesai..... Could you please tell us how you did that.....Its a very good idea.....

yes its very simpel just renaming all the meshes and textures from Bc units copy the name of the unit which you want to import in SS mod sorry for my bad english but i try to tell you like this exemple

al_haqa_infantry_lod0.mesh must be paste on ayyubid_askari_infantry_lod0.mesh

and do the same thing with textures just one thing add this >>>__ one to the end of the texture you can do this more time like _ or ___ and so will the game recognize it

battle_models
5 egypt
69 unit_models/AttachmentSets/Final Middle Eastern_egypt_diff.texture___
69 unit_models/AttachmentSets/Final Middle Eastern_egypt_norm.texture___ 0

oh yeah do it with the attachmentsets the same

Final Middle Eastern_egypt_diff.texture___

Final Middle Eastern_egypt_diff.texture____

Final ME Heavy_egypt_diff.texture_

sorry for my bad english again i hope that it is usefull

[Meister Sibrand]

itd be nice to have an event where they become ottomans with a new logo and such

[♔Greek Strategos♔]

Thank you very much Nesai.....I will try it tomorrow...

[AmiR TimuR]

I think a mod certainly necessary for Turks. early era should be Great Seljuk Empire with their own skype blue flag and late era can be again Great Seljuks or The Ottomans it is not the correct date.

I would rather see a HRE faction reskinn..

[MIK TG]

And I would like to see Polish and Hungarian unit rosters rebuild.

Mayby later but right now the turks need it more. The polish where just pesents untill 1600 so they are out.

PS IF some polish punk has somthing to say about how big or important poland were at that time ...don`t bother....because you were not.

They are already reskinned. The turks or Fatadims are not

[dw420]

...or the "rebel"/merc units... which basically will benefit each and every faction


Mercenaries didnt always work in large groups...Yes they formed mercenary bands but a merc could always go solo...or be part of a smaller band...multiple "smaller" bands could be brought into the army and then formed into 1 unit.

Their equipment would either be replaced with army standard if their contractor wanted their looks uniformal...leave them with their own...or a combination of both [arms only or armor only provided]

Mercenary crossbowmen (for example) are 1 unit and cant be reskinned for every empire that hires them (i'm guessing they would have to take up slots for other more useful units)...that means the remaining option is to have them hired and use their own equipment ...which means when someone reskins them, he/she should be going for as less uniformal a look as possible.

(Everyone in the unit will be holding X type of weapon and wearing Y type of armor...but their looks will differ, leather armor doesnt come in just 1 design...same goes for any weapon even if its just a difference in colour [light brown crossbows vs dark brown crossbows] or design [there are millions variations in design of the dagger...but they are still daggers and not a stileto,a short sword or something else.])

PS. The equipment doesnt have to be created by scratch if helmets, armor etc can be "borrowed" from other units with the same kind of equipment.

Imo this will provide the mercs with a bit of, much needed, "character".

Sure...new skins for Mercs is a good idee but once agin...the turks are more important then mercs....

I do not really see the point where it became necessary to insult the Polish people....unless of course some of the pro turks out there are still upset about that little Vienna incident

The insult is not to insult the polish people but the polish people who get very angry if they don`t get what they want.....and they allways want something...new units...new reskinns...new citys......

Not so long ago there vas a polish uprising in this forum. Someone said something about that poland didN´t need new units and then 20 poles attacked him with everything they hade....
I don`t like the turks...but i like to play aginest them and i want them at there best when i destroy them

Good thing I'm American!
Don't got to worry about my country getting re-skinned! We don't exist!
I guess I can throw my towel in with Ireland or England....but I like HRE better.


But come Empire:Total War....watch out because good ole George Washington is gonna stomp some foreign dictators!
