change unit ownership

**Robsta69** · February 17, 2009, 08:13 AM

Hi there,
I want to change the ownership from the teutonics Ritterbrüder to England!!!
Someone know how to do this?

Go to data export_descr_unit in Data, search the unit that you want to change the ownership (In Notepad, menu Edit/Find), write the wanted faction name in the section "Ownership", and later, go to export_descr_buildings and enable the recruitment of that unit for the wanted faction in some buildings.

If you want to set unit cards to these units with the specified faction, go to Data/UI/units, search the ancient owner faction, and copy the file, for example "#arab_cavalry.tga", and go to the new owner faction, in this case England (folder named England), copying the last file, now do the same with Data/UI/unit_info.

I hope you can do it correctly.

ok,
is that all??
so in EDU I have to delete teutonics and ad England cause I want it to be a unique unit for England!!!
Don't I have to do something with the battle models or something like that?
I'm quite new in this!!

you will also have to add that unit for english in battle_model file...

I thought so!
and that's the most difficult?
Not?
Can I just change the name teutonics into England or not?

You can just change the teutonics into England in the battle_models.db, but you must change the number infront of England to a 7.
Change were you find 14 teutonic_order to 7 england only, and remember to do the _ug1. If you are using the vannila file don't press enter and keep the number of spaces as they are.

I've got it to work!

But my horses are red(english) and the knights white!
How can I make my horses white again or my knights red?

yuo must use english proper texture files - every country has its own, so it is easier, just dont forget edit that number again - it represents number of letters in that line.

where and how do I that?

That will be more difficult, the only texture for the ritterbrudder is the white teutonic one, you would have to open this texture and change the colour with Gimp or Photoshop, then save it for use as england.
It would be easier to change the mounts back to white. In order that all english horses of that type don't become white, you could add a new mount type (descr_mount), using the same data (except the name). Then create a new entry for it in the battle_models.db giving england the same texture as the original teutonic.
