Everything you ever wanted to know about banners!

[majhorn]

im having a realy big problem with this battle map banner thing every time i try to add the banner textures it completely screws up the game both original game and all my mods, ive copied stainles steels banner.textures over to kingdoms grand campaign copied it to original game, made my own but it just keeps messing the battles up giving me mostly missing textures (just black coloured screen basicly) and then a crash a second later. i have to keep reinstalling everything because of it im just about at the point of throwing the game out the ******* window, be great if some 1 could tell me what im doing wrong

hello, someone know where its findable the special unit's banners? Such the ones for religious orders(templar, santiago, teutonic). I already downloaded the B.Ward banner, but I guess the order's banners are different from the faction banners.
Thanks in advance

You would have to create new entries for it bro, SS already uses it so take a look at their descr_banners_new.xml file.

[VINC.XXIII]

yes us too, from the mod King and banners, but I shearched a proper template, as released B.Ward for current faction and royal banners.

I think I have to unpack my game to find what I want

cheers

Sorry I have a problem of making battle banners ingame to wave, i assign the lowest part to Lupperarm, middle part to Lelbow and higest Lhand. In game after that banner is waving, but it it is waving in very big! distances ..

Awesome.

They're generally in .dds format but you can use .tga also if it's a kingdoms.exe based mod. The location for those file types is data\models_strat\textures.

Anyone knows ?

good question.. I'm interested in this too.

also, can someone help a hopelessly newbie photoshopper on how to do trans texture files? or are they really required?

[King William the Conqueror]

For some reason GIMP won't open any of these files. Does anybody know why?

[lolIsuck]

You need the dds plugin for GIMP I think.

[King William the Conqueror]

okay

[Noobio]

does anyone know how can i disable the pole-n-banner for ships on the strat-map ??? you know like princesses, that don not have a banner over them

thanks

[Eothese]

I guess it would have to be done within the model, by deleting or moving the reference point.

[leadhead]

I'm having trouble getting banners to appear on the battlefield. If anyone has the folders I need to go to to get them to show up I would appreciate the heck outta it.

[Absolutex]

I followed the instructions in the OP, but I'm not seeing the new banners over my empty settlements. Deleted map.rwm too. Wouldn't you have to modify the .CAS file rather than the .TGA and .DDS files?

[Lifthrasir]

No, you don't need to modify the .cas files. Be sure that your new banners are in .tga format and not in .dds format.
