Additional Units Mod - Empire (AUM-EMP) 3.7 - updated 14.3.18

[IGdood]

Hi Swiss, thanks for your effort. Is there a way to just download ONLY the Swiss Pikemen or Swiss Guards?

Swiss, you so sexy.

Hi Swiss Hlberdier
great work
only one thing, I use DarthMod and ultra size for units. Regiments were usually formed of 2 battalions, so is it possible to increase recruits units maximum number , exemple cold stream guards, from 1 unit to 2 units, and so on, black watch from 1 to 2, Highland infantry from 2 to 4 units, hessian infantry from 5 to 10
Swiss Halberdier is your nick so that make me a question why is not swisse region active in etw? is there any reason for that or it is only an oddity of Creative Assembly?
thanks for your work!

Hello maxsim666, yes it would be possible and I do change the unit limits for my own favor in my mod.

explanation how to do that:
Open the downloaded "darthmod.pack" file with the "Pack File Manager" from LtChambers.
> open the "db" directory and then go to the table "units_tables/units". Scroll to the right until you see a column called "Unit Limit" (16th). There you can change the "1" or "2" to "10". If you change this to "0", then you have unlimited units. After that save the pack-file.

I did not integrate this in my mod, because I had to change this every time a new Darth, IS or APE mod comes out.

Can't wait to give this a try!
Thanks!

Happy playing!

Howdy Swiss.
About your Indian Royal Guard, their very well done, except for the fact that they have red skin... Not brown skin. They look like they are Europeans with sunburned faces.

Yes they have some sort of a mix between brown and red. I decided that because the indian continent hasn't only brown skinned people.

I agree on making double amount of units for the battalion size! Good point maxsim!
I have a question to your updated tech requirement, Swiss:
If I have already recruited one of these units, do you think my campaign is still load-able?
Well, in the end I will just try it out.
Any feedback to these ship-textures? I guess nearly everybody here would download it
And another thing. Are you able to add units to specific regions, not just India, Europe or America?
Cheers!

Yes it should be possible to play your current campaign further. But you can't recruit the "Swiss Mountain Jaegers" anymore until you have researched the "military_army_light_infantry_doctrine".

I guess you mean AOR (area of recruitment) units.

Yes this is possible but only if I would touch the special "startpos.esf" file in your "campaign\main" directory. In this file it could be done. But there is a problem at the moment. If any other mod uses this file too, then it would be overwritten.

At this moment it isn't possible to just add things to this file without importing the whole file. The same problem with the "localisation.loc" file.

I hope CA will fix that or gives to us modders the documentation to do that.

I recently checked "Bladerunners" ship site and I will have a look at it for sure.

Hi there
Swiss Halberdier, maybe I'm very fond in scots units, could you put in your mod the Royal Scots Greys, [IMG]file:///C:/DOCUME%7E1/Massimo/IMPOST%7E1/Temp/moz-screenshot.jpg[/IMG]
its very similar to horse granadier but they are the Royal Scots Greys

Very nice picture! If someone makes a texture for me I would probably include them.

Hi Swiss, thanks for your effort. Is there a way to just download ONLY the Swiss Pikemen or Swiss Guards?

No I didn't planned to make a release with only some of the units. What you could do by your own risk... backup the file before...
Open the "pack" file with the "Pack File Manager" and delete each entry which isn't related to the "Swiss" units. So you have to delete each entry which isn't named like "swiss_guards_elite" / "swiss_pikemen" / "swiss_jaegers".

But you have to be very careful not do delete to much and only delete the rows of the tables and not the whole tables.

Swiss, you so sexy.

Thanks a lot sir! It's a honor for me to contribute a special version for your major mod "A proper Empire"!

[Marcus Aemilius Lepidus]

Nice Mod, but I like the marines of Proper Empire more like yours

[l33tl4m3r]

Simply load mod_proper_units.pack AFTER you load the AUM and you should have Swiss' units as well as the marines from APE.

Let me know in a PM if you have any trouble!

thanks Swiss Halberdier

[white_elephant]

Can this be used with darthmod versions which are not commander edition (vanilla size troops)?

[Takeda Shingen]

Yes!

Use this one and it should work: aum_mod_1.6.zip plus the loc file of course

[Comandante]

darth mod 1.7 is out! can you make it compatible plz??

[Swiss Halberdier]

Yes!

That's right Takeda, thanks!

To white_elephant > This version is called "standalone" in my download section and has "vanilla" unit sizes and the stats are related to "vanilla" too.

darth mod 1.7 is out! can you make it compatible plz??

AUM 1.6 is playable at the moment with DM 1.7 and the new patch.

But I will do a new AUM 1.7 and a new language file shortly which will be fully compatible to DM 1.7 and the new patch.

[Rsty Bloodnok]

Swiss Halberdier, How do you change for compatability with the new patch, I have been wondering this for a while now with no luck.

Thanks.

[Mr Tom]

The mod works fine for me, still got the units even after the patch.

[carlitobrigante]

so does your 1.6 pack work ok with darths recent 1.7 release?

p.s loving your work. please think about getting factions like prussia, sweden, united provinces some unique units so they are more fun to play with? Although i love the Brits (and think its amazibng how such a tiny country had the biggest empire ever seen!) they do have way too many unique units compared to the others. Im using the prussian and ottoman re-texture mods with yours and they work together great. +Rep for some great work.

# edit - doh just saw your post above. looking forward to future releases, this game / era has such a wealth of different unit types to choose from, the possibilitys for new units to create are endless!

[TerminatorXPS15]

I'm having a problem right now, even though the localization pack is in, there is now no description for the AUM units. This didn't happen before the patch.

[Swiss Halberdier]

Thanks.

The patch adds a new column in the db/units_tables/units.

But all units_tables_units which are in a "pre-patch" format will work too.

Because my mod doesn't have any campaign or battle AI it isn't too complicated. But I'll have to wait until I can read the updated "tables" with a new version of the "Pack File Manager".

Yep, mine works too...

Thank you for the compliments and rep! Yes I will add more units to several factions. In the next update AUM 1.7 I've already integrated two new russian units and two new mercenaries for East and West Europe. But I am a "one-man-show" and therefore please have patience it will come more

I'm having a problem right now, even though the localization pack is in, there is now no description for the AUM units. This didn't happen before the patch.

Please give me the exact name of which versions from AUM and .loc you are using.
All my four AUM 1.6 versions do work and some users already confirmed that the mod does work after the patch.
Does it show the names without my mod? Do you have other mods with a ".loc" file activated?

[TerminatorXPS15]

I'm using AUM 1.6 Imperial Splendour version, along with the 1.6 English .loc file. Oh and if I wasn't clear in the post above, its only the AUM units without names and descriptions, everything else is fine. Plus I don't have any other mods using a .loc file. All of these issues seemed to appear after the patch.

[Swiss Halberdier]

Hello to all AUM fans out there,

Today I released my "ADDITIONAL UNITS MOD (AUM) 1.7" and it is fully compatible with “DarthMod 1.7 + Imperial Splendor 1.07 + A Proper Empire 1.21” and the new official patch from CA (30. April).

There are four new custom units included:
Don Cossacks Cavalry Elite
Tsar Guards Elite
West European Infantry Mercenaries
East European Infantry Mercenaries

and two artillery units which where only available to France:
18lbs Horse Guard Artillery > available for all major European factions in Europe. (custom battle = late)

24lbs Guard Artillery > available for all major European factions in Europe. (custom battle = late)

Comments, suggestions, problems and balancing issues

If you have any comments, suggestions or problems you can give me feedback here in this thread. Please write which version of my mod do you use.

Because I introduced new versions for three major mods which all have different stats, it is important for me to know if they are balanced.

I hope that you're having fun playing my mod and thank you for downloading it!

[TerminatorXPS15]

1.7 Localization pack doesn't seem to fix my problem either. EDIT: Never mind, Swiss. It seems to be fine now. Great mod!

[smatussek1]

Great Mod! love the new units, but eventhough I downloaded the correct localization pack for 1.7 I still am not getting the names or descriptions of the units. Im not running darth mod, imperial splendour or proper empire.

Is there anyway to make Marines recruitable by Prussia?
