How to use DLC skins in mod?

[Tzigani67]

I just got the Western Elite DLC and really like the texture of the Swiss Guard unit the French got in it. I have added a unit to my own little mod to use the texture on, but the game crashes when I try to load a battle with the unit.

The unit itself work fine as long as the "Model Name" in the unit_stat_land_tables isn't the same as the Swiss Guards (france_swiss_guards).

Any ideas about a possible work around?

Or is it a block CA has placed on the DLC units to stop people from "stealing" the units without paying?

Thanks!

Thanks.

I'll have to live with CA's decision until I get an idea to get around it.
