    Default 2nd Hussar Unit- Moddable?

    Is the 2nd Hussar (Prussian) DLC unit even able to be customised so that a modder can use the model, for say, another faction's hussar?

    Sorry if this is placed in the wrong section!

    Yes because all the content for the DLC was included in the last patch, it was just locked. However most modders have avoided using the models to stay on the safe side.

    Don't know in detail, but i think more than retexture the 2nd hussars himself is not possible. When using the model for another unit, ETW will not decrypt the model and you get a CTD. This was the last i heard about it.

    Generally MC is right about modders avoid using those models. If there is a work around and you even let people without purchasing the DLC use this, it might bring you into trouble with CA.

    You can mod the textures of the DLC units, but if you try to assign them to other factions or use them for custom units, you'll get a CTD. Modding the SF units is ethically dubious, but using the other models that were available with preorders and the like (e.g. the Death's Head Hussars) seems to be occurring without any objection from CA.
