Help Please.

I am working on a scenario for MTW2 that requires me to create some units.However by using the "cheat" method,i.e. create-unit "London" "Retinue Longbowmen" 6699....it doesnt recognise the unit type! I have tried all manner of spelling and upper/lowercase combinations and still no luck,any ideas please?

Look in the export_units.txt for the correct unit name.

cheers shippers!Only thing is,which folder is it in?I cant seem to find it,am running XP

[irishron]

It's in the data/text file. You have to unpack the game. Then you have to run the string. bin convertor. In fact this belongs in the Mod Workshop.

Well thats very odd,i have gone through the list twice and "Retinue Longbowmen" isnt on it!!However i do have it in my production line for a city!Most odd!

Check out the EDB how they are called (must be in EDB if you can recruit them). Perhaps they have a little bit different name. Then use that name or search on the correct version in the EDU (havent had to work with EDU/units other than the peasants I use for testing)

The game's name for the unit is 'Dismounted_Longbowmen'.

Hope that helps
