The entry for the ug1 model is incomplete - it has to go until the closing line:
-0.090000004 0 0 -0.34999999 0.80000001 0.60000002

Re: How to add an existing unit to another faction
Could anyone be so kind to post the lines for adding Highland Nobles (scottish 2-h swordsmen) to England? I need it for SS 6.4 if that makes any difference.
I did try to do it myself but failed terribly and acctualy killed the game

Re: How to add an existing unit to another faction
If the Highland Nobles exist in the EDU, you would need to add England to the ownership line(s) for starters.
Re: How to add an existing unit to another faction
Right, sorry I wasn't very specific, i needed only the code lines for battle_models file.Originally Posted by irishron
But I've done it myself now, this thread was a bit more clear than the one I looked into before. So thanks.

Re: How to add an existing unit to another faction
Clone the scotland lines or learn to make your own textures. There are no Highland textures for England any other way.

Re: How to add an existing unit to another faction
Hello
I'm trying to alter a unit from Third Age Total War, essentially I'm trying to swap a units clothing/armour texture and mesh with another units clothing/armour. I've been 50% successful in this endeavour in that I can swap an entire unit model with another and it even uses the new animations i.e. spear instead of a sword despite the entry still saying
Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
but I want to preserve the units equipment/animations while replacing their armour not both. Is there a way to go about this?
This is the first time I've really edited the this file so I'm a little confused.
"will help build battle station for food" - or rep

Re: How to add an existing unit to another faction
The animation is controlled via the model in the 'soldier' line in the EDU. Change the model in that line and you change the animation for the model(s) in the armour_ug_models line.
Re: How to add an existing unit to another faction
Can someone assist with the below? I have followed the tutorial and thought I have done everything right but game crashes on start-up. I looked over what I did but I can't find where I made a mistake. Do y'all see something I dont?

Re: How to add an existing unit to another faction
Remove any lines you have added before this one, 22 english_kings_huscarls
I'm a bit rusty with Total War and the BMDB but I think you need two spaces after the red 0's
Does this Anglo-Saxon folder exist instead of using an underscore which is normally used?

Re: How to add an existing unit to another faction
Did you increase the model count at the top of modelDB?
Attach the (compressed) trace log.
Re: How to add an existing unit to another faction
In response to above.
Moon - I dont think it matters. I am using the Third Age Total War mod and all the data is like that and it ran fine before. There is no Anglo-Saxon folder.
Gigantus - I am a noob at modding and what you just said is greek to me. I see a file labeled "mdb" that maybe I should increase the unit count on? I didn't see anything about that in the initial tutorial. Also, attach the compressed trace log???
Re: How to add an existing unit to another faction
and thank you for your help. It mean's a lot that people are still on here helping noobs years later.
Re: How to add an existing unit to another faction
sorry I realized by modeldb you meant the battle_models sheet. Umm I increased the number for my entry going from 2 to 3 for each part. Is there a number at the top you have to add in?
Re: How to add an existing unit to another faction
also
Moon - there is an anglo-saxon folder after I did some digging I found it.
I tried deleting what I had inserted "scotland portions" and moving the entries back down to 2 from 3 and the game still won't open so I guess I royally F'd something up.

Re: How to add an existing unit to another faction
My bad - ignore what I said, I had assumed it was a new unit entry, not a modified one.
Trace log - open the mod's CFG file (in the root folder of the mod) and check for this entry:
[log]
to = logs/M2TW.system.log.txt
level = * trace
If it isn't present or different please change it, then save. Then start the game until it crashes. The log can be found in the medieval ii total war\logs folder - it will be big. Compress it (7Zip is freeware) together the modeldb, EDU and EDB file, upload it at a service (I use mediafire) and provide the link here.
Re: How to add an existing unit to another faction
Stepan, if you are still here:
My battlemodels file doesn't read as neatly as yours - that is, everything is one line, and even when I unwrap it, it's till uneven. I am afraid to tinker with it, lest even a misplaced line corrupt the whole thing
