Horse Archers guide is it still available?

[Big Bear]

Hi, am adding some now units to the game. I've done this before using the Horse Archers compilation guide. But the bloody thing has got corupted somehow and i can't see where I'm going wrong. Is this still available somewhere or is there another guide that does the same sort of thing. I'm damned if i can see where the texting is wrong and in the past i used that.

Cheers

Thanks dude, still a bit perplexed, the texting looks fine, maybe something to do with the unit card? I've been over the rest for a good four hours (A curry interuption exepted) and all i get is a CTD at the splash screen. It's more perplexing because I've done this before with no problems. I thought i was maybe missing somthing that i took from the Horse Archer set of tutorials but it looks fine.
Maybe have to go back to square one and start again.

Can you post here anything you have added/changed?

Hi, sorry dude I decided to go back to square one. But I did notice that i am using PSP 9 which compreses but only at 24 bit, on looking at the tutorials I need 32 bit for the unit cards. I think this is where things were going astray. (I was using a mates computer when I did unit cards before).Best plan I think is to download GIMP because this uses this facility. I'll be hammering away at it for a wee while more and if nothing works then I'll take up your offer about the files, I must say they looked fine and were in accordance with the Tutorial you sent me to.
Thanks for the prompt reply, apreciated.

Yours

Hi, got it sortred, there were two problems, first i had my CAS files in too long a string of letters without a relevant _ , which is dumb. And as i thought after reading the tutorials you chaps put me onto, the UI cards had to be compressed and in 32 bit format, so downloaded GIMP and used that. I had made UI cards before but on a freinds computer and I think it was Photoshop or something, whatever it did the 32 bit thing never came up.
GIMP isn't bad for freeware by a long way, but PSP is my buggy so I'll stick with that for most things. I have to justify the penny short of a 100 notes I shelled out on it, so maybe that's Scottish miserlyness.
A pity the Horse Archer compilation isn't available anymore that was a great baisic set of tutorials that got me started off a couple of years ago.
Thanks again to all at the site for holding my hand through the latest bump on the rocky road of RTW modding.

All the best
