Adding new cavalry

**AmiR TimuR** · May 26, 2010, 03:13 PM

Hello guys,

I am currently trying to add armoured elephant to the game. Of course it is only by changing DDS file.

However, I am receiving error everytime when I try to start battle.

I added elephant model by changing name warelephant to warscape_animated_lod
I added DDS files to warscape_animated
I entered the row to unit tables and unit stats land.
I entered building, etc.
I added warelephant to mount_table/mount

But I it doesn't work although I select warelephant at unit stats land.

What can be wrong? Any ideas?

Regards,

AmiR TimuR

Maybe sure there are 4 LODs in warscape_animated LOD tables. Make sure that you havent mistakenly entered duplicates. Make sure you haven't mistakenly included references to files contained in other mods. Make sure your image files are the right format, and that you can view them.

Everything I made correct about these things.

The only thing is that dds file can not be opened. as you know sometimes because of PFM, DDS files can not be opened, but I don't know if it makes a problem.

Try replacing them with the original DDS files.

I am almost sure that it is about codes. Becase battle does not open... I am missing some point but what I don't know...

Are all your tables opening properly in DB Editor?

Yes... I have tried everything that I know. It has started to irritate me...

Sometimes mod-files randomly get corrupted during editing in DB Editor. Copy all your tables to MS Excel and start a new mod and paste each table back in.
