Creating Different Looking/Acting Characters

[sticks2795]

Ok, so I've been looking into making a fun, goofy zombie mod for Empire. The issue is, even if I make them look like zombies, they'll still act like normal soldiers, so if anyone has an idea of how to make the characters look an act like zombies, that'd be great. (I have no experience with modding Empire, so as much details as possible would be great, thanks!)

First of all +rep for such idea .

I don't know much about zombies, but i think that they should move very slowly....

Making this is quite easy: edit the battle_entities table located in main.pack.

I recommend Pack File Manager 1.13 beta tool for this.

As i know, zombies don't carry any long range weapon, maybe only axes (editing warscapes tables to delete muskets, etc).

Next will be editing the zombie unit animation (anim.pack) and models (models.pack).

I haven't got any experience in modding, but i could help you in making an unit very, very slow.

If you are interested PM me!
