Dismounted Named Characters in the campaign

[Xorte-Renshe]

I've editted the Highlanders to be generals units, and I've made it so that Dismounted_NE_Bodyguards are useable by all factions (I dont mind them being silver) so that I could make custom battles in the Battle Editor with dismounted generals. (I have yet to try letting non-NE factions use them, though. I just haven't gotten around to it, but I assume it works none-the-less.)

However, I do not have the faintest clue of how to make the Named Characters in the campaign only use the Dismounted_NE_Bodyguards as opposed to their regular NE/SE/EE/ME ones.

I searched 30 pages in this forum and came across two threads that had similar topics, but not the same. However, in those threads, it was mentioned that the highest bodyguard unit in the EDU would be the ones that the generals use. If I order the Dismounted_NE_Bodyguards first, will I also have to edit the starting named units of each faction in the Descr_strat file to use Dismounted_NE_Bodyguards?

To answer the question you pose, no. The fact that they are silver, is all down to missing entry's for those factions in the battlemodels.db. Check out a guide or 2.

What the devil are you talking about? I said I didn't mind them being silver (I already know WHY they are silver.)

Yes.

Thank you. It worked (of course, haha). However, will all subsequent named characters that are born or adopted also use the Dismounted Bodyguards?

If you know it then why ask he makes perfect sense.

Yes it remains permanent throughout the campaign.

I didn't ask. That's why I dont understand what he's commenting on. ///_o
