Call of Warhammer faction in Stainless Steel?

**VidarUlv** · December 12, 2011, 02:06 AM

Greetings. I have this crazy idea.
Would it be possible to transfer one of the factions from the Call of Warhammer mod over to Stainless Steel? I just have this fantasy of having a Vampire Count castle in Romania somewhere and take over the known world with hordes of zombies and skeletons, or perhaps start an Orc WAAAGH! from a corner in Africa somewhere and destroy all of mankind.
A Chaos invasion from Siberia would be awesome too!

Of course I know one can't add all of these in at the same time, but would it be even possible to copy one of the factions over at a time? Sure the units would need a lot of tweaking, but can it be done?

I myself have no background in modding what so ever, but since the models and all that stuff is already out there it shouldn't be too hard I assume. And since this is only for my own personal fetish fantasies, I won't be breaking any copyrights or any of that stuff from the Call of Warhammer folks since I would only be modding it for myself.

I would think it would be possible. However, it's likely to be a ton of work, a lot of reading tutorials, and a lot of files to edit. As I've haven't done much modding, I would say this board and the Medieval II mod workshop would be the best places to get more information.

However, as I said I'm not a modder, I hope a real modder could answer this more thoroughly.

Alright thank you. I'll go check out the mod workshop. Hopefully I'll figure out how to do this.

If anyone else got some tips and/or pointers, feel free to give them.

Yes i have always seen the hungarian empire as vlad like vampirish ect ect..make it for BotB as thats the best mod for 6.4 i know to date.

There are 4 factions slots free so it is possible!
Creating this should not be that hard as the faction does exist already...
That is not that hard... there is a very good tutorial about that!

Biggest problem will be => there are only something about 501 units allowed! They are all used right now so you would have to remove units!
Most people usually remove south/east european peasants and change the eastern factions peasants to "normal" ones... That´s like 4 files to edit => EDU, EDB, modeldb and these txt files...
That will be extremly annoying work as it is veryvery boring!
I suggest you download a submod that adds a faction ( does not matter which one ) and just edit that one!

2 free faction slots, not 4.

If youre just replacing factions it might not be too hard. Not sure if it'd get much attention as a download, but I like the sound of it honestly XD Pure ****ing violence everywhere, especially since the CoW units are high powered.

hey i love medievel total war mods and i was thinking is it possible to put all factions of every mod in a single mod for example hyrule total war plus third age total war plus my favorite warhammer total war in one game so you can play gorons and zoras vs mordor and chaos

Actually it would be relatively easy to port some units, and change the strat models. I remember porting the dismounted reiksguard over to SS, but the mounts gave me a massive headache.
