rome total war units

[Olivier359]

Is it possible to add some untis from Rome total war to this mod?
I know how to add units from different kingdoms mods but Rome doesn't seem to work with a modeldb file

Any one an idea?

[Mhaedros]

Rome and M2TW uses different kinds of unit models, so you'd have to convert them.

[Olivier359]

Hmm, thanks, but wouldn't have a clue how to start..
It's a nice idea, having a phalanx of hoplite's fighting some orcs

[TheDarkKnight]

...Mind if I ask why?

[Olivier359]

just personal Idea, like to learn it.
I'm just a guy that likes to have lots of kind of units in the game. Gets lots of variety in the game.
Just my opinion...

[TheDarkKnight]

I would find it interesting hearing a Roman soldier say "I'm gonna stick you!", actually...

[Olivier359]

I don't mean having all units in the game, just some of them...
So, could you help me how to start. Or anyone?

[TheDarkKnight]

Lol, I wouldn't know where to start. My modding experience consists of discovering unused models and skins in Lord of the Rings Total War files and re-adding them to the game to play with them...Lol

[Olivier359]

Oh ok, well that's no problem for me as well, added lots of units from the game itself, as well as Taro's and others.
problem is one's you know how you always want more

You succeeded in gettin the unit with phalanx in the game?

[Olivier359]

You succeeded in gettin the unit with phalanx in the game?

No no, just the spartan hoplite units, gave them a regular spear, and some other units..

I did see a spear wall formation that looked very much like a phalanx in paeninsulla italica 2 mod though..

[lolIsuck]

You'll have to face that you'll have to fight in a spearwall, not the almighty phalanx.

[Mhaedros]

The phalanx formation is not usable in M2TW engine AFAIK

Hey guys how can I add units from kingdoms to TATW :?

You can find a tutorial in the modworkshop, which explains how to add units
It's hard in the beginning but ones you get the hang of it, it's pretty easy!
Just expect that your game will get a few ctd's before you do it correctly...

[orckhan]

Chariots of RTW could be a good addition to TATW as Wainriders.

[Shingen]

The fellbeasts of LOTR-(R)TW would be nice to have in TA-(M)TW(2).

[lolIsuck]

Both are in Alreadyded's PCP although they might not be working like you expect them to. The fellbeasts can't fly over walls and the chariots don't really work as intended either.
