Gloss Files
Hi,
could i start by firstly thanking LUSTER and his team for the Amazing work so far.
I first stumbled on his leigonair skins which had the promethus cohort skins added, i absolutey loved them. And to be honest was the only skins i used. infact all I had installed was signifiers animation pack becouse of the great animation of a gladius and broadswords, and Lusters skins (this is after trying nearly every available mod on offer)
I now see this mod is out and it has also the animation and skins for all factions so i dont have to cut and paste the desc_ files. Only i dont think my gloss files work.
the inital skin pack of full legions had excellent gloss effects, and im unable to get these new ones to work.
I have kept my old preference file and use it in this version which is rtw 1.5 and BI 1.6 it has all the glints "bells and whistles" set to true, but no gloss effects.
Also I have a slight gripe concerning the banners. Its just I dont like how on the loading screens the Roman banners seem to be a realistic shape and size. I would realy love to see that attention to detail you so greatly excell in, in your mod.
I admit that I have Zero programming knowledge but i have seen the dacian banner displayed as an Idol in the shape of a horses head. so I cant understand why some people havent fixed them. (the Shapes of the banners is what im talking about here) As far as the images on the banners, they are just outstanding.
Lastly. and sorry for cramming this all in my first post. could it be possible to stop the Eagle symbol that hovers over a units banner?
Is their a text file in my game i can change to stop it?
I would only like to see the Eagle Bearer on the battlefeild.
P.S. its a pitty you and promethus didnt work on a mod together, beleive me his and you'res mixed would be in my opinion the perfect mod. but hey,thats just my opinion.
Thanks.

Re: Gloss Files
Right, first off i believe the skin pack you are talking about is Godzillas MODDING LEGIONS full pack as i have not released a RTW era skin pack. My mod does use some elements of the skins from that pack, but most of the skins are new. The skin files in my mod have a different name to those in the MODDING LEGIONs full pack, have a look through the data\models_unit\textures folder for the names of the textures in my mod, all the roman skins will begin LUSTEDS_ROMAN. My mod only contains a few gloss files that came with certain skin packs i have incorporated into it, the romans do not as i have a low spec pc and so canot have gloss enable so i have not done gloss files for them.
Im not quite sure what you mean by the loading banners, do you mean you do not like the round shape, or you do not like the size of the symbol inside the button.
You cannot disable the eagle above the flags without disabling unit banners in the preferences file.

Re: Gloss Files
sorry i ment to say that the shape of the canvas on wich the image is displayed is a generic shape for western or eastern, i would like to see diffrent shape for the romans, like on the vanilla loading screeens.
and sorry i thought they were your skins.
i guess you wont be making gloss files?
