Your Res Gestae???

[JP226]

I really really really like Res Gestae, the only thing driving me crazy are the other factions. Vanilla barbarians and egyptians and blah everything else drive me crazy when they fight against the julii/ roman factions. So I ask, what mods do most people combine with res gestae to pass the game? What's easy enough to setup to make the game that much more enjoyable?

im just waiting until this mod in complete.... its not that fun without the other great looking units with the Roman ones..

Hi, I mod in step by step the textures for factions I come in contact with and am at war, so playing with the Scipii I added the Carhaginians from MinimusMaximus wich are great and all Mercenaries and Numidians from Warspite 2.0 pack. You can find them both in the download section of this forum under textures.
But I am still missing the sprites that causes some units to look odd at a distance.

i have to say it is fun to play against the vanilla Egyptians tho :original:

Also changed all the horses exept the generals horse for other factions back to the original.

on that note in particular, how did you do that. Did you just mod the descr_model_battle and the export_descr_unit? because the name they are under in the descr is differnt than the mount in the export. In descr it is horse_light, while under mount in the export, it is light horse i believe.

[Cromagnon2]

Lets see if i remember.

1. In descr_mount you copy and paste eg. all the roman light horse text
and rename it light horse.

2. In the export_descr_unit you change roman light horse to light horse for the factions you want to.

3. In the descr_model_battle you paste the original light horse text. [keeping roman light horse intact.]

Thats it.

thanks, big help

just to let you know, i mixed my res gestae with webbird's Xmas packs and it is wonderful i can play and acutually enjoy while i wait

[Cromagnon2]

Webbird skins are good but Warspite's are even better :original:

Also try kalis skins for eastern factions.

i fiind out that the resgete skins are 351 kb each rather than normal 85 kb
whats the catch behind it

This is because the texture size is 512x512 than the normal 256x256. Only in that way you can get the details the res gestae units have.

The thing I did was I replaced all the Roman skins in SPQR with RG skins, it worked out beautifully, of course you need to have some modding knowledge to do this.
