Unit Cards .

[haggiseater]

Hi folks i have changed the unit cards .
However i have a problem with certain things not changing in game ie campaign game.


Any ideas as to where the location of the pictures are below to change it to the custom card units i have added .



Cheers.

Don,t know sorry, but very nice unit cards are you modding the game only for yourself or will you release these for anyone to use.

For anyone eventually Icenii .A few things i need to do are complete the whole egyptian unit tree looks a bit silly atm with modded units and non modded units also need to get rid of them icons above there heads so i can resize them properly .

Ok that's great I will keep checking in on your progress, thanks for improving on what CA started I'm sure when you're finished it will be greatly appreciated by the community.

Can someone help me please .
I have followed the tuts for PFM for the past 2 + hours on how to create a mod but i seem to get a ctd everytime.
Pfm creates the mod ,i put it into my data folder start the game, custom battle ctd .
Works no problem when i put it in the actual data pack .

I have the exact same problem. What I've found out is that you can unpack the icons into the data folder and they'll work without putting them in the pack file. So just zip,rar or whatever them. Check my mod to see what I mean:

(and unfortunately I have no idea why they do not show in encyclopedia)

The encyclopedia is build on html. The Unit cards are referenced images in the corresponding html file in the unit folder in
encyclopedia>en>unit
the reference points to a specific location ...so unless the image at this specific location in not replaced with another it will always show the image which
it is referenced to.
Example
The html file Rom_Hastati points to > images/icons/units/rom_hastati.png ... it will drag the image from there and display it...
now there is 2 options..change the reference to point to another location (sometimes it works if the html app is not tied and hardcoded to the exe. ) or put the image exactly there. ..hope this helps

Cheers BullGod works a treat .

Ye i think its in the encyclopedia folder with the HTML documents,So no chance of changing that.

Another problem i have came across is the ability to make a better marker ie when you select a unit, I have one here with a coloured background but when you select the unit you cant see it selected so im assuming its the one under data/ui/battle ui [box_selection] in PFM?

For the encyclopedia?
