Thread: Blue Franks

  1. #1

    Default Blue Franks

    Time to roll out my first mod for Attila. This one is very small, but it might be welcome to those of your that liked the original Barbarian Invasion.

    I was kind of irked how, in Attila, it seems like all the Germanic factions are green and brown. I wanted the classic "blue Franks" of BI to add some flavor. I recolored their icon, their strat-map color, and their uniform colors to be shades of blue.

    It is not compatible with Magnar's Custom Battle factions unlocker. Sorry.

    Also, if you want some stuff to expect for the future, I am working on a Celtic and Slavic roster mod to enhance the factions that CA didn't flesh out. Currently they are unplayable, but they should add variety to the enemies you fight.

    Was hoping someone would do this, many thanks. It seemed they should be blue, maybe because of French Napoleonic uniforms, but more likely (I suspect) conditioning from Age of Empires II all those years ago!

    Oh crap, I knew I forgot something.

    Sorry, it was very late when I made this. Thank you for the pics Samourai.

    I look forward to your Celtic and Slavic unit rosters. Will they simply be reskins of other units or will they have some unique flavor?

    As you, for some "unclear" reasons I wanted to have the franks in blue. So I made a little mod for personal use. Unfortunately, there is a mantle that some units wear that stays green, no matter what you change in the "faction_uniform_colours_tables" and the "factions_tables". I searched in the textures files but couldn't find it (the frankish mantle one seems to be uncolored).

    When I saw your mod I hoped you managed to fix that, but it is not the case. Any idea ?

    Can you also change their faction symbol to blue too?

    I believe I did? Unless I uploaded the wrong version, it should be a bluish tint.

    I'll check when I am done with my school work.

    Great mod!

    A question: what tools did you use? Is there a tutorial (rome 2 perhaps) on how to do this?

    Hello. Firstly, great mod. Seems strange but my enjoyment of my Frank campaign has grow hugely. Unfortunately this mod doesnt work since the update. I have tested with and without all other mods. Game won't load with this mod enabled. Any chance of a fix? Or advice on how I could fix it? Thanks again

    This is killing me. Tried to fix it in PFM but can't work out what's affecting it.
