How to change WRE helmets

**tsar_of_russia** · March 11, 2015, 07:53 AM

It hurts me to see that the WRE legio has helmet uniformity but when they are upgraded to legio comitatenses the helmets are all over the place. There is no uniformity, and being the regular army of the WRE, i think they should have uniformity to their helmets just like their low tier unit being the Legio.

Can someone please tell me how to make the legio comitatenses have uniformity just like the ERE?

Im not sure, but i think you can do it this way.

1: Open the Attila PFM (Pack File Manager), can be downloaded on TWC.

2: Open the Models pack in the Attila data folder

3: Go to the variant mesh definitions, and find the variant mesh definition of Legio Comitatenses.

4: Extract it to your desktop or something

5: open it with a text editor like Notepad++

6: There should be some text for different stuff like skins, greaves, cloaks, props etc... find the one for helmets. It should list acouple of different helmets, delete the line of text of the helmets you don't want. If you only leave one line of text/one helmet they will all wear that helmet only.

7: After that you save, just ctrl + S

8: Go back to your pack file manager, and press file --> My mods and click new

9: Name your new little mod

10: double click on the file you want in your mod, in your case it would be the same place you found the variant definition file. So in models.pack and find legio comitatenses variant, double click on it and continue. You should now have a little mod.pack with just that file.

11: Right click on it and hit remove/delete

12: Right click again and hit add --> from file, then find the variant file you extraced and edited and put that in.

13: go to my mod again and click install

14: click play Attila and go to mod manager, make sure old mods can be played and turn on your mod.

Should be that, atleast thats how i did something similair. I changed some helmets for the ERE axe unit.
