    Icon5 Ever wondered why your Spanish Jinetes have no shields?

    Alright, I want to share here a discovery made by Macsen Rufus - one of the most skilled and productive modders I ever seen on the MTW-scene. All credits/kudos goes to him for this discovery (I only made a few small corrections, in bold green). Remember, I'm just the messenger here - bringing the news to the TWC...

    Navigate to /Textures/Men/Items/Shield2/SpanishJinettes
    and change it to /Textures/Men/Items/Shield2/SpanishJinetes

    Then you will see Jinetes with the little round shields they were always supposed to have. It seems strange CA got it right for the weapons but messed up on the shields, but there you go....

    It doesn't stop them being irritating when they're showering your flanks with javelins, but at least they will finally look right!
    Btw, all this is valid for v1.1 too. Anyways, there you have it folks!

    Thanks for passing this on, Axalon. I never would have spotted it if I hadn't wanted to give shields to the Dornish Light Cavalry in my Game of Thrones mod

    Medieval TW is my absolute favorite game in the TW franchise and I had no idea CA made such a mistake.

    After noticing a few things here and there in almost evey TW game (MTW, RTW, ETW, NTW, S2TW - yes I've been playing S2TW a lot lately), I think it's time for an unofficial game patch just what the TES community has for Morrowind, Oblivion, Skyrim, and Fallout 3,4.

    This how the Spanish Jinetes looks like in a battle with a small round shield.
