    Default Can anyone help me to solve this out?

    Er,I posted this at Skin section but no one replied so i'm posting here .

    Hello people, as you guys see, I'm new to this forum xD and hmm.. I'm also really new to this so.. I'd like to know if these 'skins' they add new unit or they overwrite the current skin of some unit (i.e. like greek hoplites,etc)

    also while surfing over this site www.gamespot.com I found some screenshots that really made me to want to add it but I don't know where I can find them,so also i'm asking if anyone know where I can get these skins aswell :wink: :

    (This unit I believe it belongs to 'Macedon' and.. yes ! same question sorry but as seeing the 3 pictures, their helm is different,I can't find them)

    Ok guys that's it,i'll be really grateful if you guys help me solve out this question xD also.. hmm I don't know if many of you watched this before but the movie's name is called 'Alexander' and in this movie,his army has the Sarissa (the Phalanx with VERY LONG spear) so xD I wanted to know too if there is any way that I can edit the greek's spear a bit longer like this one

    Those units were used in pre-release versions of the game and most are still included in the pak files. Here's a thread that details the ones that have been found and how to use them:

    To get them to work you'll have to edit data\desc_model_battle.txt

    As for giving the greek faction the sarissa, open data\export_descr_unit.txt. Find the greek hoplite entries (militia, hoplite and elite) and give them the 'long_pike' attribute like the macedonian and seleucid pikemen.

    That should worked, just replace the short_pike wiht long_pike. For the skins of that models you will have some more problems i think because maybe you will need some models to when they are excluded from the packs and that's a lot of work.
