    Default consolidated lost unit question

    Hello

    I know the textures for the lost unit project are all in my RTW folders with the exception of a couple but I couldn't find them. I used the search program as well but nothing came up. I was trying to find this

    Oddly enough the textures for all the other general were located in the models_unit/textures folder but I couldn't find those either, I created my own textures folder but the desc_model_battle.txt linked itself to a folder that wasn't originally there at the time of the installation of the game, so what is going on?

    texture germans,data/models_unit/textures/UNIT_GERMAN_LESSER_GENERAL.TGA

    In which website can the fixed or finished units be downloaded?

    Have you unpacked the .tga (texture) files.... If not you'll need to download Vercingetorix's xpak files from the download center here at the TWC and follow the instructions provided with it. Hope this helps..
    I came, I saw, I went away again.

    Unpack texture folders? how do you do that and what effect does it have?

    I downloaded the filepaser with the xpack included but its only for 1.3 and 1.2 and I have patch 1.5 so I don't think it'l work, can I just unpack the stuff and take whatever models are inside it?

    I thought the consolidated lost units were already in the RTW folders

    They are - they're in the pak folders. So if you wish to access them you'll have to unpack your files, as Kali mentioned. If you're unsure what that entails, try using this: http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showt...33#post1011533

    They are already in the RTW folders, but inside the models_unit_textures.pak file. Copy it to another folder and unpack it and you will see!

    Oh, yes, and the fileparser and the xpack work with any version.

    Nice stuff, problem is I have no idea what to do with it. I got some ui but where are the textures?

    there are many folders such as agent, construction, building plugins, what do they do?

    Oh right, found it now.

    I've read the readme and instructions but it gives me UI and a models_unit_texture.pak. What does the ui do? (what's it for?)

    To extract the models_unit_textures.pak do you substitute ui_1.pak for models_unit_textures?

    Thanks

    Ok I've finally figured it out. But I can't find the texture inside the models_unit_textures pak. The only thing I found was

    OFFICER_BARB_LESSER_GENERAL_GERMAN.TGA

    not UNIT_GERMAN_LESSER_GENERAL.TGA

    as such his face is a shield and his sword is purple

    So if its not in the pack where is it? I clicked search as well and nothing came up for it, there were lots of files from my data folder though, there was only one file from c:pak extractor.

    misfitsfiend it goes like this, after clicking on the link and downloading the file you click on the instructions given by Publius and replace the ui bits with models_unit_texture bits. (The file by the way is in your packs folder in data)

    Hey guy, UNIT_GERMAN_LESSER_GENERAL.TGA.DDS is there, I just checked the folder where I have all the unpacked files.

    Maybe it's not in models_unit_textures.pak and it is in another pack? But it does exist, that's for sure.

    I could check where it is stored exactly, but I'm not in the mood of unpacking everything again, lol, hope you understand .

    Yep I know, it’s a shame that sometimes you actually have to do the stuff yourself instead of asking people to do it for you

    Ok I still can't find the file and I have unpacked every single file in the packs folder. This is a list of everything

    battle open, models_unit textures, ui0, ui1, models_building, patch0, sprites0, sprites1, and patch 1.

    So what should I do now? are there even more files to be unpacked?

    Checked: UNIT_GERMAN_LESSER_GENERAL.TGA.DDS is in models_unit_textures.pak.

    Don't know why don't you have it. If this can make a difference, I have Total War Eras (the big pack with every TW game in it).

    Can you look again? BTW, that texture is not that great!

    Ah I get it now, you actually have to wait more than 2 seconds for every single texture to load.

    On the subject of the textures, no its not amazing but its better than the current German general. This general looks more 'barbariany." with the hair and necklace. What textures are worth it though?

    Maybe its time I got an avatar, google images has some great pictures of spoons.
