Here are the "Persian" units...

" UNIT_PERSIAN_SLINGER THESE MUST BE IN,NO DISSCUSION" - The awsome persian slingers...:yes:

" UNIT_PERSIAN_SPARABARA" - Persian Eastern Infantry

" UNIT_PERSIAN_ARCHER" - The persian archer

" Nabatean Archers" - my {very} quqicly reskined persain archers...

" UNIT_PERSIAN_ELITE_ARCHER" - I think these are the standard eastern archers...:inquisitive:

" UNIT_PERSIAN_JAVELIN" - persian javelinmen...look preety nice if you ask me...

I think these shoud be uniqe to nabateans....
Since they have more of that "desert" felling...

atm. the nabateans are just a mix of already used units. Maybe you don´t have all to be unique - but a certain "alien" touch makes gameplay more enjoyable.

Skull
08-16-2011, 21:25

Ok, for Alpha I implent them just for nabateans, as we don´t have textures for the others. Later we can still disscuss it.

@Skull: I implented your texture of the bosporian chosen archer warband. It looks like this:
1903
Half of the front is missing. Since I don´t have this problem with any other unit, or even the barbarian officer in the right of the picture, It looks to me like you have made a mistake in the Texture. From behind it works well, btw - There is no hole in the men.

Maybe you could go over it again.
Edit: The archers from the side.
1904

Magneto

Sorry, Skull, there is another error:

19051906
Here it is the spear - it is invisible. Also, why did you gave them the lorbeers on the shield?

And well, If you overwork it again, maybe you could use the warband_longshield Soldier? The Soldier part of the Texture you could just copy, you would just have to make a new shield (maybe without lorbeers)

That ain't a chosen archer...
It's a standard barbarian archer.

Well, it´s called warband_archer - In descr_model battle this is the chosen archer one. But I didn´t know it was valkars, sorry for that then.

Ah well, if you don´t like it, you don´t have to. You could give them that shield, of course - Do what you like most.

And can´t you do anything about the invisible Spear?

So you like watching naked men running around?
Also,these are Bosporians we are talking about,a civilsed nation - clothing.

My thoughts exactly.

Well, someone here mentioned naked greek peltasts ...

So I have to remove the texture again?

You have to model it...
But don't.
I will make a new one....
You won't see the diffirance,but I will use the right texture...
Yeah...I made a mistake there....

I was referring to the Nabataeans, sorry. Who in fact did not wear pants. Check any depiction you want. No pants. This might be the better idea:
1916


Also I do not see a connection with being "civilised" and wearing pants. Romans didn't wear pants.

Eitherway as some historical tips are clearly not wanted or welcome here, you will not have to worry about dealing with me in a polite manner again. Succes with your mod anyways.

Well, I originally asked because I had problems installing the dds-converter. Works now, though. I´ll see if I can do something nice with it.
