Modding - Fight and Fight2

[Grumpy]

Hi

I'm just working on some new Bif's and I came across some references to Fight(1) and Fight2. I've done some searches but I can't seem to find a list of what the allowable actions are. Are Fight and Fight2 available and when are they used? Are they only available for cavalry or can infantry use them? The reason I'm asking is that I'm currently working on later period pikemen and it'd be good to have different Fight sequences against infantry and cavalry - probably just wishful thinking on my part http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif

Cheers

Hello Grumpy and welcome

I can't help you with your question, but there's a good chance one of our expert modder will be by to answer your questions. If not, I'll copy your question into the Dungeon forum.

well im looking into editing unit graphics as well now, but i am yet to ask CA a few questions, as i believe they may have some tools which might make it a lot easier

Gregoshi - Thanks for the welcome. Hopefully somebody will be able to answer so I won't have to go through experiments and reinvent the wheel http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif .

Alrowan - I believe they may have some utilities to crop and position the frames, etc but looking at the Bif's most seem to have been done in 3D Max but with different artists. I would think it's more important to get the angles right for the different character angles and the pitch angle. I'm using -15 pitch and 20,60,120,160 and it seems to approximate well. There's any number of 3D modelling/rendering products out there (Milkshape 3d, Amapi, etc) that can do the job without the bizillions required for 3DMax. Below are some sample renders from what I'm working on :-
