I've discovered there's a Carthaginian texture for the Spanish scutarii. I should be abe to generate sprites for them, but I'm not sure about unit cards. Are they hidden, or do they have to made from scratch?
I lost access to Photoshop when I had to reformat my hard drive recently, so I'm a bit stuck.:help:

They need to be made from scratch, but you can use these ones I already made.

Unzip to your main RTW folder and the files should go in the right places. There's two versions of the larger unit card, one with a white plume, one with blue. The default Carthaginian Scutarii texture has a white plume, but for my game I gave them a blue one instead.

You're still modding your game then. I think I've reached the point where I no longer care that much about RTW.

I love you, prof, and I want to have your babies!:2thumbsup:
Haven't had any luck with the sprite generator. I've had a couple of files appear in the sprites folder, but onscreen it defaults to the Spanish mercenary sprite.

You need to specify which sprite the game is to look for in DMB. Each model in DMB is generally split into three areas; the first being the texture, the second being the model, and the third being the sprite. Simply overwrite the existing sprite entry with the ones you've created, and this should sort your problem.
