Ok so I need to use the create unit cheat for my aar 9 (roleplay purposes) and I've never gotten it to work for me. I would really appreciate it if someone could tell me, step by step how to use it? Thank yuou in advance.

Ok so I need to use the create unit cheat for my aar 9 (roleplay purposes) and I've never gotten it to work for me. I would really appreciate it if someone could tell me, step by step how to use it? Thank yuou in advance.
1. Go to export_descr_units.txt and look up the ingame name of the unit in question.
2. In your game, open console and type in <create_unit "Antigonos Argeades" "hellenistic infantry hysteroi pezhetairoi" 4,3,2,1>
This will create 4 units of Hysteroi Pezhetairoi with experience lvl 3 (3 bronze chevrons), armour upgrade 2 (silver) and weapon upgrade 1 (bronze) for the respective character. Instead the character name, you can / must type the name of the settlement as you see it on screen.
is it possible to use this cheat to create units for other factions?
Yes, but take care that this faction has the unit in its roster. You will get a CTD if you start a battle, and they don't have a texture / sprite assigned.
What's that?Quote:

.
Go to EB/Data/export_descr_unit
It's a text file that you can open with Notepad.
it's found in /activision/Rome - Total War/EB/data (or whatever folder you installed EB into)
for example you're looking for Galatian cavalry:

the ingame name of the unit is what is stated at "type" which in this case is "celtic cavalry lavotuxri"
so when you type in the create_unit cheat to create the Galatian Cavalry, it would be something like <create_unit Arretium "celtic cavalry lavotuxri" 2 1 1 1>
edit: gah! frontline1994 beat me to it.
Ok, another question. If i want want to make a unit available to a faction who cant recruit it, what would i have to do? I really need to do this in order for my aar to continue. Thanks to all.
Merc unit?
Or use a different faction and just pretend...
What i mean is, would it be possible for me to change something in the data to create a unit for the faction? Im not very savvy when it comes to all of this.
Oh, and im already doing ALOT of pretending.
rather off topic stuff to answer your questionQuote:

files you need to modify/backup:
export_descr_unit
descr_model_battle
export_descr_buildings
there are a few steps:
1: go to EDU and look for the unit, let's take an example again.
For example, I want to make Klerouch Phalanx recruitable for Makedon
Spoiler Alert, click show to read:;352

stat_cost 1, 2002, 501, 40, 50, 2002
ownership numidia, romans_julii, thrace, carthage, romans_brutii, slave
under "ownership" I add "Macedon" to make it:
2: then you go to descr_model_battle and search for the skin that the klerouch phalanx uses:Code:ownership numidia, romans_julii, thrace, carthage, romans_brutii, slave, macedon

and you add the line "texture macedon, eb/data/models_unit/textures/hellenistic/ebhellenistic_infantry_kleruchoi_phalangitai_sor_macedon.tga" under "texture slave, eb/data/models_unit/textures/hellenistic/ebhellenistic_infantry_kleruchoi_phalangitai_sor_slave.tga" to make it:
and do the same thing for the model_sprite and add this line under the rest of the model_sprites.Code:texture romans_julii, eb/data/models_unit/textures/hellenistic/ebhellenistic_infantry_kleruchoi_phalangitai_sor_julii.tga

model_sprite macedon, 60.0, eb/data/sprites/hellenistic/ebsprite_hellenistic_infantry_kleruchoiphalangitai_macedon.spr
3. then go to EDB and search for the factions who can recruit the klerouch phalanx and copy the text over to the macedonian barracks and changing the relevant text.

and you copy it at the back of "building Barracks_K", or more specifically: "city_barracks_K1 requires factions"
oh and change the "numidia, romans_julii," into "macedon,"
4. if you want to see the unit cards, go to EB/data/UI/unit_info and /UI/UNITS and copy the relevant TGA files into the target faction's folder
it takes a while to master but it's easy once you know.
I suppose this has gone rather off-topic now. if you still don't understand you may want to PM me.
Wow, thank you much sir! This has helped me immensely! Even though i get a headache looking at it! I have found a loophole in which i don't have to mess the EDU which i feel a bit bad for because u went through a lot of work for me. This is much appreciated. Thank you.
Ok, this is something i do need to get help with. If i were to edit a unit stats, where would i need to go?
Go to the export_descr_unit.txt file for that, theres a bit at the start that tells you what each entry means as well.
