Unit Info Card Mod

[Darth Revan]

Dude, does your mod works for Extended Alexander EB Modification (short :EAEM) ????
or does it work only for Alexander engine ????

I am asking this because EAEM has extra units than conventional EB with alex engine......I guess all the unit slots are occupied in EAEM.........

[bobbin]

If there's new units then I'm afraid not. The mod only works for unmodified EB or EB mods which don't change units or unit stats.

yep, I found that the hard way......exclusive units of EAEM showed some unlocalised unit thing in their unit card while the normal units worked fine......anyway to fix this ???

[Aemilius Paulus]

Oh yeah, and the Rhodian Slingers seem to have incorrect range. Unless it was nerfed in 1.2

Not unless I decide to make a version for EAEM, which i won't be doing in the forseeable future as I'm slogging through the next version and I don't have alex.

You could copy the descriptions for the new units on to the end of my my file so you won't get the unlocalised text thing but you won't see any extra info for those units.

@AP The Rhodian slingers range was nerfed in 1.2 its down to 195m where before it was around 210m.

I installed EB for BI and now the unit ranges and ammo are not appearing anymore. I don't want to replace the file because I don't know if it was changed in the EB for Bi installation so I don't want to mess it all up.

[bobbin]

Sorry can't really help you there.

All i can suggest is to make a copy of the current export_unit.txt file and then try replacing it with my one, if it messes up the game you can always use the copy to fix it.

[Fierro]

Well I replaced the file and haven't run into any problems yet other than the ranges are still not coming up :( "hardy" and "elite" and the other stats are here though.
If it makes any difference I forgot to mention that I installed the 1.2 mod pack along with upgrading to BI.

Any ideas.. this mod is ridiculously useful and would be especially useful since I'm doing a saka campaign and much of my army is based on archer

When you open up the export_unit.txt in your EB/data/text folder are the range values in the file or are they missing?

Hmm. No they are not there.
I am positive that I replaced it with the file you made though. Is it possible that the game notices something doesn't add up and reverts back to the original file by itself?
If not, I guess there's a chance that I made an error while setting it up. I'll re-DL and try putting it back and see how that goes.

Edit- I've found the problem and it was all my fault. For whatever reason I replaced the export_units file in the RTW folder, not the EB folder. Just a careless mistake I guess but I must admit I surprised myself being able to do something so stupid. I loaded up the game and rage values are appearing. Hopefully I won't run into any problems later. Glad to have the range values back!

[bobbin]

Don't worry it happens to the best of us, glad to hear your problem is solved

Downloadlink is down, can anybody re-upload it? (if it works for rtw.exe yet)

[bobbin]

New link put up.

[Skoran]

I downloaded it and put it into my EB/Data/text folder

But now instead of a description it says: Undefined placement text.
I use rtw.exe

Edit: When I look at the filefront link it says the document should be 1.89 mb, when I download it its only 1.3mb. Maybe something went wrong when uploading it?
I tried download it 3 times, its always 1.3mb.

[bobbin]

Seems filefront replaced my file with a completely different one of the same name, put a new link up which should work.

[Skoran]

It works now, thx man, amazing mod :)

[Laza]

Any news about the next version, bobbin?

[bobbin]

Haven't done much work on it due to the sunny days and being away on holiday but i'll give you a little example of what you'll see in the next version.

As you can see there a bit more info like lethality, morale, attack value of secondary weapon and attributes. Also bear in mind that some of these values will change with blacksmith upgrades and experience (attack values and i think morale) which is impossible to show using descriptions.

Right now I've just finshed the Celtic units and about to start on the Dacian ones.

[Poppis]

Just installed this mod for my ongoing Romani campaign. I've always been annoyed that the missile ranges didn't show in-game. Will look forward for any new updates.

Edit: One thing that would be nice to see is whether the unit has AP weapons or not. Thats probably the next most annoying thing after range that doesn't show in the vanilla game.

[king of thracia]

Great mod btw.

[lonewolf209]

great mod. I absolutely love it. Is there any news on the new version talked about so much?

[bobbin]

Sorry I never got round to finishing it and now that i'm doing EB2 my time is spent elsewhere, I could post up what I did so far if you like.

About that...say I install v0.2 of this mod, yeah...and tomorrow you come out with v0.3. By overwriting old version with new version, will my game still be fine or is this one of those cases where game is no longer save game compatible? Thank you.

question:
if I edit/change some values in the EDU file, it will appear on the info card? ex i change range from 187 to 200 meters...

No, that's independent text. You would have to alter it yourself.

[Jacke]

Jirsys, does the Unit Info Card Mod work with your Mega Mod Pack?
