    I've sent a message for collaboration to a person you might know ;)

    So it'll probably be quiet here until i get a response. I'm working on unrelated projects too.

    That's good to know, YanBG. I wish I could help but right now we only get 2 hours of electricity per day. Things are pretty bad, and I have been struggling with my own mod. Hope that "person" agrees to help.

    I could give that a go if you have some idea of the type/style of shields and weapons needed, and I can easily run some through the ReadBIF coordinates system. As for black spots, I've never seen them on the actual sprites, only icons...

    Yes i meant the unit icons(for buildings might go with purpgrab). Do you add beige background to yours?

    Your skils are probably better used for that actually.

    I'll wait a bit more for feedback until i make final renders of all units and animations.

    I'll give those two a try - the LBMs shouldn't be any trouble, but it will need ReadBIF for the reviewpanel icons - might require some fine surgery, but I'll see what I can do.

    Awesome work! They seem a bit blurred, i'll reduce the anti-aliasing when rendering next.

    Sorry guys, the Huszar unit is not available in campaign... i understood they are available for hungarians only in serbia? Even though i built everything in serbia all buildings available, I cannot still train them... what are their requiriments in campaign? Are they only mercenaries? Where and how to get them?

    Second thing is that hussars are missing unit icons... how to fix it?

    I did have plans for a lot of units(moslty MTW2 designs) but i haven't worked on the mod since february last year. It would have been ideal to have someone helping with the technical work like figuring the coordinates(i didn't ask because the graphics weren't final) but now i can upload my bifplates, for others to use.

    I cannot find boyar foot unit...
    Do you mean DruzhinaFoot? Or the russian archer type(would be Dvor Infantry)? I haven't released this one yet.

    My bad, it seems i forgot to edit the region specific field(51 in GnomeEditor). You can either change it to ID_SERBIA(and some others) or leave it empty to be trained everywhere:

    I don't have time to work on it

    @Leith with 10 months delay, here are the spritesheets, sorry about that! Not all animations are done but you can see that i was adding light(slinger), heavy infantry and handgun/crossbow. I have some of them in bifplates too, also the renders in separate images for each frame but it would have been 25mb more to download: http://www.mediafire.com/file/wwk5wk...1/MTW.rar/file

    Actually you'll need the actionpages too, the way all sprites have the same arrangement means you can reuse the coordinates atleast. I just figured today that if dying is last(to the right) can occupy more pixels and have taller rectangle. So let me know if you have ideas to improve or find out something!

    Cheers, YanBG! These bifs look awesome! I have downloaded both files. I am afraid I'm not that good when it comes to figuring out the weapon and shield co-ordinates. Mascen Rufus or Axalon can figure this out easily however. Meanwhile I will give this my best shot, though I'm not that optimistic. Your art style is quite special if I may add, YanBG.

    Welp Tyberius didn't reply to me, so there won't be nice weapons for these units.

    That's ok @Leith don't worry! You guys are keeping my interest to modding

    I wanted to fit in with the original, just fill the CUSTOM spots, that way i won't have to make 40+ bifplates. And also maybe get included into other mods..Redux

    Ok so if we have ~50 bifplates that means 250/50=5, each bifplate need to be used by 5 units. Not a small amount(some 6, others 3-4), so we have to keep the weapons&shields separated.

    How can I convert png icons to LBM in order to have the unit icons work in battle instead of black hole?

    Can I put a new unit made by a modder in the files together with this unit mod already installed? keep both mod files and keep both the unit packs together working having all the unit working while both the unit mods enabled? sorry for bad eng

    I'm not sure, maybe GIMP can save as LBM. Check this topic for PurpGrab

    You'll have to merge them in CRUSADERS_UNIT_PROD11.txt since each campaign can have only one such file

    Thanks, I merged geonese crossbowmen donwloaded from a different mod and merged copy paste on CRUSADERS UNIT PROD11 but unfortunately it says error when I launch the game: "ukwnown unit type encountered, column 2 row 37"


    I did put all textures and stats on proper folders for enable the unit but on the crusaders unit prod11 file when i paste "genoese crossbowmen" with all the stats already well written in columns even factions and eras and all informations are right, so why have this error message? can't launch the game :(

    You'll need to learn how to edit CRUSADERS_UNIT_PROD11 start with copying an existing unit and then changing the name/stats yourself instead of taking it from another mod. Take only graphics not data. If you fix that, last you need to add the unit's description in language folder(Eng).

    Maybe the name "genoese crossbowmen" is too long and it goes into column 2, why is for type(e.g. infantry). Do you place it on row 37? Or that's the next unit?

    I'm starting practising, I managed to fix the error and run the game, now genoese crossbowmen the new unit appear as icon in recruitment list, i can recruit it with all stats, descriptions, icon unit and stats and it's all good... only one problem... when I load the battle with the new unit the game crash and it says "failed to load textures" or something like that but i already put all the textures to the folders why the battle won't start?

    Now I fixed that... the only problem left is that even though the unit appear in recruitment list in campaign as custom battle, with all descriptions, stats, names etc. unfortunately if i load a battle with that unit unfortunately the game crashes and i can't use it in battles it says failed to load textures. How to fix that?

    Hello! I have tried to get the weapons co-ordinates right and failed. I hope someone else will try getting them right because it would be a real shame not to use these beautiful textures in MTW mods.
