    I've been busy over the last 24 hours. I've tried editing the DDS files with PSP with the DDS PlugIn to make the 'Corinthian' Spartans but it doesn't seem to be saving right.

    Also, you remember the original Woad Warriors the Britons had, with the polearm-esque weapon? I've unlocked them and added them to the British - Celtic Warriors I've called them for now. I've also added Skirmishers for the Britons, and put them on chariots also, but unfortunately they can't throw javelins. I once managed to get the Head Hurlers on chariots which was hilarious but it didn't look right - they guy at the front kept running forward. Nubian guys on elephants look pretty cool as well, but they have to shoot arrows which doesn't look right because they have spears and not bows. As I can't edit the DDS files at the minute the weapons and shields are still there for the time being.

    I might release these at some point if people want them.

    I'd like you to release this. I'm especially interested in how you get them to ride chariots.

    It's a shame it's still the grey peasant in the info pic. Excellent work though!

    Nice screenies BKB. I also remember seeing some different eastern units in time commanders. I remember one being some type of Armenian or Arab Slinger with green clothing on with some purple decorations on the outfit and also the Armenian general that look different too. ( not like the persian one in game that Armenian general skin is using ) Was from the Time commander episode "Tigranocerta"


    the more units with different skins/models with attributes the better. Greed!! Greed!! Greed!!

    Could someone come out with a diffinitive guide to changing
    Cavalry, Infantry, and otherwise?
    I tried it but screwed up (backups, ah, backups)
    Also maybe a tool that you plug in the stats you want, for the export file, and the descr file.

    I ask because it's usually something like that which causes outbursts like this, needless to say I dissagree completely.

    DJ: Don't quote images, we've already seen them (if able to). And as others say, it's not funny for 56kers.


    I can't see any of these units :(

    I can see m fine. And good work everyone! I'm trying to use the Paint Shop pro, and I can open every thing fine. But how can I copy and paste a portion of one thing onto another? I can't figure it out, so I can't put the shirt on one dude on another, which needs to be done so the Germans and Scythians aren't freezing in the snow!

    I use Photoshop, so it might be different. I just copy the shirt portion from one file and paste it onto the other, sure, its makes a new layer, but it all flattens out when you save as a TGA.
