changing units

[sa_bandeira]

I need some little push!

I transferred some units in the original RTW
Example: Iberian Infantry to the Julii

But…

I wanted that, when I played by the Julii the Iberian Inf would appeared with the Spanish skin, but they appear with the carthagian.

I changed the desc_model_battle.txt in the textures and in the sprites, like this:

type carthaginian_infantry ; combat spear
skeleton fs_swordsman
indiv_range 40
texture carthage, data/models_unit/textures/unit_carthage_infantry.tga
texture spain, data/models_unit/textures/unit_carthage_infantry_spain.tga
HERE - texture romans julii, data/models_unit/textures/unit_carthage_infantry_spain.tga
texture slave, data/models_unit/textures/unit_carthage_infantry_rebel.tga
model_flexi data/models_unit/unit_carthage_infantry_high.cas, 15
model_flexi data/models_unit/unit_carthage_infantry_med.cas, 30
model_flexi data/models_unit/unit_carthage_infantry_low.cas, 40
model_flexi data/models_unit/unit_carthage_infantry_lowest.cas, max
model_sprite slave, 60.0, data/sprites/slave_carthaginian_infantry_sprite.spr
model_sprite spain, 60.0, data/sprites/spain_carthaginian_infantry_sprite.spr
AND HERE - model_sprite romans julii, 60.0, data/sprites/spain_carthaginian_infantry_sprite.spr
model_sprite carthage, 60.0, data/sprites/carthage_carthaginian_infantry_sprite.spr
model_tri 400, 0.5f, 0.5f, 0.5f

but they still appear with the Carthaginian skins!
What did I wrong?
I still haven’t found the answer in the forums.

There should be an underscore between the romans and the julii, like this: romans_julii

Ave Myrddraal! Those who are learning to mod salute you!
And I can’t believe I didn’t notice the underscore!
Thanks!
(Myrddraal? That sounds like a Phoenician name!)

Its from the books the Wheel of Time. Check out the mod

I have a question which is similiar.
I wish to add triarii to militia barracks but were should I change? Is it only in the export_descr_buildings.txt file or anyother file too?

[Myrddraal]

Only in export_descr_buildings.txt

Just add it to the unit list for that buliding

Good luck, and welcome to the forums
