Banners on buildings?

[wlesmana]

I think rebel flags are specified in desc_banner or something like that. Each faction get a specific rebel banners, depending on a region's original ownership (not the region they currently hold).

Sprites? For banners or units? 'cause banners don't use sprites.

PS. You speak indo? :)

Well, when I zoom out from the gatehouse, I can see the old Macedonian flag (with the lambda - the vanilla one), but when I zoom in my new Macedonian flag (the one I have now listed in the text file you pointed me too) shows up. A different one. So either it's using a sprite or it's somehow 'programmed' into a file somewhere what the flags look like at distance. I don't know how it works really, but that's clearly what is happening.

Nah, don't know indo, but remember a little Malay. I think that was the same phrase in Malay too.

try models_buildings/TEXTURES/ ##STANDARD_FACTION textures.

Yeah, those are the ones I have changed - and indeed they do work. Just a quick glance at this image will show that I have changed the Macedonian ones here to have their star instead of a lambda:



*But* if you look closely, on the image on the left, you can see that while the new ones are visible on the far left side of the tower, even the same flag turns to the old orange lambda when it's viewed from an angle more. You can see the lambda on the outer wall flag on top of that tower.

You can also see the "tall" flags that hang down are the new ones (on the left), but if I zoom out, they revert back to the old ones. I've zoomed in and you can see what happens.

So what gives there? How are these old ones showing up still? Anyone know?
