Importing RTW units into BI

[Zarax]

Has anyone tried it with success?
I would like to make a MOD gradually porting RTW to BI, but having no RTW modding skills yet (used to be a MTW modder) I figured that starting small would be much better.

If possible, could anyone post a step-by-step way to import RTW units into BI?

Thanks

Ok, I was able to figure how to import the unit into BI, there's only one thing that escapes me yet: how do I import the unit card?

Never mind, I found the unit cards tutorial... Everything works fine in custom battles, will begin campaign test shortly.

[Zarax]

Yes, it works!
And now, thanks to BI hoplites behaves like they should! (imho)

has anyone tired to get BI units into RTW?

imagine hounds of whatever for british

It shouldn't be too problematic, maybe there can be some incompatible unit tags but nothing impossible to overcome...

Hi there

How did you do it?

Do you need to add the description from export_descr_unit and then the model and sprites?

Thanks

There's a tutorial on importing new units into RTW that can be used to pass units from RTW to BI, works fine.

Thanks very much Zarax sounds great.

Could you show me where this tutorial is?
