Turning roman rebels into Arabs

[Bernhard of Clairvaux]

Hi

I have come as far as to being able to change empire_east_rebels to a playable faction from start. The goal is to turn them into an Arab faction by using Berber set up. I have managed to give the characters Arabic names but I can´t give the units an "Arab look".

I tried to make changes in descr_model_battle but it does not work (ie I tried to give give the rebels the berber tga.s). The units are just grey peasants and the game will crash when going to battle.

Has anyone any idea what to do?

that would be because skinning is messed up, and descr_model_Battle.

i would reccomend you start from scratch and enable berber units for your faction, and look through descr_model_Battle and show_err...

good luck

I fixed enabling Berber units so they show during battle. The unit cards are still grey peasants though. What could be done to fix that given the fact that I want them to look like the regular Berber ones?

If you wan to get proper "eastern feeling" :) changed culture entry for eastern rebels in descr_sm_factions to "carthaginian" or "eastern" (make sure you also removed "shadowed by" line).Berbers/Eastern Unit cards in UI folder need to be copy /past to eastern rebels

also, you can then look around in descr_model_battle and descr_model_strat to then modify the captains and generals, along with horses etc...

good luck

Thanks for the help

As I found out the Moors are already there with pics and all. All you have to do is copy the units pic and insert the roman rebel folder. Really easy.
