Roman Ingenuity Mod

[Epistolary Richard]

You may be interested in some of the tutorials on the Scriptorium, such as this one that covers adding new units including unit cards. There are others about battle graphics.

Thanks. Thats exactly what I needed. I should have a working beta within a couple of days.

BTW The tutorial did not mention anything about banners. I assume the unit banner in the battle map is determined by the faction that controls the unit. Am I wrong?

[Epistolary Richard]

For the larger, hovering banner - that's correct. The smaller ones carried by standard bearers is a part of their skin.

Thats OK.

I've changed all the files and am now able to start the game without crashing. I still need to do some testing but I should have the mod ready withing a few days.

PS: Can anyone tell me how I upload files to this forum?

I just hit a major problem: When I attack a Gallic town, the game crashes with the error message that 8 items were undeleted.

I'm gonna try again with some mod utilities to see if it's just Typo problems with my editing. Most likely, It's a problem with the export_desc_buildings.txt file. I will edit it with Hadrian editor and see if I can resolve the problem.


QUESTIONS: If I just add the "roman, " faction in a particular unit's texture and sprite entry in the desc_model_battle.txt file, will it work? If not, can I add an entry pointing to the original faction's folder? Also, do my files have to be unpacked for the options above to work?
