How to turn a merc into a normal unit?

[FactionHeir]

Umm so if you just want HRE to be able to build them, I'm not quite sure why you are working with textures.

Anyway, go the EDU and add HRE to the list of factions to which it is available if its not currently listed.

Then in the EDB, copy/paste a line for French Pikemen (Pikemen) into the building where you want to be able to hire the unit of your choice. Then rename the reference name Pikemen into the name of your unit. Now it is hirable at this building in your campaign.

i think what he was trying to do was make the landscheckts also have the yellow/black atire. they already have this in the texutre, so if you find the proper folder and change it in the model they will look like a hre unit. dont forgot to edit the EDU, EDB thou like stated above.

The unit is called Landsknecht, there that wasn't so hard, was it (although I know 99.74% of English native speakers can't pronounce it properly anyways)?

Bleh ! The proper word is "Lansquenet", actually. It's obviously proper cause it's French, see ?

Well not as hard as "Landsknecht Doppelsöldner".

actualy i speak full german and so so english, im just lazy to spell it proper- that and I dont care- to spell it proper. The point of the post was still there, unlike now in that the whole point for this thread is lost.
