| − | ==How to edit the file==
| |
| − | ===Changing textures(.tga files)=== | |
| − | | |
| − | İf you have only a texture file which needs to be changed, go to the texture file of your Unit:
| |
| − | | |
| − | Example:
| |
| − | | |
| − | type barb_scythian_noblewoman
| |
| − | skeleton fs_hc_archer, fs_hc_swordsman
| |
| − | indiv_range 40
| |
| − | '''texture seleucid, data/models_unit/textures/AR_unit_persian_median_cavalry.tga'''
| |
| − | model_flexi_m data/models_unit/AR_unit_persian_median_cavalry_lod1.cas, 8
| |
| − | model_flexi_m data/models_unit/AR_unit_persian_median_cavalry_lod1.cas, 15
| |
| − | model_flexi data/models_unit/AR_unit_persian_median_cavalry_lod1.cas, 30
| |
| − | model_flexi data/models_unit/AR_unit_persian_median_cavalry_lod1.cas, max
| |
| − | model_sprite scythia, 60.0, data/sprites/scythia_barb_scythian_noblewoman_sprite.spr
| |
| − | model_tri 400, 0.5f, 0.5f, 0.5f
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''And change it to the name of your .tga file:'''
| |
| − | | |
| − | texture seleucid, data/models_unit/textures/'''your unit.tga'''
| |
| − | | |
| − | NOTE: Although the actual file name for your texture will be '''your unit.tga.dds''' you must not include the .dds part in the DMB file, it will cause a CTD!
| |
| − | | |
| − | don't forget to put the texture file into the textures folder in data/models_unit/textures
| |
| − | | |
| − | But notice that the texture file must match with the model file,if not,you will get an Unit like an Alien
| |
| − | | |
| − | İf there is no texture file,create one
| |
| − | | |
| − | This changes the Skin of the Unit now
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | ===Now how to change the Unit completely===
| |
| − | | |
| − | Now you need to change the models and textures.They are marked here bold:

| |
| − | model_flexi_m data/models_unit/AR_unit_persian_median_cavalry_lod1.cas, 15
| |
| − | model_flexi data/models_unit/AR_unit_persian_median_cavalry_lod1.cas, 30
| |
| − | model_flexi data/models_unit/AR_unit_persian_median_cavalry_lod1.cas, max'''
| |
| − | model_sprite scythia, 60.0, data/sprites/scythia_barb_scythian_noblewoman_sprite.spr
| |
| − | model_tri 400, 0.5f, 0.5f, 0.5f
| |
| − | | |
| − | Change the model_flexi and models_flexi_m to the model file(.cas) which you want.
| |
| − | | |
| − | And of course the texture like posted before.
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''Change the models and textures to this:'''
| |
| − | | |

| |
| − | skeleton fs_hc_archer, fs_hc_swordsman
| |
| − | indiv_range 40

| |
| − | model_tri 400, 0.5f, 0.5f, 0.5f
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | İf you changed the name to your models(.cas) and your texture(.tga) file then you need to put
| |
| − | your models into data/models_unit and texture to data/models_unit/textures folder
