I want to put a new unit into the game, can someone please give a detailed step by step to do this. Please don't post me other threads as the ones i have read make no sense to me at all.

Thanks:goodjob:

If this tutorial (http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=139721) doesn't make any sense then I doubt anyone else's step by step will be any better.

I know you didn't want a link, but this is the tutorial most people have used along with trial and error.

You can also try downloading a new civ mod where they add one new unit to the entire game and see what files they modified. I used this method with a Dutch civ over a year ago.

I need something thats says open this put that there because I don't know what half of it is
eg what is a Art0.fpk file?

If you're just adding a new unit you don't need to worry about Art0.fpk.

But if you want to unpack that file to have all of the art that comes with the game go to the Firaxis website. There's info there about how to unpack this massive file. Hopefully someone else can chime in more specifics since I unpacked about 18 months ago and don't recall exactly what I did.

I think there is an unpacker.. that is what I used at least. I got it for Sid Meier's Pirates, but it works for Civ 4 also as they are the same type of pak.

But don't ask me where I got it from sorry, it has been a while since I downloaded it..
