Air Forces
A BTS module conversion of the air force component of my previous warlord mod. Inspired from TheLopez Airforces Mod, it include 60+ planes, 6 new unit types and more air promotions.
zipped as a module, it can be used alone, but it is designed to be added by modders in modpack.
-- Installation instructions --
extract directly into to your "...\Sid Meier's Civilization 4\Beyond the Sword\Mods\your_mod_name" folder.
default configuration give ethnic air style for vanilla BTS, but some Arstyles are included in a zip files, you'll just have to do some copy/paste to make civ specifics air forces. (you can extract them directly in the zip's folder to test, but then you won't see other ethnic units in game)
all units artdefines are XML-ed and ready to use
all planes are animated, and have been rescaled using nifviewer when needed.
modular XML loading must be set ON in the INI file, see the "How to Use Plug and Play Mods" by purplexus for complete installation instruction of modules.
Please use the thread here for any question or bug report.
