GJ Hunter, pls create A LOT of WWII units

I will make a few needed WW2 skins but I am moving to my new house this weekend so more to come after that.

The screenshots look great, but how do you load these?

Well you have wo options:
1) copy the origonal file with the same name to a new location then place the new file in the proper folder. Example:
Firaxis Games\Sid Meier's Civilization 4\Assets\Art\units\infantry\Infantry_128.dds

2) create a mod foder in:
Firaxis Games\Sid Meier's Civilization 4\Mods
Create the folders for units:
Firaxis Games\Sid Meier's Civilization 4\Mods\My CIV\Assets\Art
Copy the unit from the origonal location and replace the .dds file.
This way you can load the unit with the mod.
Remeber if you want a new unit you will need to edit several .xml files. (I can list them if you would like.

Did you just modify the skins with Photoshop/PSP ? Or do you use another program ?

You can convert the .dds file to any workable image format, then use any type of graphic editor to mod the skins. I use GIMP. It's free and great.

Hunter, good job, your info helped a lot. could you list the xml files to edit to add new units. Do I need an xml editor, if so which is best. thanks, tex

Jak08 how do you convert the .dds to a workable image. From what I understand GIMP is the graphic editor what program do you use to convert the .dds files.

Cheers!

Back from a dead computer I give you two new unit skins:
Highlander (seen in this post) and my new and improved swordsman!

Swordsman mark 2 :ninja:

woodelf · Dec 7, 2005

The Highlander will do nicely in several mods I'm sure. Nice work Hunter.

Agraza · Dec 7, 2005

both of the swordsmen are really cool man

Tommy1234567890 · Dec 8, 2005

the first one looks like a scottish guy with the plad kilt

WildWeazel · Dec 8, 2005

umm.... that's because it is a Scottish guy with a plaid kilt.

Penitent · Dec 13, 2005

Could you make the shoulder pads for the highlander leather or metal please? they ruin it for me, otherwise I'd use them.

Zuul · Dec 16, 2005

Hunter, never let anyone forget that 'twas YOU who made the first C4 units. Excellent work on that last swordsman, I might add!

*Clicky!*
