Added a custom leaderhead but now her skin is purple!?!

Okay, so I added Joan of Arc to my game, using this graphic pack:

http://forums.civfanatics.com/downlo...o=file&id=4659

I did all the XML editing, the game works fine, she has text, the only problem is that the the leaderhead's skin is a neon purple.

I figure I must be missing a file or something.

Two questions.

First, I know that Joan is based of Catherine. I can't find Catherines Leaderhead folder anywhere on my computer (in the XML i just copied the location into Joans, could that be causing the purple?) Where are Catherine's files?

Second, does anyone have experience using this graphic pack? What files do I need from Catherine's folder, assuming I can find it? (Besides the animation).

This might help, it's how she appears in my game currently:

The leaderhead files are all pakked, kind of like a zip file, and you need a program called "PakBuild" to extrack the art files. This is also true of pretty much any Firaxis art file including units, buildings, etc.

I downloaded the Joan Of Arc LH you pointed to and it does not include all the necessary files (it needs the original Catherine LH files as you suspected). I think you have done the XML properly otherwise it would not have shown up at all in game. Anything purple on a LH, unit, building, etc usually indicates a missing art file.

However, instead of trying to explain the whole process of unpakking art files to you, here is a complete version of that Joan of Arc LH with all the necessary files.

[EDIT] Didn't hear back from you so I removed the download. PM me if you still need it.

Let me know when you have it downloaded and working so that I can delete the file from the CivFanatics servers.

Idea, does your machine support shaders?
(is your graphics card above minimum specs?)
