First off, thanks to lemmy101 for your great work on this!
Now on to the question - does anyone else get a spearman after starting up the mod? I'm pretty sure I'm using the right process (3ds Max w/ FBX exporter), but every time it comes up as the spearman.
If you're following this tutorial by the letter with the latest ModBuddy you'll need to set VFS to true. If you click a file in ModBuddy to the right there should appear a little settings-window. There you can set a option VFS to true.
If you're interested what that "actually" does I've no idea. The description makes me think you can load any files with the same name and replace them in Civ 5 but clearly that doesn't work
BTW, "Speamen" is usually the problem when the files didn't load properly but the unit is defined properly, so you might not need all files to have VFS to true, but I do that and there've been no problem so far. If there's actually some error in the unitmember-file for me the game can compeltly crash when I try to build that unit.
That was my problem, thanks! Now I have another problem though, my unit's mesh is all jacked up. I'll have to go through the export script from 3ds max I think to find what's wrong. Oh well, getting closer!
what's the purpose of an entirely new unit -- especially a dragon -- when your not going to give it special abilitys.
can someone please help me, whenever I import an asset into nexus all it shows is a blank blue screen? I used civilization 4 mod units and converted them via blender to an fbx but it simply won't load in nexus... help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.
anyone know what happened to the pictures in the OP?
The links in the OP don't seem to be working so I've attached the IndieStone-files I've got. Both the importer and something called NexusAnimFix. I remember installing that fix but Firaxis' patches have probably undone whatever it did.
Anyway, the IndieStoneNexusBuddy.exe goes in the sid meier's civilization v sdk\Nexus\x86-folder. Whatever problem anyone have experienced I have not. It've all worked for me for almost a year.
