Adding units, this is getting confusing...

[vanrotc]

Hey all, I hope you all are doing well. Civ IV is kinda winding down on the excitement area, so I started looking at unit graphics, mod components, graphic modpacks, and things of the sort. I have been asking for months now on how to add a unit to Civ IV, but so far I have had no luck. I've read Rabbit White's 'Adding new units in 6 easy steps', and Sovarn's guide as well. I am still confused on it though. Can any1 please tell me what to do to add something like this..

I am running Civ IV Vanilla. V 1.73


Thanks all!!

[TUT] Adding newly created units to Civ4 in 6 "easy" steps and GUIDE: Adding new units, and after that I was able to add units without major complications.

Took me a while to figure out that most of the buttons from units I downloaded didn't work because they were 128 x 128 (I don't know why, made for BtS maybe) and I also used some hours figuring out how to link to units graphics correctly in my mod.

However, after some trouble, I felt I had a much better overview. Like mass production, the first unit took me all night, the next were 20 minutes a piece.

So, I suggest that you simply ask away about the things that confuse you.
