Ekmek's Civ4 Leaderhead Gallery

Ekmek, I LOVE the Stonewall Leaderhead! The only problem I am having is finding a button for it! I've sifted through the forums and found a couple replies about it, but did not see any file attachments to download.

Also, I cannot get a Confederate flag to work as a button for a civ, nor in Gameplay.

I have read tutorials for leaderheads, creating civs, units, flags, etc. and spend several hours trying to figure out a few of these little details. I'm happy to say at one point I had a playable CSA civ, but then I must have gotten a little too experimental and the game crashed when I tried to start a custom game.

Currently, I've successfully added the following to K-Mod: Stonewall Brigade, made a few small XML changes, and added the Stonewall Leaderhead (3D animated works perfectly, but I have been using the button from Charlemagne since I don't have a Stonewall one). I wasn't able to get my CSA Civ mod to work when trying to merge it with K-mod (it has ceased functioning on it's own as well :p). However, I decided to simply add Stonewall to the Holy Roman Empire and add the new unit and make a couple changes, essentially incorporating the main things I wanted in the CSA civ I had in mind.

I've had a little experience editing XML files from AoE2 and 3, as well as a couple other games. I'm happy with what I have at the moment, but I'd really appreciate it if I could get a working Stonewall button, CSA flag button, and CSA flag .dds in game. I've tried the 128x128 with stretching 25% and setting the alpha channel and all that, according to the tutorials, but no luck.

Hope you all are doing well, and thank you so much for all your work in modding this awesome game! It really is amazing how much this stuff can improve the experience of playing Civ!

Edit: I have a couple clarification points. This is all for BtS and I do have the vanilla and Warlords as well. Secondly, I have tried downloading some of the Confederate civs from the site, but the download links I have tried are dead. Otherwise I would have used the bits and pieces from those and plugged them into the Art defines.
 
Sorry, I haven't had Civ4 on my computer in 6 years. I recommend getting GIMP and making abutton. I guess I never did a button for that one. but it should be easy. just get a button from another mod, open it in gimp then take a screenshot of the in game leader and use gimp to resize it and make it fit the button and save it as a dds.

If the playable civ crashed your art should still be good. it might be easier to get any playable civ mod, and then just start editing that xml so it works.

sorry I couldn't help more
 
Anyone have the Trung Sisters leaderhead?
 
Can anyone upload Ekmek's Pilsudski LH? Or know of a still-available mod that I can find it in?

I think I have it somewhere, but can't find it ATM.
Will check it on my older computer too, but I won't be near that for a couple weeks.
Hopefully someone will upload the LH by then.

Reupload of Ekmek's Benito Juarez leaderhead, apologies if this is the wrong place to do it

- apologies, i had to ... upload it in bits. One of the textures is 4000kb+, so maybe there's room for a bit of editing
