Is there a way to change the look of old enslaved worker units to upgrade their look once industrial age is reached? I tried this, but it didn't work.

#ANIMNAME_PRTO_Enslaved_Worker_ERAS_Industrial_Age
POW
#ANIMNAME_PRTO_Enslaved_Worker_ERAS_Modern_Era
POW

POW is the unit I use for captured workers in Industrial and Modern era.
 
Wouldnt you need a different unit name under the 'ANIMNAME' since this tells the game what folder to look for the animations? The name ingame should still be the same since the editor defines that.

Also further down in the file you can change the unit icon for the next era unit.
 
Enslaved Worker is the Civ3 Conquest unit graphic for workers captured, the look can pass in Ancient and Middle Eras, but when I reach the Industrial age it doesn't look right

I added Shirokobbure's POW unit to use when Industrial/Modern workers are captured and it worked.

But Enslaved Worker units carried over from Ancient/Middle Eras remain the same look when I enter Industrial Era, I want them to automatically change to POW units once industrial age is reached, hope that makes sense.
 
If you're using the default captured worker as the base "Captured Unit" I believe the PediaIcons should read:

#ANIMNAME_PRTO_Worker_SLAVE
Enslaved Worker
#ANIMNAME_PRTO_Worker_SLAVE_ERAS_Industrial_Age
POW
#ANIMNAME_PRTO_Worker_SLAVE_ERAS_Modern_Era
POW


and Worker selected as the "Captured Unit" on the General Settings tab.

If you're using a new type of unit as the "Captured Unit", such as Enslaved Worker, what you had should work, but Enslaved Worker, or whatever you're calling it, would have to be selected on the General Settings tab.

#ANIMNAME_PRTO_Enslaved_Worker
Enslaved Worker
#ANIMNAME_PRTO_Enslaved_Worker_ERAS_Industrial_Age
POW
#ANIMNAME_PRTO_Enslaved_Worker_ERAS_Modern_Era
POW


I have a similar setup as this and don't have any problems with the graphic change. You'll also need:

#UNITICON_PRTO_Enslaved_Worker_ERAS_Industrial_Age
XXX
#UNITICON_PRTO_Enslaved_Worker_ERAS_Modern_Era
XXX


under the "Era-Specific Unit icons" section.
