I'm trying to update Units.artdef file using old school with .dep and <Modart> thing, but can't succeed so far. Is it still even possible? Or I am forced to download 36GB of Assets for ANY changes to artdefs?

Structure:
ArtDefs/Units.artdef
Data/Data.xml
Data/Icons_Slavery.xml
Slavery.dep
Slavery.modinfo

Units.artdef
I've just copied Scout unit's artdef and replaced UNIT_SCOUT with my unit
