Mercenaries (Modular)

[strategyonly]

Just was bored and put this together, hope you'll like it.

A mercenary is a person who takes part in an armed conflict who is not a national or a party to the conflict and "is motivated to take part in the hostilities essentially by the desire for private gain and, in fact, is promised, by or on behalf of a Party to the conflict, material compensation substantially in excess of that promised or paid to combatants of similar ranks and functions in the armed forces of that Party".

If there are some good suggestions on how to change units and stuff, just ask.

once again a creative execution. Organizing these various civs in a cohesive manner
is artistic indeed.

Thx, i thought no one way paying attention, so many many thx.

I like the machine gun in back of the pickup truck!!

This is a good civ, I am using it as sort of a quasi vandal, barbarian civ.

thanks!

I have downloaded this one, but I cannot get it to load no matter what I do.
(had the same issue with some viking mod too)

1. Added the mod/folder.
2. Edited _civ4config.ini to hardset the mod.
3. Cleared cache etc.
4. Tried loading it through advance.

It just will not show up no matter what I do although the XML loads fine with no errors.

Grey Germany (the Nazi mod with 4 leaders) does work for me. BtS 3.17

Could it be this just doesn't work with the 3.17 BtS? or am I doing something wrong.

Oh and yay first post is a whiney "help me" post.

ahahah, i like whiney posts, and Welcome to CFC.

All of the civs i make are compatible to 3.17, none of which have a dll.
Make sure you put the civ in "(Your mod name)"/Assets/Modules/Custom Civilizations/"(Heres where to put the civs)"Mercenaries

The folders HAVE to be just like above or will not work, i hope this helps, and thx again for asking.

btw: Now over 225 downloads since May 08, THX.

 

[Spankyfart]

Oooh that's excellent, no need to load them either I see.
I didn't have those custom folders, nor was that explained in the sticky.

I suspect these folders are never there (I just reinstalled Civ after hardcoding a new civ and failing miserably)

Cheers m8, much appreciated.
Only thing missing is you saying, "I'm so bored I'll help you create a civilization"


Added a picture, for other people that wanted to know what path to create to make it work.
Does this mean this works for any modular civ without loading it every time?

Yes just put in any civ in the folder Custom Civilizations like Mercs and you can play any civ (that is modular) of course.

See my Vampire Civ in my sig and look at post # 10, it explains there what to do, and if more or you cant get it to work, just ask again, ok, and thx for asking this time.

 

[troytheface]

thank you.

i stumbled on that thread while trying to figure something out

it is basically- BTS- Mods- (Mod Name) - Assests-Modules-New Civilizations

or....... you can just cram it in an exsisting mod under that mod's "custom civilizations" folder

however, great mod, thanks again

Thx for the heads up, yeah FileFront changed their accounts around again without telling anyone they did it, AGAIN.

 

[ddogg77]

This used to be a stand alone civ, but now seems to be contracted units? Is this correct? If so, how do I make them a stand alone civ again as I see no art or units in the download?

Its working now, and again thx for letting me know!! They erased the civ one, but i got it up and working now.

Download link seems to be broken. Any chance you still have the graphics for these? I'm working on a mercenary thing of my own for Fall from Heaven 2.
